believe that such stun as he gets
off when he writes those anti-union
ads is really a benefit to the unions
that we are prone to entertain the
belief that it would be well 10 give
it wider circulation. Far be il from
us to get red in the face and throw
a fit when Charley takes his pen in
hand and rids his system of its ac

even if his advertising stunts did

giving Charley so much pleasure He
is not to be taken seriously. any E;ore
than his bellywash and intestine dis

labor leader who takes Charley Seri

board box.
Among other things the lunch in

cake with pink icing on it.
The stuff was too sweet for Davies.
He always preferred pie to cake any
how. But it seemed a sin to waste a
lot of perfectly good cake-thats his
explanation, though it doesn't excuse
him-sO he divided the slices up into
neat cubes and wrapped them in tissue
paper taken from the same lunch box.
These portions he dealt out to the
pretty stenOgTaphers on that floor, ex-

brother or somebody had been married

The several pretty stenographers have
placed chunks of that 10-cent lunch
cake under their pillows every night
since then, little suspecting that their
dreams would avail them no more than
the dreams that follow a welsh rabbit

they read this that there is a free and

"And maybe you want a little Of the

LaBelle expressed his willingness to
take a dose provided Wright was ply

he undertook to do so, he was wholly
unequal to the task before he had half
finished. LaBelle gave him a beating
