THE DEACON’S BULLETIN. An old deacon was very ill. Some of his neighbors thought it was worth while to ehronic'lo the progress of the disease, so they issued a. 5 o clock bulletin : “'Deacon Jones very iD; scarcely expected to live.'’ Four o’clock bulletin: ‘'Deacon Jones sinking rapidly.” Five o'clock bulletin; “Deacon Jones dead and gone to heaven.” Then an enterprising newspaper reporter, who did not think quite so highly of Deacon Jones, took it upon himself to issue a 6 o'clock edition, which ran like this : “ Extra- 6 o’clock bulletin : Great excitement in heaven! Tho deacon has not arrived yet!” Hubby (at 1 a.m.): “Baby will drive me mad if bo goes on crying much longer. Can’t you think of any way to stop him, dear?” Wifey: “I might sing him a lullaby, darling.” Hubby: “Oh, w<dl, never mind; perhaps wo had better let him cry, my love.” A sniff in time saves nius. Inhale “NAZOL” or take it on sugar. Kq cold is Nazol-proof. la 6J.—[Advt.]
