HUSBAND OF 72 A ROMEO

When May weds December the result OF
the little blind gods bad aim generally
proves disastrous and the case of F. Gard

OF 70 took unto himself a blushing bride of
l6 proves no exception to the rule. The
venerable bridegroom. in whose ancient
heart the dying fire of love and passion has
so suddenly sprung to life. was married
three weeks ago to the youthful Mary
Michael. In the blindness OF his infatua-

marriage.
When the happy couple arrived at their
home at Chicago Heights after the cere-
mony they found Herbert, the son, await

struck at loves sweet dream. He seized
the old man by his flowing whiskers and
dragged him around-the house. swearing
that his aged parent had taken leave Of his
senses. which. he interpoiated. had never
amounted to anything anyway. When the
unhappy man at last escaped from his In
furiated offspring he fed with his bride to
his room, but his troubles had only begun.
Morning arrived and the couple found
that they had been locked into their room.
In vain they implored their jailer through
the keyhole to release them. They were
told they could crawl out through the
window. Fortunately the window was not
far from the ground and the elderly bride
groom succeeded in falling on flower bed
without breaking any bones. He then got
ladder and Romeo-like bade his Juliet
descend TO his loving arms. Juliet. however.

through the window and they would be
homeless. Accordingly Romeo departed
In search OF provisions. while Juliet sat
by the window with pail OF water to repel
stormers.
The gallant garrison maintained the siege
after this fashion for two weeks, cautiously
watching the movements OF the enemy and
taking turns in foraging expeditions. From
time to time they would appeal for terms

London newspapers have not yet finished
their silly season discussion about
whether the tipping nuisance is greater
in the United States than in England. II
is agreed that when Americans learn the
ropes" they md tipping cheaper in Lon

waiter is often satisfied with tip of four
