 LUKE MLUIxE SAYS
 What a nice. quiet, restful place this world would be if we all thought twice before we spoke.
 There are all sorts of spineless boobs III the world, including the man whose wife carries a night key and won't let him have one
 When a girl gets the idea that she can't live without man she marries him and finds out that she can
 As lcng as the front parlor is clean a princess cant see why the rest of the house requires any attention.
 The average husband isn't such a bad scout. He is usually willing to gratify his wife's smallest wish--if she makes it small enough.
 The old-fashioned small boy who used to take lis Christmas watch to pieces to see what made it tick, now has a son who can take the engine of his Christ mas roadster to pieces, reassemble it and only have 2S parts left over
 Women are so hungry for details that a modern fashionable wedding isn't re- ported prorerly unless the Sassiety Bdi- tor tells what kind of underwear tho bride were, how many hairpins she used in fixing up her coiffure, and the brand of face powder she used in making up for the part.
 When a married man can't get even with his wife in any other way he al- ways slams the door hard behind rim when he leaves the house.
 Isn't it funny how the neghbors all ways beat mans wife to the knowl- edge that he is running around with some other woman?
 A man is willing to leave the reward ing of his friends in the hands of the Lord, but he wants to attend to the punishment of his enemies himself.
 Never waste any time in trying to ex- plain when you have gotten yourself into jam. Your friends won't need an ex- planation, and your enemies and your wife won't believe a blame word you say. A breakfast table conversation con- sist of rapid-fire monologue from the dame in the greasy kimono and a series of grunts from the man behind the sport ing page.
 We wish the doggone war was over. How would you like to tackle big mess of bacon and eggs once more before you die?
 A fat woman should never stand in front of the window of a butcher shop when she is waiting for car. Some fresh guy is liable to make a remark about the display of dressed beef.
 The women have quit wearing vests. We know that they wouldn't stand for an article that doesn't hook up the back. What has become of the old-fashioned woman who used to rock cradle? And what has become of the old-fashioned cradle?
 After ! man has been married few months he discovers that the mysterious garments known as "lngerie'' that she wore Curing the honeymoon are nothing hut common ordinary underwear.

Hard to Believe It

"It is hard to realize that at last the government has assumed control Of the railroads" said J. Rivers Carter.
 s'It is one of the most stupendous things for America that has come out or her entrance into the war. Publiclsts, statesmen and practical railroad men had for years seen that change was coming, but few were ready to see the government take over the vast properties overnight It is evidence of one thing, and that Is the President expects to put every ounce of strength at ms coiii- mand into the winning of the war.

HANDICAPPED

 She tripped along the crowded street, A vision fair to see; Her skirt-and that was hard to beat Hung just below the knee. But, sooth to say, her shapeliness It were shame to hide; And maybe, if she'd just confess, It was a source of pride. The color on her cheeks. no doubt, Was partly due to paint; Iris not for one such art to flout Who's not himself a saint. And though we much admired the lass And watched her passing by, Not being in the khaki class, We did not catch her eye
 HARD TO BEAR "Why were you so rude to that au- thor of best seller% Because he insists on taking him. self seriously"
 But you surely believe he wrote the book attributed to him?' "Oh, yes What grates on me is the fact that he poses as literary per sonage."
