J BUSINESS RELATIONS—“I wish you would send someone else to talk with this man about this deal,” said the head salesman to the president. “What’s the idea? This is an im- portant matter and you are supposed to take care of it.” “T know, but it will be terribly em- barrassing to both of us. You see this man is the former husband of my present wife.”— Detroit Free Press. A WorpD To THE WISE—A young psychologist stepped up to the Salva- tion Army man who was playing a hurdy-gurdy and said: “Look here. You notice that people passing by tend to keep in step with the music. Now, if you’ll change that quick time tune of yours to a slow march I'll guarantee you to get more people stopping here and contribut- ing to your collection.” That said, the psychologist confidently contin- ved on his way.—New York Evening Post.

The trouble is to find someone to pluck.—London Opinion. MATRIMONY His NERVE—Thomson came back to the office looking very brown. He had taken two weeks’ vacation di- rectly after Easter and so had been able to add several days to his rest period. To the amazement of his boss, however, he asked for a few extra days off. “Why, you’ve only just had your vacation!” ejaculated the amazed em- ployer. ‘What do you want the extra days for?” “T want to get married.” “Why didn’t you get married dur- ing your vacation?” the boss in- quired. “T didn’t want to spoil my vacation in that way,” replied Thomson.— Boston Globe. Ir CurED HER—Not a hundred miles from Folkestone a few months ago, a wife lay very ill. Having brought up a clever orphan girl, the sick woman called the young woman to her and said: “T shall soon leave my little chil- dren motherless. They know you and love you, and after I am gone I want you and my husband to marry.” The young woman, bursting into tears, said: “We were just talking about that.” The wife recovered.—Edinburgh Scotsman.
