Many A Crooked Man Is Going
Straight To The Devil.
Luke McLuke Says
Another funny thing is how a man
win choke on a little fish bone and
swallow a big FISH story.
b h time a young fellow gets
away from his mothers slipper he
finds that the girl he married has
planted her shoe on his neck.
Isn't 1t strange how the most gen.
erous fellows you know of never seem
to have money?
If a man is and always
afraid that he might hit somebody we
say that he has no business driving an
n doesn't are whom he hits We say
that he is a good driver.
If a book agent would use the same
amount of perseverance in any other
line he could be a millionaire or a
President.
Every fellow thinks he knows all
about women until he marries one.
About the time a widog quits e
ing weeds her husbands grave be-
gins to Q them.
Chase a girl and she will run away
from you. Turn your back and run
away from her and she will chase you
Life is just one thing after another
1t is n lone round of cutting BIZ
penses down SO we a keep appear
ances up.
When a woman G to the theatre
she can hold her hat, her pocketbook
her umbrella, her coat, her gloves, he,
candy and her program. But she can
hold her tongue.
Father wants to name the boy aftel

She knows that the great man ism

Hazard (Ky.) Herald,)
Mrs. Inch's first trial was a mis-
trial, the jury being unable to agree.

the witness chair was boxed up four
feet high. which was calculated to

Luke remarked the other day that
