AFTER THE TRUANT OFFICER.

Last Sunday at the residence of John Bruner, of the Bruner-Merry Telephone Co., a large number of friends and relatives assembled with well filled baskets of everything imaginable that was good to eat and impressed upon Mr. Bruner the fact that it was his 44th birthday annniversary. This action of the good hearted neighbors took Mr. Bruner by surprise, but he soon recovered from the shook and enjoyed all the pleasures that had been prepared for him. The dinner table was soon loaded down and it was here that all took a part and did justice to their faces. The day was a continuous round of pleasure and Mr. Bruner fully appreciates the generosity on the part of all who participated.
