Just how many divorces have been
brought about by the failure of the man
to get up aud light the fire, only the
records of the court wilt show, but there
is a Georgia man who has apparently
solved a correct plan to overcome tl is
evil, by devising a lighting attachment
for alarm clocks. With an invention of
this character in the house, the husband
can prepare his tire at night and set the
alarm clock, say for seven o’clock the
next morning. When the hour of seven
rolls around, a spring actuated match
holder is caused to ignite a match and
start the fire and the pot boiling.
Whether some one will go a step further
and piepare the coffee and meals over
night, so that all the wife will have to
do will be to set the table, is as yet a
question. No fair-minded woman
would object to that service.

Some one asks the Frontier, “What is
Kissing?” and then goes on to tell all
about it himself, in this way: ‘Kissing
is by nature a gift. A gift is a present.
A present is a token of respeot, love,
etc. When you wish to kiss a young
lady, just find a nice seat, (single pre
ferred) then muster up your courage to
about sixty degrees above your heart.
But first of all, get a girl, (white, or
black will do if it is dark) and then go
through the above program. You will
probably be coaxed to vote for the
“Democratic” party or to sing with “Ig
natius Donnelly” but it doesn’t matter,
“it is only a promise.” Put your arm
around her plum and pudding neck,
draw her strawberry jam face .to your
alabaster lips, and—wait a minute.
Look into her divine features. Don’t
open your mouth as though you were
going to swallow her, but lay her head
on your protective arm, gaze into the
unexplorable, part her lips lightly and
then—wait a minute. Screw your
courage up to the last test or notch and
then smack her. Where? Well, any
place on her head from her chin, up.
How does it feel? “Aw Hush.”
