Trite sayings rhymed are liked by some; 
They’ll like this one no doubt;

Farmf.r (in pawnshop, surprised at 
the diversity) : “ ’Pon my soul!” Drie-

—Kate Field’s Washington. 
“What is sweeter than a friend you 
can trust? ” asked Gus De Smith. “ To 
have a friend who will trust you,” re¬ 
plied Kosciusko Jones .—Texas Siftings. 
Vokes : “ Gilleland is so stupid that 
many people think him wise.” Meek- 
ison : “ His ease is even worse than that. 
He is so stupid that he thinks himself 
wise.”— Life. 
Mrs. Matron: “Why don’t you dis¬ 
charge your cook if she does not heed 
you?” Mrs. Youngwife (sobbing; : “I’m 
afraid to. She threatened to leave me 
if I discharged her.” 
“Do you have much trouble getting 
servants in the country, Wat ting?” “No, 
indeed. We’ve had eight cooks, five 
waitresses and three laundresses in two 
months.”— Harper's Bazar.
