Gus smaller rings working inside of it.

the working of this complicated ma

profound secret. The democratic masses
are hoodwinked by blind brides, and
have really no voice in the choice Of pub.

men selected for them.

Yum, Yum !

They were very loving, evidently just
married. She had an aching tooth, and
the pair wendell their way to dentists
Office on Commerce street. While the
dentist was getting his stump-pullers
ready for the snag, the husband began
COnsoling her and giving her courage,
much to the amusement and detestation
of the clerks and cash boys in the store
opposite, who knew nothing in the art
of OSCILLATION in none save, per-
haps, its preliminary branches, and
were glad to get pointers on the
gum-sucking, understanding process.
Whenever the dentists back was turned,
her appealing look of agony was turned
upon him, and splitting the blood from
the mouth they went at it yum-yum,
until this reporter could stand it no
longer, and began searching for some
thing to hug, but found that that the
only lay figure in the store, covered BY a
pair Of women's corsets, was already
being mOnOpolized by two clerks who
were squeezing the life out Of it.
