Prices may now begin to tumble, And people will cease to grumble; We will wait a while at any rate, Until things come down to a normal state. Last time I heard from Uncle Jake, His eyes did pain and his head did ache, I hope he has improved in every way, And ascend to heaven on Judgment Day. Ye Gods! See by er solicited press dispatch in ther Gobbler's Knob Bugle, that them law makers at Ernapolis put er kink in ther coat tails of them dry critters .an' from all indercations, includin' ther weather vane, on the general store yer, Maryland won't be such er dry place as ther desert er Sarah after all. Them people what's contended ter ride on er camel an' go er couple dozen days without er drink, ain't in er clasfe with yer Uncle Jake, why ever since prohibition's been ther seven days' wonder, yer Uncle Jake's drunk 'nuff water ter float er battle ship, not ter say nothin' 'bout ther rust what's on his insides.

Bowen, what's knight o' ther broom an' boss er ther waste basket at ther Jeff office, is er regular visitor out there. Reckon Ed's picked out one o' them peaches what articulates one o' them there machines an's flgurin' on retirin' ter live ther balance er his gol durn natural life off hen income. Seems ter yer Uncle Jake Ed had er gal what lived out in Loudon Park Seminary, an' what's father had a swell job, he was over er couple dozen thousand people, yes indeed, by heck, he was ther night watchman in ther cemetery, an' why he done packed her in, yer Uncle Jake ain't never been able ter tabulate. Oh, Cleopatra! Ther ancient order er Nuts held its first reunion at ther Bucket er Blood Hall at Gobbler's Knob on Monday night and with ther 'sis-tance er the Gobbler's Knob Cornet Band, er lively evening was consumed. Ther original founders er ther Order is all packed erway, good an' tight, under six feet er dirt. Ol' I. M. A. Nut was ther first grand past master, an' U. R. A. Nut held ther supreme command fer er couple dozen years, terday Hazel Nut is ther only woman what's ever had ther distinction er fillin' ther bill an' bein' er suffragist, she kin handle things pretty gol durn well. But like all sercieties there's some yaps what want ter be ther whole cheese an' as er consequence ther meetin' ended in er free fer all fight when some critter blew out ther lamp an' cracked Hazel Nut with er hammer; chairs, tables an' every gol durn thing flew hither an' thither propelled by ther wicked hand er some upstart, If ther disturbance had stayed inside ther hall, it wouldn't have been so gol durn bad but er chair came out ther winder an' hit yer Uncle Jake's brand new plug hat, an' pushed it down over his face, nigh 'bout smotherin' him an' hadn't it been fer ther quick action er Ol* Peter McGluck-er, what tied er rope round ther brim an chucked it over er tree limb an' pulled with all his might, yer Uncle Jake might er been no more. As it was ther rope slipped an' nigh 'bout choked yer Uncle Jake ter death. Fer er while yer Uncle Jake thought Ol' Peter was tryin' ter do him er faver, but gol durn if he don't believe he was tryin' ter kill him, 'cause in ther last 'lection when yer Uncle Jake was 'ledted Mayor by er majority er half er vote, Ol' Peter was ther 'posin' candidate an' he ain't never got over ther fact of how yer Uncle Jake got that half er vote.

A Man Whom You Can Trust And A Man Who Will Trust You. E E 0 Moses of Mount Nebo Was a Great Man in Israel T T is not related that he man-¦1 ufactnred or sold clothing, but bat he did pretty nearly everything else, and in everything he was great. He loved his people and he spent the best years of his life working to better their condition and his labors were fruitful, for he delivered them bondage and led them out of the wilderness and crossed the Red Sea and set them free. It takes a great man to do a work like that. Moses of "Old Town" Is not as great a general as his Illustrious namesake, nor would he undertake to eross a pond of water over knee deep, but in his special line—making good clothes and giving them to his people at low prices—he's great, as great as any man that ever wore shoe leather.
