"Macks tn ia-ad that knows tn etiket
iY these occasions. tbs not his way to
r-race horres to tn cimitery. He does
things in style. TIL wake is held in
Pahr's, where life Is wan conIinyul r-round
iv pleasure. Tn guests firm this side
goes over with their families, an tn ray

'Theyse lashins an lashins to drink
IT'S ixpinsive, but they don't wake Spain
in porther or ale, Hinnissy. They wake
him on a dhrink that there has not been
a bottle iv in this wa-ard since tn In
dams was here.
AN afther breakfast they set ar-round
an smoke their good tin-cint seegars, an
thin it's off to tn Mullin Rouge, which is
a kind iv theaytre, or tn cave iv TIL

Roo Royal CHATS like Clark sthreeO an

soph, iv Oklahoma, done in tn way iv

tween here an tn Platte river think a
burnin' lie thrain is goin' through tn
