AT THE sHAG BARK HICKORY.
and my stomach is a sight to behold.
You have read about the corrugated
stomach of Sandow. Well, he cannot
attract any more attention in that way.
The red bug is about the size of a
fake of cayenne pepper, and even the
adult would rattle around in pore Of
the skin. He or she, as the case may be,
burrows under the cults vera, or true
skin, and then, heating the tail in a
small alcohol lamp, proceeds to bore
even farther in.

back, and l am as pleased as child.
am with party. 1t is party who
would like to climb peaks in the hot
sun, while want to get behind large
cool cataract and think. They call me
indolent and hate me because | am sat
isfied with one full size mountain and
hesitate about scaling other peaks which
may not need it. So they call me the
universal mistruster and take the VIC
tuals with them, and I've had to scale
four peaks that did not want to rather
than subsist on branch water, roots,
herbs and berries in their season.
There is a great deal of wild land
about here. 1t is still sowing its wild
oats as | write these lines. A meeting
was held in June TO promote immigra-
ton into the south, there being so much
unimproved land. The convention was
held at Augusta, and the first half of
the session was devoted to the glad re-
union of the governors of North and
South Carolina, who made addresses, as
did most everybody else, and the day
was devoted entirely TO a general en-
comium business. 1t is too bad that this
rhetorical embroidery and symposium
of wind could not give place to actual
business and these almost unbounded
lands be opened up TO settlement instead
of running wild for ages while the own
and actually suffer for the necessities
of life.
The railroads, / am sure, are more than
generous and show more signs of mean
ing business than anybody else perhaps,
offering many inducements TO actual
settlers who wish to come either from
other portions of the United States or
from abroad, provided they can give the
best of references. Titled people, es-
pecially from Italy, would be expected
to bring good certificates of character
from their last place.
We are having rather a dry spell
now, and my garden looks like a pros
porous baseball ground. l took my gar
dener a week ago, and we both knocked
of work to go to the races. / give a
rough drawing showing the effect of
watching race twice around the track
as viewed from the center of the course.
A fat lady was standing on one of my
feet, so that could not move very well,
but wished 10 see the finish of the race
very much.
