Eleanor on a Thermometer.

After Eleanor had been going to
school for three weeks, she arrived at
home in great state of joyful excite
ment.
ION, mamma, mammal she cried,
I'm going to be thermometer
Mamma was bewildered and tried
to find out more. But all that Eleanor
knew was that the teacher had told
should be thermometer"
At last mamma had to resign herself
to let it remain mystery, but later
in the day she met the teacher and
found out that because Eleanor had
been very, very good, the teacher had
decided to make her a monitor. -Chica

TALK is NOT CHEAP.

A Chicago woman talked too
much and it cost her $500. A Chic
ago man talked too much and it
cost him $4,000. The man and
woman are husband and wife and
they talked slanderously about two
pretty girl neighbors.
A jury of twelve men awarded
damages to the girl plaintiffs. The
jury probably hit the pocket of the
man harder than it did that of the
woman because by gossiping he
was setting bad example to his
sex, which is supposed to leave the
affairs of the home neighborhood
in the tender mercies of the tongues
Of the housewives.
The man may learn a lesson.
The woman probably won't. Man
may legislate against SANDER until
the doomsday adjournment of the
general assembly, but the last
earthly sound will be the clack Of
the tongue over the backyard fence.
AL gossip isn't SANDER, but the
line of demarcation is faint. Gossip
leads to innuendo and innuendo to
SANDER. It's vicious weapon, but
probably as long as the human race
exists it will be brought into daily
service. Once in while the weapon
kicks, gunlike, and the world pious-
ly rejo1ces and then goes on with
the old game of gossip.

Finally he mentioned to the justice

said. "You come with me and we'll
get something to eat right away" A
