HOW BOB TAYLOR DID 1T.

In his earlier days Bob Taylor, Bob
Burrow, Charlie ST. John and Cy Lyle
formed newspaper syndicate between
themselves and started the johnson
City Comet They ran patent outside
and had to take their half-printed pa
per out of the express office every week.
The bloated express company requir.
ed them to pay for it when they got it,
and one week, after searching the con-
joint breeches pockets of the outfit,
they could not frighten up the neces.
sary four dollars. Time pressed, pub
lication day was at hand and Bob
Taylor was of telling yarns. Charlie
hunted the town until he found him
on a street corner right in the middle
of yarn. The firm had no secrets from
the world and Charlie interrupted Bob
to tell him their sorrowful situation
and demanded to know what in the
helenkeller they were going TO do
about it.
40, go on, Charlie" exclaimed Bob,
without losing motion in telling his
yarn. "Skip q week. Nobody'll
miss it,.
"But that will ruin us, Bobn
"Ruin nothin'," replied Bob. "No-
body'l know we skipped. Every fell
low'lI think his copy miscarried in

They skipped week and nobody
found it out.
