too boisterous.
Mary replied, "You won't let me
play with her because she is too boy
strous and I won't play with Tommy
because he is a sissy-he is too girl
strous."

some preaching, with his comrades in
arms as the congregation.
Private G of the same regiment

sermons, but possesses a sense of
humor. The two were in a group

who held ministerial posts got cold
feet recently and resigned" Cold feet |

Cheap and Good.

Some of the best foods are the
cheapest. There are carrots, satisfy,
parsnips, lettuce and such stuff. They
have not advanced in price very much,
and they are the best food that grows,
says the Columbus CO.. State Journal.
Carrots have the rarest combination
of food qualities Of anything that
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1918-01-10

grows. It is so healthful that 1T is
said a steady diet of it will cure many
distempers. Parsnips are cheap, good,
wholesome. Anybody who doesn't
like the taste of parsnip has his
palate put in wrong. Lettuce is cheap
and lettuce sandwich is royal food.
Anyone who starves while these things
are on the market, to be bought for
few cents, has not much of claim
on life. There is more health in them
than in porterhouse steak or oyster
cocktails. Some people affect to
think they are lOw-brow food, but
