WENDELL'S WIT
A clergyman once at- tacked Wendell Phillips for causing what he called an unfriendly agi- tation in one part of the country about an evil that existed in another part.
"Why do you not go South and kick up this fus, and leave the North in peace?" exclaimed the accuser.
Mr. Phillips was not in the least ruffled, but said smilingly, "You, sir. are a minister of the gospel, are you not ?"
"I am. sir."
"And your calling is saving souls from Hell?" "Exactly." "Well, then, why don't you go there?"

MONEY
By Tramp Starr
Money is a fine thing. It will buy a lot- Palm trees in the winter, North lakes when it's hot. Motor cars and servants. Leisure without end- But could wealth. I wonder. Ever buy a freind? Money is a great thing, I would like it fine- Costly clothes and jewels. Rare food when I dine. Travel. books and pictures. These would come with wealth. But could all my riches Ever buy me health?
Money is a grand thing. At your beck and call: It will buy a town house. Country house and all: Lovely folks to talk to. Walk with. hand in glove. But could wealth. I wonder. Ever buy me love ? Poverty's a cruel thing. Gives a chap the blues. Saving for the landlord. Counting dimes for shoes. Wealth would bring me freedom This I must confess. But could wealth. I wonder. Buy me happiness ?
