First Alderman—And it says precisely the same thing in regard to cows, horses, and jackasses running at large. Second Alderman—Certainly. First Alderman—Well, I am opposed to jaekasses being compelled to wear rings in their noses like hogs. Second Alderman Oh, well, you needn’t wear a ring in your nose if you don’t want to! It required four men to separate them. —Newman Independent. * * * Rupture radically cured, also pile tumors and fistulas. Pamphlet of particulars, two letter stamps.
