WHY DO YOU have to buy
white margarine when you want
yellow margarine? Because there
is a 10c per pound “spite tax”
on yellow margarine. Write your

Couldn’t Be Worse
•
D OWN in Alabama, old Uncle
Pete Houston, farmer, stock
raiser and horse trader, enjoyed go
ing to the county seat each month
on court day to transact his mani
fold business operations. While
there, he stopped at the home of his
old friend, Seymour Howland.
One court day, night came on
without the appearance of Uncle
Pete at the Howland residence, and
his old sidekick. Seymour, began to
worry about him. It wasn’t until
well along in the evening that Uncle
Pete came stomping up on the How
land veranda. He explained that he
had been delayed swapping horses
with Jake Mashby.
“Jake Mashby!” yelled Seymour.
“Don't you know that fellow is the
biggest crook in the South? And
you have been dumb enough to
swap horses with him in the dark.
Well, I can tell you, without looking
at the horse you’ve got, that he
ain't worth a tarnation.”
"Seymour,” rejoined the veteran
trader, “I’ll admit that I don’t know
much about the horse I’ve got; but
I shore do know a powerful lot
about the one I got rid of!”
Slightly Mixed Up
The Smiths wheeled their baby in
a perambulator that was something
of a family heirloom. It had once
belonged to the baby’s own father.
The fact thrilled little Annie, a
neighbor’s daughter.
Rushing into the house and but
tonholing her mother, she cried:
“Just think, Mother. Mrs. Smith
wheels her baby in the very same
carriage she once used to wheel her
husband in!”
TRICK SHOT
An eminent clergyman visiting
Port Huron was golfing on a local
course, and for his caddy had a lad
full of spice and ginger.
At the first tee, the reverend gen
tleman asked the caddy how far it
was to the first hole, and the caddy
replied: “Three hundred and fifty
yards, parson.’’
“Oh,” remarked the clergyman,
“just a drive and a putt.”
He teed up his ball, took his
stance, and then, waggling his club
a bit, he finally drove the pill about
20 yards down the course.
The caddy hitched up his trousers
and peered out over the fairway.
“Reverend,” he finally remarked,
“that’s gonna be one heck of g
putt.”
A Wild Country
Charles M. Schwab, while getting
some steel contracts in Great Brit
ain once, was asked concerning a
young man who had been with him
on a previous visit.
"I’m sorry,” replied the steel
magnate, “but he was killed by a
revolving crane.”
“My word,” gasped the Britisher
in flabbergasted amazement. “What
fierce birds •you have in America.”
Delicate Hint
A stout lady got on the street car
and put a parcel of sausages beside
her. A young man in plus fours got
on at the next stop and sat down on
the edge of the parcel.
Turning to him she said, “Excuse
me, but do you play golf?”
The young man, somewhat taken
aback, said he did.
“Well, would you mind getting off
my links?” asked the lady. *
MOSTLY SELLING
An artist confesses he put ten
years’ work into a picture he has
just sold. Nine of them are said to
have been devoted to selling.
LABOR SAVER
Two domestic employees were
talking over their individual
problems in connection with their
work. Said one to the other:
“The lady I work for says I
should always warm the plates
for our dinner guests. But that’s
too much work,' so I just warm
hers and she never knows the
difference.”
Just Testing Them
The nice old lady smiled at the
little girl who had been left in
charge of the cake shop.
“Don’t you sometimes feel tempt
ed to eat one of the cream puffs, my
dear?” she said.
The little girl was quite shocked.
"Of course not,” she replied. “That
would be stealing. I only lick them.”

The juice of a lemon in a glass of
water, when taken first thing on aris
ing, is ail that most people need to
insure prompt, normal elimination.
No more harsh laxatives that irritate
the digestive tract and impair nutri
tion! Lemon in water is pood for you I
Generations of Americans have taken
lemons for health—and generations
of doctors have recommended them.
They are rich in vitamin C; supply
valuable amounts of Bi and P. They
alkalinize; aid digestion.
Not too sharp or sour, lemon in water
has a refreshing tang —clears the
mouth, wakes you up. It’s not a
purgative —simply helps your sys
tem regulate itself. Try it 10 days.
