Expebienced.—" Oh, I've loved before ! " said a woman to her fourth husband, as she took a handful of hair from his head because he objected to hang out. the week's washing. After preaching a tedious sermon on happiness, during which he enumerated the various classes of happy persons, a minister of a Highland church asked one of the elders what he thought of the discourse. " You omitted one large class of the happy," replied the elder— M they who escaped your sermon." Consolation.—There is said to be something consoling for every ill in this life. For instance, if a man is baldheaded, his wife can't pull his hair.
