JUST FOR FUN.

eed

Many a man swallows his pride when
he’s hungry-

Misery and the average servant girl
both love company.

The epring chicken is a demonstra—
tion that the good die young.

Some men are never disappointed in

ing man’s place?’, Ehe—“Yes; in a
crowded street car.”

When it comes to an argument with
the milkman the most obstinate person
1s obliged to take water.

says the Manayuuk Philosopher, ‘‘s
illustrated by the tact that the man
who rocks the boat is usually the only
one in the party who escapes drown-

tion from the fact that so many people
aretamil ar with the hfe he has led and

that tor some months Mr. Sutton had
had been a different man and all were
glud to see the change in bim. Every:
one should extend him a helping hand
and encourage him in the Christian

life,

 

This is Our Way.

Today the Planters Warehouse had
364 piles of tobacco on the floor and
15 loads that had to be stored for
Tuesday’s sale. When Auctioneer Lips-

there was not trrned ticket on"dur
