")
Yes, P-t-r, it is quite proper to treat a lady friend to ice cream
twice if you can afford it.
No, F-l-c-t-y, it is not ladylike to chew tobacco. Better stick
to spruce gum.

FASHION NOTES
Frilled muslin aprons will be much worn this summer. It is no
longer fashionable to trim them with knitted lace. One pocket is
considered smart.
Clam-shells are fashionable keepsakes. You write your name and
the date inside one and your friend writes hers in the other and
you exchange.

FUNNY PARAGRAPHS
MR. PERKINS:--"Peter, name the large islands of the world."
PETER:--"The Island, the British Isles and Australia." (PETER,
DEFIANTLY: "Well, Mr. Perkins said he guessed I was right, so you
needn't laugh.")
This is a true joke and really happened. It's about Mr. Samuel
Clask again. He was once leading a prayer meeting and he looked
through the window and saw the constable driving up and guessed he
was after him because he was always in debt. So in a great hurry
he called on Brother Casey to lead in prayer and while Brother
Casey was praying with his eyes shut and everybody else had their
heads bowed Mr. Clask got out of the window and got away before
the constable got in because he didn't like to come in till the
prayer was finished.
