The Part of the Letter "E."
The letter "e" is very impor
iaru, as me iouowing lrom tlie
(laffney Ledger will testify:
A friend recently handed us
the following:
"Someone has advanced the
opinion that the letter V is the
most unfortunate character in
the English alphabet, because it
is always out of cash, forever in
debt, never out of danger and in
hell all the time."
For some reason he overlooked
the fortunates of the letter, so,
we will call his attention to the
fact that 'e' is never in war and
always in peace. It is the beginning
of existence, the commencement
of ease and the end
of trouble. Without it there
would be no meat, no life and no
heaven. It is the center of
honesty, makes love perfect, and
without it there would be no
editors, devils nor news.?
