Reflections of a Bachelor.
It' there were no women in the
world there would be no pessimists.
Very lew women ever have the
sense to cry without mussing up
their hair.
A man can always get a woman
interested in him by pretending
how fond lie is of flowers
What a woman can’t find out
about the monfrom the butcher
she can generally get out of the
dressmaker.
It, is only at a certinn ago that, a
woman ever goes up the steps,
when men are looking at her, with
her skirts in both hands.
Even if a woman hasn’t got any
t-tiperslifson about lad lei.- and
cats she has about \vod>!:..g days,
Every girl who smol-u a
etlo.s on t,ho sly liar- a picture of a
Madonna hung up in her bedroom.
The best, woman in the world
will forgive her husband for being
sinful enough to boiu'vo that mar¬
riages will go on just the sumo in
heaven.
Probably Ananias knew better
than not to tell the truth to Bap
phiia.
Anyway, iiat.uie had just ns
much excuse for inventing babies

VI IE MEASURE OF TRUE

j-ii.it what one lms, so : , uch as
i what one is. A man’s lit’, does
not. consist in what he por.-rs- <>,
but in the use he makes of Lis
earthly goods. A man may be
poor and yet bo truly gre.it, and
a man may ho rich, and yet he
really a small man. Character h
