Dinner Anger.

If ten women were asked to

The dinner gets cold, or is
overdone and everything goes to
smash including the good wife's
disposition.
And you can't blame her.
What would Mr.. Business Man
say if his merchandise were
continually coming in late; or
Mr., Professional Man if his
clients or patients always came
after the crisis had passed.

over a spoiled dinner would be

of the man.

dishonest. If he needs credit he
can't get it, if he is rich every

SOIVlns the Paper Problem.

Greater importations of paper
and puIpwood from Canada and
increased production in the
West, where there are still ex-
tensive stands of suitable forests
would prove to be temporary
solutions of the paper problem
according to the Forests Service
of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
In the long run the country
must solve the problem on the
basis of a permanent wood
supply. There are two ways, re-
curing a constructive national
policy, of permanently solving
the question. There are, first,
regeneration of our forests on a
more productive basis, and,
second, the greater utilization of
mill waste for paper making.

Luke McLuke Says.

Some how or other, you never
hear of man applying for d.
vorce on the ground that his
wife is a good cook. And you
never hear of a woman applying
for divorce on the ground that
her husband gives her too much
money.
Even when she is announcing
that a well-built girl looks I'm
modest, a fiat chested girl will
keep right on spending two bucks
per week for Developer.
The man who can't make 20
bucks a week at what he is do
ing always knows that he would
be a world beater if he had the
Other Fellows job.
What fine children there would
be in this world it the Neighbors
raised your children the way
they think your children should
be raised, and you raised the
Neighbors' children the way you
think the Neighbours children
should be raised.
And what has become of the
o. f. man who wanted to kiss
the Bartender before he went
home?
We do not know much. But
we do know that there is always
one cartridge left in the gun that
is supposed to be empty.
Why is it that a man can't sit
beside good looking girl with
out resting his arms on the back
of the chair she is occupying?
The 0. f. woman who had a
pet baking powder now has a
daughter who has a pet bakery
that charges her 10 cents for a
scent loaf of bread.
A henpecked husband crows
as loudly as anybody when he is
away from home.
The reason why a thin girl
does not mind having her collar
bone stick out three inches is
because she knows that her an
kles are not fat.
