A Hebron Love Letter.

Hebron Leader. The following love letter was picked up on the street Tuesday. It was written to a young lady with whom the writer had become enarmored: Dearest— If you can accompany me to the church on the 30th, please inform me at once. My dear, I am constantly thinking of you: my love is stronger than tlie smell of limberger cheese, store butter or the kick of an old cow. Sensations of exquisite joy go through me like the wind through my lilacs and caper over my heart like William goat on the back yard fence, I feel like I could lift myself by my boot straps to the realms of, time and hold sweet confaberations with the angels: as the mean pup hankers after sweet milk, so do I hanker after your presence, and as the goslin swims in the mud puddle, so do I swim in the sea of delightfulness when you. are near, my heart plays up anck down like a Churn dash, and my eyes stand open like cellar doors in a country town, and if my love is not reciprocated, I will pine away like a poisoned bedbug, and you can come and catch cold on my grave. Lovingless.
