Corn is about ready to cut and
will be fair crop after all. Some

now to cut up, if the weather would
settle down and dry up, but if it
keeps on so wet, the corn would
mold in the shock and not dry out
properly.

An editor works 3654 days per
year to get out the issues of his pa.
per-that's labor. Once in a while
somebody pays him a years sub
scription; that's capital. And once
in a while some son-of-a gun of a
dead beat takes a paper for year
or two and vanishes without paying
for it; that's anarchy. And again,
there is another c'ass who take the
paper for two, three, or four years,
then request the postmaster to say
they edon't want the paper any
longer" and never pay for 1t; that 8
robbery. But later on justice will
overtake the last named creature,
for there is place where he will
get his just deserts; that's He'll.

A certain Point Pleasant house
lsoeper had bad luck with her hak,
ing the other day-for some reason
the bread failing to raise properly.
She was telling her neighbor, over
the fence, of her bad luck, and ex-
pressed the wish that a tramp might
come along and get the bread. By
a curious coincidence a tramp hap
pened to come in the yard just in
time to hear the conversation, and
he at once expressed his willingness
to take the bread off the lady's hand.
1t was given to him, and off he
marched. We don't know whether
the bread has killed him yet or not.
