mera e TRTR e Smartly Said The girl who endeavors to get a hus- band who is “different” usually picks a lemon, It i8 useless for a wife to attempt to be economical unless she can handle the pay envelope. When some men grant a favor that costs them nothing they seem to think that they should own you, The early bug would have a better time but for the fact that the bird is always on the lookout for him. Artificlal Snow. A curious instance of the formation of artificial snow was witnessed at night on one occasion in the town of Agen, in France. A fire broke out in a sawmill when the temperature was 10 degrees below freezing point. The water thrown upon the fire was instantly vaporized and, rising in the cold, dry air, was imme- diately condensed and fell as snow. ‘With bright starlight and .a strong northwest wind blowing, the whirling snow above and the raging fire below, a brilliant spectacle was presented. Proved That He Was. “Say, do I look like an easy mark?” “No, you don’t,” replied the smooth confidence man. “You look to me like a person who is out of place in this hidebound community. If my knowl- edge of character hadn't convinced me that you have initiative, business abil- ity and the courage to play for big stakes I never would have picked you out as the only man in town who de- serves to make a million dollars.” “Ahem! Well, let’'s hear what your scheme is.”—Birmingham Age-Herald. He Was Wrong. A bishop was being entertained by a New Haven clergyman, and the host’s little daughter was permitted to eat with the family. When dinner was over the little miss observed that the guest did not fold his napkin, where- upon she felt it her duty to call his attention to the omission. “We always fold our napkins.” “Yes, my dear,” returned the bishop, .with a beaming smile. “Buf that is because you use them again. In the case of a visitor you don’t do that.” “Qh, yes, we do,” corrected little Eva. Gascony. Gascony, the old province of France, is a favorite locality to evolve heroes of fiction. It is in the southwestern part and derived its name from the Vascones, a Spanish tribe, which cross- ed the Pyrenees about 580. It is that area of land between the Pyrenees, the Garonne and the Atlantic. In 1152, when Eleanor married Henry Plan- tagenet, it became an English posses- sion and remained so until 1453, when the French reconquered it. Its inhab- tants were noted for their slowness, courage and passion for boasting. Styles In Fat Laaies Fat ladies are still quite popular .mu take up a lot of space in the public eye. By their waist lines ye shall know them. Fat ladies come in all sizes, young and old, rich and poor. A pleasant variety is the fat lady who declares that she doesn't believe in dieting, as it interferes with vne's health. Romantic fat ladies continue to be en regle in all select circles. Making love to them is usually attended by large returns.—Life. Give Us the First. First Childhood—When old friends of the family feel free to ask, “How old are you?"
