one card and filled straight of king
high. The fourth man drew two cards
and got the four aces. The fifth man
drew three cards aud got four Fights
The sixth and last man drew two cards
and got straight flush of spades with

you would like to- publish them, as it
was without the shadow of Il doubt u
straight deal.

the fellow with the spade flush won all
the money on the table, 10 wit: Two
so cent greenbacks, three ten cent

ard prompt and effectual to cleanse
the system gently in the Spring-time
or, in fact, at any time, and the better
it is known the more popular it be-
comes.

A Troublesome Cross.
A. SUMMERFIELD, p. NJ.

The Homer Index says: AT several
places around the lake the people are
ia II peck Of trouble. The bedbugs
have crossed with the woodticks and
produced kind of vermin that never
loses Its grip. When it gets surfelted,
it explodes like a torpedo but keeps on
burrowing and sucking with renewed
appetite.
We haven't got any hybrids, but we
have the good old honest woodtick,
and we will wager our bank account
against JIM Townsend's reputation fer
veracty that they viii bite harder and
burrow deeper than the Mono lake
torpedo bug.
