14 PUCK. Durinc a heated term, persons should be excused for putting on “airs.”—orristown Herald, Puck asks if the dollars of our novelists can be called storied earns? Yes, and we have known some authors who have enjoyed ani- mated busts with them. —Zadtimore Every Sat- urday. Compressep air has been successfully used as a motor for street cars, and perhaps this is what Mr. Hayes leaves behind to run the Gov- ernment when he goes traveling.—Xrontkic- Herald. ‘Tue Cleveland Band were photographed last week, the ews says. We suspect that the pictures are to be sent into adjoining towns to warn people against harboring the originals.— Fulton Times. W. JasPeR BLackBuRN, who some time since shook the dust of old Claiborne parish from his feet, and moved to Arkansas, is announced as a candidate for Congress from the Fifth District of Louisiana. Variety of politics not stated.—Avcayune, Yes, there is something in it. If a Green- backer hires a horse, and returns only the pic- ture of a horse, marked ‘‘ This is a horse, John Sherman, Secretary of the Treasury,” the sta- ble-keeper, if also a Greenbacker, would have to be satisfied, or else deny his own logic and become a grasping capitalist.— Lowel! Courier. ‘Two Germans met in San Francisco recently. After affectionate greeting, the following dia- logue ensued: “ Fen yousay you hef arrived 2” “ Yesterday.” “You came dot horn around ?” “No.” “Oh! den you come dot land over?” “No.” ‘Den you hef not arrived?” ‘Oh, yes! I hef arrived. I come dot Mexico through.” — Unknown Ex. A “Speciat Advertising Agent” offers the Times the munificent sum of “$1 cash in ad- vance,” for a six-inch advertisement next to reading matter four weeks, and a two-inch editorial notice, After this, who will be reck- less enough to say that country newspapers ought not to get rich?— Fulton Times. Tue newspaper man who writes about “‘ ye local” is only one remove from the hopeless idiot who talks of ‘ wee sma’ hours,” ‘“ créme de la créme” and ‘dinna ye hear the slogan.” —St, Louis Journal, And he should be yoked to the chap who uses “launched into eternity” for hanged, and “Reynard” for fox.—/orris- town Herald, Sucu nights were made for lovers Who sit on the stoop and spoon; While on the scene, with smile serene, Shines the effulgent moon. She leans upon his bosom, As the moon sinks in the west: Her downy cheek, so smooth and sleek, Leaves powder on his vest. —Hackensack Republican. As a “summer resort,” Norristown stands at the head of the list. When the thermometer marked 100 degrees in Philadelphia, and 85 degrees at Atlantic City and Cape May, our merchants were selling many blankets and overcoats, and our druggists disposing of oint- ment for frosted feet; two drowning cases oc- curred by boys breaking through thin ice, and the plumbers did a good business repairing burst water-pipes; several sets of false teeth were found on the sidewalk—the owners hav- ing chattered them out of their mouths, and all travel on the shady side of the street was suspended. (This is a lie; but we notice that it is the fashion for all summer resorts to lic about the state of the thermometer.)—orris- town. Herald.
