Show - ill' I ET1X, MNGHAM iWnN, IT AH LAFF1 LINES I Well Preserved SOMEONE admiring the lovely of RilJ Nye, famous humorist, inquired how he managed to keep them so white. "Oh, that's easy," the humorist replied. "All teeth will remain white if they are properly taken care of. Of course, I never drink hot drinks, always brush my teeth morning and evening, avoid all acids whatever, and although I'm 40 years old my teeth are as good as ever." "And that's all you do to preserve your teeth, is It?" asked the other. "Yes, sir," replied Nye, "that's all barring, perhaps, the fact that I put them in a glass of soft water each night." OVEREMPHASIS A blushing young woman handed the telegraph clerk a telegram, con-- ! taining only a name, address and one word, "Yes." Wishing to be helpful, the clerk said: "You know, you can send 10 words for the same price." "I know I can," replied the young woman, "but don't you think I'd look too eager if I said it 10 times?" With Sound Effects While visiting in France, the Ital-ian composer, Rossini, learned that a group of wealthy admirers planned to have a statue erected in his honor. "How much will it cost?" he in-quired. "Ten million francs," was the re-ply. Rossini, who was poverty-stricke- n at the time, chuckled. "How ex-travagant," he said. "For five mil-lion, I'll stand on the pedestal my-self." News From Nursery The patter of little feet was heard at the head of the stairs. The party hostess motioned for silence. "Listen," she cooed. "The chil-dren are going to deliver their good-nig- message. It always does something to me when I hear them." There was a moment of hushed expectancy. Then from Uie head of the stairs: "Mom, Willie found another bed hug." I He Could Wait Bill Brawley, the strong man of the village, met a little traveling salesman in the local inn. During their conversation, Bill called the salesman a dope. The little fellow naturally resented the remark. "Look here, Brawley," he said, "I'll give you just two minutes to take that back." Brawley swelled out his chest and said: "I ain't in no apologizin' mood tonight!" "Okay, then," said the little sales--na- "I'll extend the time." Opportunity Beckons During the course of dinner-tabl- e conversation recently, a three-year-ol- d boy inadvertently mentioned that he had to stand in the corner at kindergarten that day. Question-ing revealed that he had been pun-ished for putting mud in a little girl's mouth. His mother, horrified, asked: "Why in the world would you put mud in a little girl'i mouth?" Shrugging his shoulders, he answered very logically: "Well, It was open." CLASSY BOUNCING ! Bill What happened after you i were thrown out the back door of the bar?

Turn a sun lamp on them at night and they will grow faster. But the Smithsonian institution has found that plants like to change from light to dark. By switching the light on and then off at intervals they induced plants to grow twice as fast as under continual light. Lar Br fellers SgSLjg" . , , 1 1 Ti 'I Ml py jcu siojrc |
