mounting andrpoising itself at sucl
a high degree that lit has caused
thefthoughts 'of your humble Cor
respondent to become liquifed, anc
as they are very thin at their best
and as there has been so much
caloric in the atmosphere for some
time past it has caused my
thoughts to run wild: could not
get them..to CONCEAL long enough al
any one, time to compose anything
but have backed my ears and
gone at. it, once more guess my
proboscis must have, helped me

Hon. E. j. Bowers called at the
sanctum of your Correspondent on
Saturday, foundT him all O. K!
Mr.. Editor let me whisper some
thing to you. Bowers looked like a
man that needed a barber, but
have just figured it out in my mind
that one E. NJ. BARBER, has not
as yet become an adept able to clip
the honor from Bowers in the ap.
preaching Election. | would not
like Bowers to know what l have
said, but Mr. Editor sink or swim
| believe / am with Bowers.
The physical Anatomy of Hon.
E. w. Breland was. thrust into my
sanctum Saturday. Brehnd look

est he has. He doe ) not know that
the panic has been on, call again

Hon. D. E. Breland was driving
ia spirited Equine through the
streets of the village the. past week ;
guess. as usual giving some one
trouble or free ride. / am might
y glad it was not me, as | have
not had. the pleasure of seeing the
Hon. gentleman for sometime past.
| noticed that he had lost some
thing, it was the hair heF wore on
his upper lip.
The Hon. W. C. Roberts'is often
observed entering the City meat
market these humid days, guess he
gets a shake as they dispense the
the same tn re. If | was his wife

trouble. Il would just give good
shake at home. H..
Mr.. Editor do you like milk
shake, l do not like it for the sim
pie reason | cannot shake the price
out of my old Jeans.
The president of the meat market
can shake them up to date, so the
boys tell me.
Smith, the Mercantile Co. high
flyer, Judging from appearances, is
trying to be quite lady's man, he
can be:frequently heard humming
en- the streets the ballad under
The shade of the the old apple

get some young lady to sit with
him Under the shade Of the old ap-
pie tree, but / have not noticed
one as yet doing so, suppose he will
try another tune. =:

Mr.. Editor | just bet you that
Joe Baughdrill was in attendance
at the Picnic on Saturday at Wash
ington G.. C. If he was not there

matter with him, because it is the
