Laughing Around the World
With irvin s. COBB
A Martian Aspect
. By IRVIN S. COBB
TT WAS a beautiful night with a full moon riding high in the heavens.
. Officer McCune, strolling along a peaceful by-path in the park,
was horrified to see a well-dressed man crouching on the margin of a
still pool, peering downward into its depth a pose and an intentness
which to the policeman's mind could betoken naught save a plan for
self-destruction.
Stealing forward, he fixed a strong grip in the supposed would-be
suicide's shoulder.
"Say," he demanded, "what's the big idea."
The stranger turned a red and sorely puzzled face upon Officer
McCune. He spoke in tones of a profound bewilderment and as he spoke,
the Officer realized that the other, alas, had been drinking malt,
spirituous or vinous lienors or possibly a combination composed of all
tnree.
"Ossifer," said the inebriated one, "look there!" He pointed down
ward to where, in the water, Fair l-una war. gloriously reflected.
"Well, what of it?" demanded Officer McCune somewhat gruffly.
Naturally he was disappointed he hael in anticipation already seen
his name in tomorrow's papers a3 the heroic rescuer of a despairing
human life.
"Do you shee what I shee down there below me?"
"Sure I see it."
"Ish the moon, ain't it?"
"Soitin'ly it's the moon."
"Sure being the case then, whas I want t' know is haw the hell did
I get 'way up here?"

"that's p swell idea. I could make

"Read on a little farther in that

Jack turned to page two and read
as follows:
TOOTH CLEANSING MATERIAL
There are so many toothpastes
and powders on the market that
it is hard for most of us to de
cide which is best. A good rule
to follow in seeuring a denti
frice is to choose one whoso
manufacturers do not claim that
it will do more than clean
teeth. No toothpaste can cure
decay, pyorrhea or other mouth
disease. In selecting a denti
frice, choose one that does not
contain any ingredients that
are so harsh that they will in
jure the enamel or irritate the
gums and lining of the mouth.
A half month's supply of
teothpowdtr can be made by
mixing a level teaspoonful cf
table salt with a level teacup
full of ordinary baking soda.
This dentifrice may not taste as
pleasant as a more expensive
and highly flavored brand, but
if properly used with a good
toothbrush, it will help to keep
the teeth clean.
