_End of the Honeymoon_
An old married man happened to meet a beaming bridegroom on the latter'S first day at business after the wedding trip. "Hello!" said he; "finished your honeymoon yet?" "I don't know," replied the happy husband, smiling. "I have never been able to determine the exact meaning of the word honeymoon." "Well, then, has your wife commenced to do the cooking yet?" _If You Have a Mole_ No one is said to be without a mole or two, and these are some of the prognostications that mole-wearers may draw from their brown ornaments; A mole on the right side of a man's forehead denotes wonderful luck; on the right side of a woman's forehead, gifts from the dead. On the left side of a man's forehead a mole denotes a long term in prison, on the left side of a woman's forehead, two husbands and a life of exile. A man with a mole in the middle of his forehead has a cruel mind; a woman with such a mole is foolish and envious. |
