and If the religious. political, legal, muni-
cipal and moral requirements of Cairo did
not need us so much that they cant d"

Col. Bill Love, before he started TO

1t is a marvel how the Padvcdh ked-
tuckian continues to get off so much wit at
the expense of Cairo. If he only knew
how he keeps our city in roar, by read
ing hi. intensely funny filings, he would
give up trying to make the world believe
he was wise and come out in his proper
character, with cap and bells. 1t is posi-
lively cxcruciating to be compelled to
laugh so much, and from sheer exhaus-
ton, we beg him TO refrain, else he may do
some of US a serious damage. We ask
him to remember, that
Fools step in, where angels fear to tread -
and lest some should confuse him with
one or the other Of these two, he can save
both his reputation and his wit by tenn
porary suspension of the last as he has
done. long ago in the case of the first.
