body's head, and that little fingers pull
his whiskers. No one ever mistakes the
good married man. It is only the erratic
one which leaves you in doubt, The

females, and make himself generally
agreeable to the ladies, and yet never
leave doubt on any mind that there is
a precious little woman at home worth
all the world to him.

little waif. Here's chance for some
responsible couple, who are desirous of
starting family.
