WOMEN NEVER CAN SEE JOKE
Had Recounted One That Had
Been Told to Him.

Brown me johnson the other morn
ing hurrying along the street. Tho
latter had Il parcel under his arm, and
Brown, always inquisitive, wanted tc
know what it contained.
"Well," said Johnson, "if you must
know, I've just bought q pair of CATERS
very nice ones, too
where att" asked Brown.
"Oh, | dort't know the name, but
it's Il little shop just down that alley
across there said johnson.
"Ha-ha!" laughed Brown, who al.
ways liked his little joke, then they
must be alley-gaiters."
This so tickled johnson that he
made up his mind that he must tell
that to his wife, so, on reaching home,
he burst into the room, and laughed
until his wife thought he would never
stop.
She could not make out what on
earth was the joke, so johnson started
to tell her.
"Ha-ha, he-le! Oh, lor, such a joke!
I Just met Brown, and he asked ms
what I'd got in my parcel.
II told him I'd bought a new pair of
leggings, but didn't know the name Of
the shop, but it was just down the
court.
HE Immediately made n good joke
out of 1T. He said, Good! Then
you've got two crocodiles! What !!
You can't see it? Well. I'm blest!"
said he, as his wife maintained a Sc
rious expression. That's just the
worst of women. They can't see n
joke when it is staring them in the
face, / saw it in a moment"
Then he went out into the fresh air,
slamming the door as he did so.-LoD.

The council, guided by the general medicals board, has prepared to strike at the presence of insidious diseases and at alcoholism in all mili- tary commands.
 Decisions were announced today as follows;
 First, that under military control an effective zone shall be created about all military commands as the most practical and effective measure 10 pre- vent insidious diseases Second, that these military zones shall serve also as means of control of alcoholic bev- erages to the troops. These decisions are reached by the council after ex- haustive study of conditions today among great European armies. Zones about the military commands will therefore be created and condi- lions in these zones will be guarded by military measures so as to prevent the spread of disease. The two military arms of the government officially recognize that confluence is compat- ible with health,
