TOO EXPENSIVE A PASTIME “Why are you so opposed to your daughter working?” asked the bach elor friend. “I can’t afford to let her work,” re plied the family man. “What the heck do you mean, can’t afford it?” demanded the B. F. “Say, she couldn’t even earn the silk stockings, let alone all the party dresses she would need to wear to work,” growled the F. M. Down to Snail’s Pace “What’s the matter, officer?” de manded the youth as the cop drew alongside. “Oh, nothing much,” snapped the cop, “except I’m arresting you for speeding, you were going 38.” “For crying out loud!” exclaimed the youth, “do you call going a mere 38 speeding?” Made Money Out of Hogs “How is It that farmer makes so much money out of his hogs, and you say you don’t?” “Waal, I'll tell you, stranger; he has hisen trained to run out in front of automobiles an’ mine won’t.” Stale Joke Finding his audience very difficult to please, a comedian cracked another joke and added, “I suppose you will laugh at that next year?” “No,” said a voice, “but we did last year.” IT SEEMS LARGER “You think a square yard is three square feet, eh?” “Of course it is.” “Did you ever try raking all the rubbish out of one?” Here’s Another In your effusions I can see The clever minor poet;. But in the majors you will bs Some day before you know it. Thankful fc r Harp • ^ Crashing into a telegraph post, the Hmotrorigt, smashed his machine and was picked up in an unconscious state entangled in the wires. Just as his friends feared the worst, a smile swept over his face and he was heard to murmur us he fingered the wires, “Thunk Heaven, they’ve given me a harp!” No Hope “When arc Joan and Edward to be married?” “Never, I’m afraid.” :;i “Why, how’s that?” “Well, she won’t marry him until he pays his debts and he can’t pay his debts until she marries him.” Agreement Saxophonist—I wish I. had money and I would never ploy another note on the saxophone. Neighbor—I wish I had money—I would give it to you. t LOTS OF FUN LET THE MESSENGER DO YOUR / Bug—Gee, this is the best ride I’ve ever been on and it don’t cost any thing either. ^ Fair Exchange When a man proposes But straightway on his shoulder Her head is dropped instead. He’s apt to lose his head. Man Displaced Annabelle—Mabel hasn't a thought for anything nowadays except her new automobile. She's perfectly in love with It. George (sadly)—Another case of man being displaced by machinery. Different Opinions Hill—This horse is so old he has lost all his teeth! Trader—Oh, no; you are mistaken. He is so young in; hasn’t cut his teeth yet! 00- -00- -00- We are prepared to do various kinds of job printing neatly and promptly * • , V * . . and solicit your orders for Ruled Letterheads .
