''She! Who?'
"The burglar. It is woman, which
simplifies matters very much. She has

and rested his throbbing temple on his
hand. The throb was due to great
mental activity. He could not think
clearly without throbs. "The ordinary
police method" he said at last, would
be to put out the dragnet and arrest
every red haired woman in town and
indict the one who had just combed
her hair, but that is unsatisfactory to

One day certain professor Of mathe-
mates at the Ohio university prepared
to set out on short journey on horse
back. He was an absentminded per-
son and while saddling the animal was
thinking out some intricate problem.
Some students stood near and watched
him abstractedly place the saddle on
hind part before.
"Oh, professor" exclaimed one Of the
group, ''you are putting the wrong end
of your saddle foremost
young man." replied the professor,
with some tartness, "you are entirely
too smart. How do you know it is
wrong when l have not yet told you in
which direction l intend to go?'-Lip-

MaheI,s Secret.

When Mabel smiles she shows the world
Two rows of teeth so dazzling white
They almost rival Alpine SHOWS;
Indeed, no words that I may write
Will half portray the lovely sight.
They are the envy of the girls,
The charm which most attracts the men,
Who almost fight to reach her side
There's always one and sometimes ten
Waiting for her to smile again.
And though the praise to Mabel goes,
And all the admiration, yet

One satisfaction which I get
