Mothers

Old Lady-"Young lady, I'll bet your mother would be angry if she saw you in that scanty bathing suit." Young Lady-"You're not kidding. It's hers."

Enclosed Find Check

"Enclosed find check." The sweetest words That e'er outclassed the song of birds. How they allay the widow's fears And dry the orphan's briny tears.

When sad and tired and short of kale, A letter comes by morning mail, Like other letters it appearsWith postage stamp and inky smears.

"No doubt," we sigh, "It is a dunSome frantic person after mon; These beastly bills we cannot Pay Take all the sunshine from the daY.

"And make us wish that we were dead, With stacks of granite overhead."

And then with languid hands we tear The envelope to see what's there.

And then out comes a note, bY heck, With these brave words: "Enclosed find check."

Ah ! Then we bid farewell to woe And like the Brahma roosters crow. The sun once more is cutting haY, The gloomy clouds are blown away, The world is glad that was a wreck, Changed by the words"Bnqle5sd find check'"

Ben Frqnklin Sqid:

"If time be of all things the most precious, wasting tim: must be the greatest prodigality, since lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough always proves to be little enough."

"Why?" asked headquarters, "do you wish to be transferred ?"

"Because." said the unfortunate weather man, mate here does not agree with me." cli-

Milirory Tolk

He was an ex-soldier was this lunch-counter waiter, and so was the short-order cook, and they had their signals down pat. The customer said to the waiter:

"I want a bowl of oyster soup, two scrambled eggs, coffee and brown bread."

And the ex-soldier bawled to the cook:

"Marines in the mud; two squads; deploy 'em, cup of reveille, and colored shock troops !"

How Diogenes fucrificed

The old Corinthian and thinker, Diogenes, was noted, even in those dangerous days, for his independence. It was charged against him by the critics that he never offered sacrifice to the gods of Greece, and there were murmurs against him. Men had died for less. So one day when there was a great gathering in the temple, the old man, who lived in a barrel on the city dump, appeared in their midst and, ostentatiously cracking a louse on the altar rail, proclaimed in loud tones:

"Thus doth Diogenes sacrifice to all the gods at once."

Flying lce

In Montana it was 50 degrees below zero in February, and the foreman of a work gang phoned in to headquarters to report that one of his men had been knocked unconscious by fying ice. The boss wanted to know what he meant by "flying ice." Said the foreman:

"He was chewing tobacco and tried to spit against the wind."
