Good Advice.
A man advertised recently In a Lon
don paper to forward on receipt of
postage stamps "sound practical ad
vice that would be applicable at any
time and to all persons and conditions
of life."
On receipt of the stamps he sent Ills
numerous victims the following;
"Never give a boy a penny to hold
your shadow while you climb a tree to
look into the middle of next week."
Repudiated.
"I am a self made man." said Mr.
Cumrox.
"Didn't your jvlfe have something to
do with your career?"
"She used to say so. But after see
ing how I behaved in society she ro
fusee to take any of the blame."-
