The Modern Way.
Back Number Old Gentleman—Jimmie, do the little boys and girls still take a big red apple to'their teacher to make her happy. Jimmie —No; we make her happy by bringing a certificate from the doctor that we’ve had our adenoids and tonsils removed and have been inoculated for diphtheria, scarlatina and influenza, and that we’ve had our teeth repaired and our eyes examined. Then if we want to make her feel real good we all get up and recite the calory catechism. .
