fish stories this one has been started
on the rounds:
"a large pack of wolves was dis
covered in the east part of La Porte

search of the ginseng root. A dismal
swamp surrounds the woods in which
the wolves were discovered and it was
with great difficulty that the men es-

New York Central is very good and if
one wants to wait can make at least

Eleven North Judson business men

chants are wise.
