Now How’s This For
“Britches.”
■‘Uncle” Mike Ply male, one
one of our best known citizens,
was in Jackson on Monday of
this week robed in a pair of
white pants that he says he
has been wearing for thiDy
eight years. The goods of
which the pants were made is
of an extraordinarily fine qual¬
ity, and though not a duck it
somewhat resembles that make
of goods in nppeavence.
The pants are still in good
condition and will nrobably last
< ( Uncle” Mike fifteen or twen¬
ty years longer. He gave six¬
ty-seven cents a yard for the
goods, and as he is about six
feet two inches in bight they
must have cost him in the neigh¬
borhood of §4 vvheu they were
purchased thirty-eight years ago.
Another interesting fact
about “Uncle” Mike is that he
has voted the straight democrat¬
ic ticket for the past fifty years,
and we presume those pants
are democratic “breeches,” or
else they would not have stood
the storms of thirty-eight sum¬
mers and still been doing good
service at this late date.—Jack

It has remained for a citizen
of Baltimore to invent a flea

Before we disclose the plan,
let it be distinctly
undeistood that it was a man,
and not a woman. He «‘>«ply
wrapped flj paper, with the
stickey side out, around his leges
up to his knees and waded
around the room. The fleas,
doubt, thought it a new design
in hosiery and leaped for the
