Some odd Names.

The most suggestive and Inviting
name | saw was that of druggist
In North Dakota. 1t was U. K. Wei
come. his first name being Urias.
Across the street was another man
with a funny name. He bore the
euphonlous cognomen John Stone
pounder. In the next town found a
man who was so fat that the name OF
Abraham Crumpacker seemed espe-
ciallv fitting. But there was woman
In the town who went him one better.
Her name was Emily Freshbread.
In the next town l got so interested
in queer names that soon heard OF
a speedy individual called Sarah Deer
hoof. In that same town there is a
man named Henry Bookstruck. Ever
after that was on the lookout On the
train met David Newsalt and Mile
Newloye. The man with the most
warlike name ran against was Abra-
ham Saltpeter In one town | found
q man who had very poetic name
1t was Seabright Sunbloom. But the
last name | struck finished me. 1t
seemed like direct command to cease
nv sacrilegious monkeying with peo-
ple's names. l took it as warning
and quit. A. Quickinish. And what
do you suppose his partners name
was? 1t was W. K. Goforth.-St. Paul
