We heard good one the other day on
the wife Of one Of Icons we'll known
citizens. 1t seems the lady had been
inquiring what her husband did with all
the money he made, SO after talking
over the matter with her he entered
into written contract with his wife,
the terms of which provided that he
was to turn over to her every cent of
his income for period Of thirty-one
days, and in return she was to pay all
the family expenses during the month
and pay him one cent the first day, two
cents the second and double the allow
ance each day for the thirty-one days.
She thought she had made a fine bargain
and was counting on having q goodly
sum of money at the end of a month,
but she had seven kinds Of Ats when
she took pencil and commenced to
figure how much she would have to pay
her husband during the month, and
found out that she had obligated, her
self to pay him the small sum Of s1O,-
