A Question Answered. "Why don't
you trade with me?" said a close-fisted
tradesman to a friend the other day. The
reply was characteristic "You have never
asked roc, sir. I have looked all through
the papers for an invitation, in the shape of
an advertisement, and found none. I never
go where I ain not invited."
A Rich Joke. Recently a would-be-sharp
young gentleman, went to the country
to teach a school. On arriving at his board
ing place, the man of the house was in the
yard making a hog trough, whom he accost
ed thus: :iMr. W., haven't you furniture
enouphyet?" "Oh, yes ; I have enough
ibr my own family, but as I expect to board -1
the school-master this winter, and, thinking
I might be a little short, I thought 1 woufd
make this." The young man blushed
"muchly,' but had nothing further to add.

Cittino Timber, The question is fre
quently asked : "When is tho time to cut
timber, so that the worms will not eat it?'
The following directions, by one who seems
to know, may contain the desired informa

"If music be the food of love, Play on,
give me excess ot it!" So exclaimed the
immortal bard, and who will not give him
right? And we would announce to all lov
ers of music that arrangements have been
perfected for a rich Dramatic and Musical
treat, to be given at the Court House, on
Tuesday evening, December 3d, by those
justly celebrated artistes, the Davie Troupe,
who will appear in a rich selection of Dra
matic pieces, laughable farces, comic and
sentimental singing, duetts, pantomimic
scenes, etc. The performances of this com
pany are very highly spoken of as being of
a chaste and interesting nature. The man
agement pledges himself that nothing in the
entertainment shall be presented that may
prove objectionable ; and hence we sincerely
trust they may be favored with a large and
appreciative audience.
