One OF those funny things the T,co-for
30 often lets loose to shake up de.
lighted community was the article last
week headed, "The Mayor, the Marshal
and the Little Boy who was Fined"
Now, the "little boy" has been a voter
for several years, as the Two.fors know.
He was fined because he pleaded guilty
to whipping his father. The fine and
costs were less than S., and the "little
boy" promised faithfully to pay them,
Saturday, out of his next pay at the
foundry. Three months went by, and
the "little boy" who owns horse and
buggy and has plenty of money for
dissipation, when ask about the fine and
costs grew saucy and cursed the officers.
Therefore, he was compelled to pay,
and the IWo.fors take spasm over the
sweet infant, who is large enough to
whip his father, old enough to vote and
rich enough to have lots of fun. 1t is
too bad that such darling babe must
pay his debts. This incident only shows
how reliable the 7aco-for is, and how
far it can deviate from the beaten path of
truth to crafty its malice.

'sThOn''

In regard to the question of Mr.. Lewis
concerning "the new" pronoun "thon,
l would say that I cannot see that the
Lynchburg Record ascribes its formation
to the writer. Mr.. Lewis is correct in
speaking of its origin, and of its verbal
reception by eminent philologists. The
article by the NEws-HERALD simply says
the writer "has used in the new edition
of that work new pronoun, thon," etc.
Call it new or old it makes no difference
to me. l claim it should be given gen.
eral recognition, as it fills real want.
l have presumed to give it this recogni.
tion. am not aware that any other
published work uses the word. There
is no copyright on it.

Ellis p. Hicks OF Mil Creek Hd.. In
speaking of llres which are frequently at.
tributed to incendiaries, suil that he be.
lieved that matches very often caused
serious coniiugratlons. In 1868 he occu.
pied the Pusey farm near Landeuberg.
Pa, and not feeling well he remained In
the barn while the men went out to bring
In a load OF wheat. The doors being open
the chickens came in, and commenced
scratching on the floor. A hen flew up
quickly aud Immediately bright blaze
followed, when he seized a bag on which
he had been sitting and smo thered the
flames. Had he not remained in the barn,
there would have been an other mysterious
fire. Since that time lie has not used the
psrlor match, nor has he allowed any
one to use it about his premises. The old
1t is the only ono that llnds favor IN his
eyes. Suoh lesson as ths above should
