EASY TO FIGURE.
She works for big corporation
and draws down a very good salary
which 1 should say was around hun
dred dollars month and she lives at
home and she doesn't pay any board
and she spends it all on clothes and
face powder and rouge and everything
like that and she does wear real good
clothes with silk underwear and
stockings and all those little things
that women love.
He works in another firm and he
draws down nearly hundred dollars
and he spends his in a hurry each
week like the most of the fellows do
these days of foolish buying and they
are engaged and 1 heard today that
they were going to get married and
that she was to leave her job that pays
nearly a hundred dollars and he is to
get a raise of fifteen dollars on the
month.
Z Now then he is having a hard time
getting along on his nearly a hundred
dollars and with raise of fifteen dol
lars he is going to take wife to sup
port that has been doing nothing for
over a year but have a good time and
wear good clothes and have all the
money to spend she wanted.
He is going into debt to buy furni-
ture and things and she will have to
wear her old clothes and make the
best of things for long time to come
and have been wondering all this
time just how long she would be
happy with this man and when will it
become a grating sort of a life and
Oh, a lot of things, and l guess that
will be about all. n. s. A.
THERE is A MAN IN OUR TOWN
Who has a wife who is very near
the age of her sister who is no mans
wife. In speaking of the first lady
mentioned the man always says my
girl wife" and excuses and admires
her because "she is so young" Re-
Gently some discussion arose in the
family because the sister advised
something he didn't approve of and
he said disgustedly, ooh, you know
these old maids lose their sense of
fitness"
Now isn't that like a man. girl
wife and her sister not year older
is IAN old maid"
