| However gaily he had sailed through the
old year, New Years had been too much
for him. and he was very nearly used up
He dropped into seat, threw one leg on a

over his bloodshot eyes, solloquized thus:
"Never'll GO to another Fair as long as
live-never. All a hum. Spent heap Of
money in chauces-never drew W a thing
City feilers got 'sm all. Call it Fair

the sweet sloep of the hummer.
