MISERABLE ATTEMPTS.

BY A MISERABLE MAN.

Q. Why is a cat on its hind legs like the great Fall of Niagara?

A. Because it is a cat-erect.

Q. What is the difference between Handel and the grinder of a barrel-organ?

A. The one was a composer, the other is a discomposer.

Q. Why are men-haters like mice in the West Indies?

A. Because they are mice-an’-tropical.

Q. If a pretty poulterers marries a pill-monger, why may she be said to make a bad bargain of it?

A. Because she lets him have a “duck,” and gets nothing but a quack in return.
