lWg WISE WORDS.

A man is generally on his mettle

eye.
When Fame and Fortune travel to-

seat.
Nothing venture, nothing have" is
generally true, but it doesn't apply to

One way to distract your attention
from your vices is to parade your

The ideal man only exists in the
mind of the woman who has never
married.
Force of habit would probably
prompt a dentist to look gift horse

The things that come to those who
wait are generally the things that no
one else wants.
Men always admire clever women,
but somehow or other they always
marry the silly ones.
Many a man looks down on his
neighbor who is really head and
shoulders above him.
There isn't anything much more
superhuous than birthdays to a wom-
an who has passed forty-five.
The man who perforce dimes at
fifty-cent table d'hote gets ac-
customed to taking things as they
come.
A fnancier is simply a man who
demonstrates the truth of the old
saying that a fool and his money are

A PoULTICE BAG.

Take a cast-off knitted Alma"
band, cut shoulder straps from either
back or front, leaving them fastened
at one side of the band. Stitch band
across the bottom, thus making band
into bag. Sew on tape at each
side of the bottom of the bag. These
tapes should be long enough to tie
around child's waist and the shoul-
der straps can be passed around the
neck and pinned AS children usual
ly object to wearing poultices, this
