Although the "flush times " have pass

when he was astonished by the applica

" I say, stranger, I want one of theta
chambers."
" Sorry, sir," said the , official blandly,
!‘ hist our state-rooms are all takeu."

A-gentleman was praising thebeautiful
hair of a lady, when one of those terrible
children whom Providence seems to hay
sent on earth as scourges of hypocrisy ane
falsehood, exclaimed, " My hair would be

Mamma never sleeps in her hair, but al

she goes to bed." "
