He Turned The Tables.

Someone was having n party out in
the country near Otis. There was
town girl, who was visiting in the COM
munity, attending the party.
All the boys wanted hurry-up in
PRODUCTION; and one in particular was
very anxious. But the others managed
to keep him out until she promised the
other boys that she would let this par
ticular gentleman down hard.
Accordingly he was introduced and the
conversation ran pleasantly. Slowly
and skillfully she drew him out, and he
rendered her his choicest compliments,
especially on looks.
The other boys had nudged up as
close as possible to hear him drop.
Thank you so much," she replied,
"but I'm really sorry can't say the
same about you" Then she leaned
back with the air Of conqueror, while
the boys nudged each other and winked

wants a muf, Susy needs a petticoat
and lot of other stuff. Johnnie needs
a sweater, and Billie needs overshoes.
the old man needs some money but this
is never news. The COW she needs al
falfa and the horse he needs some corn,
the kitchen door needs iixin' we wish
