A bli.ck cut ran In front of an
automobile currying u luud of
people at n Hpeo.1 of sixty miles an
liour. f'A black cat! Wpit over
your left shoulder!" shouted the
driver. In complying with his own
command, he ran the car into a
ditch und, after three revolutions
of the. cur, the driver climbed out
of the wreck ami exclaimed:
"Some fool didn't spit."

She came home with her' hat on

"hooks as 1 hough she's been

one neighbor, sympathetically."
"Or picked up," said another
thoughtfully.
The second syllable of the word
"installment" is certainly mislead

"Have you ever driven a ear?"
the lady applicant for a license
was asked.
"One hundred and twenty thou
sand miles," put in her husband,
who was standing near by, "and
never had a hand on the wheel."
We're never going to reduce the

Don't you know that you should
always give ball' of the road to a
woman driver?" asked the police
of a motorist who came near hav

nuother car.
"I always do." replied the man.
"when I find out which half of tin? j
