It Wasn’t His Wife.

The application of a little logis and quick reasoning often saves some people from keen mental suffering and this is humorously demonstrated by the following: “I received a ’phone message the other day,” said Noyes E. Brewmore jn the Kansas City Star, ‘‘to the’ effect that a woman answ’ering ’description of my wife, with SSO in her pocketbook, had been found dead. My ..fellow workers commented severely because I continued calmly with my task, but I knew restively it was not my wife. In the first place, I knew my wife never had SSO; and in. the second place I knew if she ever got hold of anywhere near SSO she would never drop dead until she had got rid of it.”
