Each thought of all fishermen he was tho- best Each thought of the fish he'd brins bach to the town. For men will fish , and women must wait , Though the bait be good and they stay out late. Then ho for the calm waters lying ! Three fishers came wandering back to the town , Back home to the town in the morning light. Each one , disappointed , In wearing a frown , For they haven't caught any , though one had a bite , And the few that they carry of boys hava been bought. But think of the big ones they all might have caught And hark to the three fishers lying ! Walter G. Doty in Puck. No Room For Dcubt. The afternoon was warm , holidays were approaching , and the teacher was almost worn out in trying to drum the elements of grammar into the wooden craniums of her pupils. "Now , Johnny , " she said -wearily , "tell me , would it be proper for you to say 'You can't leani me nothing ? ' " Johnny looked thoughtful for a mo ment and then replied in a tone of conviction : "Yes , mum. " The teacher sighed. "Vvrhy , Johnny7 she asked. "Tell me why. " "And now the answer came quick and pat : " 'Cause yer can't , " said Johnny tri umphantly. London Answers. Natural History. " I don't suppose , " remarked Gregg Halloivay , grinning ruefully , "that I'll ever have the nerve to call my son down again. " "What vreut wrong ? " \ve asked him. "It was this way. We were invited out , and the kid exhibited his worst table manners. I leaned over to him and whispered in a stage whisper * 'You're a little pig ! ' "The kid just grinned. " 'Do you hear ? ' I hissed. 'You are a little pig ! Do you have sense enough to know -what a little pig is ? ' " 'Yes , papa , ' answered the child , trying to look innocent. " 'Well , "then , what is it ? ' " 'A pig is a hog's little boy ! ' " Cleveland Plain Dealer. Ladies Fair. All blonds are not light headed. Girls vrith liquid voices should be careful not to strain them. Some women are a delight to the eye and a drug to the mind. Never tell a grass widow that she is in the heyday of life. If woman's age counts against her she knows enough to keep down the count. The girl who marries for a lark often flnds out that she was a jay. The Idea of marrying will haunt a woman if she has the ghost of a chance. Girls feel proud , of having many new admirers , but one old one is real ly more to her credit Boston Tran script. Prepared For the Worst. "Out in the cyclone district , " con fides a man who is just back from an automobile vacation trip , "I saw a farmer building a stone wall around his place. Believe me , that was some wall. It was four feet high and six feet wide. ! asked him about it , and he said , 'I'm buildin' this here wall to stick. ' 'It won't do you any good , ' says I. 'A cyclone will tumble it over. ' 'Let it , ' says the farmer. 'The wall will be two foot higher if it does fall over ! ' " Cleveland Tlain Dealer. Teaching by Example. William Dean Howells is a stout op ponent of those novelists who , under the pretext of reforming their readers , write books about vice. "Such writers , " said Mr. Howells at a luncheon at Kittery Point , Me. , "re mind me of a lad whose mother said to him : " 'Why , Johnny , I do believe you're teaching that parrot to swear. ' " 'Xo , I'm not , mother , ' the boy re plied. Tm just telling it what it mustn't say. ' " Los Angeles Times. Approved. Philip was a conceited youth. One evening he called upon some friends and picked up the new Webster's Un abridged Dictionary which lay on the table. "What do you think of it , Philip ? " asked the host. "Well , " was the re ply , "so far as I have looked , it seems to be correct. " Success Magazine. His Oversight. "He asked her when he proposed if she knew how to keep house. " "That was a happy thought. " "Yes , and still he overlooked a bet. " "How was that ? " "He forgot to ask her if "she knew Low to keep still. " Houston Post. Cutlery Family. "I call 'em the cutlery family. " "Why so ? " "Well , the daughter spoons , the father forks out the money , and the mother knifes the other guests. " Washington Herald. ' Scott's Libel on Woman.
