LIKE THE REST OF US.
Before Marriage Everything Is Sweet
and Lovely, After We Get Down
to Earth Again.

George, dear she said, a night or two
before the wedding, according to Tit-Bits,
'do you think it possible that our love and
our married life can become the common
place, coldly practical love and life of the
married people we see around us? Oh,
George, my heart would break if l thought
So"
sionately. I'VE love each other too tender:
ly. too fondly for that Our love is not of
the ordinary kind, my darling, and our lives
will not be so. All, no, my angel; that
can never be-"
And the other day she said: 'I say,
George, how would you like pork for dinner
with apple sauce? You would? All right,
then; and don't you forget that feeding
bottle for the baby, or I'll send you back
after it, and mind that you don't keep din
ner waiting.
And he, with falling-off of the passion
of ten years ago, replied: 'All right, Lou;
and l wish you'd sew button on the back
part of those striped trousers of mine;
you'll find them hanging over a chair in
our room Don't have the pork as dry as
last time, and you watch the baby's cold.

to me. There's my bus. Good-by!"

Condensing a Document.

The young man took piece of pa

laid the paper on his knee. 81 will
have something important to say to
you in minute, Miss JONES'" he said.
Then he read over carefully what was
written on the paper and crossed out
a word "Superfuous,' he said, half
to himself. He went over it again and
crossed out another word. cts just
as strong without that he muttered.
''We are all too prone to use adjec-
tives and adverbs, anyway" He
picked up the paper and seemed about
to begin to read from it, but suddenly
stopped. "That whole sentence might
as we'll come out" he said. ''The
meaning is perfectly clear without it.
Conciseness is really the crying need
of the hour" Then, turning to the
girl, he said: "Be mine" Thus we
see the power of habit. For years his
duty had been to edit the 'copy" of

Feared the Fate of Hobson.

When the late sirdar came home
from his victorious Khartoum cam
paign he was received at a London
railway station by an enthusiastic
crowd of friends, admirers and we'll
wishers. While he was surrounded by
many brave men and fair women, all
shaking him heartily by the hand
and otherwise congratulating him, a
voice was heard from the background
calling out:
"Take care, Kitchener. Remember
Hobson!"
This, of course, had reference to
the exploits of the gallant American
naval lieutenant.
The sirdar blushed, even through
his swarthy Egyptian tanned com
plexion, and great many people
laughed at the apt allusion. Those
who know Kitchener and his innate
modesty will the more readily under
stand the peculiar aptness of the re-
mark.-Cleveland Plain Dealer
