Thoughts On My Tailor. He has my number. He gives fits and misfits as well, charging for both. He can size me up, if he can't suit me with a suit. He, at least, knows the measure of his man. He should be successful in love for he has cut out the suit of many a man, Some day both fame and fortune will be his when he has invented a trousers pocket that a man's wife cannot pick successfully. When my tailor gives my suit extra touches or trimmings, I get trimmed in his bill. May my tailor go to heaven when he dies unless, of course, he should wish to roast his goose, ~George W. Lyon.

Dreamy Eyes. I looked into her dreamy eyes Like bright stars glowing; In fact, she stole my heart away, Ere I was knowing; Her beauty and her dreamy eyes Both had me going, I leaned above her; I was wise, Though a beginner; "Dreaming of love," I whispered, "dear?" Thinking to win her; She answered, "No, I'm wondering What's here for dinner." ---E. D. K.. Advice to Girls: Curl while the iron is hot. (Copyright 1 904.
