A Canadian editor, being asked il
he had ever seen a bald-headed WON.
an, replied: "No; we never did. Nor
have we ever seen a woman Waiting
around town in her shirt sleeves, with
a cigar between her teeth. We have
never seen a woman 60 fishing with
a bottle in her hip pocket, sit on the
damp ground all day, and then go
home drunk at night. Nor have we
ever seen woman yank off her coat
and swear she could lick any imam in
town. God bless herl She amt built
that way."-Ex.
1t seems as though some of the boys
who belong to the State Malta Com
pany have the wrong idea, in regard
to whether thay shall drill only when
they desire so to do-so on last Satur-
day young men belonging to the
company refused to drill. The cap
tain then got out warrant for him,
and the matter was settled by a COM
promise. The first duty a soldier
should learn is that he should obey.
If he does not do so willingly he can
be made to do so. Keep this in mind
boys, and rest assured you shall re-
cieve kind and courteous treatment
from your officers.
