"I may seem a brute, Mabel," said
the innocent young man, "but I ought
to tell you that last night, at your
party, your sister promised to marry
me. Will you forgive me for taking
her away?"
"Forgive you!" replied she. "Why,
that's what the party was for!"

man, maybe you'd better use both
eyes." Top-Notch. '
