They did their duty nobly-
In all depends on how physician

whiskey, he generally gets well in a
day, but if he makes the sick man
set 'em up to all sorts of vile stuff, he
gets sicker all the time.
And so you are beat,
Billy Boy. Billy Boy.
And so you are beat
Charming Billy.
No more you drill the boys,
With British coats and childish joys
The people don't relish 1t
Dear Billy.
How the election excitement alb
serbs everything. What funny
country this would be if there were
never any presidential elections, The
people would speedily send any man
who would want to be king and rob

The region on both banks of the
Salt River is said to be very pictur-

Russell" the Massachusetts dem

"The Republicans have tried many a
time to put President Cleveland in a

large enough to hold him. He invaria.

He is "holed" securely now, dear
brother. The cavity was so big, and
his jump so lame that he was caught
at last. But, you know how big now
the hole is. You are now just get
