A remedy that will cure a splitting headache

The Editor's Lament
The following is from a lead-
ing newspaper out in North
Dakota: “It is reported that
one of the fastidious ladies in a
neighborhood town kneads bread
with her gloves on. This inci-
dent may be somewhat peculiar,
but there are others. The editor
of this paper needs bread with
his shoes on. He needs bread
with his shirt on. He al80 needs
bread with his pants on, and,
unless some of the delinquent
subscribers to this “Old Rag of
Freedom” pay up before long, he
will need bread without a blamed
thiifg on—and this country is no
Garden of Eden in the winter-
tittle. ”
Furnished rooms to rent nea

venient, yet removed far enough
to avoid the noise,

Lee Campbell has just return-
ed from Port Lavaca where
he spent a pleasant outing and
he has some interesting “fish
stories” to tell his friends, He
brought back with him the saw
or upper bill of two sawfish one
of which is nearly three feet
long, also the tail of a fly-
ing fish about the same length.
He also tells us about catching a
man eating shark which weigh-
ed 300 pounds.
