Someone blowed so lard on the blow

one day as to bust it, at the same time
blowing about 500 pennies out of 1t.
There was no honest man about when the

to know who the big blow head can be.

that the solemnity of a revival meeting
in that place was disturbed by local
printer, who printed a small card. which
was used in the service, and which read
"You must be saved why not TO night"
so as to read "You must by shaved why
not tonight"

the late President, William Mckinley.
