A SENSIBLE QUESTION.
An Irishman went into Mr.
Rick's jewelry store to buy a clock
and the jeweler showed him one
for $10. "What $10 for that bit
of clock!" he exclaimed. "Is
there anything wonderful about
it?"
"Yes," replied the oilier, "It
is an eight-day clock."
"And what of thai?" inquired
Pat.
"Why," answered the jeweler,
"it goes eight days without wind
ing." Pal scratched his head in bewil
derment. "So much as that?" he said,
"Well, there's one question I'd
like to ask you. If it goes eight
days without winding, how long
will it go if you wind it?"
HEASON EOR FAITH.
At Princeton they tell of a fresh
man who, as he blithely went his
way whistling on the streets one
day, was accosted by a classmate:
"Whither away?"
"I'm going to Dr. Smith's to be
examined for appendicitis," said
the other.
"Great Caesar!" exclaimed the
class mate, "you don't seem to be
very much worried about it."
"Oh, no," said the freshman,
"there won't be anything doing.
I've never been able to pass an
examination the first time in all my
young life."

TELLS HOW SHE BUYS
WAR SAVINGS STAMPS
Woman Tells How by Intelligent Sav
Inns Plan She Is Able to Accumu
late Money Which Was Formerly
Waatsd.
"Save while the money is warm" te
the motto of a woman who has estab
lished a reputation both for herself
and her family by the number of War
Savings Stamps she bought without
apparently stinting in the least Here
is her system.
"The only way to save Is to save.
When I have actually saved a quarter
I put It Into a Thrift Stamp without
delay. If I save that quarter on one
thing and then spend It carelessly for
something else, I have Dot saved any
real money.
'Tor example the other day I went
down town expecting to pay $10 for
a pair of special shoes. To my sur
prise, I found there was a sale that
day. and got the very pair of ihoes I
wanted for 17.75. I had saved 1
Hut how to keep It saved. I knew that
if I simply regarded It mentally as
saving, before the end of the morfth It
would he spent nilscellanetpMsly. 1
went right down stairs In the store
and bought nine Thrift Stamps and
stuck those quarters In the Thrift card
where they could not get away before
the end of the month.
'1 do tbe same thing when I have
saved a single quarter or half dollar,
iind 1 am seriously thinking of getting
a little penny bank to hold saved pen
nles or dimes until they grow to Thrift
Stamp site. What is more, I am gel
ting whole lot of fun out of thli
most fascinating gume, the game ot

A MIRACiE.
A man from a bone-dry Arkan
sas community went to a wet Mis
souri town and was invited by an
acquaintance to have a drink. In
the saloon the friend asked:
"What are you going to have?"
"Have?" dreamily returned the
fisi.'or, blinking at the glorious ar
ray of barrelled and bottled goods.
I ain't going to haYe rnthin'."
"What do you mean, Uu'lx'?
You won't have a drink after com
ing all this distance?"
"Nope!" answered the Arkan-
sawyer. I here ain't no such
place as this. I'll wake up in a
minute." Lamar (Mo.) Demo

AN ABSURD QUESTION.
"You sign this deed of your own
free will, do you, madam?" asked
the lawyer.
"What do you mean by that?"
demanded the large, florid-faced
woman, looking threatening upon
the lawyer.
"1 mean there has been no com
pulsion on the part of your hus
band. Has there?"
"Him?" she ejaculated, turning
to look at the little, meek man sit
ting behind her. "Frederick? I'd
like to see him impulse me."
UOT HER LESSON.
"Do vou think vou could learn
to love me?" asked the ardent
young man.
"Well. I don't know." replied
the young thing, thoughtfully.
"I have $5,000 in Liberty bonds.
$10,000 invested in good paying
stock
"Go on; I'm learning."
"And $50,000 in well paying
real estate."
"All right, dear: I've learned.
Believe me, you're some teacher!"

About the first question our salesmen will ask you when you
try on one of our new
Is "How does it feel?" In other stores they ask "How does
it look?" The difference is that we will first select a hat that
will become you, and we know that a "Mallory" Hat will look
right, so what we want to know is whether the hat feels right
on the head, tte sure to have a look at our window this week
