after that we are not yet we'll posted
on, but we all know that there is some-
thing at Willmar which attracts Aug

But alas, not so. We might have
known that in all great tragedies like
this there is always woman along.
This gentleman had heard that one OF
our fairy damsels detested men who
plet the weed generally known as whis1

a modern Samson, he sacrificed his
