A
FUN.FACT&FANCY.
Erbxiy Las heard of Lewis Gay lord
Clark's patent "Hen-Persuader" ha Las
promised to show us one when we go to Pier-
jra&nt bnt everybody doesn't understand Its
principles-. It is an artificial nest, into which,
when a hen has dropped an egg, the substrat
xim gives way with a spring and then closes
again, leaving the hen egg-less. Of conrse,
the hen at once makes op the deficiency with
smother. The Springfield Republican, speak
.g of this -Clark-ly" contrivance, whereby
gjrs drop throngh a trap-door, tells tlio fol
lowing of one Biobbs, who had gone in largely
for the invention :
"Biobbs met with a loss, however, with one
of the pnrsuaders. Biobbs had a lovely young
Shanghai pnllet, f boundless ambitiou.
Biobbs bought a pursuadur, and his lovely
Shanghai used it. She went upon the nest in
the morning. Biobbs saw her go, and Lis heart
bounded within him! Alas! he never saw
her come ofl again. At night, he visited the
pursnader. In the upper compartment was a
handful of feaHiers, a few toe-nails, and a bill.
In the lower compartment were three dozen
and eleven eggs ! Biobbs saw it all ! Her del
icate constitution had been unequal to the ef
fort, and fired by young ambition, she had
laid herself all frray !'
Doesticks, the uni'iue, amusing, contributor
to the Detroit Advertiser, has invented a medi
cine. It is called "Doesticks" Patent, Self
Acting, Four Ilorse-Power Balsam."
He says it is designed to "cure all diseases
of the mind, body or estate, to give strength to
the weak, money to the poor, boots to the bare
footed, decency to blackguards, and common
sense to the Loco Focos. It acts physically,
morally, mentally, psycologically and geolog
ically, and it is intended to make our subluna
ry sphere a blissful paradise." Doesticks is
a blessing to his kind.
Whex Dr. Franklin was in Paris, hisdaugli
ter, Jlrs. Bache, wrote to him for a supply of
feathers and thread lace. The doctor declined
in the following characteristic note : "If you
wear your cambric ruffles as I do and take
care not to mend t he holes, they will come in
time to lace : and feathers, my dear girl, may
be had in America from every turkey's tail."
Ose of Gov. Slade's shool-ma'ams has got
into a place out West where the children nev
er heard prayer or preaching. So, one day,
w hen aha commenced her school with a prayer,
one of the youngsters went home and reported :
" You never did sco such a school-marm ! She
got down on her knees and swore with all her
might!"
Since Uncle Sam first turned coiner on his
own account, no less than eighteen hundred
tons of copper have been converted into cents,
making in all about one hundred and fifty
millions of peices, bearing upon one side the
effigy of Liberty, and upon the reverse, the
well-known legend, "One Cent."
A 'Western editor once apologized to his
readers somewhat after this fashion : "We in
tended to have a death and a marriage to pub
lish this week, but x violent storm prevented
the wedding; and tho doctor being taken sick
himself, the patient recovered, and wo are ac
cordingly cheated out of both."
The following is a genuine Hibernian ad
vertisement: "Missing from Killarney, Jane
O'Fogerty ; she had in her arms two babies
and a Guernsey cow, all black, with red lv.iir,
and tortoise-shell combs behind her cars, and
large black spots all clown her back, which
squints awfully."
Two country attorneys overtaking a wagon
er and thinking to crack a joke on him, asked
him why his fore horse was so fat anil the rest
so lean. The wagoner knowing them to be
"limbs of tho law," said : "That the fore horse
was a l.iwy-r and the rest were his clients."
The question has been asked, why it is con
sidered impolito for gentlemen to go into the
presence of ladies in their shirt-sleeves, while
it is considered in every way correct for the
ladies themselves to appear before gentlemen
without any sleeves at all.
An Irish gentleman having purchased ana
larm clock, an acquaintance asked Lira what
he intended to do with it. "Oh," sail he,
"it's the most convenient thing in the world ;
for I have nothing to do but to pull the siting,
and wake myself."
A Lafayette, Indiana, paper says that two
diamonds of the first water, one of the size of
a small pea and the other that of a grain of
wheat, was recently taken from an artesian
v wll in that vicinity.
A Pennsylvania court has decided that a
man who subscribed for a work to be publish
ed in three volumes is not bound to pay for a
fourth and fifth volume, to which the work ex
tends. As inscription upon one of the buildings in
Cincinnati on the occasion of the great rail
road celebration was: -A locomotive is the
only good motive for riding a man on a rail."
The woman who undertook to scour the
woods, has abandoned the job, owing to the
high price of soap suds. The last that was
heard of her she was skimmibg the seas.
A young man stepped into a bookseller's
shop and asked for a Young Man's Companion.
'Well, sir," said the bookseller, "there is
ray daughter."
"r. U , If you'll get my pants done by
Saturday, I shall be forever indebted to you."
"If that's your game they'll not be done,
sure," said the tailor.
Salt will expel worms, if used in food in
moderate degree, and aids digestion, but salt
meat is injurious, when used much.
1 Iu c4 of a bite from a mad dog, wash the
part with a strong brine for an hour, and then
fciad on some salt with a rag.
