Thorupeon says you may talk cf your water euros, your movement cures, anti your blue glass cures, but there is nothing like the sinecure after all. It is a feet fully understood by rail- road amen that the linos llaviug the most long tunnels on the route secure the bulk of the bridal -tour trach. "I fear yon are forgetting me," said et bright-eyed conquette to her favorite beau."Yes, Carrie, I have been for get- ting you these three years," was the suggestive reply. "Were there cats.in the ark?"is a question that is troubling the religious editor of an exahauge. Certainly there were, and the first thing they said after leaving the ancient craft was ; "If there's Ararat round here we want to gopher it."

Au old miser having heard a power- ful discourse ou charity, said; "that sermon so strongly proves the necessity of alws—ulviug that -I've almost a rniud to beg. A Boaster, in telling of a battle he was in, said : ''Our colonel fall dead in my arras, his bead carried away by a commit 1;a11, and his last words were, bury me wbere, "I fell." An old bachelor accidentally dropped. his false teeth into a grate of burning coals, "Never mind, uncle," said the nephew, it isu't the first time 1 have known you to grate your teeth. An old pian who luta been badly hurt in a railway coilison, being advised to sae for dalnag;es, said, "Well no, not for damages I've had enough of them, I'a just sue 'ein for repairs."

"Faith, teen," said Pat "ye didn't,• stop when she rang he: hell, leather." CAUSES OF UNPROFITABLE FARMING jwriter in the Prairie Farmer for- 2nlilates 12 reasons why farming does iiot pay. This is an important question, especially in the depre.;sed position of our markets, when produee of all kinds barely pays the coat of preduction. We call particular attenliou to the fullow- iug 1, The enormous loss which Many farmers sustain from she neglected con- dition of the inennre piles. 2. The exposure of feem nacl)iuety to the inolemeueies of the weather. 8. The loss which is sustaiucd ill keeping more animals than the owner eau properly provide food and shelter for. 4. Raising scrubby and indifferent enituals when good Does Mould he missed itt the dame cost and twice the profit. 5. Tilling more land than can be propel ly cultivated, thereby raising on tole acres that which might be more profitably raked on one. 0, Making specialties of certain oropa to the ultimate exhaustion of the eoil. 7. Dieposiug of the grope iu alae eon -1I dawnin wbieh they Are raised instead of converting theta lute beef, pork or mutton. 8. In neglecting to properly attend to the little,det.tils of the farm. 0. In not keeping a strict account of the transactions of the farm. 10, In not using proper j udgmene in disposing of the produce of the farm, and the purchase of machinery and other neeeesat'les. 11. Iu purchasing provisions which should be raised at glome. 12, Iu not having.enough machinery to properly harvest and nave the crop. No doubt to some, or all of them may be traced the failure of a number of farmers. EDUCATION IN ENG -LAND. An English writer has been sharply criticising the management of tale Lon- don public sohool,known as the" Board School," and produces the following Its apeeimens of the written examiva- Lions of some of the solu 'ars ; "`hero is turkey?" "Turkey is the capital of Narfalk." Where is Turiu?" "Tureen is the capital of Chimer, the poepul there live on bards nests and have long tails. "Gibberraltor is the 1 riucipal town of Rooshia." "Wliat do you know of the patriarch Abraham?" "He was the father of Lot, and ad tow wifes—wan was called Ilishmalt and the t'otber Haygttr. He kept wall at home, and he turned t'other into the dessert, wheto she became a pillow of salt in the day time salad a pillow of fire at mite." "What do you know of Joseph?" "He woar a 'coat of nisuy garments. He warn chief butler to Faro, and told his dreams. He married Potiffers dar- ter, and he led the Gypsliune out of Kana, in Gallileo, and then fell on his =word and (Bed in site of the promised land " " Give the names of the books of the Old Testintent." "Devonshire, Exeter, Littikus. Num - hers, Stronomy, Jupiter, Judgement, Ruth, etc." "What is a miracle ?" "Don't know." " If you saw the sun shining over you at midnight, what would you call it ?" "The moon." But if you were told it was the sun?' "I should say it was a lie." "Ant,ther boy, giving his impression in regard to Moses, wrote as fellows ; "He was anEgypshuu.

Au inspector who happend to present, enquired ; "And what do you understand monitor." "A hironchad."
