GATHERED WISDOM
Many a man could hide bis lighf
under a thimble.
Tact does not remove all difflcultlei
—It sidesteps them.
But a crooked politician usually ad
vocates the straight ticket.
If a woman's diamonds are pastJ
•Ha may not have the dough.
The crop of fools Isn’t governed bf
(ha lair of supply and demand.
A vain woman would rather bear
ter connexion praised than her vir-
tues.
Being married to a strenuous worn
in prevents a man from living the
slmpl) life.
Probably tn6re men would retire to
their closets to pray If the family sk«;
etoh didn’t take up so much room.
Tell the average man a Joke, and b«
will aay “That reminds roe.’’ Thou
he’li get busy and you’ll have to Us
