His Scheme Worked.

1t is related that a certain man was
recently very sad because his wife
had gone out OF town on visit,
which she would not shorten In spite
of his appeals to her to- come home.
He finally hit upon plan to induce
her to return. He sent her copy OF
each OF the local papers with one item
clipped out, and when she wrote to
find out what 1t was he had clipped
out he refused to tell her.
The scheme worked admirably, In
less than n week she was home TO
find out what 1t was that had been
going on that her husband didn't want
her TO know about.-Pittsburg Press
