Lookit:” The girl I wed must be quite dumb, (She'd have to de, aay we.) And I must be her darling bum. (Undoubtedly you'd be.) Dark hair she'll have and big black eves. (We hape she blacks yours, too.) Her brain must be of normal size. I’m due at home for dinner At half past six each day, Now, I’m no hardened sinner, Nor am I wild or gay, But when a tie-up holds me Away from home till eight, Boy, how the yood wife scolds me For rolling in so late!

TAXICAB TESSIE. (Steal my purse but do not steal my eweetheart.—Botts.) Summer was on the wane. Tes- sie knew this but what could she do? Fall would soon come and hot weather would be no more. As sh) sat in her rocking chair in the Old Dominion room of her apartment, she grieved for the feemen, Her Uncle Phineas had been an iceman and she knew the hardships he suffered when the weather was cold. The girl was very blue, indeed. “I love you, Tessie.” Toady Allen, the handsome yerg, made the remark as he appeared in the dining room @oor, his napkin in his neck, “Thank you 60 much!” replied Tessie. “You're welcome.” ‘There was no air of bravado about Toady. He came of the Allens of Oklahoma and none could say any of them were braggarts. In his hand Toady held the leg of a chicken.

But Jins came East and the Atchison girls had to content themselves with just common husbands. Last Spring Jim had a wetrd expe- mence here in New York. He was coming from a party about 2 A. M. and was away downtown somewhere. There had been liquids at the party and Jim had partaken generously. Suddenly he saw something thet made him seek a Policeman. “Say, Officer,” said Jim, “where ts the best place for a man with delir- fum tremens to go?" “Bellevue Hospital,” cop, “Why?” “T've just seen a lot of elephants and cainels.” “Oh, don't worry about that. 1 saw them, too.” “Then you'd better come on over to Bellevue with me,” suggested Jim. “Not on your life!” said the cop. “Those elephants and camels belong fo the Ringling-Barnum Cirous. They're moving to Brooklyn.” “The relief,” concluded Jim, in tell- ing it, “was so great that I went back to the party. Why not?
