ANGER
Charlie and Nancy had quarreled. After their supper Mother tried to re-establish friendly relations. She told them of the Bible verse, "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath."
"Now, Charlie," she pleaded, "are you going to let the sun go down on your wrath?"
Charlie squirmed a little. Then:
"Well, how can I stop it?"
When a husband loses his temper he usually finds his wife's.
It is easy enough to restrain our wrath when the other fellow is the bigger.

MRS. JONES—"Does your husband remember your wedding anniversary?"
MRS. SMITH—"No; so I remind him of it in January and June, and get two presents."

The student who, studying for the ministry, took chemistry because it was obligatory in the course, replied, "I would administer the sacrament."
