1 How did you learn to carve out your

Now that Mr. Fred Grant has gone into
business as a florist, he ought to take Mr.

half as successful selling roses as they were
selling their fellow-men they’d soon be mill

An irascible Indian colonel declared, at a

“See here, Mr. Scales,” said Mrs. Jarphly,
impatiently, “if you don’t give me that
pound of butter I’m going home. Hold

A personal item informs us that Vic.or
Hugo mostly goes to bed. on a cracker and

There is either a very waggish or very
fresh telegraph operator at one of the re

Senator Sharon’s counsel says his client is
“very much annoyed” at the decision which
makes Miss Hill his [the Senator’s] wife.
People will be surprised at this statement.
If Senator Sharon had laughed at the de
cision, if he had thrown up his hat and
“hoop la’d” at it, if he had turned a somer
sault in celebration of it after spending
thousands of dollars to have it otherwise, it
would have been cpiite natural, of course;
but to say that the Senator is “very much
annoyed” at a decision he fought so long
and so stubbornly to avert is a wonder, in
deed. It takes a lawyer sometimes to spring
a surprise upon the people.

“Say, Thompson,” said an acquaintance,
“doesn’t it look as though McGargle was
rather subdued-like nowadays?”
“Subdued !” answered Thompson. “Well,
1 should most emphatically say, yes. That’s
a very quiet family, just now, that of Mc-
Gargle’s.”
“How so ?”
“Why, you see McGargle kissed his moth

A slim youth, accompanied by a pug dog

He walked by her side until her residence
