enough to be willing to play provi-
dence, wheeI-horse, accessory and
general factotum for you. ,.
My sympathy goes out to the
one who convinces you that he has
the largest amount of emotional
steam up. ....
You are the kind of a woman
who win resent as personal af.
fronts, as means by which you are
neglected, the old friends of the
man you marry. You will break up
his friendships relentlessly You
will hound him into a dress suit
every evening by accusing him OF
being unwilling to sacrifice his
comfort to your pleasure.
You win spend the day dragging
your expensive gowns about to be
looked at and envied and will want
the evening to afford you the chance
to show on at the opera and the
theater. That drop of artistic tenn
perament" which put the stage bee
to buzzing In your head will cause
you to become ohsessed with the idea
that all the worlds a stage and your

BENNY'S BOOMERANG
DAILY Discontinued storr,

Practical jokers might come and 70,
but Benny Broadnutt went on forever.
And how he went on!
On Tuesday evening, Benny, in the
course Of his going on, met Harold
Highballer at the club and offered him
a loaded cigar. 1t was a plump weed,
and an expensive looking gold belt en-
cased its fat stomach. Harold took It
with thanks and alacrity.
Harold Highballer was a penurtous
battleship salesman, and later in the
day, when he met Simon Sneezen-
chewit, his only customer, he was glad
to be able to present him with Benny's
loaded Cigar.
Now Benny Broadnutt was going to
marry old man Sneezenchewit's daugh-
ter, and the old man felt under obliga-
tions to him. So, still later on that
same Tuesday, when he met Benny,
who had remained at the club while our
story was developing. he rendered him
the transferable smoke. Benny. i'm
practical in all save jokes. failed to
recognize it.
''Got a match?' he asked.
Harold Highballer was near.

Denies Lyons Statements

Writing to one OF the New York
newspapers relative to a published
letter purported to have been signed
and written by Judge Robert Lyon,
Of Abbeville, s. c., rejecting on con-
ditions in that state, Dr. Isaac
Branch. of Abbeville, qualities some
body for the Ananias club in most
unequivocal terms. Here is what he
says in part:
This article is a tissue of false
hoods from beginning to end.
1T is lie, in the first place, be-
cause we have never had a Judge
Robert Lyon at Abbeville, nor in the
state of South Carolina.
1T is lie, in the second place, be-
cause there is positively no such dis
tress as the writer speaks Of.
1T is a lie, in the third place, be-
cause not a solitary negro has been
sent from Abbeville courthouse or
from the district to aid in the work
1t Charleston"
The doctor concludes by remarking
that he would subscribe his full name
to the epistle, as he is personally
known to at least one hundred New
York merchants.
