A British Army exam
iner had before him a stu
pid candidate. The man
proving, apparently. una
BILE to answer the most
simple questions. the ex-
aminer finally grew impa-
tent, and in a burst Of
sarcasm demanded:
Now, let it be supposed,
Sir, that you were a cap
tain in command Of infan-
try; that in your rear was
an impossible abyss; that
on both sides of you there
rose perpendicular rocks
of tremendous height; that
in front of you lay the
enemy, outnumbering you
ten to one. What, sir, in
such an emergency, would
you do?"
We'll, Sir" replied the
applicant for military dis
tinction, II should resign,

He-"My dear, would you answer
question that means much to me. one
calculated to affect my finances in
material way?"
She-"Well, what is It 2"
He-"It is about those summer furs

HOLDING 1T OVER HIM.

Il shouldn't care to be the wife of
a man who never smoked"
well, it is comfortable to see ones
husband sitting down after dinner to
enjoy his cigar, and then there is
something rather soothing about the
aroma Of good cigar, too'
"Oh, don't care anything about the
comfort of it or the aroma; but as
long as my husband smokes, it will
always be so easy to tell him how to
begin when he insists that we have got
to economize."

THE PINK OF PER-
FICTION.

"Will you have some of

auntie dear?" asked the
dear little girl.
Certainly, d airing.
Which shall I take-the
pink or the whittier"

Auntie selected the
white. She knew that
white needed no artificial
coloring, and she was very
particular about what she
ate. So she took the
white. She ate some, and
then the dear little girl
came back.
"Auntie." she said, "I'll
bet you don't know what
Is the difference between
the pink and the white al
monds."
why, do you mean the
color?"
YES"
what is the difference :?
I'm sure I don't know"
said auntie playfully. 1t is
always so amusing to the
young when their grown
ups confess ignorance.
And they are so glad to be
Of any assistance, as far
as imparting information.
Auntie was Of that oblig-
ing kind.
well, I'll tell you the
difference, If you really
