week.
Messers. Reimer and Sehugart In
form us that they are greatly improv.
ed in health since taking Ice Tea
Baths at the Salina Fair.
Tom Harper now sports a fine new
team of high steppsrs. No use of
any old one horse shay from Heizer
trying to cut any ice on Tommy's
territory.
Ben Speck is afraid of being classed
with the sPinheads" and is to move
his headquarters. That's right, Ben
watch your environments and as
sociates.
School opened here Monday under
Mr.. Baty's tutorship and now the
swish of the hickory and the plaintive
wall of the wayward hid will resound
hither and whittier.
Cbas. Pizinger the cornetist leaves

future before him.
Elmer Sharp left for Pueblo Sun
day evening, where he has been en-

Jas. Eggersweisner is the name of
our new hotel proprietor. He is
surely a winner after having carried
a name like that around 80 long.
Success Mr. Eggersweisner.
Butcher Balcarek says we are in
error in reporting him as going on
the farm. He informs us that it is q
difficult matter for him to even sit on
the fence and talk over the wireless
phone to his fnancee, much less
think of winning a home there.
A Galatia correspondent asks the
very impertinent question: '.Have
you seen the Balloon?" Well now we
knew those railroadless mortals up
there would be "seein' things" as soon
as the "Peruna" shipme nts got to be
more numerous to that point
Judging from the actions of one of
our young business men We surmise

new cottage are being prepared and
the aforesaid young man feels and
acts like he was smitten with that
disease which poets rave about and
which old Noah Webster calls Love.
Residents of Galatia are complains
ing that the fall and winter edition

ers and sees balloons, not mentioning
the amount of Peruna consumed, per
capita.
One of our young lady friends
caught US away from "home and
mother" the other morning and pro-
ceeded to give U.S. good calling down.
She gave no reason for her procedure,
but we suppose she must be the one
that lost the bet on the Great Bend
Indian ball game, and was very much
upset that we gave her bad judge-
ment away. Well now "deary" just
pay up and we will go way back and
sit down very quietly. You will
find Art a very good fellow to deal
with.
