Puck — October 9, 1878 — page 14: what you’re looking at

Machine-transcribed from the original scan — historical spelling and the odd misread are preserved.

Tue boy sat on the orchard fence, His face was wreathed with woe; To reach his home, far, far from thence, Long miles he had to go. Green apples that would fill a peck He'd stowed within his hold; And now; a writhing, tortured wreck, Distressing to behold, He called aloud, ‘Oh, Lordy! But ah, he called in vain; With vengeful grip old cholera morb Just tied him up again. —Burlington Hawkeye. A New Yorker has been arrested for having nine wives, He was merely laying in a stock of wives for the winter. He read ina paper a few weeks ago that ‘wives are becoming dear- er,” and he thought it would be wise eccnomy to secure a few before they became too expen- sive. We hope the judge, however, will punish his marital greediness by. sending him to the jail for two hundred and fifty years. No fair- minded gentleman would endeavor to create a “corner” in wives before Tilden and Dr. Mary Walker secured one.— Norristown Herald. A Woman was yesterday scen hanging out some clothes in a yard on Macombstreet when a boy looked over the fence and called out: “Have you seen any mad dogs go by here, just now?” “Mad dogs mercy!” gasped the woman, and she threw four wet shirts on the ground in a heap and got into the house at four bounds, The boy maintained his: position, and after a few minutes the woman put her head out of the door and asked: “Have you?” “Noap.” was the calm reply; “I guess the season for ’em has drawed to a close.” “You miserable boy! why did you alarm me so!” she exclaimed as she opened the door and stood on the step. “Who's bin alarmed? I guess if I want to find a mad dog I’ve got a right to inquire if any has gone by, haven't 1? You don’t expect me to go ’n git out full-sheet posters and leave ‘em at houses, do you, or pay for a double- column ad. in the Free Fress/ Humph! the idea that a boy can’t jist inquire about mad dogs." — Detroit Free Press. Lord!” ALTHOUGH Puck is not extravagant in the matter of clothes himself, he is a lover of well- dressed people, and nothing affords him greater satisfaction than the spectacle of ladies and children charmingly attired. ‘Those, then, who wish to find favor in his sight should lose no time in visiting ARNoLD, Constant Co., BRoapway, CORNER OF NINETE!
