ESAAe thinks of the new year Is
| HS1VINSN that he will turn over a
tGNHAZlB new leaf, observes Laura
Jean Libbey. If he's single
he resolves that he'll cut loose from
the companions he has had--the jolly
fellows who are not just what they
ought to be. He makes up his mind
that he'll quit turning night into day,
larking around until the wee sma'
hours and attempting to work the
next day. He makes up his mind he'll
save money. Instead of going out with
the boys he'll hunt up the nice girls
whom he knows and spend his eve
nings with them. From the many he
will choose one girl who shall he
nearer and dearer;yet than all others.
He thinks he has had quite enough
OF bachelor life-in fact that he'll
marry and settle down.
The married mans thoughts ara
along quite different line. He makes
up his mind to cut down the number
of clubs 10 which he belongs anu give
his wife the new cloak she has been
pining for. He will forego the stag
rackets that he has been accustomed
TO join In, telling his wife that he's
been 10 a prayer meeting. He con-
cludes to give his wife a little more
pleasure In the way of outings, and
to pay her pretty compliments to
keep her heart from whitening alto
gsther. He'll cease sneering when she
speaks Of her relatives and refrain
from treating them shabbily when they
pay her a visit.
The father-in-law's thoughts take a
different turn. After long and serious
thought on the subject. he concludes
that he,wlll shut his eyes TO his SON.
in-laws peccadilloes, give him help
Ing hapd instead of grumbling at the
manner In which he is keeping his
daughter; that he'll not take sides with
either when family row is on.
The free lance concludes to cross
of all the married from his calling
list, and to turn his attention to the
women who are heart whole and fancy
free.
The conductor on the trolley cur
concludes that he will begin the new
year by stopping at just the corner
that people want to get OFF at so that
he may gain the thanks OF the trav-
elers instead Of the upbraidings of
irate passengers who are obliged TO
walk many blocks back.
