Not any more
bummer for us, and no man must ever tell us how to save two shillings on a
meal.
HOW TO REACH YOUNG MEN.
"How to reach young men," was the topic at the young men's prayer meeting
on Thursday. An old gentleman on the East Side who broke a toe nail by
kicking the gate post just as the young man went down the sidewalk, would
also like to know. Bait your hook with a mighty good looking girl that
wears a sealskin cloak, and you can reach the young men.
CRUSHING NIHILISM.
The Russian government is making an average of four thousand arrests a day
of persons charged with nihilism. At this rate it is only a question of
time when the last of the conspirators will be in prison, and the emperor
can walk out without fear of assassination from his wife and children, as
these will probably be all the people that will be left.
WOMAN-DOZING A DEMOCRAT.
A fearful tale conies to us from Columbus. A party of prominent citizens
of that place took a trip to the Dells of Wisconsin one day last week. It
was composed of ladies and gentlemen of both political parties, and it was
hoped that nothing would occur to mar the pleasure of the excursion.
When the party visited the Dells, Mr. Chapin, a lawyer of Democratic
proclivities, went out upon a rock overhanging a precipice, or words to
that effect, and he became so absorbed in the beauty of the scene that he
did not notice a Republican lady who left the throng and waltzed softly up
behind him.
