None of these things happened. Mr.
Conkling did not go to tho convention

Tho moments gliding swiftly by,
Now and then a word was spoken,
Now and then a broken sigh.
Jlegsqueozed her hand and softly said,. '
My dearest darling sugar plum
Won't you be my hueklcberry,
Through all the days that's yet to come?
She swooned away and looked forlorn,
And gazing in his loving eyes,
She says, dear me. you know I love you,
Better than I love apple pies.
One little favor yet I ask,
And you must grant it dearest John,
Before i'll be your huxoy-duxey
Through all the days that's yet to come.
Oh, Mary Ann, what cau it be,
What now would you have me do,
I'll swim the ocean wide and deep
Or whip a thousand men for you.
I'll sail into the red man's camp,
And clean them all out hook aud line.
I'll do my very level best,
If you will promise to be mine.
Now, dearest John, i would not
Have you 'do such things as these,
Th thiug I ask is one of pleasure,
And can perform it with greatest ease.
If you will make me this one promise,
To trade at Minton Bro's Store,
Why, then, you bet your bottom dollar,
Til be yours forever more.
Oh, Ma'y Ann..you cruel girl,
You should have told me this before
Look at. these new clothes 1 have on,
They came from Minton Bro's 8tore.
And when jin need of anything
Whether it be to eat or wear,
We will go and see thu boys
And doHour little trading there.
And now, kind friends where 'ere you arc.
We've this to say and nothing 'mure: -When
you'ro in need of anything ' )
Please buy at Minton Bro Stoic,
You may need but very lew goods
We know that you'll be "needing some.
They do what's right and treat you lair,
