after the New Yr has came we
spose they could go back to the

ilanamus & penoorius according to

Hank in a Bad Fix

Hank Dewberry, one of our most
goodfornothing citizens has been suffer-
ing from what he calls plumbago for
some time past. Hank went to Doc
Livermore for it. Doc told him to try
a capsicum plaster. Hank went to the
co. seat after capsicum plaster and
stuck it on his back. Hank says after
it had been on about an hour it burnt
like wild fire and he tried to pull it
often his back but it stuck SO tite that
it nearly made him boiler out with pain
every time he give a yank on it, SO he
had to get his wife to pull it off of him,
being as he didn't have the moral cour-
age to do it. Hank says that where the
plaster was on his back is all blistered
and that he has learnt since he put that
plaster on that it wasn't nothing but
plaster made OF red pepper with glue on
one side to make it stick. Hank said
Doc Livermo-e better keep outen his
way hereafter if he values his life very
much Hank says his plumbago is
worse than it was before he tried the
plaster.
