out to find that the something" was
an old tin pail.
He had scarcely utterd the words
when an Early Rose potato whizzed
by his ear and struck the fence with
a bang, and it was followed by Flori-
da cabbage stalk, which emitted
moaning sound as it grazed the top of
his head. The cat realized that she
wasn't in it and took skip, but Mr..
Bowser wasn't to be bluffed.

around and failed to locate any one.

An old corset from an ask barrel
came sailing his way like a vulture of

there was missiles which he believed

he coula do was to jump up and down
and demand that the hidden foes stand
forth and be slaughtered. He thought
he caught sight of some one on the al
lev fence, and he made a wild charge,
but he had no sooner reached it than
the heavens rained tin cans, bottles,
old hats and shoes. and he was COM
PEELED to turn and flee for his life. Mrs
Bowser came down stairs TO find him
in the sitting room, white faced, big
eyed and painting, and after look at
him she said
Have you got hardened up for the

on her. Don't you suppose know

terloper was a licked feline and was
heard scrambling over a fence three
yards below.
1t was evident that the cure had a
few drawbacks, but after cussing soft
ly to himself for a minute the patient
climbed back into his hammock and
tried to make himself believe that he
already felt better. He shut his eyes
tightly, determined to sleep, and the
premonitory tingle of a second sneeze
was being family felt when there was
a yelp and a hiss, and the cat went up
the fence and over it like a flash, and
a dog was left whining and growing
within ten feet of the hammock. The
canine had crept under the alley fence
and the Bowser cat hadn't waited to
ask any questions.
by thunder, but can't man find
five minutes peace in his own back
yard?" shouted Mr.. Bowser as he rolled
out and looked for a clothes prop as
a weapon of offense.
He ran that dog three times across
the yard before the animal could find
the hole he came in at and get out
again, and when he returned to the
hammock the romance of the night
was gone. If he hadn't caught sight
of Mrs. Bowser peeping from one OF
the back windows, he might have de-
cided to call things off until the next
night. That settled matters, however.
He dropped into the hammock and
huddled himself up, and the cat came
back and sat on the fence and looked

a stranger to this locality, tried TO get

bore bullet into his leg We could
have bored it into his head or body as

Our esteemed contemporary is out

unknown and would-be assassin on

to be shot down when be fred and

met our esteemed as we were going
home from a soiree and he wag going
home from a poker room. and just for
fun we yelled al him. He jumped six
feet and struck a run, and every BILL

There was no shooting, and we didn't
even gobble the hat he left behind.

take his life makes us laugh.

By George, but l wonder if there is an
other such aggravating woman on the
face of the earth!"
Mrs. Bowser had nothing more to
say. Mr.. Bowser kicked things out of
his way as he walked, and the cat rub
bed against leg of the piano and saw
fun ahead. Half an hour later the
hammock was slung between two of
the clothesline posts. 1t was a fairly
dark evening, and Mr.. Bowser con-
graduated himself that none of the
neighbors had got on to his little
scheme. AT 10 o'clock he was ready to
try the cure. He tried to drag Mrs.
Bowser into an argument about it, but
she kept clear and went up stairs as
he started out. Bareheaded and with
coat and vest off, he fell into the ham,
mock with grunt of satisfaction and
began counting the stars in the vault

dulged in sneeze which set the ham

neighbours cat appeared above the
fence. For few brief seconds the
Bowser cat and the interloper exchang-
ed glances of hate. distrust and def
ance, and then they colllded on top of
the fence.

Soon after the Bowsers had finished
dinner the other evening, package
arrived at the basement door, and as
the girl brought it up to the family

said:

Mrs. Bowser, want you to talk sensl-

that l have got to harden myself up

terrible risk of physical collapse with
the advent of the Irst hot wave?"
mo, didn't know it. thought
you were in splendid health. Only last
night heard you telling Brown
'Never mind what l told Brown. A

yet not like to have people talking
about it and sympathizing. l may
look we'll and have a good appetite,
but the fact remains that puff would
blow out the flame of life. have
kept this fact from you for weeks and
weeks, but l feel that you ought to
know It,"
"And that hammock is going to save
you from being pulled out?" she asked
as the family cat came out from under
the piano to take hand in the game.
Il hope and trust it is. Acting I'M
der the advice of one of the best doc
tors in town, I am going to try and
harden myself up before the hot
weather arrives. l shall put that ham

"And that will harden you?"
"And I shall pass the night in the

''Well, when you have a sore throat,

rheumatism from head to heel, per-
herhaps you'll keep on coddling," she
ancwered. ANY doctor who told you
such stuff for truth is an idiot"

she quietly replied. "If the doctor

course it will. Don't put the blame off
on me, however"

you?"

is out with posse, but the fellow
has probably made good his escape.

An individual named Harrison Cox.
of Lone Jack, made us an hours extra
trouble the other day. He had cause
to believe that The Kicker had libeled
him, and instead of paying us a call
with gun in either hand and settling
the matter in five minutes he sneaked
into town and employed a lawyer to
bring suit for $4,000. This Obliged us
TO call on the lawyer and round him
up into a corner of his Office and ask
him what he was going to do about it,
and it took him half an hour more TO
withdraw the suit and collect the
costs of Cox. We occasionally libel
folks, as our aim is to keep at the top,
but we always figure that a man who
is man will come bustling in and
take a snap shot at us If things hurt
his feelings. Mr. Cox displayed very
poor judgment

The report that Judge Bateman was
held UP the other day while returning
from Lone Jack turns out to be true
The robber had two guns and yell,
and his honor didn't stop to argue le-
gal points before throwing up his
hands. He was relieved OF ST and a
watch. but before being allowed to
proceed the man with the guns made
him repeat the Lords prayer and sing
a song. The Judge feels that he has
lost any amount of dignity by the
transaction, as he couldn't remember
more than half the prayer, and the
man was mean enough to tell him
that he sang like a crow. The sheriff

The little affair in the common coun-
Gil room Thursday evening does not
deserve the dignity certain people
seem bound to give it. 1t all came
about through a mistake. Alderman
Jackson had a motion before the body
when Alderman Taber attempted TO
introduce a resolution. They clashed,
and each one drew his gun, but the
efficient city clerk produced Cushman's
tactics and soon settled the case. While
all our aldermen are justly Jealous Of
their rights and privileges, they love
each other like brothers and would
not shoot except as last resort.
Such little ripples are not worth gos-
sip.

nesday afternoon was our first chance
for riding out TO his ranch. He was
prepared for us. We got behind a
rock and fired p shots into his house
while he blazed away at us with about
as many, but things finally got so not
for him that he surrendered and came
to time. When a name drops off our
subscription books we want to know
the why of it, and if the man lives
within so miles Of US we generally
manage to shoot him back on again.
