flea thinks about n hairless dog.
Some men divide their time between
being mean to their wives and being
nice to other women.
Daughter selects sheer nainsook with
baby ribbon rosettes and hand en-
broidered medallions when she buys u
new combination. But mother wants
something substantial that will make

A woman can take one look at an
other woman and tell whether she is a
real blond or a peroxide affair but
man has to marry her before he can
tell the difference.
The reason a princess knows that
she is going to make a grand house
keeper when she gets married is be-
cause she can iron a handkerchief by
FASTING it on the mirror of her bed
room dresser.

taminated If his clothes touched yours

he gets mad and slams the door and
goes out. Then she will sit down and
write long letter to her mother and
tell her what a grand man her hus-
band is, and how thoughtful and gen.
erous he is. and how happy they are.
When one of the children Is seriously
Ill father viii tell mother to go to

will sit around and read for a few
hours and then sneak or to bed And
as soon as mother hears father snor-
ing she will get up and watch the child
all night and then prepare breakfast
as though nothing had happened. And
father will go downtown and go around
hunting for sympathy by stating that
he didn't get wink of sleep all night
because he had to stay up and nurse
a sick child.
