TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT MARCH 27.’ 1910, GEM Theatre. .Adults 20c. ------- o The Wit of Douglas Jerrold. Douglas Jerrold's wit has a dis- creet malice of its own. Asked at a party who it was that was dancing with Mrs. Jerrold, he replied, laugh ingly: "A member of the Humane Society, I think." At another func tion he saw a very tall man dancing with a very short lady. "Hullo,” he rapped out, “there’s a mile dancing with a mile stone.” Once he was dis turbed in his editorial toon/ by a young poet rushing in and asking: "Have you seen my ‘Desoent into Hell,’ Mr. Jerrold?” "No, sir I have not,” was the reply, "but I should very much like to.” Some of Jerrold’s epigrams are brilliant. Here is a choice one: "The man who takes the goose from the common, goes to the House of Correction, the man who takes the common from the goose goes to the House of Lords." Just Found It Out. Manuel Is a Mexican. He runs a chili wagon on Main Street and up to a day or so ago had had a good record. But on the fatal day he found himself before a judge charged with assault and battery. "Why did you beat that man?” asked the judge. “He called me something, senor”, answered Manuel politely. “What did he call you?” “El rhinoceros, senor judge." "A rhinoceros! When was this?” “Three years ago,” responded Man uel and the court nearly fell off the bench. "You mean that you hit a man yes terday on account of something he called you three years ago?” de manded the judge. "Si, senor! Upuntil that accused yesterday I htffenot Heen a rhinoc eros. Inly ye^HBay did I learn the colossal size of the insult.” A Useful Utensil. "I have in the bundle, Mr. Pry,” said J. Fuller Gloom to an inquisi tive neighbor, "a neat little inven tion of my own, a squirt gun by means of which when I meet an ac quaintance I can shower compliments practically all over him at one squirt. I can then go right along about my business, and no time is wasted In polite persiflage.” “But—ah!—you cannot load com- pliments into a squirt gun, you know. So this is, of course, an im- aginery squirt gun?" “Exactly! The only kind of com pliments I bestow are imaginary compliments.” William Fox Production, featuring Jane Cecil B.

That will mean that one in every three persons will be a divorce and perhaps a member in regular stand i ing of the popular Alimony Club. It is already estimated than more than a million dollars a year are paid out in alimony every year in New York City alone, and New York has never enjoyed half the popularity of Reno and other western towns as a divorce center. two reel Mack Sennett Production.
