rut and the hay fell Off again. He put 1t
back again, started for home, and the rain
came little nearer. He got to the barn and in
his hurry to drive in he ran of the bridge
and the hay fell over against the side Of the
barn. BY that time the rain commenced to
fall, and his good wife, seeing that some
thing had happened started out from the
house The old mans patience gave out. He
am about to express myselfi' Gaushter.5

And If you don't want to hear vigorous
language you had better keep cotton in
your ears when the election returns come
in. Great applause)
