How He Managed.

A young man started out to rent fiat,
but at every place advertised he was told
that he could not have the fiat, as chill
dren were considered a nuisance.
Tired out he approached the very
last house on the list.
How many in the family?" inquired
the landlord.
"Two-iust two." was the ready
answer.
The landlord was much pleased and
at once drew up lease, and the next
day the family moved in, and were
snugly settled when the landlord came
tearing up the stairs
"What-what is this, sir? You have
cheated and deceived me. You told me
there were only two in the family
Yes, and I told you the truth-a
family of two children"
But you didn't say children.
"And you didn't ask me. What con-
stitutes a family, Ishould like to know
If it isn't the children? You should be
more explicit in your questions, my
friend. -
The landlord raved and fumed, but
it was too late. and it made him more
angry to know that he had with hi'
own hands set the trap he fell into.

WAITING Fon cHAhs1E.

a Pleasant Little, Instance Of "fely
Forsfhought.
Time-Fifteen minutes before the
trainsis due to leave.
Place-The jewelry store.
- Husband discovered looking at hls
watch impatiently, says Qulps.
He-We haven't moment to spare
dear. and we must catch the first tram.
She-But 1 am waiting for the
change. 1t will be here directly.
He-We ought to start right away.
She-Im so sorry, but we must wait.
I gave the clerk 500 bill.
He-Yes, if it's that much we'll
have to wait for it, but it's very impor-
tant that I catch that train to close
up that deal with Jones. The option
expires in an hour and I'll lose several
hundred if / miss it.
She-This waiting is really aggravat-
ing, but the change will surely be
here in moment.
He-They're unconscionably slow.
She-Ah, here it comes at last.
(She thrusts it in her purse and both
start for the door. By tremendous ex-
ertion they succeeded in reaching the
station in time to see the train move
out
He-There, confound it, waiting for
that train has knocked me out OF SoOu
at the lowest calculation.
She-Oh, I'm so sorry, dear.
He-So am /. By the way, how
much did that measly change amount to,
anyhow?
She-Let me see. I paid for that
necklace l got month ago; that was
Ss5.
He-Anything else.
She-Yes; that set of spoons we
gave Mrs. Taddles on her silver we'd
ding. That amounted to $6. That
makes S91, doesn't it?
He-It does. Go on.
She-Then there was ring for Lulu
and one for Ida. The children had
been promised them, you know.
He-Exactly. How much were theyf
She-Two and half each. Ninety,
one dollars and S5 make 500.
He-Anythlng else?
She-Yes, there was dear little but
ter-spear at 50. so.
He (grimly)-The total is s9S.50 now.
What else?
She-Well, 1 got a cute little stick
pin that l really needed, for S1.25.
He-Ninety- mine seventy-fve.
She-And 20 cents worth of silver
polishing powder. What does that
come to? How much change ought
there to be out of 800 bill?

ual effort to keep calm) Five cents
