Women's Weokness

The husband was running around looking for his hat when his wife asked him what he wanted it for. Said the husband:

"That fellow across the street just phoned and asked if I could lend him a corkscrew."

Said the wife: "Well, why don't you let him come and get it?"

A look of deep sorrow and dejection spread over his countenance. He said: "My dear, that remark of yours sums up in its entirety the weakness of woman's wisdom. It is because of such reasoning as that, that women cannot lead armies, control nations, or take any outstanding part in world affairs."

Sound R.eosoning

A brightJooking boy applied for a job at a local store, and when the manager asked his name, he said:

"Lincoln, sir; Abraham Lincoln."

"Well," said the manager, smilingly, "that's a very well-known name, isn't it?"

The boy said: "Well, sir, it ought to be. I've been delivering groceries around this town for mighty near two years."

Mosters of lUlonners

Former President Francis Madero, of Mexico, was a small man, and somewhat sensitive about it. Once. when he was about to be photographed with his cabinet, the Secretary of State, Abraham Gonzales, was required to stand by him.

Madero lifted his eyes to the face of the tall Gonzales and, observing his great height, remarked: "I feel that my size will not show to advantage unless we are seated."

"Your Excellency," said Gonzales, "if you could only stand on your wisdom, you would dwarf us all."

"Well said," replied Madero with a smile, "provided you did not stand on your courtesy at the same time."

The Morning Affer

Good morning, my bright international mate, My outstanding genius in problems of state; I trust all is clear in that wonderful mind, Which last night remodeled the whole of mankind.

Your handling of China, the Ruhr, Palestine, And Russia, and Greece, it was masterly, fine; You're bound to be named as "The Man of the Year." Here's four or five aspirins-swallow them, dear.

Awake my fine songster; it's well toward noon, All morning I've waited, just hoping you'd croon A measure from "Chloe" or "Deep Rolling Sea," Which last night you warbled till half after three.

You wakened the neighbors, you tripped on the mat, And one of your props was your hostess's hat. I'm sure she will want you again for tonightThe life of the party whenever you're tight.

Arise, my sweet prince, but be careful, don't skid. Arise and consider the things that you did: The uprooted garden, the splintered garage, It sounded just like an old-fashioned barrage.

Go call on your hostess, and carry a check, I think if you signed it just "pain in the neck" The bank will okay it-t'would be just like youThe clown went berserk twixt the dawn and the dew.

So drink up that seltzer, you chattering drone, It's said to be good for a splintering dome; I wish I were Sandow, how far I would throw you, For the next thirty days, please pretend I don't know you.

Envoi: My juvenile jackass, my dim-witted duffer, You say you feel awful? Well, dawgonya-suffer!
