On tho level, isn’t a henpecked nun a funny-looking sooatar? If mi acrobat isn't light ou his eet he is npf to light on his hand. A man should try to do his best July when lm is doing the right thing. One nf Hie things that nn tuan knoweth is what u woman will (io next. It takes n lot of practice to en nblo u muii to Income a sciontiCe k nocker. A woman is furious with delight when the right man steals a kiss from her. Don’t attempt to make your murk in the world by making u mark of your neighbor. Why is it that the average mau would rather lose than see some other fellow win? A iniui with a new automobile is about as proud as a girl with her tirot engagement ring. Many u man has discovered that the ladder of fame is very much on the order of u greased pole. The small boy may love bis neighbor tneti buttot thuu he loves himself—if she gives him ft geu i rous hunk of pie. if a woman docs’t want, to be popular with the other women in her neighborhood, all she hu* to do is to wear better clothes than they can afford.—Chicago News.

Hryaii and her daughter will spend several day* in that city. “I consider tie- separation be tween my husband and mveiolt per manent ,” she writes. Behind all this is a story of su premo effort put forth by the pa rents to prevent the wedding of their daughter to the young wid ower of New York. When asked today regarding a statement at tributed to her t hut she hud re ceived a letter from Mrs. Ruth Brian, Mis* Edith Loe.ko, society editor of an Omaha newspaper de nied absolutely having received any such letter from Mrs. Leavitt. 1.755.612 Bale* Behind IMA 7 crop.
