OF heart failure, and early in November
you will see him with a chip in his
mouth and another holding his chest
open SO that you can see the nice hard
finish on the inside of his thorax.
There is another fish that one finds in
the French Broad river, called the Pride
OF Perdition, think. 1t has legs on it,
and when man catches one he throws
down his pole, gives two blood curdling
shrlekS and hunts for Kelley institute.
The superintendent of my farm told
me about it. He caught one few weeks
ago and didn't feel like working for two
or three days after that. The mouth
was made at time when it was thought
I there was going to be more material than
there really was, and so the body is
slight and the legs are badly bowed
from trying to carry the mouth around
in search of more things to eat.
What Ticktown needs is good hotel.
AT present it is sadly deficient in hotels;
also everything else. But good hotel
is needed first. Also large, powerful,
urbane man to stop people who IN
consciously pass through the town and
never come back.
1t Is quiet. 1t is only two miles from
the main road and only fourteen miles
from Plum Lewis View. Good neigh
bors can always be found by coming to
my place. Street cars are contemplated
also by man who has been that way
ever since he fell out of hammock that
was hung on his piazza in the fall of 1871
by son-ln-law who then lived in Michi-
gan, but who has since moved to Oak
land, Cal, to open a dental Office, ac-
cordlng to local paper published in the
interests of the trade at $3.50 per year,
with the understanding that it is to be
PAID for In advance or as soon thereafter
as may be, though this is no way to pub
lish paper, as Isaiah SO truly said, for
the laborer is indeed worthy of his hire,
and this is found to be the case especially
among workingmen, and in the language
of DR.. Bartle, speaking of the Alliance
itself, and especially of Euripides, where
he tells of Antisthenes, who was one
day working in the new lot back of the
M. +. church with pair of restless
steers and a quarterly meeting going on
at the time, so that he could not address
the steers as he would have liked, and
the place being trihe rocky, as also
was Antisthenes, and the briers having
swathed his bare legs below the toga,
which did not amount to much anyhow.
"And what are you driving att" says
Euripides, who had just got poem into
a Greek magazine with the understand
ing that it was to be paid for as soon as
1t was published, if nothing happened,
and to be used anyway in case of his !
death, so he was feeling pretty well.
Driving at?' says Antisthenes; 4 am
driving at these pesky steers and doing a
little more work to get little more |
money to buy little more food to give
me little more strength so that can |
do little more work and get a little |
more money to get me little more food |
TO give me a little more strength So

DIR. Bartle says that he and Euripides
both came away and left the old man
sitting on the pillow beam vaselining his
brier beswatted limbs and going over
and over in the midst Of his quaking
beard with this same old, old grievance,
which is bothering every workingman
today, dear reader, you and | and all of
Us, and no member of congress can help
us out of it. No Republican or Demo
,ratic platform or hoarse campaign re-
'olvers can take this mighty burden
rom our aching shoulders. Only Gods
Kindly hand, when the day is done and
he drowsy crickets review the beautiful;
.orchlight procession of frefies, can
with gentle touch take off the heavy,
calling burden that he put there when
he world began, when every man was
old to eat with one hand and wipe his
1row with the other.
Is it not so?
And yet Ticktown, as l was saying, is
rec from malaria. Sewer gas and civil
.ation are unknown here except among
he better classes, and as the promoters
lave removed all fatal cases to another

capital and bag of -four are all that
We need here now to make things lively.

Ticktown is the home of the red bug,
which has recently become such an in
ustry here. If time should be hanging
eavily on your hands this summer, sit
own on an old log at the corner of
oudan and Coon streets, where the site
or the new opera house is patiently
waiting for the capitalist, and after an
