There is a Cleburn girl who is SO bashful it is said she cannot see a sleeping car without blush ing.-Cleburn Chronicle.
 It is presumed that she would faint at the sight of undressed lumber.-Dallas Times Herald.
 Or worse still. She might go into mysteries over her bedstead legs and want to drape them with lingerie.-San Antonio Light.
 She'd surely lock herself in her room and pull down the shades if she wanted to change her mind.-t)range Tribune.
 No doubt she is a first cousin to the Prior Creek girl who will not look at a tree in the winter for fear she would see a naked limb.-PryoI Creek Clipper.
 She must be a twin sister to the girl who will not express an opinion, fearing that she will unbosom her mind -Tahlequah Herald.
