How She Broke lt Up

The two young married women were talking seriously over the afiairs of married life.

"f am very much concerned lately," said one of them, "about the way my husband is treating me. Gradually he has been getting lax in his attentioRs, stays down town for dinner quite frequently, leaving me home alone, and sometimes comes home late at night with very slim excuses. I don't like it at all."

"I went through that same experience," said the other, "but I soon broke it up."

"How?" asked the first.

"Well, I waited until he came in very late one night, and as he came quietly up the stairs I called out, 'Is that you, Charlie?' And that broke him of staying out nights."

"My goodness," said the other. "How did that break it up ?"

"My husband's name is John," said the first.

Yolo Causeway Will Be World's Consolidation

Largest Redwood Bridge

The bridge to be built for the widening of the causeway across the Yolo By-pass on the State Highway about five miles east of Sacramento, will be the largest ever constructed of Redwood.
