Exchange: Bobby was inspecting the new baby for the first time, and his dictum was as ioilows: “I s’pose it's nice enough what there is of if,” he said without enthusiasm, “but I in sorry it ain’t a parrot.” When can a man have some thing and nothing in bis pocket at the same time ? When there is a hole in it. If there is a hole in the lungs it can be healed with Taylor’s Cherokee Remedy of Sweet Gum and Mullein. \ Hairy Chicken.
