Precocious Infant.

Two proud fathers of babie§ about the same age were having a boasting contest in the city train the other morning. “Can your baby talk yet?” Jones asked. . ■ . _■ “No not much,” Btown admitted. “Can yojirs?” “Oh, yes; talks like anything,” Jones replied, confidently. “Yours is walking about now, I suppose?” “No, he hasn’t begun to walk yet,” said Brown. “Not yet!” Jones exclaimed. “Why, he’s older than mine, and mine is toddling about.” Brown was beginning to get exasperated. “By the way,” he asked casually,' “does yours us?e a safety razor or one of the ordinary ones?” —New York Globe.
