Ouaker's Meditations
(Philadelphia Record)


 Many a man gets up steam with out spouting any hot air.
 No, Maude, dear; there is noth- ing remarkable in the fact that for est fires start in the mountain ranges.
 If some people would only re- member the answers to half the questions they ask they would have a superior education.
 The man who thinks twice before he speaks realizes that it is better to leave thing unsaid than to try to unsay it.
 ''The language of love is the language of the eyes," unused the poet. "The lips being busy with other things suppose" suggested the mere man.
 The man who closes his eyes to his own faults is like the ostrich that buries its head in the sand and imagines no one can see it.

Justifying Bad Language

George Carlisle, who has made Maramec, Oklahoma, a "cussless" town, has formulated ten reasons why a man should swear. He cal culates the very irony of them should turn a man or a woman against the habit of taking the name of the Deity in vain. They are:
 1. Because it is such an elegant way of expressing one's thoughts.
 ?. Because it is such conclusive proof of taste and good breeding.
 3. Because it is a sure way of making oneself agreeable to one's friends.
 4. Because it is positive evi- dence of acquaintanceship with good literature.
 5. Because it furnishes such a good example and training for young boys. 6. Because it is such a good way of increasing one's self-respect.
 7. Berause it is just what a mans mother enjoys having her son do.
 8. Because it looks so well in print.
 9. Because it is such help to manhood and virtue in many ways. 10. Because it is such an infalli- ble way of improving one's chances in the hereafter.
