talented young women that the famous
old city on the James has produced,
said one of the members of the colony
yesterday Miss Jessie I.ansche, Miss

them in their vaudeville tours.
Miss Lansche is the star of the trio,

said to have deep, full contralto tones
which call forth a great deal of favorable
&C mment The mezzo parts are sung by

LUKE M,LUKE SAYS

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
A man never worries about saving time
until he finds he hasn't much left.
A conversation Is usually a 15-minute
space wasted by a good listener who has
to be courteous to good talker.
Don't worry, girls. The men may knock
the transparent skirts But you don't see
many of them going around blindfolded
on sunny days.
A man will brag about his wife in other
respects. But he will never admit that
she has a sense of humor.
Cupid gets the credit. But the special
scenery a girl carries is what a boob
falls for.
Live SO that when you die your friends
won't have to square their consciences
when they say they are sorry you are
gone.
1t doesn't matter how truthful we know
man to be, we never believe him when
he tells us how he got that black eye.
When the bride quits Dragging about
her husband and merely admits that he
isn't any worse than lots Of other men,
you can bet that the honeymoon Is full OF
embalming fluid.
You may have noticed that the man who
admires sensible girls always married the
other kind.
The old fashioned woman who could put
lot OF pots and skillets on the stove and
dig up a square meal for five kids out OF
nothing now has daughter whose hus-
band would starve to death II she ever
lost the can opener.
