It was done, and, clear and distinct above all the loud talker*’ voices, these words were heard—- “ We always fry our’s in lard I ” A public school teacher in a certain city said that the word “deceitful” meant “ false,” and asked one of the pupils to write a sentence with that word in it. In a few moments the bright boy exhibited his slate with this sentence on it, "My ma has deceitful teeth.” Wanted. WANTED a Man Cook.—Must make good bread.—Apply to P.
