Calling Down the Nurse.
Little Frank’s nurse, when finding
him In mischief was in th*a habit of
exclaiming: ‘’What in the name of
common sense are you doing? One
morning, while she was bathing him,
he asked: “What in the name of cop
per cents do you mean br getting soap
in my wes?"^_
Voung Man Must Have Friends.'.
For boys and young men friendship
la a prime necessity of existence.
When a man has established himself
in life and the interests of home and
tvife and family have absorbed him,
he may, perhaps, dispense with friend
ship. But as long as he is young, un
married and unsettled, he is as de
pendent on friendship as on air or
;ood.
Had Stood Hard Test.
•1 understand that you once sang In
a glee club.” “Yes/' replied the great
politician. “And I want to tell you
when a man with a voice like mine
can hold a position In a glee club
ft snows that he is some officeholder”
—Los Angeles Listener
Where They Stand.
Some men who believe they are
