"TIME brings all things."

Toes

In Upper Finlay River, British Columbia, one J. Omera, a trapper, suffered frostbite in the four small toes of his right foot. Soon he observed that his bitten toes had become infected. Since there was no surgeon at hand, J. Omera seized a kitchen knife and whittled away for three days until his toes were off. Then he bound up his bloody foot and tramped to Prince George, where a surgeon said he had performed the amputation so efficiently that no further treatment was necessary.

Shrew

Well aware that the best method of dealing with a shrew is to put her in the water, one George Hall, Manhattan insurance solicitor, was accustomed, when circumstances permitted, to soak Madeleine La Verne Hall, his wife. Last week, suing George Hall for a separation, she specified this practice as an example of his alleged cruelty. Sic: "Accompanying his actions by violent language, he threw the plaintiff, fully dressed, into the bathtub and turned on the shower, drenching her, and thereby endangering her health."

Butter and Sleet

"I'm not a flapper but would like to correspond with men and women between the ages of 25 and 32." Fat Nellie Wallace wrote that in Tchula, Miss.; lonely Joe Sleet read it in El Paso, in the advertising columns of a magazine. He wrote to Nellie Wallace and sent her a lock of hair. That was ten months ago.

In January Joe Sleet wrote to Nellie Wallace: "Dear I am so proud and happy to know that you are a Baptist too. What do you know, I am one of the youngest deacons in our Church? I don't think there is any harm for a deacon to learn to love some one and I do hope you will allow that some one to be you." Nellie Wallace replied that there was a spark of love aglow in her heart.

Joe wrote back: "Sweetheart, you can now see that my heart belongs to you." He sent with these words a picture of a heart from which "love drops" sprinkled. Nellie replied: "With love to you with friendship true there is no love I love like I love you."

Joe Sleet: "Say yes now, Nellie, or Papa will have to spank."

Nellie: "Joe, dear, my answer is yes." In February, Joe Sleet sent Nellie Wallace a ticket and she came to El Paso. He saw then, for the first time, that Nellie Wallace was fat as butter; she appeared cheerful however and he did not regret his correspondence. They had a wedding.

Last week, Joe Sleet was engaged in divorcing his wife.

Joe Sleet: "That girl couldn't cook. She tried to fry a steak one day and used so much grease it was awful. And eat--why she would eat a cube of butter at one meal and drink a quart of milk a day."

Nellie: "I can cook but my mother-in-law wouldn't let me."
