are ladies and young boys who read
this home paper. Besides the old
man had put in several years in
South America and spoke Spanish

command of dynamic English ad-
verbs that would have made pirate
hail him as a long-lost brother, and
good old Noah Webster put several
pages of appendix in the next edition
of the unabridged.
Suffice 1t, that | got the old man
home. l put about three-fingers-in-
a-bucket of brandy into him, fed
him up, and he felt better. He even
got up a smile when his cigar got to
burning. Then, incidentally, l mem
toned the wood again. He took his
cigar from his mouth, glared at me
a moment, and then, in a voice of
concentrated wrath, not loud, but
deep, he said: "Johny, If that mig
ger, with his bunch of curios, comes
across the bridge shoot him on the

son of Ham anywhere. Don't let the

He said other things. Lots of 'em.

bovines about dark. There was on

science is tender. and I won't lie
