One of our business men and
church members, who usually spends
his evenings with the crowd in the
drug stores or pool room, took a
resolve the other night to give more
time and attention to his patient wife.
He went home, gave his wife an afec-

best looking woman in town. His
helpmate trans6xed him with an angry
look. 1T seems to me, she remarked
icily, that you would do better spend

to be coming in here at bedtime 50
