right way every time hi3 head is
turned.

It was the design of the consti
tution that congress should be a
legislative body.
:o:
Ku Klux Klansmen are advised
that the place to wear nighties is in
their own homes.
-:o:-
The recent cold snaps these few
mornings, make one lock after his
last year's overcoat.

"When death stares a man in the
face and he lives to tell he spends
a lot of time telling it.
:o:
It people would frankly admit,
their ignorance a lot of useless ar
gument might be avoided.

As long as a man is able to keep
out of a dentist's chair he may be
able to suffer in silence.
In a manner of speaking, Armis
tice day thi3 vear will also' be a
kind of fire-preVention day.

-:o:-
Don't think because a cat looks
the picture of innocence it is wise
to leave it alone with the canary.
Usually people never get bored
because they have seen too much,
but because they have thought too
little.
-:o:-
Lots of people think they have
done their full duty when they have
paid the war tax on the movie
ticket.
-:o:-
Jack Frost has taken a very goo.i
time for - his appearance, there is
nothing of importance that he can
injure.
-:o:
Carl Wanderer went to the gal
lows singing a popular song and
there 'is some doubt'as'to his sanity,
after all.
-tor-
Short skirts not only- allow more
freedom of movement, but the girls
who wear them don't have to chase
a man nearly so far, either.
:o:
The morality clause in the movie
contract for players, will bar the
so-called libertine out of the plays
' that so many young, innocent girls
are engaged.
: :o:
That the only cure for unemploy
ment is employment may not sound
like a very profound observation,
but it falls much more gently on
the ears of many than to say the
' only cure for unemployment is work.
:o:
Some women are making progress
in their ambition to secure "abso
lute equality with men" and to do
everything they do. Woman witness
in the Arbuckle case in San Fran
cisco admitted that she had taken
10 drinks of whiskey that evening.
"It don't take a man long to
bag his pants at the knees,
and to make a finely tailored
suit look thoroughly disrepu
table that's the man of it,"
avers Dainty Dorthy.
But she goes on to explain
that the man who is making
use of our cleaning, steaming
and pressing services is keep
ing his clothes in much more
presentable condition than
when he got acquainted with
us. And it doesn't cost much,
either.

Taking babies to movies to make
them stop crying doesn't seem to
succeed.
- o-
An agricultural school Is feeding
cows sawdust. Thus producing more
plank steak.
:o:
Three rousing cheers for this
weather. It's the regular made-to-order
variety.
:o:
Congressman don't spend as
much time delivering their speeches
as mail men do.
-:o:-
"The U. S. nickel is 75 per cent
copper." news Item. Now what is
a copper worth?
. ;o:
Never hit a man when he Is down
unless you are sure of your ability
to keep him down.
o:o
Great Britain says she will make
good the ZR-2. It should have beeil
made good at first.
o:o
Lenine says he is tired of ruling
Russia and wants to quit. That
makes it unanimous.
It would help if vacationists were
compelled to furnish affidavits with
their picture post cards.
-:o:-
The mine workers decided at In
dianapolis that what the country
needs is another political party. And
possibly a larger coal output.
:o:
Mr. Harding calls the big nation
al debt our "war inheritance." So if
it will make your taxes any easier,
call them your inheritance tax. .
:o:
Even in the movement for "beat
ing our swords into plowshares,"
some nations want to do all the
beating and to reserve for them
selves the largest shares.
' :o:
. Billyy Sunday, the noted evange
list, in his "interview with Cecil B.
DeMille, says he will oppose the cen
sorship which some people are de
manding for the movies.
:o:-
AVhat the Topeka Journal calls a
sure sign of a hard winter: A. C.
Townley, Non-Partisan League boss,
is eager to go to jail and serve a
sentence imposed a year ago.
:o:
If it Is true that Mr. Arbuckle
has refused to pay a lawyer a $50,
000 fee it seems to show the movie
millionaires believe that sudden
riches are not good for people.
:o:
Well, if the Arbuckle exposure
didn't take some of the movie as
pirations out of some of our young
folks, maybe the new "morality
clause" in the movie contracts will.
-:o:-
One sign of a severe winter is
that the birds and animals are said
to be growing unusually heavy
coats. This is also an indication of
the superior resources of the so
called lower animals.
o:o
Congressman Herrick want a na
tional law making it a crime for
anyone to impersonate a king on
i the stage. The court fool is also a
symbol of monarchy that Mr. Her
rick seems to have overlooked.
:o:
It is feared the Oklahoma man's
plan of granting divorce by clip
ping a coupon off the marriage cer-
j tificate will never go into effect.
! American coupon clippers are a falr
! ly restricted class at present and
probably should not grow too swift
ly. :o:
Shipments of German toys are be
ginning to reach this country in an
ticipation of the peace on earth,
good will toward men. A little hasty
lof the shippers, perhaps, seeing that
peace is not yet ratified, but doubt
less they figure it will be before
Christmas.
:o:
"Five 'Millions Will Die In Rus
sia This Winter," says a headline.
The alarmist should be referred to
the evangelist who has been run
ning advertisements in western
newspapers all summer under the
heading: "Millions Now Living Will
Never Die."

