It was one of his regular patients, a man in a wild state of alarm. “My wife, doctor,” he shouted. “It's her appendix. You’d better come ’round and see her at once.” The doctor sighed and told the man to go back to bed. “Give her some bicarbonate and ginger ale, and I’ll look in to-mor row,” he said. “She has’nt got ap pendicitis.” The husband became even wild er, insisting that she did have ap pendicitis. ‘■Well, she can’t have!” the doc tor shouted. ”1 took her appendix out three years ago, and I never heard of anyone having two ap pendixes.” “Ever heard of anybody having two wives?” the man asked, bitterly. GOOD REASON / The old man fishing from the river bank landed a pike about two feet long, but threw it back. Later he caught a large perch. This he also threw back. Five minutes later he caught a small perch, and put it into his bag. As he rose to go a fellow fisherman asked him why he had thrown back two beautiful fish and kept a small one. “Well,” he replied, “my frying pan’s only nine inches wide.” Wrong And Right The theatrical agent's new clerk entered the private room and said, “There’s a lady to see you, sir.” “Is she good-ldoking?” “Yes, sir.” “Show her in.” Ten minutes later the clerk was summoned. “Well,’’ said the agent, gruffly, “you’re a nice judge of beauty, I must say.” “Ah, but I had to be careful, sir. For all I knew, she might have been your wife.” “Yes,* said the agent, acidly, “she was.” THAT STOPPED HER The farmer’s wife was famous for miles around for her sharp tongue, but one day she had to stop ncgging. A farm horse kicked her so badly that she had to go to a hospital. During her absence there was a ceaseless stream of callers at the farm. The farmer was touched. It’s very nice of the neighbors, especially the men, to call and ask after the missus,” he re marked to the maid-of-all-work. “Aye, sir,” replied the girl, “but most of them want to know if you’ll sell the horse.” \ He Asked for It He was up before thfe orderly officer, charged with using insulting language to his sergeant. “Please, sir,” he protested, “I was only answering aiquestion.” “What question?” snapped the officer. “Well, sir, the sergeant said, ‘What do you think 1 am?’ And I told him.” • _________ False Alarm A saucy farm damsel was speed ing through traffic in the city. She soon found herself stopped by a policeman. “Look her e,” he growled, “where is the fire?” “What are you worrying about,” she countered, “you are no fire< man.” REASON ENOUGH “I see you farmers raise hogs al most exclusively here. Do you find they pay better than corn or pota toes?" “Well, no, but you see, stranger, hawgs don't evah require no hoein’.” SEWING CIRCLE PAHERNS y 0 u s, le ^-rocL j, youthfj oCoveiy Wlifylitie flor ^JrouASeau Exciting Yoked Frock U'XCITING, smart, wearable—a handsome yoked frock that cqmbines two fabrics effectively.
