Hints for Hot Weather.

From the Attention Critic.
Don't shake the hornets nest to see
if any of the family are at home.
Don't go near draft. If draft
comes toward you, run away. A
slight draft is most dangerous.
Don't blow in the gun your grand
father carried in the war of 1872. IT
is more dangerous now than it was
then.
Don't hold a wasp by the other end
while you thaw it out IN front of the
stove to see if it IS alive. 1t is gener.
ally alive.
Don't try to persuade a bulldog to
give up yard of which it is in posses
sion. Possession to a bulldog is ten
points of law.
