SPLINTERS.

Hand bills—Collecting agene!?s. Too many side shows spoil the main performance. A bird In the cage is worth two In the hand. __ All the world used to be a stage, but now It comes pretty near being a trolley car. Boyce—What makes you think that he Is of a musical turn of mind? Joyce —He always wants a brass band around his cigar. The back yard rarely ever looks as neat as the front pavement.. Blnks —Did the young lady next door get her musical education In Europe?
