ABOUT REUBEN
Saturday ’cept 10
The balloon air here It has came
Schule opens Munday Sept twelve
Booze it the champion prize fighter
Nobody has any use for a man who im
agines be is the "whole works"
Rube will give $( for the ugliest wo-
man tomorrow if Crider will be judge
Every man imagines that he does more
for his town than the town does for him
Rube has noticed this: The women
are wearing more hair and lesa clothes
If yon have a piece of land yon want
to dispose of tell Rube about it he can
advertise and sell it
A lady called Rube up over the phone
the other day and raised sand because he
left this column out of the last issue
After a woman has been married five
ears a promise made by a man causes
ler to sniff and try to break he hitching
strap “When I think of the promises
my husband has made me" she will say
'and then words fail her she gives a
luge pull at the tug breaks the hames-
string and runs away
A fanners brought six ears of corn to
Mannsville last Saturday to show "Its
certainly fine” w remarked "O I’ve
ot better corn than that" he replied
luestlon: When a farmer brings corn
to town to show does he bring the best
he can find ?
Young ladies Rube is your friend
If you have tried to "land” your fel
low every way that you know by feeding
him watermelons ice cream fried chick
en and creatn gravy etc quit it Make
a peach cobbler If you make it right
no man who eats it will try to get away
Rube don’t belong to but one lodge
We Joined that lor the insurance there
waa in it Some people join lodges just
to get the Distress Signal
f oe Bailey in our mind is the most
f-conceited man in the United States
But then there are others Probably
yon told yoor wife before marriage that
-ou could make her happy We did —
ait we didn't
' - V
Whep a man brings his baby to tow-n
to show st off and buys everything iq
sight for it and tells everybody bow
much the baby thinks of him he must
feel pretty had when it begins to cry and
says “I want to go home to mama”
Rube is thinking of going back to
Texas We are getting home-sick We
just naturally cannot become accustomed
to good weather fine crops and people
who won't grumble
From 1 1:30 to 1:30 during the hottest
part of the day and when people are go-
ing home to dinner the ice house is shut
up and the man is gone When it begins
to get cool and we decide we can do with
out ice then it opens up Result: The
ice man kicks because there is no busi-
' The public kicks because they
can’t get ice when they want it
“How does my hair look?” a woman
said to her husband the other day when
they were out in oompany "Do you
mean your hair or our hair?” the hus-
band replied "the $1000 worth I bought
looks aandy — yours is a little mussed
up"
