t*IGNS OF A BOY. A gun in the parlor, a kite in the hall. In the kitchen a book, and a bat and a ball. On the sideboard a ship, on the bookcase a flute, And a hat for whose ownership none would dispute; And out on the porch, gallantly prancing no where, A spirited hobby horse paws r.t the air; And a well polished pie plate out there on the shelf, Hear the tall jelly jar which a mischievous elf Emptied as slyly and as slick as a mouse. Make it easy to see There's a Boy in tlu House. uskod The Sweetest Proposal “The sweetest proposal ever dreamed of,’’said Eli Perkins, “I think w;.s limii Austin Dobson.” “May I call you Paula?’’ he modestly. “Yes,” she said, faintly. “Dear Paula—may I call you that?” “I suppose so.” “Do you know I love you? ’ “Yes.” “And shall I love you always.' ‘ If you wish to.” “And will you love me? Paula did not reply. “Will you, Paula?” he repeated. “You may love me,” she said avail. “But don’t you love me in return? “I love you to love me.” “Won’t you say anything more ex plicit?” “I would rather not.” They were married and happy within three months.

If anybody should call for me in the next hall hour I shall be lying on the lounge just inside the door of the hack room.” The Latest Advertising Job. “Have you heard the latest news? “No! what is it?” “You know Smith, the artist?”. “I should say so. He is my worst rival.” “Well, his wife has run away with a freak out of a dime museum." “She has? That's all her husband doings. That’s one of Smith’s ways of getting himself advertised.”—"lexai Siftings. Not so Bad as it Might Bn. Young Wife—Yes, I am worried.
