Wise Bridegroom.

"Alert?" repeated former Vice
President Charles w. Fairbanks when
questioned concerning one of his DO
litical opponents. why, he's as alert
as Providence bridegroom | heard

answered without a moments hesita-

forgotten myself entirely!' "-Lippin-

characterize the Spanish bull fight, the
