The Small Boy' Composltfe b a the Fellae Race. Cats is an insect what has no wings and has a long tail. It looks like fishworms, only Oshworms hasn't ot no hair on it like cats has. Cats is black, and sets on back fentses and buzzes its wines, which it hasn't got any. Cats'es like locusts 'bout this, skept locust'es got wings, an' cats waves its take 'bove its head, and don't set on trees. Cats was a Nameriken invention made by Mr. Pharaoh, of Egypt, Illinois, 'bout one thousand years ago or so ; I ex pect it has so or mabbe more so. Anyway this man didn't get no patent on cats, and they was copied by some fulish man who carried 'em to New Yorick where they have ruled tilings at night with a tight pair o' strings, fur some daze. Cats has a hump back with long bristles onto it. It has a pair o' lungs, which extends clean back to its tail, which is long. It uses all o' these yere lungs in singin' low, sweet melodies to the pail, water' mune, 'bout 1 o'clock in the morning. Cats some times sits on the comb of a slippery roof, an' sizen sobs an' squalls an' strokes each others whiskers. Cats uses two legs to set on, one to stand on, an' tother to fan his partner with. I know two cats which did this on our woodshed. I guess they did it because they thought they would shed. When I say this I don't mean wood shed, but wood shed. I know they got up there to shed, for Jack and me found half a hatful of catfur, an' a pocketful o' claws there the next inornin.' Wonder why they don't shed in the daytime? Must be the mune had something to do with it. Cats unlike the insecks, doun't have no stingers. The bumblebee has. I onc't caught a bumblebee an' gave it to a cat. Cats don't like bees, espeshly them what hez splinters in ther talez, which this had. The thing stung all the way down and half way back again ; that cat run about seventeen miles an' then drop ped down by th? shady side of a stayhack an' "quickly, without warn in' he hastily died a sudden death all at once, for want of breath. Onct when Jack an' me was playin' Gshin in our well with a tom-cat tied to a string. Jack got hurt. He had the cat down in the well, waitin' fur a bite, an when his back was turned it crawled up the brick an' clawed the sap outen him. After that Jack didn't fule with cats. I once knew a man who was wicked enough to throw a stove-lid through a big tom-cat at night, an' the very next day ho heard that his grandmother had broken her leg in New Orleans and several other places, which proved how wicked and sinful it is to disturb the critters ; an' that's all I know about cats. Blade. ScoflS Emulsion of Pure Cod Liver Oil with llypophoiiphites. For Bronchial Troubles and General Debility. Thomas Bovnk, of Digby, N.- makes the following statement: "1 have been using Scott's Emulsion for six months, and have derived more ben efit from it than any other treatment, In deed I believe it has saved my life, and can honestly recommend it to any one for bronchial trouble or any debilitating disease." A Scotch minister was once or dered "beef tea" by his physician. The next day the patient complained that it made him sick. "Why, min ister," said the doctor, "I'll try the tea myself." So, putting some in a skillet, he warmed it, and told the minister it was excellent. "Man," said the minister, "is that the way ye sup it?" "What ither way should it be suppit? It's excellent, I say, minister." "It may be gude that way, doctor; but try it wi' the cream and sugar, man ! Try it wi' that, and then see boo ye like it!" X Note of AdmlratloB. The "Washington Post says: We ad mire the stand taken by numerous eminent physicians in changing the mode of treatment of coughs and colds, and publicly ndcrsing Bed Star Cough Cure be- it is effica cious, free from dangerous ingredients and without morphia or opium. This excellent remedy costs but twenty. hve cents. MURRAY & CO., GROCERS And Dealers in Special Attention Civento Filling Of Orders. A FULL LINE CARRIED And Supples furnished at Satis factory Terms.
