FROM THE PENCIL’S POINT

Love and reason are seldom chums* Positions ot trust and aching teeth | are hard to fill. Mutual deception is a popular gams, during courtship. A man may work for all he is wortbj and not earn over $4 a week. v, ..... f&mM It’s a grave situation where there is no business for the undertaker. Laugh and a woman laughs with ypu; weep and her nose gets red. It takes a truly great man to convince other people that he Is great. -Vi Occasionally a young man is so fastj that it is impossible for him to get toi the front. A widow wfyo is young, rich and! pretty is monarch of every bachelor*, she surveys. There will always be plenty of hard work to do —and plenty of people who are easy to work. It doesn’t console a woman with wrinkles to tell her they aye the dimples of second childhood. That man doesn’t live who has not’ at one time thought he had all the elements of greatness in him. Prescriptions are often worth more than their weight in gbld—to the physician, to the druggist and sometime* to the undertaker.
