Reflections OF A Bachelor
(New York Press)


The longer ago a woman was
the easier she can remember to
forget when it was.
A queer thing about the lies
you tell is how brazen they
seem when you hear somebody
else tell the same ones.
The reason a girl likes to
wash her hair is, how romantic
it would be to have a prince
catch her drying it all down in
the sun.
No matter how much a wo.
man is sure a man loves her she
wishes it was more so she could
ask him to say it in bigger lam
guage.
One great trouble a woman
saves herself by marrying a
preacher is how she doesn't
have to nag him to get him to
go to church.

Modern Restaurant.
In primitive times the only places
In London where the public could be
entertained with food had been the
cooks shops. The famous East Cheap
was great thoroughfare, down which
the stalls OF the butchers a.ternated
with those of the cooks. You chose a
joint Mt the flesh market, and you car.
ried it next door to be cooked for
you by Il certain hour. If you wished
for wine, you must bring that with
you, for the cooks sold no liquor. nl.
though they seem to have provided. as
time went on, more and more of the
natural accompaniments of meat, such
us bread, vegetables and pastry.
This habit continued until we'll into
the reign Of Elizabeth, and SO long
as such an inconyenient custom pre-
vailed there could have been no real
comfort for any citizen who chose to
dine abroad. He must have had as
much trouble with porterage and bas-
kets as country party has today at

Shakespeare came up to London a
remarkable change took place in the

The nature of this change lay in the
sudden development of the tavern and

There is a death at the end

on toward the grave we hope
to be blessed with good health
and when we have a friend who
has suffered for years with
some painful malady, it is good
news, indeed, when we are told
of that friends complete recov-

remedy that made the cure
we are bound to have confidence
in it. This is why Root Juice
is so we'll spoken of over the
country.
