| AS nobody else wants that nomina-
ton, it looks like a cinch for Tom.
Mrs. Duff said as how she couldn't
be bothered doing all the work round
the house while her husband was
lectioneering for the presidency, and
that he was staying out too late of
nights, pretending he had to attend
political meetings. When she learned
that no campaigning was necessary
for the vice presidency, she switched
Tom to that track.
The picture above shows Mrs. Duff
announcing to Mr.. Duff that he had
changed his goal from the presidency
to the vice.
