The longest way home is the shortest way
to a family row.
You can't always tell how much a girl
wants you to kiss her by the way she OBJ
jects to it.
Men talk about spending money in a
barroom, but throwing it away when they
put it in a church plate.
1t is always more than likely that a wom-
an who doesn't want TO have children is
mixed up in some business she ought not
to be.
When a man gets up in the night and

CICLISTAS C A S

Certo es que todo ell mundo tiene
derecho a hacer uso del sport que mas
lie agrade; pero tambien es cierto que
el p1blico tiene derecho 4 transitar Ii
bremente por las GALES sin que sea
atropellado por los appendices del
sport dicho.
Los que tengan deseos de aprender
q correr en- bicicleta, bien pueden irse
4 Puerta de TERRA, donde no moles-
taran q nadie mas que 4 los carros y
las mulas Y con ellos Sc las vean; pero
este de correr por las GALES dando val
yenes, es altamente impropio.
Varias personas estuyieron anoche
q punto de ser atropalladas por dos
ciclistas en- ciernes.
Yea ESQ la policia y lame al orden 4
los futuros ciclistas.
