Ed. HERALD "A case of moral degeneraey
has caused sensation in certain circles in
town. and it looked earlier in the week as if
the punishment deserved would be meted out
to the guilty man. A vile indignity offered
to little girl of eleven years by prominent
citizen justly aroused the wrath of the
parents and also recalled the fact that this
same man has been guilty Of the same foul
ness before, but has heretofore been able to
cover it up. 1t is not likely, however, that
this case can be hushed up so easily, although
strenuous efforts are being made to do 50.

NH-NYoUn PURSE sFULLoF MONEY

"? IN YOUh PURSE is FULL OF MONEY.
When your purse is full of money
And your heart Is FREQ from care,
A / the world seems bright and sunny,
Beuuty blossoms everyv here.
People oficn stop to greet you
and admire all your styles
All seem very glad to meet you
When Dame Fortune on you smiles.
When your purse is full of money,
You can taste all kinds Of honey,
But without It you must drink lifo's bitter gall.
While you're rich your friends are many;
When you re poor, you've scarcely any,
All forget you when misfortunes on you fall.
When your purse is full of money.
You are perfect to a dot,
And your Jokes are always funny
Whether they have points or not,
But when hardships ovcrtalJe you
Then your Joy in sadness browns,
For your friends will soon forsake you
When Dame Fortune on you frowns.
