IN ENGLISH
Mr. Harrison (Eng. 103) : “Mr.
Ivey, in ‘The Wife’ What does
Irving say a wife should be to
her husband?”
A. Ivey: “Well, a sort of
corporation. ’ ’
Jennie Swearingen: “Oh, you
are still on Soc. 102.”
A. Ivey: “Oh, or—I meant to
say they should have coopera-
tion. ’ ’
Mr. H: “In other words she
should be a complement. Now
Mr. Ivey, just what would you
say is the theme of that selec-
tion?”
I. Ivey: “ Why, it tells' just
what points to look for about a
good wife.”

DINING CAR FORWARD
A poetical Shimmie in Nine
Stanzas Through Twelve
Passengers Cars
Last call for dinner.
Rise from your seat.
Sink back gracefully,
Then repeat.
Start for the diner,
Right and left sway,
Meet fat lady in the
Narrow way. ,
One step forward,
Two steps hack.
Shove her in the wash-room
All clear track.
Train starts to lurching,
Down on all-fours,
See funny names on the
Vestibule doors.
Meet hungry fellow,
He says, “Hey!
Going to the dining car?
T’other way!”
Reverse your engines,
Feeling pretty sore.
See the silly people yon
Saw before.
Trip over baby,
Land, on your ear.
Smell chops burning,
Diner’s near.
Dodge past a waiter,
Train takes a loop,
Put a steady hand
In someone’s soup.
Sit next to lady
Whose husband has gone,
Order an oyster cocktail;
Party’s on.
—Galveston ‘ ‘Review. ”

ON THE WAY TO CLASS'
“Have you ‘Lambs Tales’ in
your muff?”
“No, this is Mexican Hairless
Dog.”—Ohio State Sun Dial.
BY THEIR FRUIjTS SHE
KNEW THEM
In her draped and darkened
tent the amateur palmisl was
telling fortunes for the charity
bazaar.
‘Ah,” she said with slow im-
pressiveness to the fair maiden
who impatiently awaited her
fate. “I see by your hand that
you are going to he married.”
How wonderful, ’ ’ breathed
the client with a blush and a
giggle.
“And,” went on the wise one,
a note of acerbity creeping info
her voice, “I see the happy man
is to be Mr. Binks.”
“But surely,” demurred the
maid, “you cannot read that
from the lines in my hand.”
“Lines noting!” exclaimed the
sybil with sudden seen. “You
are wearing the ring I returned
to Mr. Binks three weeks ago.”

BOAT'S OR BOOTS?
Whose ferryboats are those
in the hall?” he asked when he
entered the dining room.
“Ferryboats?” cried his mother-
in-law, angrily. “Why, those
are my shoes!”
“My dear mother,” said Jack-
son, hurriedly, “who said ferry-
boats? You misunderstand.
Fairy boots, you know, fairy
boots!”
And then he wiped the sweat
from his brow.—Philadelphia
North American.
