Show HIS CRITICISM RATHER HASTY Possibly Mr. Newlywed Will Make Discreet Inquiries Before He Make6 Another Complaint. A few weeks ago I was invited tc dine with a couple of old schoolmates who had been marrieu for some time. I was asked to bring a friend who had also attended school with us. The dinner looked appetizing, and was progressing smoothly with all of us in good spirits. .Suddenly, Jack, my married friend, turned to his wife and said: "Vera, what's the matter with these biscuits?" bis-cuits?" She made some sort of reply, whereupon where-upon he answered they were not fit to eat, that his mother could do better bet-ter baking, and asked who baked them. Vera, with an injured expression, answered : "Why, Jack, dear, youi mother sent them over this evening." Both, I know, wished the dinner over, and I found I had a pressing engagement directly afterward. Chicago Chi-cago Tribune. |
