A NEwrowN AuToMoBILE

Editor of the Farmer, Sir:
 A rurnor has been current to the effect that Levi c. Morris is the latest victim of the automobile fever, but ly not invest in a machine until he has learned to handle the wheel. Therein lies the wisdom of the genial Levi, for his numerous warm auto friends are ever glad of his enter taining company and when the "Mor- out doubt pass along with quiet dig nifty without turning the figure eight in the middle of the street to the danger and anxiety of pedestrians. Few can boast of such good friends who wilt give the pleasure of an auto as we'll. Thus through the kindness of Wm. A. Leonard emanates the re- port Of a fine new touring car with the Morris self-stopping device and fence eradicator of which a New Mill ford poet has written and to which much space has been given in the columns of the "Newtown Bee.''
 There's many slip twixt the hand and the wheel" And so it happened. MT. Morris says he has had only one accident and all it cost him was 15 cents. But! Honest, good natured Levi has been guilty in the past by furnishing material and facts of poet raving situations, extensive bills of fare for large capacities, for the columns of the local paper, etc. And it now develops that the gentleman whose appetite was appeased by the extraordinary menu on board the steamer ''Ticnesta'' over the Great Lakes last summer and who was later heard singing with touching expres- sion the following words to that old p1aintive melody:
 My breakfast lies over the ocean,
 My dinner lies over the sea,
 My supper is down in Lake Michigan
 Oh! Bring back some dry land to
 (Barber.)
 Has stronger pull with the New town Bee' in fact the genial and obliging editor has. been seen with his arms around the Lake Michigan man. Wherein the affinity lies, is a question unless it is in the editor own well known expression, '1 do like the ladies'" and thus they start ed in to Nettle-town after the cul- prit. If the old adage, "He laughs best who laughs last holds good, they will have to try again, for Nor ris char-l-ty is on his NettIe-ton and he apparently enjoys the joke as much as anyone.
 A FRIEND OF LEWIS.
