You feel it is going to rain. Per-

Somebody is talking about you

You are going some place-your

Sometimes you just feel something
is going to happen without the fore
warning. Through some pecBliar in
stinct you know some one is coming,
or something is going 70 happen. You
are as sure OF it as If you had had

great many people who don't know

they are not supposed to take such

lie doesn't pay for the work the tailor
holds the garments. Tailors have no
right to do that; the trousers belong

promote harmony the state by refusing to start
test for the governorship
Though the margin Of votes is small enough that theEe
might be hope of reversing the election result by
means of contest Mr. Golfer has wisely turned deaf
ear to the of of his supporters and in
very manly way has congratulated Mr. Campbell upon his
election.
It will be remembered that the contest which caused
the unseatng Of Gov Campbell in favor of Gov Hunt cost
the taxpayers Of the state thousands of dollars More
over it had its effect later the election of supreme

feeling then engendered just being wiped out partly
through decision of M Golfer not to repeat the

ably will he will find his popularity in wise diminished
