Have you an idea for a patent
or invention? If so, you should
read that remarkable book of
helpful hints by M. Perm Laugh
lin titled "Money From Ideas."
Has your wife come to the point
where she feels she should give
a thought to facial rejuvenation?
That she would be happier if she
appeared 15 years younger than
she is? If so, she should read
that interesting book titled "The
Face" by Dr. Charles Willi. And
you, sir, are you interested in
judging the comparative speed
of thoroughbreds and wagering
on your opuiions? If you are not
making as many visits to the
cashiers' windows as you like
to, you should read that clever
work by Les Conklin on handi
capping titled "Pay Day At The
Races."
Qridet
Ever hear of a triple wedding
ceremony with three sisters as
the brides? Following this un
usual eent the three couples
went on their honeymoons to
gether. After that they all wait
to live together in an 18 room
hotise. Three honeymoon couples
in one house seems quite a
crowd.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. Are
you familiar with a comic song
titled "The Pig Got Up and
Walked Away?" A. Only vague
ly, sir. I believe it was in
troduced by Richard Carle. Am
checking. Q. Just what is the so
called "Maiden's Prayer?" A.
There are several prayers so
referred to but the one most
quoted is that to St. Catherine,
the patron saint of spinsters. It
is as follows:
St. Catherine, St. Catherine,
Oh, lend me thine aid,
Grant I may never die an old
maid.
A husband. St. Catherine,
A good one.
But anyone is better than
none.
St. Catherine.

It has been claimed by some
deep students of the subject of

I The answer is seven o'clock. If

! Song Writers
Harry Von Tilzer who wrote
"My Old New Hampshire
Home" was from Michigan.
Irving Berlin, composer of "I
Want To Go Back To Michigan"
was from New York. Egbert
Van Alslyne who wrote "Back,
Back, To Baltimore" was from
Chicago. However, Paul Dresser,
who wrote "On The Banks of
The Wabash" spent his boyhood
in the vicinity of that Indiana
river. Also Charles B. Lawlor
and James W. Blake, who wrote
"The Sidewalks of New York,"
were both natives of that city.
Mala and Female
What do women lose most?
Answer is, of course, earrings.
What do the ladies misplace
most? As everybody knows, it
is gloves. What do m e n lose
most? It is umbrellas. What do
they misplace most? That would
be spectacles. Flo Ziegfeld began
wearing spectacles when 45. He
had 50 pairs, so if he misplaced
one pair he always had another
handy.
In the Bath
Are you a bathtub singer? If
not, you should be. It is very
good for health. Singing in the
bathtub was originated by a law
yer. That was Lucius Annaeus
Seneca, born 4 B.C. died A.D.
65. In one of his philosophic
essays, Seneca said, "A man
likes to hear his own voice in
the bath." It is very interesting
to note that at a period when
the average span of life was 31,
Seneca lived to be 69. Men who
sing in the shower or bathtub
are usually very relaxed. And
relaxation is a great aid to longevity.
