A Few Notes From Rambler.
On-The \\ ing, U. S. A., )
Feb; nary, 1893. j
Mr. Editor Would you and
your readers like to have a lew lit¬
tle jottings—a mixture—-a medley
from Rambler as he stops a little
while to rest by the way?
*
*
IIow refreshing it is to get out of
the noise and confusion of railroad
and city life, and to spend a little
while in your quiet, modest little
town. The traveler may rest assur¬
ed that friend Dopson and wife and
charming little daughter will ever
make it as restful and pleasant for
him as possible.
*
*
While in your little city the Ram¬
bler means to be just as good as he
knows how, lest violent hands be
laid on him by your efficient Mar¬
shal, who seems to he ever on the
lookout for evil doers, and who is
said to make all delinquents “stand
up to the rack, fodder or no fodder.’
Doubtless he can explain following :
A jug of rum,
A drunken man,
A hungry horse,
And Swan-e-^raa.
The Rambler picked up the fol¬
lowing four lines, which can cer¬
tainly be explained by a young M.
J)., and by another who sometimes
makes the welkin (anvil) rirg.—
Listen :
Two double teams often seen,
Inclement (Clements) though the
weather be;
As smoothly on the wings of speed,
They travel eastward—do you see?
And this :
Bis Charlie, Bel, and Kl-ino-rs,
With Wilbur, F., and Marcus P ,
Bat in a circle, round and round,
While Democrat &1., <&1.
A present Cross,
An inward smart ;
An absent Cross,
A happy heart.
It is said that an ece'esiastic,
well known in these parte, became
a little nervous recently when a
certain couple came in church a
little late, after “Madam Rumor”
had gotten in some pretty good
work ; but said ecclesiastic explain¬
ed his nervousness as the effect of
a dose of quinine taken the night
before.
By ihe way, the Rambler had an
opportunity of attending divine ser¬
vice in Sycamore several weeks
ago, and be it said to the praise of
the people, they were ordeily and
attentive, and entered with spirit
into the singing which was good--
heightened by the skilful touch of
the organist. They seemed to en¬
ter fervently into tbe service. Your
minister seems to be well cared for
which may speak well alike, for the
Christian liberality of the people
and for the good work of the oflieL
aiu ol the church.
*
#
My time is now out and the train
will he here in a little while. These
rambling thoughts have caused the
Rambler to pass, almost unnoticed,
the hour—so pleasantly it came
and went.
Success to you and your worthy
enterprise, and to all the good peo¬
ple of Sycamore.
Very truly yours,
Rambler,
From IrwituviHe.
Irwinville, Fob., 20, 1893.
Mb. Editor Did you get a val¬
entine? A certain young lady with
whom are acquainted did ; ii was a
sight. She wants another, but the
gpe ehe wants must breathe rnascu-
line ifir, an 1 then we are of the
opinion that the m-x*. thing wanted
will be a ronrjinge license, then a
cook stove, washing machine, sew-
ir.g machine, an ox and lust, but
not Irani, a J v.
[If the boy is in tbe notion for a
pair of marriage licenses, all right,
we think the girl is.—E d.]
March winds will bring back to
our midst a sheepskin and another
gentleman, whose energy, pluck
and perseverance will soon place
hiir. in the front ranks of his pro¬
fession, and Irwinville will, no
doubt, greet him with much and
lasting appreciation. The sick will
he healed, the lame made to walk
and tbe blind receive their sight
from tire able phd , John Luke, M.
I)., late of the Louisville College of
medicine. Success to hnr.
We much regret- to hear that the
school near Irwi viile, G 11 , taught
by Miss Vio a Hall,of Eastman, baa
been discontinued. Her smiles and
pleasant face will be missed by the
surrounding community.
Dear M——, thou art an early bird,
And now since “Cieve” controls
You'll not let. other birds get worms,
And leave you watching holes.
You did that once when ‘Clove’ w ent in
Now you must go for all that squirms,
For you know, and I know d—<1 well,
That there’s more birds than worms.
Yours, W. G.c.
