Editor Wing of the Southern Ulster tN. ' perpetrates the following:
 Life is made up of little things, one breath less, then comes the funeral. A good dog is worth more than you can get for it.
 Cats isn't worth mach only for dogs to run after and have little fun.
 Some men can attend law suit better than a wood pile.
 Men of correct minds are scsrcer than saw mills with no power.
 Shy of man who claims to be a Christian and never pays his debts.
 This is tough world no one will ever get out of 1t alive.
 Some men never sings only when they are in a picnic wagon.
 Wooden overoosts never get out of fashion.
 Many are called and some is not missed.
 Men ain't all alike in many things. If you want to attach yourself to something substantial, marry fat woman.
 The first time the boy was shown the little twins, he sad, mamma IS always after bargains.
 A big man when he is sick can groan more, because he is large.
 A womau's idea of a good time makes a man smile.
 When horse dies you will hear some big sums of money been offered for him.
 Some things is mighty costly.
