Every love affair is like a progress
i've game of cards. The players have
moved up from another table where they
had different partners, but the game they

Bill Nye often spoke his witticism
with the greatest truths. Among th
most noticeable, most Nyeish and mos
apropos is the following: "a man ma,
ride on the back coach of train to saw
interest on his money until the conduc
tor comes around stop his watch night
to prevent wear and tear; leave his i
and ~ without dot to save ink pastur
his mothers grave to save corn; but
man of his kind is a gentleman and

sters' convention entertainment held il
