uttering the words, "Mr. Greeley, we might
as well give it up" The Sage Of Chappa-

says What know about climbing a pine
tree" In rear Of the tree there is hand.
some national flag, and above are strips of
bunting, with stars and stripes festooned
around. On the background were the words,

ment was very tastefully executed, and must
