HOT WAS TUESDAY
FOR UNCLE N
Small Domestic Disturbance
Sends Him to Old Friend
for Consolation.

That the mercury stood about
ninety eight in the shade last Tues.
day is a fact most people are
aware OF, but that It was down
right hot can best he testified to
hv Uncle Henry Medler, a genus
homo oil the African persuasion,
who with his darling Lou reside
in a suburb near Traders wagon
yard.
II was so hot in tact that the
poor Louisianian went with tears
in his eyes to tell his tale OF woe
to one Smoky" Miller and a
friend oil his withal. Uncle Henry
is from the south and ninety eight
in the shade does not make him
complain OF the heat on ordinary
occasions but Tuesday the rays OF
the n were augmented by a
small domestic disturbance which
waxed so warn that II was meet
Tor him to betake himself to his
%consoling friend.
Smoky tremblingly accompanied
the good old man home rs at each
step he planned a way whereby the
old couple could he reconciled aud
live in Joy together. Smoky had
been down on a similar mission
before aud instead oil reconciling
the two lovers he met with a vol
ley OF flat irons and griddles which
almost proved fatal to his exterior.
Therefore he changed his tactics a
bit and won with his diplomatic
instinct.
Al sight OF him Aunt Lou burst
into tears, complaining that Uncle
Henry had struck her with n broom
stick when she didn't done nothln'
There-up-on Uncle declared that
she had scalded him with a cup
oil boiling coffee and that he did
not strike her with the stick but
had merely raped her one as a
reprimand Tor he had always
thought il a good policy not to
allow his wife to throw coffee on
him without first giving him warn
ing. Whereat she declared. with
sobs, that her lord and master
had abused her about the purchase
OF a trying size chicken and that
she merely threw the coffee on him
to cool him off a bit.
Here interrupted the peace
maker and after a fifteen minute
talk on the beauty oil harmony, he
went his way leaving Uncle Henry
and Aunt Lou in one another's
arms.
