John Reminds Him.

HEBRON, Dec. IA, 1904.
In the Democrat of Dec. 9th was
somewhat interested in Johns letter.
He tells what he thinks, and handles
Paul in way that is enough to confuse
a Democrat. He makes me think OF
the Rev. Timothy TosspOt, who lived in
Illinois. He went down to New Orleans
to preach. Ee said he thought he had
come down there to preach the Gospel,
"but," said he, "before l commence
want you to distinctly understand that
the Apostle Paul and differ in several
important points"
Nv last weeks communication did not
get thawed out in time to appear in
Dec. 9th paper, so for that reason l
shall extend the time to receive birth
day presents until the night before
Christmas.
There are number of English gentle
men hanging around this neighborhood
