A friend, who is an observing citi-

about the banks, while agreeing with
the statement, is of the opinion that
we ought to "go one better" and say
that our banks are the best friends
the community has, straining them

poor impecunious fellows have to get
our last SO bill changed up into
quarters, dimes and nickels so as to
make it go as far as possible. We
should, too, deposit all our surplus
cash with the banks, so that they can
get use of all but SIS of our 500
while on deposit; hence they are al
ways accommodating about giving US
small change, etc.

If you have never seen the freak
of a three-legged chicken, Pleasant
Boyd has one to show you. Pleas. is a
well known colored ''man about
town" and his chicken bears the pecu-
liarity of having a smaller leg,
