"That'll do you for sarcasm, Mrs.
Jobson," replied Mr.. Jobson, warning

said Mrs. Jobson. "And the others?"
"Oh, I've got plenty of ideas as to

''That will be nice one, too," said
Mrs. Jobson. "Please go on"
'sThen I'm going to get view of you

Mr.. Jobson. II am convinced that when
you see yourself as others see you in

abandon the rainy-day skirt at once
and forever, but you'll pat your disin-
terested husband on the back and call
him philanthropist, with capital P,
