Of the French army
It would be very imprudent, even

Our Weekly Fable In Slang
By BARTON RICHARDS

ny doiled himself up like a Polish
wedding and called upon the young
queen. determined to offer himself as
permanent meal ticket and to ac-
company ihe offer with the speech he
had rehearsed. He had It down so
well that he could fire from any PEST
ton, and he rang the family doorbeD
that night primed to the muzzle.
After the usual preljminaries (you
know what they are) he spared for
an opening to begin the matrimonial
offensive and after clearing his larynX
a few times he opened IRE. Did the
words flow? They did, just like the
ink flows out OF a, frozen fountain pen
First he suffered, and then coughed a
couple, and broke out into a cold sweat.
The young lady thought that he had
swallowed his spearrnint by the way
he acted. and finally after a tremen-
dous effort he asked her II she wouldn't
like to pour his coffee for the rest Of
his life. His carefully prepared speech
was about as useful to him as q sledge
hammer would be to q jeweier and for
all ha said he might have just come
from grade one. Which only brings
back our opening line. Happy is ne
who knows his detraetions.
