LOUGHARYS' OFFICE BOY 6 4a It must be a great consolation to a widow to know that the insurance more than covers the loss. It's only natural for a widow to looking out for number one, but I know a number down where we live who are looking out for number two. I heard a fellow say, "If you've got hay fever don't marry a grass widow." I guess people don't get the bay fever around these parts; it's mostly alfalfa. A fellow came in the store the other day and said to the boss, "Why don't you hire a man to write your ads and a kid to run tbe errands?" Gee, wouldn't that turn your whiskers gray? I guess that was a dig at me. I nave been so busy in the store of late to carry pack ages and so they come In the store and hand them to me. Well, you can lay bets" on one thing and that is I am cut out for a literary career. Some day J,will be a big editor and mould publics thought Meanwhile I am satisfied with being a big eater ar j helping to run the Loughary Grocery. If you're a big eater you .know we are the people and if you're 'a big editor you know our thoughts; viz, "Good things to eat and drink."
