Times Union Philosopher.
To answer him back with;
Here's something for you:
Never, no never!
AS long as you chew!"
The candidate is full of vim.
But wait till they get through with
him!
The staying powers Of some people
are simply appalling.
Going away for weekend is fire.
Quently a weak end.
Loves young dream is difficult to
match with the movie romances.
Looking up does not always mean
that you are looking up to anybody.
Some people forget so easily 1t is a
pity that they do not make specially
OF it.

of the people who insist on wearing
them.

Funny how very disagreeable others

high prices, it has had plenty of change
to spend around.

1t is safe to bet that when the women
throw their hats in the ring, they will

The Times Union intimates that one
reason Gov. Edwards has such an aw-
full cold is because he is standing on
a wet platform.
Lots of scrub palmetto about here
numbering up the earth which might
just as well, and better, be going
through a paper mill.
The South Florida papers are pre-
dieting a rise in the price Of sugar to

If you kept check on every check
you make out. you would soon find
your expenses decrease, says an ex-

Some mornings when we read the
paper we are so amazed at our spelling
that we feel just like offering Mr.. Web
ster an apology. But when we read
the other state papers we chirk up, a

Says the Wauchula Advocate: sThis
week print paper, such as The Advo-
cate is printed on, was selling at $12.50
per hundred-when you can get it. For
years we purchased better paper for
$2.40 hundred. And everything which
goes to make up a newspaper has taken
just about such a raise. Under these
circumstances, no one should expect
to receive two or three bills for their
subscription before paying it. It's a
lucky newspaper which weathers the
storms of the next few months"

AN OLD GARDENER.
He has always wise and knowing air:
For him there is no mystery in the
mold,
Where seeds put on the shimmering
things they wear
And come to birth in yellow, green
and gold.
