Sure!
"It is tho unexected that always
happens."
"That's right. I always know it is
going to happen to me."
Tho Grouch
"I have noticed," growled the
chronic grouch who doesn't own an
auto, "that the man who owns an
auto usually has a family whose fe
male members need something to at
tract attention away from their
faces."
Why?
"Why do you women wear a lot of
jute in your hair?"
"Probably for tho same reason
that you men wear vests with a big
show of fine cloth in front and a
concealment of cheap sateen ' in the
back."
Explained Satisfactorily
"Lobk here, Bilkins; did you call
me a liar?"
"Certainly not, Mr. Blufferly. My
only reference to you was to say that
you were so careful of the truth that
you handled it with extreme caution
and moderation."
"That's all right, old man. I
didn't believd It when I was told that
you had attacked my Veracity."
As Usual
"I think," exclaimed Blufferly with
fine scorn, "that pblitics is a. dirty
business: - I'll havtf nond df it. The
candidates are all rotten, the gang
controls everything, and principle is
lost sight of in the pursuit of office."
"Did you vote at the recent pri
mary?" I asked.
"No, I didn't. I had to fix my
coalbin on primary day."
"Did you register?"
Forgot it. I was pretty busy all
day the last registration day, and In
the evening I attended a whist party
and didn't think of registering until
it was too late."
This made it plain to me why
Blufferly holds the opinions he does
of politics and the political situation.
Doubtless
"The man who marries my daugh
ter, sir, must be able to give her as
good a homo as I have given her.
Can you do that?"
"Well, I don't know," replied Jack
Bluffington, who stood In better with
the mater than with tho pater, "but
I know from what I have heard
around this house that I can give her
a bettor homo than tho one you gavo
tho daughter of tho man you had to
interview before marriage."
Plenty of It
"Is there any money in holding
elective office?"
"That deponds," replied Senator
Graball. "The men upon whom I de
pend for continuance In offico seem
to prosper fairly well."
Just Like a Man
"O, hurry up there!" growled tho
waiting husband.
"My dear," replied tho wife, wav
ing her curling Iron in tho air to cool
it a bit, "you must give mo time for
this. You know a 'woman's crown
ing glory is her hair. "
"Rats!" muttered her husband.
