families to Rochester on the first Of June,

years has been so strict on the liquor
question that druggists were not allowed
to sell for medicinal, mechanical or sscra-
mental purposes, has finally "given in" on

Did you ever hear crazy turkey COB

Did you ever hear any one speak
Arabic in steDtorian tones?

views on something or other. AT first We
thought he had come in for visit, and
gave him the softest seat in the shop
Soon he warmed to his work and soon
painted and gasped tor breath, so deep
| was his rage. He actually frothed at the
mouth. a young man helped him to the
door, at great risk of danger to his eyes,
for the friends umbrella was jabbing
wildly.
Hc then proceeded to deliver All address
CLEANED from Aduocote editorials on the
gross negllgcnce'' of the council-we
suppose in not pos ting himself as COM

We afterwards learned he had Just
dropped IN to "stop his paper"!
