A WoMAN's QUESTION

Before I trust my fate to thee,
Or place my hand in thine;
Before you get your overcoat
Or help me on with mine;
Before 1 peril all for thee,
Question your soul tonight for me.
Look deeper still within thy soul,
And let me learn my fate;
Am all buttoned down the back
And is my hat on straight?
Let no false pity spare the blow,
But in true mercy tell me so.
Gaze on my face and answer true,
Before we start to go;
Canst thou detect the rosaline
And does the talcum show?
If so, at any pain or cost,
Oh, tell me now ere all is lost!
Before we stir a single step,
Stand back and let me know;
Does my back skirt touch on the sides
And does the white skirt show?
Frank II. Phillips in Puck

often the Case

I'VE tried keeping an account of our
expenditures but after all it didn't
give us a very clear idea of where the
money went"
"Why not?"
Both my wife and myself had too
many items that we wanted listed as
sundries."

SUPPOSE
II all that We say

II all that we say
In a single day
With never word left out,
Were printed each night
In clear black and white
II would prove queer reading no doubt
And then just suppose
Ere one's eyes he could close
He must read the days record through!
Then wouldn't one sigh
And wouldn't one try
A great deal less talking to doF
And 1 more than half think
That many a kink
Would be smoothed In lifes tahsieu thre@o'
II nine-tenths that we say
In q single day
Were left forever unsaid

The Hiawatha man moved them.
"Did you see me?' he said
Yes said the hog.

EAINT HEART

Faint heart. fear not! The path you dread
And shuddering think for you newborn,
Is worn by many feet, whose tread
It's every flower knows its every thorn.
Faint heart, be strong! The eyes that smile,
The lips that call to you each day
Some common greeting, may the while
Be walking cheerfuly your hardest way.
