KEEP DOGS OUT OF POSTOFFICE.
On two or three occasions recently we
Jiei.e noticed dogs in the postoflice growl
ing at and fighting with each other,
greatly frigbtennng Children and women.
Owners of dogs should not allow the
animals to go in ptibl'c places where so
many people congregate, and we fear
tbait unless it is stopped at once some
one will be bitten and there wiR be 'trou
b’e. A word to the wise should be suf
ficient.
Indignant Mother—Do you mean to
say that you permitted Mr. Higson to
put his arm about your waist of your
own free will?
Pretty Daughter (ironically)—No, in
deed, mamma. Considerable pressure
was brought to bear upon me, I assure
you.
“I am afraid Bliggons plays golf on
Sunday.”
“M^ybe,” said the contemptuous ri
val. “But, if so, it’s the only day in the
seven on which he can play it.”
For rheumatism you will find nothing
better than Chamberlain’s Liniment. Try
it and see how quickly it gives relief.
