| Our ALMANAC FOR 1982.-January
will open with several drunka, fol-
lowed by cloudy brains, bad heal
aches and a general chillinsss. 1t
won't do to plant your potatoes at
this tiRe unless you get pile-driver
to sink hole in the frozen ground to
pat your "Murphiss" in. This month
| will be too cold for swimming pur-
poses but just warm enough to get
married in.
February will be several degrees
colder than August aud coal will be
unstealy--in the hands Of fellow
trying to raias it in the scuttls. The
Arctic. c.shoe fever becomes an epidemic
during this month, and gay widower
with bald head and glass eye can
probably make "mssh" on some
girl by picking her up from slippery
sidewalk. Take it tall the way through
about this time you may look for
ssms weather.
March will be ushered in by several
blows and continue, daily increasing
in violence, until the 18th when they
will have reached their climax. This
month will be a bad time for females
wearing big hoops. Farmers can
commence to SOW hickory nuts and
barrel slaves during the latter part Of
this month.
| April begins in the moist triplicity
and will be unusually felt around the
thlee-legged stool Of some aemi-weekly
editors. During this thirty days you
ars allowed to fool your girl by run
ming off with her sister. The house-
cleaning scourgs will generally pre-
vail aud owing to the condition of the
weather people will feel like ainging
"Ths water Of life is flowing"
| May commences with fall in the
price Of calico and sardines. Oysters
can be ploughed in pretty deep and
should not be pulled before Septem-
ber or they will be too green. Last
winters ulsters and dolmans can be
utilized into pants for the litsle boys
to slide down muddy hills in. The
thermometers this month can be
quoted as steady at market prices.
June is always prolific in Sunday
School picnics for the goody-gcody
boy who goes'tr service just before a
Christmas treat and picnic. Laven-
der-colored spring pants are in full
bloom but oftentimes they hang on
limbs that are little "too fresh. "
Handle gently last summers straw
hat and prepare for thunder storms.
The supply Of June bugs will exceed
the demand.
July opens up patriotically. Bun
ker--Hill-my-feller- r-citizens-spesches
that were preserved 10 with the other
} fruits last summer, will be good
enough for all purposes. Lager beer
will be on the downward tendency
! and cherry pies and cholera morbuf
will be booming. The Cumberland
!. bah will be full if not more Fuller
: with enthusiasm than four day old
calf. Scms parts of this month
westherly speaking will resemble Q
coal stove heated rod-hot.
August is full Of birthdays and
, fortunate for tooth-aches. Children
born at 4 o'clock a. m. this month
! will be either boys or girls, and begin
cutting incisors about the holidays
though several members of the Cum
berlaud bar will feel for their eye
teeth preparatory to the contest d
year later for the States Attorney
: ship. 1t will be bad month for the
majority of those who want to bt
Judge. In the lower walks of lif'
roostsra will sleep high and foze'
wander farther from home. Warn
!, weather will be plentiful at nigh
especially under double blankets
Sleeping harness should be light tt
u avoid bad dreams.
5 September springs into existence
with several embryo politicians eacf
Q anxious to serve their country ant
o fatten their pocket, books. Garrett
a county farmers will pslm off las
q years butter as fresh and the nonti
8 generally will be little too warn
g for whiskey hot and little too cole
It for beer. Engagements will be made
n between the young folks. Chickens
Q are apt to have the gapes and hairi
