Gent Irish brother found pabulum,
intellectual, and humorous. Who
knows? Let US assume that it did.
and that that is the reason why our
ambitious Congressman-elect, forgot,

good sized family of children, all
eager for things gastronomic and

York and Maine twenty years ago.

The echo to this remark
is heard from those who use the
goods, " We can't wear them out"

Johnson is one of our thriving vii
lagos. Besides it's various local in
dustries, it has a Normal School

tubs, and to the wooden and yarn in
dustry is added the foregoing enter

avail themselves of the chance to
visit it.
