His Defense of Women as Humorists
‘ Goes to Smash.
A party of men, among whom was
Colonel William Jennings Bryan,
were one night waiting for a train
in a depot hotel in a small Missouri
town. The landlady was the only
woman present.
The talk turning upon the alleged
inability of women to sce the point
of a joke as readily as do the men,
Mr. Bryan took the ground that a
sense of humor was as much a part
of the feminine makeup as it was
that of man, but that it merely
lacked opportunity for development.
“To illustrate,” said he, “take the
gtory of the party of excursionists
in the .ligean sea. When approach
ing the Grecian coast the party as
gembled about the rails to enjoy the
beautiful scenery. One lady turned
inquiringly to a gentleman at her
right and said:
““What is that white off there on
the horizon?’
““That is the snow on the moun
tains,” replied the gentleman ad
dressed.
“‘Well, that’s funny,” she replied.
‘My hushand said it was grease.””
All of the men in the group
laughed noisily at Mr, Bryan’s story,
but the landlady looked puzzled. Fi
nally she said:
“But, Mr. Bryan, how did the
grease get on the mountain ?”
~ Mr. Bryan at once dropped the
defense of women as born humor
ists,.—Lippincott’s Magazine,
An Infallible Sign.
“You left her very abruptly,” said
one woman. :
“Yeg,” answered the other. “As
soon as she started with ‘I wouldn’t
tell you this if I weren’t your true
friend’ 1 knew she was going to be
flisagreeable, so T came away.”’—

ONTAGIOUS BLOOD POISC
I\ )R, | y
" To Contagious Blood Poison rightfully belongs the name King of all
Diseases. It is the most powerful of all human ailments—corrupting every
part of the body and wrecking and ruining the lives of those unfortunate
enough to contract it. When the first sign appears in the form of an insig
nificant sore or ulcer, few persons realize that the deadly virus has entered
the blood; but so potent is the poison that one drop will vitiate and pollute’:
the purest and healthiest blood, and in a short time the degrading and hor
rible symptoms begin to appear. The mouth and throat ulcerate, the glands
in the neck and groins swell, the hair and eye-brows fall out, copper-colored
spots appear on the body, and in the latter stages of the disease the poison
even works down and destroys the bones. No other disease is so highly
contagious, and many have contracted it and suffered its awful consequences
through a friendly hand-shake, handling the clothing of one afflicted with:
it, or drinking from the same vessel. S. S. S., The King of Blood Purifiers,
is the only cure for Contagious Blood Poison. It goes down into the cif=
culation and forces out every particle of the virus. It is nature’s antidote~
for this peculiar poison, and cures the disease,
in all its stages, and cures it permanently.
S. S. S. does not hide or cover up any of the-
PY poison to break out in future years, but so com
® e pletely eradicates it from the blood that no signs:
PURELY VEGETABLE. areeverseenagain. S.S. S.is purely vegetable,,
