Heard While Rambling
in the Ward.

Last Sunday was rainy one, while
the temperature of the atmosphere
made US think that winter was here
The weather was severe all day. Ear
ly Monday morning Mother Goose be-
gan to pick her feathers and left us a
mAntel of snow to gaze upon.
The churches were poorly attended
on Sunday.
At the First Baptist Church, Rev. r.
Beecher Taylor preached an excellent
sermon to an appreciative audience.
He reflected much credit upon HIM
self as a licentiate.
Professor HoVey of the Theological
Seminary filled the pulpit of the
Moore Street Baptist Church on last
Sunday morning
AS far as we have heard, the other
pastors filed their puipits. 1t being
the fifth Sunday, no special services
were held.
On last Sunday evening, the Odd
Fellows, Lincoln and Messiah Clubs
paid the last tribute of respect to their
dead in the midst of that heavy rain.
They we're out in great numbers. Oh,
that all organizations were thus loyal.
Sickness Is still walking through our
section; but we hope she sick will soon
recover.
We are sorry to learn that Mr.. EN-
NETT Burke is on the sick list.
Misses Louisa Nelson and Ida Eggle-
ston were in the city on visit from
their schools last week.
We learn that marriages will be nu-
merOus this month, We know of sew
eral already, but there are more TO
come.
1.-The wicked fieeth when no one pur-
sueth." WINNER is dead.
The following is what some OF the
boys think about this Xmas:
A-This is once in four Christmases
hat the girls have their full rights,
nd think they should be allowed to
Itand up for them liKe a man.
C--I think that each boy should re-
serve the same right this time as here
tofore. Ny girl always equals the oc-
casion.
Ed always favor the girls, but give
them a trial this time
G-I don't think a girl can be boy
even If she tries so continue the good
old way.
P-Well, any old way will do. ]
shall do my part.
This is a question I could not de-
eide myself, but Magno, tell Us who
! should be foremost in making presents
d this christmas.
Magno- Gentlemen, all of your opin-
ions are good as for our part. we
don't believe an depriviDg the girls OF
any just privilege. Speak girls, what
say you ?
The boys had a hard time visiting OF
last Sunday, but they stormed it like
men.
If she only knew how many tears
she has caused him to shed since lasi
Sunday night she certainly would. re
tract her words.
That his girl was in bed last Sunda,
night when he called was no joke
We are informed that Mr. s s knew
something about that hat tnat was lef
at a young lady's house not long since
Don't you know he is glad that hi
girl will spend Xmas holidays in tn
city.
We learned that the Nine LIS Club
met last week. Remember, we ar
not a member.
Christmas is 10 days off. Didn't yor
know it
The following are two of the com
mandments ten,
Which wives now make for marrie
men:-
Thou shalt not flirt, but must allo,
Thy wife such freedom, anyhow.
10 Thou shalt get up when baby cries
And try the baby to tranquilize.
These my commandments from da
to day
Implicitly thou shalt obey.
The above ends the Wife's Ten Com
mandments. Husbands, how do lik
them.
M.o,so TTx.-
