A TEMPERANCE LECTURE.
At an Arbor bein seized with a sudden
faintness, I called for a drop of suthiD to drink
As I was stirrin the beveragoup, a pale faced
man in gold spectacles, laid his band on my
sheuldar and sed—
"Look not on the wine when it is red !"
Sez I, "This ain't wine. This is Old
Rye!"
"ft Btingeth like an Adder and biteth like
a serpentl " Sed the man.
"I guess not," sed 1, "when you put au
gar into it. "Thai's the way I allors take
mi ae."
"Wall," 1 replied, as I put myself outside
my beverage, "my son Artemus, jr., is going
on 18."
"Ain't you afraid if you set this example
b4 him he'll cum to a bad end ?"
"He's cum to a waxed end already. He'
learnin the shoemakin bizness," I replied. "1
guess we can both on us git along without
your assistance, sir," 1 observed, as he was
about to open his month agin.
"This is a cold world," 6ed the man.
"That's so. But yon'll git into a warm
one by and by, if you don't mind your own
bizincss better."
I was a little riled at the feller, becaws I
never take anything only when I'm on well-
I afterwards larned he was a temperance lec
turer, and if he can injuce men to stop settiu
their innards on fire, with "the frigntlul licker
which is retailed around the country, 1 shall
bartly rejice.
Better give man Prusic Assic at onct than
o pizen 'em to death by degrees Artemus

A CONTRABAND OPINION ON CLERICAL
CALLS. —A correspondent alluding to the fact
that most of the "call" which modern clergy
men feel so imperatively bound to obey, are
from comparatively low salaries to high ones,
says that these calls remind him of an honest
old negroe's anecdote. It was as follows :
A certain divine, having concluded to
change his pastorial situation, mentioned his
determination from the pulpit. After service
was over, an old negro, who was one of his
admirers, went up to him aDd desired to
know his motives in leaving his flock. The
parso answered, "He had a call."
"W:.L>ra from, massa ?" said the negro.
"The Lord," answered the parson.
"Massa, what you get for preaching here T
"Six hundred dollars, Ctesar ?"
"And what you get toder place ?"
"A thousand."
"Ah, massa, de Lord might call you all
day from §IOOO to §6oo—you no go .'"
A DOG STORY. —A friend of his, said Pres
ident Lincoln—passing along a village street,
was painfully bitten by an ugly dog. A sin
gle blow of a heavy stick, skilfully aimed,
killed the animal instantly ; but the enraged
pedestrian still continued to pummel the
whelp, till little vestige of the eanine form
remained. At length he ws accosted with.
"What are you ab<>ut ? That dog has been
dead these ten minutes." "1 know it," was
the reply ; "but 1 want to g re the beast a
realizing 6nse that there is punisnmeot after
death."
A GOOD IDEA. —The following "notice" is
posted conspicuously in a_ publication office
down east:
''Shut this door—and as soon as you bare
dgpe talking on business, servo your month
the same way."
Bores would not do a slow thing to cut
this out aud paste it inside of their hats.
A Man in New Hamsshire had the misfor
tune, recently to lose his wife. Over the
grave he caused a stone to be placed, on
which, in the depth of his grief, he had or
dered to be inscribed. "Tears cannot restore
her, therefore I weep."
An Irishman being asked why he perroi
ted his pig to take op his quarters with his
family, made an answer abounding with sat
irical naviete. "Why not ? Doesn't the
place afford every convenience that a pig can
require ?"
Major , upon being asked whether he
was not seriously injured when the St. Leon
ards steam boiler exploded, replied that he
was used to being blown up by his wif, that
• steamer bad no effect upon him.
A short time ago the following notice was
Stuck up on a tailor's window: "Wanted
tiro apprentices ; they will be treated as one
of the family 1"
A brave man—one who isn't afraid to wear
old clothes until he is able to pay for new.
