should Strive to Win the Affection Of
Their Future Mother
in-Law.

Few girls realize how important II
that they should win the regard and
Affection OF their lovers mother Too
often, says the American Queen, they
.reat the matter In what may be
termed an of-hand manner In many
eases they say to themselves or to
friends prior To the first meeting
with their prospective mOthey-in-law
We'll, | suppose ! must make myself
As pleasant and amiable as possible,
and endcavGr to create a good inn
preston. But their words aud de-
sire lack sincerity.
Instead OF masking up their minds
to do everything in their power 10 win
the love Of the woman who Is to be
their second mother, they seem 10
comfort themselves with the rcIlcc-
ton that after all, they are not mar
ryinG their lovers parents probably
Will only SEE them at rare Intervals
and consequently they need not lyou-
BILE themselves to any great extent
about the matter.
A girl whose conduct is guided by
such thoughts can only be character

not consider what II m, lns to her
lover that she should be- on the hap
piest and most pleasant terms with
his mother, or how painful must be
the lattcr's feelings when She realizes
that her son Is about to marry eirl
whom she cannot like There is moth
ing which dctraris 50 much from

as the knowledge that little friendship

There are many girls who argue that

PAT RAFFERTY, AND THE TELLER
Doubt as to His Identity Worried This
lrishYnan

lrishman.
There is a rule in ops at least of the
savings banks in Massachusetts that
when a passbook is presented with an
order for payment from the depositor
the Identification of the payee is re-
quired for amounts exceeding S100
One day an Irishman, evidently not
long in this country, appeared at the
paving teller's window for a draft of
1923, presenting a passbook and an
order from the owner of the book to
pay Patrick Rafferty, the amount.
The order was in proper form, but
tGe payee was not known to the teller
DO you know any Of the officers
here?" he asked of Pat
No, sor" replied Pat.
We'll then, you will have to be
identified to us in some way"
What's that?" asked the now con-
fused Irishman.
"Why,' explained the teller, you
will have to get some one whom we
know and who knows you to come in
here and identify you. You might be
anybody and we want to be sure
that we are paying Patrick Raj crty.'
Pat looked dazcd and went over to
seat and for ten or fifteen minutes
looked stupidity at the passbook and
order.
Finally he approached the window
again. with the most dubious look inn
aginable on his face, and said SAY

the boys ran away from home and
slept in boxes and under doorsteps;
and one of the boys, Willie Jones,
was charged with stealing bicycle

Now, he is the son of Mr.. Jones, that

Mr. Jones says he thinks this great

a boy, and If your honor sees fit to let
Willie off he will send him down to
Virginia to his old uncie's farm, where
he can be looked after (here Mr.. Smith
was carried away with his argument),
