"One of the chief causes for this strong element
Of unexpectedness in marriage is yourself Another
is the you marry. You may believe that after

You may have the audacity to suppose that you
know the you going to marry. That is very
doubtful The most you may expect is to see each
other in silhouette and recognize general outlines.
Marriage will supply with wealth Of surprising
detail with which TO fill in the portraits

WHEN TO PICK A COWBOY
(BY Jack Cliffordl


I'm going to give you little good dope:
Never hire cowboy unless he's broke.
For any time he's got dollar
He'll put up awful holler
If there's any work to do
And it gets dark before he's through.
But where the chuck wagons back on the range
And he's in town, and short on change,
And his meals are few and far between
And he's beginnin' to look both lank and lean
Then he's gettin' to be nice and tame,
And easy to handle as any old Jane
So now, old cowman, you take 1t from me,
When you see one with money just let him be.
But when he's broke and down and out,
He'll make you a hand. without any doubt.
Pick out that's big and stout,
With old pants on, with the all out
And say "Old timer, / think you'll do
For, if / amt guessed wrong,
You're darn through
With this butterfly life for a month or two"
And you'll find out without any doubt,
That this old boy has been the route.
And now's the time he'll make hand
At any old thing you might demand.
You trot bad one into the ring,
And say, Here, Bill 6 Here's one of your string"
And old BlIll take down his rope
And right now he'd get that pony's goat
He'd slip his old kack up in his middle,
And leave it to Bill he'd solve the riddle.
He'd pull his pants UP tight in his crotch
And he'd buckle his chaps UP another notch
He'd hook the buck-strap down his gun,
ana ne d put on ms spurs, just Tor the run.
For this old outlaws hard to tame,
But that won't bother Bill, for he's sure game
And every time that pony will buck,
You'd think he'd realize he's out of luck
For Bilrl spur him clean up to the skirts,
And whip him low down in the flank where it
hurts.
Yes! This old Bill would be there, all right
And he'd ride that pony till dark that night
And he'd want to go out, and night herd, too
If you didn't say, "B, think that'll do"
And if you hadn't of known Bill was broke
You'd OF thought BY golly. it must be Joke,
For anything Old Bill couldn't do
Thered be trying. for me or you
But when all the wrinkles got out OF his gut
He'd commence right then to be a pretty hard nut
And by the time he'd worked month or so,
You'd just as we'll figure lettin' him 60
For those old blue ridges would get too far away;
The grub wouldn't suit, and he'd want more pay.
And those old rough rim rocks he'd leave em 10
you
And he'd shy around that rough string, too.
You see, Old Cowman, the reason is
That I'm wise this cowboy buis
Is because I've been there, I'm tellin you,
And know what these dam fool cowboys'I do.

seized his fish and settled on the wa

hovered nearer. The pelican would
juggle the fish around so that IL

head back so that the fish would drop
in, there being no muscles in a pei

Whereupon the gull would seize the
fish out of the pelican's bill. And the
pelican would utter a few well chosen
words and sit for time on the water

Ducks are not delicacies down here.
Ducks are merely ducks. They can

nets on the water during the night
and then cover the nets with bait of
