by Editor John Mitchell, one of her

On Tuesday morning, the District
Schools were closed. We are sorry to
say there were quite q number OF un-

We have quite a number on our
sick list; yet we are glad to say that
some are improving.

first marriage for this month took
place on the 3rd on Leigh street; but
we beg to state here that the first was

The Ice-cream saloon keepers say
they know it is hot from the amount OF
cream they are selling.
Say John, don't you know my girl
demonstrated more love towards me
last night than she has for the last six
months? Well, you shouldn't notice
th at for it's hot now, and that may be
ice-cream love.
Boys, don't stroll in the direction of
the ice-cream saloon unless you have
ice-cream mOneY.
Girls, when you love q young man,
be sure it's pure. Remember that
love doth seldom suffer itself to be
confined by other matches than those
of itsown making.
Women have, in general, but one OBJ
ject, which is their beauty, and no
hattery is too gross for them. This is
plainly demonstrated in their use of
paints and powder and their hair
Strengthening processes.
