wait next Christmas dinner for papa. :"
But Of course you know where he

stared in establishment into Miss Dam

1T is possible. Papa is ducking his

Forty Is the age at which q man Is

Forty Is old to a man Of 80 and
young to a man of 50.
At 40 some men quit sowing wild

Forty is an imaginary line between
youth and old age.
Some men are 40 at 20 and some
at 60.
At 40 a man is supposed to have
reached years of discretion and gen.
orally he has unless some woman
wills 1t otherwise.
There are men of 40 who believe 1t
Is unlucky for one to look over ones

Men have been grandfathers at 40
and yet found it hard to obtain credit.
When a man is 40 he begins to fear
that he may have married too early.
Forty is the age at which most men

A good neck depends much upon the
general health, but considerable may
be done that is of direct benefit.
Many an otherwise lovely neck is
ruined by an awkward poise of the

Thinness of the neck should be an
easy fault to overcome.
