The Graphic FUNNY LEAF
OVERSTAYED HIS DREAM.
“I had a great dream the other night. I dreamed I met a man who offered to cut me a pound slice of radium.” “Whew! It’s worth mote'n a million an ounce!” “That’s right. ’Want a slice?’ he says to me. ‘Yes.’ I answered him. But 1 was too grasping'.” “How was that ?” “I woke up ju-t at the very moment I asked him to cut it thick.”
THOSE FOOLISH QUESTIONS. Mr Sapient: “1 beg your pardon, sir, but are you hurt?”
“Grandpa, do you have to be awful good to get into Heaven?” "Yes. my boy.” “Well, I’ve about made up my mind to try for the booby prize.”
W hen blues and dumps and things awry Encompass me about. One glance into your merry eye Gives my despondency the lie And puts my woes to rout.
Ah. laughing, dialling little lass! Pray tell me. what's your fee? Since mirth is physic you might pass As qualified ni.’d.
“And you think the good die young?” “Thev do if they're wise!”
Khaki: “That's right, fool bird; bury your head like a worm and imagine yourself out of danger.” The Ostrich: “Get out, you idiot! Can’t a bird dig under the sand after a few pebbles for his digestive apparatus? Just take a large trek for yourself.”
