what he is writing about, says: "If the
country editor were to snap at al the in
ducements held out he would soon be

he published half the items sent him he
would be in Jail one-half the time and in
the hospital the other half"

brighter as time rolls on. May its next
half hundred years be even pleasantier
aud more prosperous than the past have
been.

spud while at work in the bark woods

set in and his physician had little hope
of saying the young mans life at last ac-
