SAP AND SALT

The fellow who can do every
thing seldom does anything.
. Heaven and hell are matters
largely determined by digestion.
Love travels fastest when OBJ
stacles are put in it's path.
Gossip is like fire-a little "
1t spreads into a confederation.
When nature undertakes to
make q man fat, she generally
gets plenty of assistance from
the man himself.
When we get a good man into
oftlce, 1t generally turns out that
being good is all he Is good for.
TWO kinds of events happen
those you expect and those you

told you so;' to the second you
say, We'll, 1 thought So"

The two gentlemen whose
faces you may study here
fought last night. American
citizens, male and female, paid
at least half a million to see
them fight. And other citizens
will pay a great deal more to
see the moving pictures Of the
fight.
Mr.. Firpo wisely reserved
the moving picture rights for
the Argentine. They will make
him rich, and the fight itself
will pay him 100000.
Looking at these two gentle
men, which would you say Off
hand would win? Patriotism
would make you select Willard,
on the broad ground that "any
good and true American is a
better man than any man on
earth" But, then, there is VIII

nent.
