And so they were married.

1t was just as Babe had said.

made the little new home mum.
1t lasted like that for three
months.
At the end of the three months
the sos didn't seem to be going
quite as far as it did at first.
At the end of four months they
were a little in debt. Joe was
still on the elevator job ana Bape
was nagging him to look Ior
something better.
AT the end of six months tney

was still holding down the same

At the end of the seventh
month Joe lost his job. He looked

when he began to get better the
bitterness returned.

A T a dinner party a man thinks
: "A chiefly of what is put before

A perfect lover is one who

AS long as a man loves a wo-

but, when a woman won't argue
with a man, her love is dead!
There is such an eternal CLAM

even the woman who pawns hers

wife-beating sheds a tender tear
over it.
When two women fall in love

the last of the three to find out
which one Of them he is going
to marry.

The first sign Of woman's
love is her desire to run her

the first sign of a mans love Is
his willingness to LET her.
When a man processes to doubt

in his simple, childlike vanity,
he was too dead sure of one wo-

Some folks are not as big fools

Perhaps no mistake is greater
than paying more attention to
