First Sergeant Grizzell of the
Spokane recruiting station vouches
for the following incident, which
occurred when three of the appli
cants of that station were making
an application' to the director of
the United States Marine Corps
Institute, Quainieo, Va.
Two of the applicants had spell
ed the wtjrd grammar as "gram
nier," and were busily making
corrections when the third appli
cant came along. He asked :
"What are you changing the
word grammar for?"
"Why, we spelled it wrong,"
answered one of the applicants.
"Give ni that rubber," said the
third man. "Darned if I ain't
spelled it with two m's myself."
CRUEL.
Miranda: "Is Nydia pretty?"
Dorothea: "Well, I should say
i he only chance she has to be fallen

BUT HIS LOVE LASTS LONfJER.
The college professor who says
that after a man is thirty years old
he is guided by common sense in
falling in li.ve must have forgotten
that there's no fool like an old
fool.

and Depressed Read Her
Own Story ol Recovery.
Pstnt Rock, Ala. Mrs. C. M. Btefalt,
Of near here, recently related the fol
lowing Interesting account of hor re
covery: "I was In a -weakened con
dition. I was lick thno years In bed,
suffering a great deal of pain, weak,
BerrouB, depressed. I was so weak,
t couldn't walk across the floor; Just
had to lay and my little ones do the
work. I was almost dead. I tried
every thing I heard of, and a number of
doctors. 81111 1 didn't get any relief.
I couldn't eat, and slept poorly. I
belters It I hadn't heard of and taken
Cardul I would have died. I bought
tlx bottles, after a neighbor told ma
what It did for her.
"I began to eat and sleep, began to
gain my strength and am now well
and strong. I haven't had any trou
ble since ... I sura can testify to the
good that Cardul did me. I don't
tliln'; there is a better tonic mads
and I bcllev It saved my life."
For over 40 years, thousands of wo
men have used Cardul successfully,
In the treatment of many womanly
ailment".
If you suffer as these women did,
take Cnrdul. It may help you, too.

THE LADIES,
The world is so full of the wonderful ladies
Who smile with the radiance known of the sun ;
The world is so full of remarkable ladies
Who wield all the power of heaven and hades,
It's really absurd to go wild about one.
If Fate hands the ardent admirer a twister
And "she" throws him down with a dull, sick'ning ihud,
l ie ought to forget her and go find her sister
l-'or sisters she has by the millions. O mister!
And each is as charming and pretty a bud.
Now, someone has said, and there's quite a lot in it,
That women like trolley cars, keep going by;
If one hides her heart so you really can't win it,
Another will be right along in a minute;
You only lose lime when you mope and you sigh.
So be not discouraged at her farewell letter;
Cheer up, saddened swain, there is still hope for ihee.
The one you went batty about when you met her
You're probably lucky that you didn't get her,
And there are more girls than the sands of the sea.
TRUE.
Jack How did Bob come to
lose Gladys?
- Henry Oh, he swore he'd al
ways keep her in mind."
"Well?"
"His rival came along and took
the girl herself in his arms."
"EXCUSE IT, PLEASE."
Voice at the Phone: "Hello
hello that you, George? Listen,
old man. I'm up against it and
I'm looking for a little financial
succor again."
Voice at the other End: "Say,
do you mean to insinuate?
GENEROUS BEQUEST.
There recently died in Illinois
an aged farmer, reputed to be
wealthy. After his death, howev
er, it was discovered he left noth
ing. And his will ran like this:
"In the name of God, amen.
There's only one thing 1 have. I
leave the earth. My relatives have
always wanted it. Now they can
have it."
QUITE EVIDENT.
The teacher screamed, clasped
one arm nd registered genuine
agony.
"A bee stung me," she shrieked,
shaking that much mashed offender
out on the lloor.
"Yep," piped Johnny Jones.
"I seed itcrawlin' upyoursleeve."
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
the exasperated leacher demanded.
" 'Cause," replied the guileless
Johnny. "I knowed you'd find it
out."

"What is the shape of the

"Don't know sir," piped the
class.
'Well, what is the shape of my
snuff box?"
"Square, sir."

VICTORY.
On the day after the armistice
that ended the not-so-laie war a
Southern mountaineer, driving
down from the hills on one of his
rare visits to town encountered a
whiskered squirrel hunter.
"What was that thar racket down
lo ihe Forks last night, stranger?"
he inquired. "Red lights and fire

it mought be some sort of a cele

"Did'nt ye hear? The war's over "
"It is? Say, did we did we
win?"
"We shore did."
"Hooray!" shouted the moun
taineer. "It took a leetle more
time than I expected but I never
had a doubi for one durn minute
but what we'd finally lick them
