From the "Epworth Herald:"

Mother: "Gladys, you are two years old to-day."

Gladys: "I know it, ma. Gee, but I like to look back and think of the funny styles we girls used to wear."

The following business card, according to a Western newspaper, was distributed by an enterprising young business man:

MR. GERAD ALLEN, JR.

Personal Escorter

Tots and Kiddies took to school and returned prompt in perfect condishion if received that way. Military discipline. Rates 25c a weak. Speshiol rates to twins. Refined conversashion. No extra charge for nose wipin. All I ast is a trial.

Autoist: "I had the right of way when this man deliberately ran into me, and yet you say I was to blame."

Policeman: "You certainly were."
Autoist: "Why?"

Policeman: "Because his father is mayor, his brother is chief of police, and I go with his sister."

From "Tit-Bits:"

He emerged from the dining-room of the fashionable hotel and went to the cloakroom, where he nonchalantly proceeded to crush one silk top-hat after the other. The attendant, surprised at this behavior, demanded the reason for his action, whereupon the other replied: "I'm looking for my own. It's a collapsible, you know. None of these here seem to be it."

A tabby cat in a Vancouver, British Columbia, zoo is serving as foster-mother to three young wolves, and the El Paso "Times" remarks, "Modern parents understand the feeling."

"Collars, neckties and socks-yes, sir! How about some night-shirts?"

"No, sir, young fella. I ain't no society rounder. When night comes I go to bed."

From the "Fliegende Blaetter" (Munich): He: "Who is that handsome boy with the cropped head?"

She: "That's my cousin, Betty." "And the blond man with the monocle?" "That's my younger sister, Lu."

Laughing, but embarrassed: "So I suppose the other young man in the dinner jacket is your elder sister?"

"No, that's my grandmother."

[graphic]

"Where I go on my vacation they give you one of those three-season beds." "What are they?"

"No spring!"

From "Judge:"

Teacher: "Why was Columbus so anxious to discover a new world?"

Bobby: "I think he was looking for a place to park."

From "Liberty:"

Johnny had been the guest of honor the day before at a party to which his little chum Tommy had not been invited. After hearing all about it, Tommy said to Johnny: "Have a good time, Johnny?"

"Did I!" answered Johnny. "Why, I'm not hungry yet!"

From the Cincinnati "Enquirer:"

"I see you have a sign in your store, 'We Aim To Please,' remarked the irritated customer.

"Certainly," replied the proprietor, "that is our motto."

"Well," retorted the I. C., "you ought to take a little time off for target practice."

[graphic]

From "Everybody's Magazine:"

A new regulation in a certain coal mine required that each man mark with chalk the number of every car of coal mined. One man named Rudolph, having filled the eleventh car, marked it as No. 1 and, after pondering a while, let it go at that. Another miner, happening to notice what he thought was a mistake, called Rudolph's attention to the fact that he had marked the car No. 1 instead of No. 11. "Yes, I know," said Rudolph. "But I can't think which side de odder wan go on."

From the Boston "Transcript:"

Motor Cop (to professor of mathematics): "So you saw the accident, sir. What was the number of the car that knocked this man down?"

Professor: "I'm afraid I've forgotten it. But I remember noticing that if it were multiplied by fifty, the cube root of the product would be equal to the sum of the digits reversed."

The answer to each line of the following jingle is a word of six letters. Six different words, but all composed of the same six letters. Answer next week.

You will find one in every jail,

You can do it by means of a pail,
It is something that nations have sought,
And did it whenever they fought,
It makes warfare appear picturesque,
And you'll find it right in your own desk.

Where New Orleans
Dwells Beside
the Mississippi

This reproduction of a United States Geological Survey map of the country
surrounding New Orleans shows graphically the menace of floods to the Cres-
cent City. The absence of contour lines, the presence of great areas marked
as marshes, doubly indicate the flatness of the terrain. The river flows from

left to right. The place where the break in the levee was made at Poydras may
be found on the left-hand bank of the Mississippi, in the bend of the river at the ex-
treme right. Much of the territory between Poydras and Lake Borgne has been
evacuated. It was through the levee at this point that the river burst in 1922.
