GOOD JOKES

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD.

An eager but ragged lad stood in the lobby of a theater Saturday night, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. After a while he summoned up enough- courage to approach the haughty beauty who presides at the ticket booth. “Say,” asked the kid, “if I buy a ticket now will it be good Sunday night or Monday?” *■ “Sure,” answered the lady. “Them tickets ain’t for reserved seats. They’re good any time. But whadda you wanta buy one now for? Why don’t you wait till you come to the show?” “Say,” confided the kid, “if I take a nickel home wid me, me ma will get it I better buy the ticket now.”
