Now it is not exactly our business to instruct New York delivery managers in the ramifications of the feminine mind.

A Traveler's Measure John D. Rockefeller, Jr., was talking, on his trip home from Panama, about tips on ocean liners. “There is a fixed unit of tip $2.50—or, at least, there used to be,” he before everything went up, and most travelers go above rather than low the unit, Travelers, as a class, are generous, and at any rate I have no patience with the stewards and waiters who complain, “(A steward, on an ocean liner, one: said to me at the end of a voyage “*Mr. Blank ain't worth much—I can tell that.’ “How can you tell?” said I. “Oh, he answered, ‘it's easy for us ewards to take a man’s measure.’ ““T suppose,’ said I, ‘you measure him from tip to tip?’” —Washington Star. “Dartixc, do you love me for myself alone?” “Why, certainly, Charles.
