SEEKING THE FACTS
"Don't you think she's gifted?"
"She may be.'
"You ought to know. You've just
heard her sing."
"Why didn't you ask me if I thought
her gifted as a singer! Then I could
have answered promptly. I thought
perhaps she could do something else.
Too Much Service.
"Waiter," said the fussy old gentle
mangy
"Yes. sir."
"I've made three different attempts
to take a dose of medicine in bait a
classfuil of water. Each time I got the
rater reduced to the right quantity
you rushed around and -filled up any
glass. Stay away -from me' until I
want you."
Disarming Criticism.
"Do you believe campaign orators
should enliven their speeches with lie-
morons anecdotes?"
"Certainly," said Senator Snorts -
worthy. -"after a .speaker has told
one or two good stories nobody but
an exceptionally hard-boiled charac-
ter would have the heart to. heckle
him:'
Watch That Didn't Vary.
"Henry," said Mrs. Gloonlp, at din -
:Tier, looking down at her watch, Left
speaking to Mr. Gloonip on the other
side of the table, "my watch hasn't
varied a second in a week."
"Remarkable!" said Mr. Gloonip,
"how did you get It to vary so little?"
"I broke the mainspring."
Knows Too . Much.
"How Is Mr. Grabcoln's business
career?"
"In what particular?"
,."Would it bear a dose inspection?"
"I don't know about that, but I dare
`*say Mr. Grabcoin's lawyer, isabout
the last man in theworld he'd want
:to write his biography."
