We practiced that kind of speculation one election summer and had to wear napkeen breeches ail the next winter and sometimes with holes in the scat and no drawers. No sir, positively, we can’t do it for you—not but that yoil’r aUright. but them other fellers, you know, they are so uncertain. Oh no, Sime, we’d like to, -frur we can't.
