eth scads and ducats like hay bal

rocks and dough it lappeth up like a
house afire. When the devil-wagon
champeth and snorteth, flee to the
mountains Of the Hepsidam and crawl
in. hole, or the old boy will get you
and carry you to the poor house. Man
goeth forth in the morning cnusgms
and shaking with pride; halo OF
blue smoke encircleth him sa a
wreath; he patteth his belly with
pride and saith, behold, l am a six

so is deceived thereby should soak
his noodle in lye. Vessels of wrath
fitted unto destruction are the devil
carts that eat mans time and sap

tia club as a club. The individual
members of the club personally ap-
preciate the ability and qualifications
of the ladies to fill creditably and
with honor any office or position,
