Moved Him

Two old fellows in Pennsylvania were scanning aqgry skies when one said: "Reminds me of the clouds back in South Carolina just before the hurricane struck."

"Bad, was it?" asked the other.

"Well," said the first, "I never had no intention of visiting Pennsylvania."

The Eqsiest Business

Nothing is easier than fault-finding; no talent, no selfdenial, no brains, no character are required to set up in the grumbling business.

-Robert West.

Price - Cutter

There once was a hustling contractor

To whom cost was never a factor. He bid just below Where he thought it would go, And now the guy's greasing a tractor.

Eorly to Bed

Wrote John Jacob Astor: "The man who makes it the habit of his life to go to bed at nine o'clock usually gets rich and is usually reliable. Of course, going to bed does not make him rich; I merely mean that such a man will in all probability be up early in the morning and do a big day's work, so his weary bones put him to bed early. Rogues do their work at night. Honest men work by day. ft's all a matter of habit, and good habits in America make any man rich. Wealth is largely a result of habit.',

A Reference

"Could you give me a bank reference?" said the salesman to the new customer. "Just a formality, /ou know."

"I could," replied the customer, "but it would only distress you."

Your Dog

Pity the man who knows no faltering paws, Who wins no welcome back for his return. Who never sees the scratch of little claws

Upon his polished foors; pray he may learn

The adoration of clear eyes that see, Within a master's voice, their diety.

-Russell Wragg.

R.eversed Duty

"Some of these guyS," remarked Buck Private Cassidy, "has got the idea that the duty of a good soldier is to die for his country. Nuts to that ! The duty of a good soldier is to make the enemy soldiers die for THEIRS."

Technicol

The teacher in a science class in high school will never forget the following answer, written by a young lady in a quiz. One of the questions was: "Define a bolt and nut, and explain the difference." The girl wrote: "A bolt is a thing like a stick of hard metal such as iron, with a square bunch on one end and a lot of scratching wound. round the other end. A nut is similar to a bolt only just the opposite, being a hole in a chunk of iron, sawed off short with wrinkles around the inside of the hole." The startled teacher blinked several times, then marked that one ,'A."

Country life

William Penn said: "Country life is to be preferred, for there we see the works of God; but in cities. little else but the works of men; and the one makes a better subject for our contemplation than the other. The country is both the philosopher's garden and library, in which he reads and contemplates the power, wisdom, and goodness of God."

No Reportee

"This butter," said Boarder Number One at the breakfast table, "is so strong it could walk over and cuss the coffee."

"It wouldn't do any good," said Boarder Number Two. "The coffee is too weak to talk back."

The Open Rood

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road, Healthy, free, the world before me,

The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose. Henceforth I ask not good fortune, I myself am good fortune;

Flencefore I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing;

Done with indoor complaints, libraries, querulous criticisms, Strong and content I travel the open road.

All seems beautiful to me, I can repeat over to men and women, you have done such good to me f would do the same to you.

I will recruit for myself and you as I go, I will scatter myself among men and women as I go, I will toss a new gladness and roughness among them.

-Walt Whitman.

"I don't like the looks of that hatibut," said the lady shopper to the fish market man. Said he in return:

"Lady, if it's looks you're after, why not buy a gold fish?"
