Correspondence Of the ST. CIairsviIle Gazette. !
1t is really very funny to see some Of our proml-
nent citizens walking about the town with a copy
Of McGufey's Speller in their pocket. 1t is now
their "TGde mscum." For instance, ask Ross
Alexander legal question, and he will spell
"secresy" for an answer; ask DR.. Cooke what to
give your baby, and he will spell you "conglome-
ration" ask Mr.. Z. p. Rhodes what cigars are
worth by the hogshead. and he will spell "dip-
thong" and walk on: ask Mr.. HOLSTER how are
insurance rates, and he simply spells Niagara"
and seems to stand in Mt Of aostractedness, as
do all Of them; ask DIR. RoHles how he sells
drugs, and he will blush like q girl, and simply
and sweetly spell "bamboOZle," and blush more:
ask Brad Smith what -four Is worth, and In his
blandest style he will put his hands on McGuffey,
and deliberately spell "latitudinarian." And so
they 90: all are affected alike; all are on the
SPELL II cur farmer friends discover a suspicious
movement on the part Of our prominent men
when they ask them questions, don't be scared:
they are not feeling for revolver, but for their
speller-"Only this and nothing more"
