There la ono way of making n girl
confess that she has had proposals.
A Norfolk nmn did It yesterday.
"How tlmo Hies , " ho declared.
"Why , I can remember wlien you wore
n Httlo bit of n girl nnd I held you on
my lap. Now you nro of marriageable
age old enough to say yes If you had
n chance. "
"Yes , nml-I've Iinil chances , too , "
she retorted , her cheeks Hushed. "But
t snld 'No. ' "
People who nro nlwnys talking nnd
thinking about the cost of trlvlnl

The man who taps n slot machine

Two Norfolk families , counting njl

A man walked Into n Norfolk res
taurant Sunday morning and ate ev
erything on the bill of faro. Then he
spent a good round sum of change
for cigars. Monday morning he re
turned.
"How much do coffee and eggs
cost ? " he asked.
He was told.
Then , hesitating , "How much are
cakes and caffeet"
The price was given.
"Well , give' me a plate of those
beans. "
What had he done between Sunday
and Monday mornings ?
"The sweetest story ever told" in
Norfolk would be the story that sugar
was again to be made in this city.
NOAV we know why no effort Is beln ,
made to get those chicken thieves. It
would cost the county money to pros
ecute and punish them.
If a penny saved Is a penny earned
some law courts are earning money
fast by savin ? their counties the ex
pense of punishing criminals.
What has become of the old-fajh-
loned maa woo , the morning after a
snow storm , caught the school teach
er , and washed her face in the snow ?
The- present police force has saved
Norfolk all colors of coin If you be-
Ueve that punishing criminals la tco
expensive a luxury to be. indulged in
by the county.
