"A man can eerve two mnatera when
He haa a wits and biiliy."
Oh!
"Vouiib man. voti are a hero." ex
claimed the hrtirvolent old Retillenian,
as he shook hands with t lie man who
had rescued another man who was
drowning. "You risked your life to
save that of your companion.
"Vessir," said the hero. "He owes

Contentment Ami Ambition Are

Luke McLuke Sayi
You may not believe ii. ilut a man's
conversation can he very heavy and yet
not carry much weight.
The average man is just a big enough
mule to prefer Cireat Riches to Content
ment. And we don't, blame him. Give
us the (ireat Riches and we'll make
Contentment eat out of our hand.
Woman is supposed to he weaker
than man. Iiut she doesn't live tip to
the supposition if she is fond of onions.
There may be I deal Husbands ami
Ideal Wives in this world. Hut they
are never married to each other.
The summer waists leave so little to
the imagination that if a girl happened
to forget to wear a waist nobody would
in. tier the difference.
Don't you like to meet the man who
takes hold of your hand like it was
a wet washrag? Neither do we.
The old-fashioned man who used to
worry for fear the bicycle fad would
make a round-shouldered race out of us
now has something else to worry about.
When a man it mortgaging his health
for rojn or pleasure, he never figures
on the terrible interest he will have to
pay.
Why is it that a bachelor needs exery
drawer in an eight-drawer chiffonier
and that a married man can get along
with a half of a corner in one driwef?
If a mirror tells a girl that she
is homely and a man tells her that she
is pretty, she knows that mirrors are
awful liars.
The only thing that is worrying tis
is what with all the young men in UlC
cantonments and training stations, ytmo
the hek is going to teach the girls to
swim this summer?
There are two Rood ways to advertie
anything. Hither use a newspaper or
tell your wife.
Of rourne it may be purely accidental.
