Sleep free from mosquitoes-a day of
pleasure-Night settles DOWN Monday
and at Ponce De Leon. We have struck
up with another friend who is somewhat
inclined to be b bilious. Jew emery,
from the car just in front of us-His chin
struggles up as it begging kisses fro m
his n"se-His nose stoops downward as
if to concur in its request.-At the step,
to decend to TINS realm of fun and frohc,
my friend looks up-he hears the sore oh
of tbs merry go roud and shrieks. Oh
My God--lhe whole world is on fire
lemme (hic) git out How much insure
ancs ask the Jew, but my bibulous friend
heard no.! He vas already on his way
back to town where perhaps he Gained
his fears in a way we'll Known to himself
The circle swing Only ten cents-A di-
me-A dime-A bigger ten cents worth
than you get for anything else on earth
except perhaps the loop the loop. and
life is too short at best without the loop
The loop. The wheels start, the swing
turns, we sail around, we fly out over the
paling, over the telephone poles will
we strike the side of the casino The night
runs together and blend in conflagrat-
ion of blazing colors. We grasp the seat
and murmer. Now lay me to sleep as sol
emmy as we can, while train load OF
thoughts of our past rises before III and
present seems bound to be wrecked on the
tops Of the houses, but pleasures all fade
and some horrors have an end, aud
as we step off we murmer our thanks to a
Gracious Providence that we are alive,
The toboggan slide and the old gent who
shares our 5. at come into our thoughts
as a thing that once was may possibly be
again, but we doubt il darn sight. Tia;
car leaped and fel-we were too full fol
utterance and we hadent had a single one
either. The old gent shrleked Oh -
tord save me right now - Right now
t'wont do bit of good two secons later
come on oh Lord" We didn't faint how
evet and found ourselves at the skating
rink-Have you ever felt the heavens anC
the rock and the woods and the mou nj
aims and the hills fall on you. Have YOU
gathered together your miscellaneous leg
into a tangled pile Ill three seconds anC
spent the next half hour in trying to picl
out the mixtures in your anatomy HAY,
you flown as bird into the arms of som'
pretty girl with corn silk hair and haze
eyes and puff bosom shirt waist tina
would not hurt the eyes OF the mos
delicate, and then taken the balance o
the night trying to explain to her biz
brother that it was MT intentiOnal' Have
on never seen the stars fall and the heav
ems roll up like scroll, the sea smite upot
the sea across the heavihg bosom OF t hi
and, and the floor flee downwaIds Z
thousand yards before you can catch it t.
repose upon its bosom7 If you want the
sensation go to the skating r nix. We've
been thar. But we spend our time nov
patching up bruises with arnica salve
and when W. go to Ponce De Leon We
look at the pictures III the mntascopes ane
listen to the band while We drink sods
water witha great big stick in it,
Verify, verify say unto you that I'M
less you have gilt edge contract with two
good securities that you may be borr
again and start over fresh, don't try tc
skate, even unto the thoasandth part o.
a hairs breadth, for the end thereof is lin
iment and the way of the skater is hard
Seloh.
