making on Wednesday of last, week

of the Acorn Club. Numbers of non

had been played, seemed the more
tempting.

BREVITIES.
? We want, to thank numerous
friends for their indorsement of
our editorials last week. In them,
we endeavored to be absolutely
fair, giving the Dispensary
nothing that did not belong to
it, and honestly we don't believe
that there is a thing that belongs
to it, and handling the question
of good and better stock as it
should be handled.
? We sometime have to laugh
at ourselves for our habit of
fault-finding, but generallv ex
cuse it on the ground that wtieu
we do find fault, we are gutter
ing from an attack of chronic,
spazmodic dyspepsia. This, as
we all know, causes a contraction
of tiie byherbismic nerve, which
always results in hy^ermidic
parnlisoyd. Any physician will
explain these terms to yon, but'
they are in such common use
that we think all will understand
them. We are almost, cured of
that ailment now, and th4 -read
ers of The Peoplt may expect
less of this sort of thing} in the
future.
? Hf?re, you people who are
borrowing The People. Sub
scribe to it, and have one of your
own. We wauldn't give a slice
of dried apple for a man who,
when able to take as good a pa.
nor hs ours is supposed to be,
borrows the paper from perhaps
a poorer neihbor or friend. Come
down to it my friend, if you are
one of teose who are reading a
borrowed paper. Remember
that the printer has to live, and
to live, he has to have not dnly
yours, but the subscriptions of
many others who are less able to
pay for the paper than you are.
