Some men have no idea of humor until they catch the itch. Dog days are better than cat Eights with mosquitoes thrown in. The man who eats cloves is never free from the breath of suspicion. Something is sure to be up when a gossip says: "There's no talking.', . A'man with only a penny In his pocket possesses a round sum of money. Misfortute most always come 5n pairs, especially if the other fellow holds three of a kind If boys had the running of the world some of us grown ups would have to do some humping. The more you puff a cigar the smaH ller it becomes. Some men in Oregon are built like cigars. The question was asked us the other day "Why do old maids wear knit' gloves?" "Because they have no kids. Jealousy among business men of a town has the same effect on trade as a scorching hot wind on green vegeta bles -it withers and dries it up.

"Tapering Waist Effect." "Let's see it," said the small er urchin, as he made 'a grab for the box.

At a church sociable In the country the other night there wasn't seats e- nough to accommodate the crowd, so a couple of boards were brought in and placed on two chairs. A dud'ish little fellow sat down on the boards with his best girl and began teetering. Observ ing the situation a bright little woman in the crowd propounded this cne: 'Why fs a man on a teeter boaid like a man who has Jumped his board bill. They all gave it up and then she said. Why that s easy, he's got a title be hind on board." This concluded the evening entertainment. An tudulgent father wishing to please his youngest hopeful took him Portland the other day and they stop ped at one of the large hotels- far the night. The youngest was undressed and put to bed and the father, went, down into the bbby to talk business.

There was a rush of feet as the bell boy scurried to the room, only to be met at the door by a diminutive but Indignant youth who said severely: "Man, I want you to send some one I can say my prayers to, and send them quick. I want to go to sleep."
