tennessee uudc. "A LOUISVILLE
damsel was visiting Memphis, and
according to the Times was sitting
upon sofa with a fresh -young

anything of this. 1t is Just q way L
have. All the Memphis boys act
the same way, and you will have to
get used to it. l hope you will not
take any offence at it as it's just my

friend and sat down on the sofa
again. Soon she began to yawn and
give every indication of being thor

had better 60 home at once. Don't
be offended at this. 1t is simply q
way l have" He didn't linger.

1t is claimed by scientific author
tiles that the vibrations set in motion
by the voice never cease, and in six
hours have disturbed every atom in
our atmosphere. When few women
gather together and proceed to give
the rest of the community fits, it
don't seem as though it ought to
take more than about half that long
for the disturbance to make the
grand rounds. Chicago Ledger.
