are more smooth, true and uniform in

Test of Love. —As a woman wa s
walking, a man looked at and followed
her.
•• Why,” said she, “do you follow
me?”
*• Because I have fallen in love with
you.”
“ Why so? My sister, who is com
ing after, is much handsomer than I am.
Go and make love to her.”
The man turned back and saw a wo
man with an ugly face, and being great
ly displeased, returned and said, “Why
vou told me a story.”
"She answered, “Neither did you
(tell me the truth, for if you are in love
with me, why did you look for another
woman ?”

generally speaking, the money don't

A gentleman talking to another on

in a storm all her life; but thank heav

“Well, well—where are they both?”
