There, there, there, sit down again, every one of you. The man who carried a potato in his pocket eleven years to cure the rheumatism, he may sit down, And the man who has swathed himself in a liver pad to ameliorate the pangs of bun- ions, he may sit down. Sit down, the man who is trying to trade his stock in the Washing- ton monument for a house and lot.— Hawkeye, Tue diminutive hen fruitseen in market is another evidence that the egg size law is not en- forced.—Kome Sentinel, Wasu a baby up clean and dress him up real pretty, and he will resist all advances with a most superlative crossness; "epuion beoape soy 3 39~0 2250 ues wopsouy * ONvid ALLVAG uy, sour) poomovoy UDI YIUIUR EGOS ‘ON eay “GNVUO AUVAOS oa ry ‘coor 4940 ‘pox: "@9%$ KINO onvid 000'IS oF ‘Saeenaes Soper) amBsue ts peep stoner was Mo ease ‘oum) ovo 42 pasopuo exe evedug 40 souys aLour Ta porensted 2 guscmaneey a7 Sunny, sonz0 Lao fed sory red wag Zoom pu fie pure fore sup waxiwy?
