WHAT SHE SAID.
Into the office of the local newtpaper walked a cheery old gentleman. Behind the counter est a damsel, au attractive damsel, absorbed in » letter from the "boy" who escorted her to the '"pictures" on Saturdays. The old gentleman coughed, but no notice was taken of him. Again he coughed—without result. So, tappin the counter gently, he politely asked. <; May I have copies of your papo for a week back?" Still the damsel continued reading. The old gentleman grew angry. "May I have papers for a week back?" he repeated firmly. The damsel focussed two dark eyes upon him. "Why not try the chemist's shop next door?" she asked. "It's a plaster you want." And she resumed her reading.
