the supreme court deciding that the
fusion or Bryan ticket shall be desig-
mated as Democratic on the official

the law authorize the printing more

Answering the first question, the

Answering the second question, the

For young men who are thinking Of
marriage:
Select the girl
gree with the girls father in politics
and the mother in religion.
If you have a rival, keep an eye on him;
If he is a widower, two eyes on him.
Don't swear to the girl that you have no
bad habits. 1t will be enough for you to
say that you never heard yourself snore in
your sleep.
you do, you Will hear it read in after
years, when your wife has some especial
purpose in inficting upon you the severest
punishment known to a married. man.
Go home at a reasonable hour in the
evening Don't wait till the girl has to
throw her whole soul into yawn that she
can't cover with both hands. A little
thing like that may cause a GOODNESS at
the very beginning of the game
If while wearing your new summer
trousers for the first time you sit down
on some moiasses candy that little Willie
has left on the chair, smile sweetly and
remark that you don't mind sitting on
molasses candy AZ all, and that boys will
be boys" Reserve your true feelings for
future reference.
If on the occasion Of your first call the
girl upon whom you have placed your
young affections looks like an iceberg and
acts like cold wave, take your leave ear
~ and stay away. Woman in her hours
of freeze is uncertain, coy and hard to
please.
In cold weather finish saying good night
in the house. Don't stretch it all the way
to the front gate and thus lay the fOunda-
ton for future asthma, bronchitis, neu-
ralgia and chronic catarrh to help you to
worry the girl to death after she has mar
ried you.
Don't lie about your financial condition.
1t is very annoying to a bride who has
pictured for herself q life Of luxury in her
ancestral halls to learn too late that you
expect her to ask baldheaded parent who
has been uniformly kind TO her to take
you in out of the cold
Don't be too soft Don't say, "These
little hands shall never do a stroke of work
when they are mine," and, = You shall
have nothing to do in our home but to sit
all day long and chirp to the canaries,
as if any sensible woman could be happy
fooling away time in that sort Of style,
and girl has fine, retentive memory for
the soft things and silly promises of court
ship, and occasionally, in after years,
when she is washing the dinner dishes OF
patching the west end OF your trousers,
she viii remind you of them in cold,
sarcastic tone of voice.-Exchange
