? WIT AND HUMOR An exchange defines bluwhrbuss rs kissing the wrong cirl; ju<t as though it wrre possible lo be wrong in kissing * any girl. t # . ''Why did yen pass yesterday with- i out !o< kinz ot me?1' said a beautiful woman to Talieyr&nd. "Iiccauso, nia.. ,, dam. if I had looked I could not lr?vc passed." ? An Irish cricr. being order; d to clear the oourt room, did so hy#unn?'Uiniiig : "Now all you blackguards that are not lawyers, leave the court rooui at one--." "You need a little sun and air," said a physician to a maiden pati> tit, seeking his advice. "If I do," was the cute reply, "I'll have to wait till I get a husband." A MAN having absconded, one of his friends was asked the cause of bis disappearance. lie repli.d : "Why. 1 ?pprehciM that ho was apprehensive u! being apprehended." "IDIOT !*' crchiitnrJ a ladv coining out < f the theatre lusi cvoitu g. as a gen ttcnsnstrppd on her trailing skirt ''Which onecf tie?'' blandly responded the tr.au. - . The deliberations of die bachelors' club were brought to ? sudden and ignominious conclusion the other night, in umsrmienec of li e discovery of a hair pio chnging eoii5Jiujtly to th? coat cellar of tbc prcsiJwiit. A hot stood with bis hands in h's pockets one co'd morning, wutcbing the burning of his school In use, and after the novelty of (lie thing had ceased, he ran home, raying: ' I'tu glad the old thing is burned down, for I didn't git my jogrnphy lesson, no how."

Wonderful Trecs. aJT Travelers tell of many wonderful trees which they havi diseovcied in different parts oi the worhi. Near the p;reat mountains of the Andes there "rows a solitary tree, j The tree l.as leaves like leather. It is very tall, hut its roots scarcely do m ?re than lake ImM of the roclc on which i' grows. Of what use can it be? Let us watch ar.tl sec what happens. The sun is just rising, and people are goin^ to their work. A tr??op of white men and Indians are coming towards the tree. They carry bowls made of gourds, and tlicyr want some miik f<?r their breakfas# Where is the milk to cotne from,? Not from the cow. There are no cows to be seen. The milk will come from the tree. * This is v!iv i: is called the cow tree. How can milk come from a live? You must watch a little longer, ami see what the men <!o. They make a hole in the bark with their hatchets, anTl out flows a white juice like milk. They soon fill their bowls. Some of t!i<m will-sit down ami ilrit.k the milk.oflrat once. Others will carry it home for their chiMren. I?ut is it as nice as milk ? Yes. A famous traveler has toldus ro. His name is lluinbohlt. He drank the milk himself, and said it was very sweet ami wholesome. Another traveler saw the cow trees growing in the forest. The India rabbet tree is another "womTy-f.il and useful tree, which grows jn South America. Jt was hist found in India, hence its name. 0 ie of the rivers that run into the . * Amazon has some low, ilamji islands' in the middle of the stream. Jul 1 Ins tail y season these islands are covered with water, but when line I wcath-r comes again, limy get dry and pontile ran go out upon tluun. Hreal* forests grow ove? these i*Iu.ro ir is that the India i u! her frees arc fin this country we have so many tilings made (#1* India rubber, that it wo were to nninc them all it would be a very long list indeed. lhigs, cape, overshoes, cents and cloaks are all mada of it, besides tents and l'ln p. and even bri 'ges. Gutta perolu differs from rubber in s? me respects, but it is so much like it. nod serves so mmy purposes equally well. that it is 6cuktimes not distinguished from it. f?t Her tiers have also hern found ' in India and in A?r?eu. These j?r? tluee a >ccd from which, when boil.' id ufi excellent butter is obtained, which form# a principal article of lbs inland commerce of the inhabit- 1 ants. It will keep for many months' without the addition of salt, even in i tlmse warm climates. Then there is the bread fruit, a native of lite South Sea Islands and tnany parts of ti:e Indian Archipelago. The fruit is green, about; the size of a melon, containing two, or three nuts. Kut it is the ibshy' covering which is principally valued j by the natives, with whom it is a chief article of food. Thcv roast it. It is then white, tender and soft, j resembling the crumbs of a loaf. One of the most c urious is the i cannon tail tree, which grows to the, height of sixtv fceti and its llowers j arc remarkable for beauty an I Jia*! g?ance, being of a beautiful crim' J son, appealing in iarc bunches, and, giving out a rich perfume. It is a , native of Guinea, in Africa. The fruit resembles large cannon halls, hence its name; it also resembles a J cannon ball from the noise the ball' inukes in bursting. From the shell j domestic utensils are made, and the | contents contain sovc-iai kinds of I acids, besides sugar and gum, and i furnish the material fqg. making an i excellent drink in sickness. The cabbage palm is another wonderful tree from tlie Antilles. It is one hundred and thirty feet high, and its Jolty branches are most beautiful. Within the leaves which surround the trunk the cabbage lies concealed, composed of long flake | like ribbons, but ve-y close together! and solid. It is white, about tv.o or | three feet long, and as thick as a man's arm. When oaten raw it is like the almond in flavor, hut more tender and delicious. It is usually cut into pieces, boiled, and served as a vegetable with meat. c T!ic following incident i?1" the late lootId in France is as towdiiiig an il- { lustration of the power of si mother'.* love as ai v the books contain : At Castelzarraxin a young inolher took her two infants (twins at the breast), tied them together and placed theui in a large woolen trough used for kneading bread, and committed it to the waves, hoping that it would save her children'* lives, as she felt that her nouse was about to fall. The improvised boat swam safe!} for a time, but soon af>terward the current dadied it against the trunk of a tree, where it was broken. The poor woman, to whom maternal love gave a superhuman force, succeeded in Seizing a brunch and climbed into the tree. Hut it } was two weak ami began to crack ominously. She then rapidly tied the infants to a branch, kissed them, made the sign of the er< ss and leaped into the waves. Th? two " ' ' 1 1 A . 1 . 1 . Utile twins were Fared, ont tuc ?ie- j voted mother was drowned." J. W. Williams Respectfully call.i the Attention of the public lo lai4 Fall and Winter Goods.
