UNCLE WILLIAM SAYS

A Few Sensible Things Once in a While.

If I was lookin’ for a sucker I'd hunt for the feller who is allus braggin’ that he’s nobody’s fool

It has allus seemed to me to be mighty thin consolation fur a poor man to de- clare that riches don’t make happiness

Somehow or other we don’t appear to extract as much comfort out of this life as we really orter Perhaps it’s because my naybur hain’t the man he should be

The feller who mortgages his lands to buy # pianer for his house has to try awful hard to find any music in the strings

I believe in loving my naybur as my- self until he begins to kill off my hens Then I’m goin’ to buy lace curtains and upholstered cheers to make him feel as bad as he possibly can

The feller who figured that a clothes- line would last six weeks longer if taken down every night was all right as fur as he went, but he might have also figured that it would take jest twelve weeks off’n any man’s life to doit Things is purty nigh right without any figurin’ at all

I once knowed a bank president who didn’t chaw, smoke, play keerds, attend hoss races, drink beer or use cuss words, but he cleaned out the institution and went to Canada jest the same I'm allers & leetle bit skeery of angels who walk around on airth

Even if we never say a word about it, it is human natur’ to feel sort 0’ tickled to know that our naybur’s fence is two foot over our line and that we can raise a row any time we want to

I never yit went to a man and asked him to give me his advice without I had my mind fully made up to believe him a fool if he didn’t think as I did about it If he was a lawyer. however, and charged me $10, why that altered the case

I’ve heard a heap 0’ men talk about luck in my time, and so fur as I have been able to keep track of individuals, the ones hoetn’ corn at adollar a day in- stead of talkin’ on the grocery step got ahead the fastest

Now and then you meet a man who has soured on the world and can’t see no good in nuthin’ nor nobody In sich cases jest size him up and you'll find a chap alifired mean that a yaller dog wouldn't foller him

She turned her head, noticed that the bride was considerably older than the groom, and in the smoothest of tones said :—

““Madam, will you please haye your son close the window behind you?’’

The *‘son’’ closed his mouth, and the

bride no longer giggled Hadn't Strack Him <_<
