plainly to be seen that the newly mar

q fact, however, of which their waiter
took absolutely no cognlzance, inasmucr
as he continued to hang about their table
for an unconscionable length of time
Finally the thing got on my nerves
Calling to the man. l said:
why don't you allow that couple
few moments to themselves? Can't you
see that they've just been marriedT

"One funny thing have learned
about human nature" said the drug
store cashier, "is the habit many people
have of marking their own name In the
City directory. They do that because the
city directory is the only place where
their name ever gets into print and It
has such u fascination for them that
they can't resist calling attention to It,
A funny old man who likes to talk
tells me that he has made special trips
to different parts OF the city just ia
mark his name In the directories oil

In red ink before It. asked him what
good 1t did. He said none possibly, al
though he Is u teacher OF languages and
may get few calls on account OF that

hunting city directories, but every time
they happen to see new one they
