I often wonder what j some folks would do if every thing' suited them. If we had uo dry wen thor, if the {jrasa could be kept down, if their wives cooked every thing to | suit them, if tho tooth nobe never tm tin ed t hem, if the phenolier al ways j preached to suit their own taste, if] they could make the town laws and make everybody vote with them; if all these things were possible I would get to go to several second class fun. erais in the near future.
