Texans to kill and eat them"
Something new in the war against
the mail-order houses is suggested by
the Douglass Tribune, a. follows:
Douglass should hold catalogue
burning day. in which the people
should offer a bounty for every mail
order catalogue brought to the city
and thrown on the sacrificial altar or
fire. It wouldn't hurt to hold an all
day celebration in connection with
such an event

so himself Miss Cliff was the first one
to take it in hand. AS she had never
been in one before, the result was a
foregone conclusion. By the greatest
