theaters, it may be well to repeat a
story that Lieut.. Gov. Woodruff told
at a dinner recently. 1t was OF a man
who invited a friend home to dinner
with him and there introduced him to
his wife, an accomplished beautiful
young woman, and to her twin sister,
who was her living image, and who
appeared equally charming to this WIS.,
itor. He was talkattve and entertain
ing at the table. but when he and his
host had adjourned TO the library tc
enjoy a cigar. he became silent and
thoughtful. His host rallied him, and
he finally admitted that he had some
thing on his mind that greatly puZ-
zled him. Pressed to reveal it he blurt-
ed out:
Bill you've got a charming wife.
She's pretty as a picture, affectionate.
