“Vot’s der difference between capital 
unt labor?” “Capital don’t haf to labor, 
urit labor don’t haf der capital.” — 
Cleveland Leader. 
The Office Boy: “There’s a man 
out there with one eye named Markert.” 
Mr. Krusty (absently) : “Find out the 
name of his other eye.”—Mobile Regis¬ 
ter. 
A parent who evidently disapproves 
of corporal punishment wrote the 
teacher: “Dear Miss: Don’t hit our 
Johnnie. We never do it at home ex¬ 
cept in self-defense.” — Sacred Heart 
Review. 
“What is your member of Congress 
noted for?” “Well,” answered Farmer 
Corntossel, “around here he’s mostly 
noted for arguments that won’t go down 
and seeds that won’t come up.”—Wash¬ 
ington Star. 
“You people have a primary law out 
here. How do you like it?” “Suits me 
first rate. Gives me a chance to take a 
whack at a bum Congressman without 
going outside of my party to do it.”— 
Chicago Tribune. 
Shorthorn : “Isn’t it a lot of trou¬ 
ble to pick out your own cows from 
that big bunch ?” Longhorn: “No, 
stranger* My troublc’d come ref I 
tried ter pick out some other feller’s 
cows.”—Cleveland Leader. 
“You must learn to trust your fel¬ 
low-men,” said the professional opti¬ 
mist. “There’s no use in talking that 
way to me,” answered the worried- 
looking citizen. “I’m in the grocery 
business'.”—Washington Star. 
“Yes, my friend, I was about to marry 
the countess when 1 suddenly learned 
that she spent more than fifty thousand 
marks a year on her, dressmaker.” 
"Then what did you do?” “Why, I mar¬ 
ried the dressmaker.”—Meggendorfer 
Blaetter. 
“I should think it would be a great 
relief at night to get home and away 
from this ceaseless asking of questions,” 
remarked the stranger. The bureau of 
information man smiled a wan smile. 
“It isn’t much relief,” he replied; “I’m 
the father of eight children.”—Philadel¬ 
phia Record. ' \ 
He was making his arrangements to 
spend the Summer at ' a farmhouse. 
“What have you i*i the,way of scenery?” 
he asked. “There’s nothin’ in the way 
but a couple o’ mountains,” replied the 
farmer. “If it wasn’t fer them you 
could see scenery clear to the county 
seat.”—Philadelphia Record. 
“Yes,” lie said thoughtfully, “when 
I get too bumptious and haughty and 
puffed tp with the consciousness that 
I am a citizen of the most progressive 
nation that ever existed I have an ad¬ 
mirable way of bringing myself back 
to earth again.” “What do you do?” 
“I go to New York and look at the 
horse cars.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. 
“I’ll be kind o’ glad when Josh gits 
home from school.” said Farmer Corn¬ 
tossel. “I have an idea he can be right 
useful.” “Are you going to put him to 
work?” “Maybe, I’ve exhausted all the 
language I know on that team of mules. 
But I haven’t given up hope. I want to 
see whether Josh can startle ’em some 
with his college yell.”—Washington 
Star.

SEA GREEN AND PURPLE SLATE ROOFS 
CARRY THEIR OWN GUARANTEE 
I F you went to a dealer and asked 
him to sell you shingles, galvan¬ 
ized iron or “READY ROOF¬ 
ING,” with a guarantee that it 
would last the balance of your life 
without painting, repairs or other 
attention or expense, do you think 
he would do it ? 
He would like to, but he couldn’t, 
because none of these roofings will 
give such service. 
There is just one roofing that you 
can buy at a trifle higher cost than 
short-lived roofing that nvill give you 
just such service. 
That roofing is 
Sea Green and Purple Slate 
nature’s own "'product. It is sold 
without any guarantee because it 
doesn’t need it. It is solid rock 
and cannot wear out. 
Sea Green and Purple Slate 
from every standpoint is the ideal 
roof. There is nothing about it to 
rust, warp, wear, peel or decay and 
it is absolutely fire-proof. 
It never needs painting, repairs or 
coating of any kind, and, once laid, 
your roofing troubles are ended 
forever. 
Your time is valuable. Can you 
afford to waste it in worrying about 
your roof or in painting and repairing 
it every little while ? • 
Think of that and think also of 
the money you will save in years to 
come if you roof-with
