Some- \ times we tip over the Dresden vase while giving a clog exhibition, Wrop a poly- chrome piece of ice cream down § the hostess's neck or forget the cig: arette until it has burned a hoie through the best tablecloth. All ot those little inci- dents are recalled, Supreme! ‘There's a good deal of satie- faction in wearing the best article of apparel in its lime. Boston Garter | in wrong. with a shudder, and are repeated vividly in our most dismal night- mares. And all because we tried to be the “life of the party.” Sol declared that it was his first Genuine gaucherie. Never before had he so distinguished himself, while nis neighbors were always telling of the wrong joke or something and getting Moreover, Sol had come to bo regarded as of the party instead of with it. And as Mrs. Sol viewed the dwindling annual supply of invita- tions in retrospect she asked him fer- vently if he ever wanted to make her the social sun of the section that she was clearly destined to be—instead of remaining mere satellite—to try on this, the occasion of Moe's twentieth anniversary, to show @ little pep or something. ‘ “Remember, Sol,” she cautioned as Sol put on his ‘next-best necktie, “you are always sitting in the cor- ner looking at things, while Abie is always playing the piano, which he can’t do, and Benny is showing some bum card tricks, and Izzy is telling Jokes which nobody ought to tell when there is ladies around, and they 4} get away with it.” “What do you want me to do?” in- quired Sol, ther, with some heat, “do me to get drunk like Abie and Benny always is at every party ex- cept their own when there isn't enough to get drunk on? I don't drink because it cests too much mohey, but I suppose you would like to see me getting drunk and being all the lives of the party?” “Sol, you stop right now,” com- manded Mrs. Sol, who was on the verge of tears, It had been long since such an outburst had come from her husband—not since the time when she bought the leather set’ of Shakespeare for fifty cents down and four dollars a month, ag she recalled with quick recollection. “Well, ail four moth balls out of his vest pocket and throwing them out the window, “I guess I must be elected. Wait till I go out and get a mask or a rattle or something. Mrs. Sol recovered quickly and in- formed Sol exactly where the next stop was. Sol again bowed his head, begged forgiveness and agreed to do something to make her proud of him if he had to break a window or get in a fight with Spatz the saloon- keeper, who owed him $6.80. He then kissed her and hooked the back of her Aires with resignation. At 9, just as the first case of beer had been demolished, the pair arrived at Moe's. Sol made a very pretty speech and presented Moe with a picture of Paul and Virginia doing the 440 down the turnpike with evident relish, which had been presented as a wedding pres- ent ten years ago and had been in the guest room closet ever since. Moe looked at it critically, observed that Paul seemed to have the pole, and further volunteered that the beer was in the dining room and the booze in the kitchen. Much to every one's sur- prise, Sol asked where the kitchen was, Three A. M. Abie had just sustained his reputation for playing the piano and had been placed in the easy chair upstairs for further reference. Benny had shown his card tricks ‘until no one else was watching him except the younger Moes, who were trying ‘to find out how he ot the ace out of his sieeve with such despatch. Izzy had told his jokes so well that his wife was weeping and wanted to go home. “Good time had by all,” was the verdict. Between drinks Sol had been thinking. Mrs. Sol gave him a quick look every once in a while and it was obviously up to him. Finally he declared privately to Moe that if he could have a little swift one he would try and entertain. “Good,” said Moe approvingly. “It's time you did something for the party except the picture of the running At that time a self-styled profes- sional singer arrived and, after being properly coy and properly urged, agreed to sing if she could have a cocktail first. Sol mixed something from the first four bottles within reach and described it as the “east side special.” The entertainer was| then ready for anything and started! to sing. | Sol heard nothing, saw nothing. He had another quick one and decided that now or never was the dope. He put his coat collar up, pulled his hat down and walked into the he had onc oF he singer stopped and xplain that she wasn'( used to such. The guests hissed and some one threw Sol out of the door into Grand styer followed by M®. Sol. “It is just sike this,” said Sol, na he came to Essex Market Cou explained to Assistant District At- torney Direnzo: “I was thrown out. My wife beat me up when I got home. Sol went home, I ought to have a warrant for A body? but 1 don’t remember an about what happened. “Go right home,” urged the Prose- cutor. “It always happens once, and you can tell your wif the life of the part af te pare FLIES IN AIR, RUNS ON LAND. wright, 1910, by The Press lubiia ving Co, ban (The New York Workl,) PARIS, Oct. 16,—Whats evidently a similar invention to, one recently thought out by an American constructor was made known here to-day, A young French engineer has invented a motor car with which ho believes he can travel r and on the land too, Much the n_invention, the Mother! dizections for babies a the bottle. where the song Good Hosiery and Underwear News Fall stocks have many a timely bargain in hosiery and underwear for every member of the family.
