Reflections Of a HachClnr.

Life is the oyster and love is the
horseradish sauce.
Prosperity has its disadvantages; it's
the butter side Of the dropped bread
that picks up the most dirt
There ought to be q law against any
girl giving an old bachelor anything
for Christmas that he can't eat.
Convince q man and he viii generally
own UP to III: make a woman own up
to it and it's Q good sign that she isn't
convinced.
After a woman has found out that
her husband was once in love with an
other woman il takes her about as long
to love him again as much as she did
as il did when she was a little girl 70
get used to her doll after her mother
had got Il new head put on it.
The average politician is a lot like q
CorkscrcW; the crookeder he is the
more pull he's got.
# babies discussed their mothers as
much rs mothers discussed their babies
the women would soon quit having
them.
The average man has got too much
sense to he a good actor when he is
pretending to a girl that he is sorry
he kissed her.
The only thing that Il girl thinks is
worse, when she is with man, than
to have her garter break is to have the
nose blecd.-NeW York Press

The thought that ranklcs particular
ly deep in England at this time is
that it is English money which has
purchased the modern suns and the
lavish stores If ammunition with
which hundreds of Englishmen have
been slaughtered in South Africa. The
greater part of the Transvaal tax in
recent years has been supplied by
alien miners, mostly Englishmen. and
this has almost all been expended in
careful preparation for the present
war. The Beers have been getting
ready for the struggle for years. and
instead of making public improvements
or benefting the taxpayers in any way
they nave saved up the millions paid
by the English miners to be used in 4
war against England. No wonder the
popular sentiment in England i in
tensely in favor Of forcing the W. %
victorious conclusion regardless Of
time and treasure.
