It was the first day of school and the teacher was taking the names of the students and the business of each one. Small Lucy gave her name and that of her father, he baptized and became a teacher. Urged by the teacher, she blushingly said: "He is aunt Jane that does the business of the beautiful columns of the newspaper." Useful Asset. A famous lawyer was well known as a delightful reconeuer. This gift was not only for him, but a valuable member of his own home circle, for it is related that at some point he met some to some friends, his old butter whispered to him: "Fir, you must tell me that I am a lawyer, and you should be ready for another ten minutes." The Wife and the Foe. There is this difference between a wise man and a fool. The wise man expects future things, but does not expect the present. The time enjoys the present, remembering the past with delight. But the life of the wife is wholly carried on to the life of the man. Concerning the Ear. Phone: Office P.5561. Res. C. 651 Dr. T. M.
