If any little word of mine
Can make one life the brighter;
Ii any little song of mine
Can make one heart beat lighter.
God help me to speak that little word
And take my bit of singing
And dropit in some lonely vale
And set the echoes ringing
Have you ever noticed how much
more popular with the men people a
girl is who is not slangy and does
not talk loud and shrill? A group
were talking not long ago of young
lady and one OF the party, young
man said 81 thought her an awfully
sweet girl until one night l heard
her say Gosh, you bet I'll do it. ;"
No matter how much slang man
may talk himself ''ruby lips never
seem quite as sweet when they utter
GoshH 1t takes the bloom off the
flower and the blush from the peach.
A fashion has been set by Andrew
Carnegie, Mark Twain and Senator
Depew, to have legends every where
about their homes. Mr.. Carnegie has
selected for his dinner gong, GA
Right Welcome Sound. 1t is sur
prising how many quotations appro-
pirate to walls, as we'll as the var
ious pieces of furniture, can be found
This is fair sample of the way
some women shop. The clerks try to
look pleasant when they see such peo-
pie come in but they would hate to
have their real feelings displayed to
view.
She went to the store
And bought Il little sack;
The thing didn't suit
And soon she took it back.

The next one was blue;
She thought she wanted black:
She really thought she did,
And so she took it back
And so She took it back.

A girl is always willing to admit
she is fat if she doesn't weigh more
than ITO pounds.
A man is like piece of cloth war;
ranted to wash and martimony is
the laundry. 1t may improve him,
give him starch and freshen him up,
or it may take all the color out of
him. You have to take the chances.
Too many homes are kept together
by the ''hired girl" as vulgar small
town parlance has it. When she
leaves all the world is dark and
dreary. The model housewife is the
one whose home is not so wrecked as
is described in this poem.
What makes the world seem dark and drear,
A place wherein is left no cheer
No glad remembraaces of gee
No hope of happy days to be:
Our maid has left
What makes the sharer of my
Appear with black streaks on her nose.
With stringy hair and words that sting,
And only hate for everything:
Our maid has left
Why do our darlings look forlorn:
Why are their little dresses torn:
Why are they sticky. and. poor dearS
Why are their faces streaked with tears:
Our maid has left
WIZ. when the busy day is done.
Do / sit at my desk and shan
The thought of going home. alacR.
Or hope the train may lump the track:
Our maid has left

before July has come. The white
summers are so becoming too
