JOpkin's Mistake.

woman got hold of newspaper with
clipping cut cut out of it she would
never rest until she had secured COM
plete paper and read the missing item.
This struck Jopkins as a very shrewd
and Machiavelian plan of exposing this
well.known weakness Of lovely woman,
and be resolved that he would put it
into practice.
So that night, when he went home
from the office there SYSTEMATICALLY pro-
troded from his coat pocket the days
paper, from which be had neatly cut
paragraph referring to the rings of Ju'
piter or some such matter.
He threw the paper to one side in
careless way, and after supper he noted
with an unholy g!ee that Mrs. Jopkins
had secured it, and was running her
eye over the bargain ads. and working
her way, after the manner Of her sex,
through the personals, marriage no.
tices. and back to the telegrapblc dis
patches.
Presently Jopkins noticed sudden
and suspicious frown overcast her face.
She had come upon the hiatus made by
the waggish penknife. Jopkins reveled
with internal hilaritv, bnt preserved an
outward appearance Of innocent uncon.
seriousness.

the paper gently aside, I'm going to

had lots of fun. She came back pres.

another paper under her shawl. She
went upstairs and Jopkins leaned back
in his chair and shook his whole form
with joy.
Best joke I ever got off, he said to
himself Won't she be sold when tell
her?
Mrs. Jopkins remained upstairs about
20 minutes, and when she came down
she had on her hat and street dress, and
Jopkins felt his knees shake when he
looked into her eye,
'Wh-where are you going?'
Where am I going?' said his wife.

Look at that!' said Mrs. Jopk,ns,
thrusting the paper in his face. Cut it
out to hide it from me. did you? To

Jopkins looked where her finger
pointed and read:

A cold SILVER ran over Jopkins. He
was innocent but he had neglected to
read the other side of the clipping when
he cut it out. He began to explain, and
the milkman says he was still at it when
he called with his regular morning sup.
