In last weeks ADVANCE we address,

turned Oh the hot air in the pipes that
run along the sky, and at midnight eye
rything was us still as two young folks
sparkling and us mild us Quaker meet
ing. 1t has continued mild ever since,
and Oh Monday there was some rainfall.
We return thanks to our old friend
for so promptly needing the suggestion
Of the ADVANCE. We used to he held

hoppers. and now if our enemies refuse
to give us credit for this thaw, we will
tip the wink to Boreas and have him
blow them all to smithercens.

The following brief poem is from the
pen Of one Of the best poets in the
Northwest, Miller Of the Worthington
ADVANCE, and appeared in the columns
of that paper last week. Its most stri-
king characteristic consists in the IL
nique and striking originality of the
method of rendering Il practical subject
poetical:
PAY up, pay up, pay up, pay up,
Pay up, pay up, pay up.
Fay up, pay up, pay up. pay up,
lay up, pay up, pay up.'
Yes, and here's another one which
keeps running in fellows head in
these days Of mortgage foreclosures and
land notices:

And the east half of the northwest quar-
ter,
