The chemist down stairs did not have it.

Walker
"Why, asked for what you told me %

We notice in our travels recently the
decline of the buffalo overcoat in the north
west. 1t was at one time as much a char
acter1stlc OF the northwest as the sunbOn-
net ia OF the south. Below Mason-Dixon's

at least.
The buffalo overcoat, however, is pass

Paul and Minneapolis only seven or eight
of them, and they were almost entirely
bald. With the determination of the buf-
falo, judge that the buffalo overcoat will
become more and more difficult to obtain.
