EDITORIAL PAGE j
No girl looks sweet and whole
some just before having an aching
tooth extracted. How can she?
What has become , of the old
time parent who used to be obliged
to count his fingers before he could
tell how many children he had?
When a girl suddenly meets a
toad in the garden ijath she will
break the Wellesley high jump rec
ord and not boast of it afterward.
Knee breeches for men are bound
to come back, s»ays the fashion au
thorities. The women have been
wearing them ever since we can re
member.
That there are as good fish in the
sea as were ever caught is mighty
poor consolation to the fellow who
has just lost a four pound bass or a
125-pound girl.
When a couple are newly married,
they feel as if tuey could devour
each other. After the lapse of a
year or so they regret that they did
not follow their first Inclinations.
A minister tes:ified not long since
tbat he passed sixteen saloons with
in a radius of three blocks in Chi
cago. Had he been a sailor or a
free lunch fiend he would have pass
uono of them.
Almost iiny smart young fellow
cau tell ihe wei„i i o; a girl by
holding her ou his lap. A fellow o;
our acquaintance once found out
the weight of the girl's father on
this account.
The Hoosier governor's wife is
a peach. In a recent address, made
before th«- Indiana Democratic Edi
torial association, she said: "Every
editor likes a woman who can give
him good fried chicken, nice hoi bis
cuits and peach cobblcr."
When a man's wife hoists her skirt
clear to the knees on a rainy day
he calls her down for being a darn
fool. Bu' he always wonders why
the other women don't hoist their
skirLs a httle higher, writes a close
observer
TOLERATE ONLY GOOD. |
There is a point where toiention !
sinks into sheer baseness and pol- i
troonery. The toleration of the j
worst leads us to look on what is J
barely better as good enough aad |
to worship what is cr,'y moderately j
gocd. Woe to that irv;n and that I
nation to whom meo-: cr:ty lias be- ■
coc;e an ideal!
CO? Eye Specialist
will tell you that the ideal light for sew
ing or reading is the soft mellow light
of a good oil lamp. The Rayo is em
phatically a good oil lamp—scientifically
constructed to provide the maximum of
correct light, and proved cs°od by years
of satisfactory service in every civilized
country of the world.
Ray®
Lamps
No glare; no flicker. Easy to light and