Money goes a little further nowa
days, but not quite far enough to
reach from one payday to another.
:o:
A thrifty wife saves her own
pocket money by taking her hus
band along when she goes shopping.

A Chicago man is in jail for

After a man has been married
three of four years the Romeo and
Juliet balcony scene makes him
weary.
:o:
Japan announces its intention of
treating. China kindly. Perhaps
China would prefer not to be treat

To the confusion of faunal natur
alists, the blind tiger and the blind
pig are reckoned as belonging to the
same family.
:o:
Considering bow many men have
axes to grind it is astonishng how
few you can find who are willing
to cut cord wood.
:o:-
Jimmy Stillman has sailed fox
Europe and Fatty Arbuckle Is out
on bond. Both have now Joined the
ranks of has-beens.
:o:-
The old-fashioned mother who
used to make delicious hot biscuits
now has a daughter who is an adept
at making home 'brew.
:o:
It has just about reached the
point In this country where nobody
can enjoy hearing a public speaker
unless he abuses something.
o:p
Cheer up, all good Democrats!
Just about this time next year we
will be preparing to give the Repub
licans one heluva walloping.
:o:
The .embattled bards are advised
to tune their harps to celebrate the
conference on the limitation of arm
ament or to tune their harp3, any
way. :o:
The German mark has dropped to
the point where it would hardly buy
a chintzbug and we don't attach
much value to our chintzbugs,
either.
-o:o-
Business is better in Nebraska
because of better wheat prices, and
also because there are a thousand
other reasons why it ought to be
better.
-:o:
The German Reichstag ratified
the peace treaty with the United
States that it confirms our suspic
ion to the' effect that we are get
ting the worst of it in that treaty.
-:o:
"The present shortage of minis
ters is acute, critical and grave," ac
cording to a church conference re
port. But scarcely more acute, criti
cal and grave than the shortage of
synomnyms.
:o:
If you can't speak a good word
concerning Plattsmouth, keep your
mouth shut. Remember that the
devil was not thrown out of heaven
until he commenced knocking his
home town.
:o:
Anyway, you have to admire the
unadulterated gall of those Chicago
policemen in league with a gang of
bootleggers who delivered large
quantities of hootch in police pa
trol wagons.
:o:
A shipload of Argentine oranges
sold In New York at two dollars per
crate. It is now up to California and
Florida to ask for a tariff that will
prevent us from buying oranges for
less than 5 cents apiece.
:o:
It is now a popular fad with the
flappers to wear the pictures of their
"steadies" on their shoe buckles. As
a matter of fact, the only proper
place for a woman to wear a man's
picture is under her heel.
:o: :
Collections of September 15th in
stallments of the income tax amount
ed to half a billion dollars more
than the estimate of Secretary Mel
lon, of the treasury department. Who
said this country was busted?
:o: ;
Mischa Elman, the Russian violin
ist, says that the women of Ameri
ca are the most beautiful in the
world. That's the trouble with those
foreigners. They are always telling
us something we already know.
:o:
When those foreign nations as
semble for the disarmament confer
ence, they ought to be required to
leave their battleships and heavy
artillery with Uncle Sam as collat
eral for the war loans they owe us.
