NEW MAN who thinks he can afford to pay five hundred per cent. interest on money is born every minute. : . HEN A MAN backs into his wife's train he becomes more intimately acquainted with her than he ever was before. 'HE SANDWICH BUSINESS for advertising purposes ought to be encouraged because it covers a multi- tude of shins. HARMony in religious thought is to be formally and seriously at- tempted next year; so that we are like- ly to have a great religious war. oe A LEAGUE against the use of the knife exists in Rome. Whether it has to do with table manners or the average Italian fight is not stated. * IVILIZATION has its rights. The Indians didn’t have the sole right to this coun- try, and the diamonds of the Transvaal are needed the world over. . THE MAIN IDEA of Richard Croker is to denounce trusts, Tammany hall is a pretty big trust, but we do not hear that the boss pro- poses to give up any of its profits. eee Mest OTHER MEN, thinks Miss Anthony, are as bad as Congress- man Roberts; but it may be something in their favor that they don't ask the church to make a vir- tue of it. se Lapy—"* You say you want ten cents fora so cheap?” Tramp— Over to Hogan's saloon, mum. THE LEADING PAPER of Havana says the manifest destiny of Cuba is annexation to the United States. The expansion idea is spreading rapidly. Probably it will take hold of the Philippines next. . * SENATOR INGALLS says that man in his best estate is the superior of any woman. Something used to be said about the stream never rising higher than its source, but we dare say the fact is obsolete. SA™ JONES of Ohio wants everybody to call Toledo the city of broth- erly love. Why steal her good name from Philadelphia? There are many spinsters in Toledo, and why not call her the city of sisterly affec- tion? F A MAN running for coroner in Colorado a local paper said he was “‘as pure of heart as any angel that ever spread his spotless wing in the golden realms on high.” The man was so pleased that he held four inquests before election. “ . A GOLF-STICK. A PLATFORM THAT WILL KILL. A NUMBER of Democratic newspapers which have a great fondness for Bryan find that if he is nominated on his own platform the Democracy is foredoomed to defeat. John McLean says he did him no good in Ohio, and William Goebel finds he did him no good in Kentucky. This is the beginning of the end, but it is doubtful if the end comes before November of next year. THE JONES VOTE, ‘THE MAN who edited the campaign paper of Jones of Ohio says the vote for Jones was not of the anti-expansion kind, and where his speakers attacked the administration they lost votes. And he adds that the prosecution of the war in the Philippines “is for the best interests of real liberty and humanity.” Evidently the Atkinsons will have to go to Aguinaldo for the small crumb of comfort they crave, and he is hard to find. THE WICKED GIRLS. MBS. PRICE of Chicago, who represents some kind of a woman's asso- ciation, says that there is as daily and constant sin in women’s colleges as in other places, and even that young college women sew, darn and give card-parties on Sundays; and for her part she doesn't believe in co-education without a chaperon. By all means let there be an investiga- tion at once, and let the chaperon, as possibly the wickedest girl, be put right on the rack. THE ONE OCCASION. ISHOP DOANE wants more solemnity in the marriage cere- mony and less of excitement and an absence of crowds. Generally one is married only once in his life, and it's a pity if he can’t have his own way on that occasion. The aged married man was rebuked by his wife for tumbling the clothes of his death -bed. “Well,” he said, “I never died before in my life, and for once I propose to have my own way. I'll kick thunder out of these bed-clothes if I want to.” AN IMPROVEMENT? AN ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE which began in Ohio has spread through thirty-two states and ter- ritories. It does not object to the moderate use of liq- uors, and opposes only the open saloon. The design is apparently to give the liquor business to the drug-stores and otherwise confine indulgence to the bosom of the family. Per- haps this would be an im- provement, but it would throw out of business thousands of men many of whom are good citizens. NARROWNESS IN THE WRONG MAN. DOCTOR JOHN WATSON complains that the church is touched with the social spirit and is doing too much to make religion entertain- ing. He doesn't like luxurious carpets, bouquets and oysters and ice- cream, Well, now# would this man return to fireless, carpetless churches and the idea that the more you suffer and sacrifice the better you are? Suppose he stop making his novels entertaining? He would certainly suffer from that, whether he became better or not, and so would his pub- lishers. golf-stick? Certainly; but where can you get them Finest brands uv Scotch whisky on'y ten a glass.” AN UNAVOIDABLE NECESSITY. ¢¢6LJOW WOULD it do to have a man without politics for president?” asks the Troy Press. How could a man sufficiently conspicuous to be president be without politics?.” Fighting is politics. Commerce is politics, for it is regulated by law. ‘istory is politics. The events of every day are politics commensurately ‘vith their importance; and every man who votes is guilty of politics, whether he thinks he votes for a man with- out politics or one with politics. And the men who denounce politics are guilty of the worst politics of all, for they want to destroy the political sys- tem on which the republic itself is founded. comicbooks.com
