oUAKER BIEDITATIONs.


Quite naturally an empty head is
most easily ratified
MaLTimony has caused many a man to
drift with the tide.
When a girl marries for money the
devil generally acts a best man.
We all have an aim in life, but most
OF US are mighty poor marksmen-
All the worlds a stage, with at least
a thousand understudies for every star.
Ever notice that the girl with a bro
ken heart always manages to save a
few of the pieces2
Many man attracts no more atten-
ton In the world than a Thermometer
on a pleasant day.

it proper to thank a man for escort

When young boys say a girl is
stuck up they unintentionally pay
her a compliment. It means in their
opinion. that she is reserved; that she
is nothing that is common"
Don't look into a crowd Of lOafers

look the other way.
When a young man escorts a girl
home, he should thank her for tine
