Kansas Philosophy.

A woman will give up anything for love except the man she loves. You can make a martyr of the meanest man on earth by killing him. Wet his whistle often enough, and you will make a musician of any man. If a man meets nothing else in a day’s journey, he will meet his turn to tickle. The only way to win a victory is to go to war, and run the risk of being whipped. Something more than gray hairs is required in old age in order that it be reverenced. After a man has met his disappointment, he is very apt to confound it with sarcasm. Humanity is a good deal like the cal that is never so affectionate as when it is kungry. For every man in love, there are nine hundred and ninety-nine men who think they are. The smaller the town you live in, the more people there are interested when you get your hair cut. If there is anything harder than being polite when you don’t feel like it, we don’t know what it is. When a sheep-killing dog is safe at home, he is a great dog to give alarms. He is thinking of himself. Everyone knows how to cure sorrow, but everybody has it. The principal thing recommended is “not to think of it.” • There is no disguising the fact that more men are on the way to the bad place than are traveling the road to the good place. Experience goes to prove that there is more domestic unhappiness when the wife does not trust her husband’s judgment at all than when she trusts it too much.— Atchison Globe.
