Pointed Paraqraphs.

Contracting a disease in reality expands

A short acquaintance is always trying
to make touch.
Experience teaches man how dishon-
est other men are.
OF course, it isn't a crime to be wo-
man-neither is it manly.
Turkeys are innocent birds; almost any
silly woman can stuff them.
Some clearinghouse spring chickens
are hens in their second childhood.
A small voice in a man often has the
same effect as hole in nickel.
Nature is supposed to be infallible. yet
it gave the rooster a comb, but no hair.
Responsibility may be contagious. but
some people fail to catch it at the right

Go where duty calls-and don't stand
around with your hands in your pockets
after you get there.

Science and Industry.

The renovated White House has over
y miles of wire.
The cost of building the Suez canal
was nearly $l0o,000,0O0.
Basket making employs half a mil
lion persons in Germany.
More than $4,000 acres of land in the
Indian possessions of Great Britain are
devoted to the cultivation of tea, nine
tenths of the area being in Assam and
Bengal. Production is officially esti-
mated at l91, 100000 pounds.
The most surprising property of
aluminium is it's newly discovered pow
sr of giving a fine, raZor-like edge to
steel cutlery. Magnified a thousand
times, the knife edge produced on the
ordinary milestone appears rough and
jagged, while that yielded by the alum
mum sharpener is straight and smooth.
The irrigation works recommended
by the geological survey give interest
TO the report on the irrigation works of
India. The net revenue to the govern
nent was 1856 per cent on an outlay of
s110,C00,000. The value of the crops
raised on the irrigated area during the
year is estimated at s135, 900, 900, sum
in excess Of the capital outlay.
1t is estimated that so per cent. of the
breadstuffs consumed in Great Britain
come from abroad, and the United
States furnishes the bulk OF it. On ac-
count of Liverpool's pre-eminence as a
port it has become the largest market
for grain in the British empire, and it
is claimed that it is now the second
largest milling center in the world.

Reflections Of a Bachelor.

After man settles down to matrimony
settle up.
If a woman could be sick abed and SHOP
at the same time she would be pretty
near to happiness
1t makes a buxom woman awful nerv-
Gus when she sees her husband reading
the anti-fat advertisements.
Some women's figures are so different
with the clothes off that they don't know
them themselves when they see them
To feel that she is in good standing a
woman has to have her doctor and heI
minister just the way a man has to have
his banker.
