of women, both married and unmarried,
and they are all just alike They do all
the courting and generally propose before
you have courted them week.

''It is this-the man who marries one
is jackass."
The old fellow scratched his head for

Down in Washington they are having
a squabble over which statesman's
counterfeit presentment is to ornament

Four of the master minds of theoso-

ADVICE IN LOVE AFFAIRS.
The Old Man Had n Constitutional
Right to BE a .Jackass.

There IS no use of opposing love af-
fair, not even when the actors play into
your own hands. says the New York
Herald. I know what I'm saying. I've
had experience with two-the young and
the old man. My first experience was
with a young man who didn't know his
mind and asked me what he had better
do and l, like father, told him he had
better not marry the girl he was court
ing. He went right off and married her.
An old man from the country came
into the car where was reading my
morning paper and sat down at my side.
beg your pardon, sir, he said. did
you ever court a grass widder?"
ooh, yes said. rive courted dozen
or more. Why?''
Ibid you ever marry one?"
yes"
