Kach week a small red-huaded lan
delivers a maya/.ine to office workers
in various downtown buildings.
Recently, itlie boy appeared, but
without his magazine. The mair
reached in his pocket for his money,
and then, noting the absence of the
magazines, asked where they were.
The boy turned and called to a lad
even smaller than “Red-Head."
“My brother." Red*Head said. ‘He’s
helping me today. Business is so good
that I need a helper; yon know, gome
one to carry the magazines and watch
the money.”
Th* Motorist’s Daughter
A little girl was crossing the Atlantn
with her mother. It was her tirsi
ocean trip The sea was as smooth as
the proverbial millpond for the brat
three days, then the ship began rolling
and pitching heavily.
The child could not understand whai
had happened. ‘‘Mamma/' she cried
‘\Vhat> the matter? Are we on s
detoor?"

whom he Lad not seen for a number
of years.
“Hallo, old chap,” he said heartilf-
“I hear you’ve been engaged for Dear
ly a year. Who is the woman In the
case?”
“I don’t think you know her,** re
plied Jackson. “She’s a Miss Terry*
The other shook his head gravely.
“I understand, old chap," he replied.
’T’ve been married to one for tee
years, and she’s still a mystery."—

‘‘But your flance’s salary Is so snurii
how are you going to live?"
“Oh, we’re going to economize. WeVe
going to do without a lot of thinca

• Not Fair
Two patients were airing thdr
grievances in the asylum grounds.
Said one: “It’s an outrage, -rse
been here ten years, and I’m as —
as anybody."
‘‘So am I,” chimed in the other, *^and
I’ve been here 12 years. Let’s go and
tell the Governor.”
“Wait a minute,” said the first "Pto
going to test you.”
Then, putting her hands behind her
back, she said: “What have I got In
my hand?”
“A tramcar,” promptly answered the.
other.
“You cheat!" was the heated ra-
tort. “You saw me pick It op!"—

Pinch Hitting
At a marriage service performed in
a little country church, when the mln-i
ister said in solemn tones, “Wilt then*
have this man to be thy wedded hnn-
band, etc.?” instead of the woman an-,
swering for herself, a gruff maria
voice answered, “I will!”
The minister looked up, very aradh
perplexed, and paused. He repeated
the sentence, and again the same grnff
voice answered, “I will!”
The minister looked up, when a
man seated at the end of the first raw
said, “She’s deaf, parson, an’ Fm an
swerin’ for her!"
