3IY EMOTIOXAIj JTIJfK
By Norman t Rgjf. ;
I was sitting with my darling; f
We were gazing at the Won
And the dreamy, summer languor
Made my senses almost swoon;
But Just when toy warns emotions
Were attuned to highest pitch,
My poor bou! went dropping earth-
' ward , - r! i '
For my nose began to itch! 'f
I was seated at a conceri 1 .
Where a master weavedj his spejl.
And his playing seemed celestial.
Now 'twas soft and now twouid
swell; . .i j !
Soon my soul was filled with long
ing,
Nothing earthly could appease; -1
Then the spell was rudely broken.
And I simply had to sneeze!
It has always been my j trouble ;
That at moments most -sublime
Some disgracefal thing will
hap-
Without failure, every time.
If an orchestra or speaker '
Mores me to emotion deep, . .
My shoe lace becomes infastened
Or my foot will go to slep! .

Another query asks if the tour
ist must have fishing and hunting

of four plan to visit Oregon this

friends whom he wished to inter
est in this state. r

pointed oat that the 1,243 miles
of roads in Marlon county : only
302 miles were not surfaced with
