To satisfu 2 Gr,,ane

Sir Thomas Lipton, apropos of bach. elorhood and marriage, said in an after dinner speech in Chicago: Each elors, l admit, are villains, but it is shame to play such tricks on them as It is customary everywhere to do. A nasty trick was played on a bachelor friend of mine at dance. A woman was reproaching him for never having married, when her husband, a little bored, perhaps, said gruGly: He says he could have cut me out and married you If he had wanted to- The woman started. Indeedl' she cried. Why didn't he do 1t, then?' He says he owed me grudge,' the husband ex- vlained. with a chuckle"
