perhaps my trumpet would have rais
ed him, as he said people thought It
was Gabriel blowing. I am very glad
to know that Popes has so many old
maids as that Is zackly what I've been
looking tor for sixty years more or
less. But It seems that I have no
cTTance to meet any or tnem, as 1 am
kept busy in the "orchestra" all the
time, and as soon as the showls over
they seem in a great hurry to get out,
and none but a tew Turnip Sallets ev
er come up to speak to me. Now Mr.
G. H. P. you tell those old maids not
to be In such a hurry to leave ndxt
time I cohie or J shall" put Bob Con
yers on their track. l am sorry to
know- that Mallle Ransdell Is too stin
gy to drink enough branch water
when there la a freshet, for I usually
stop at his house on show nights and
take supper with him, and If he Is as
stingy as all that, am sure lie would
rather I would pass on In the future. |
But I do so much enjoy eating at his
house as Mrs. Ransdell Is one of the
best of cooks, and has the best ham
sop and gravy I ever flopped my bill
: into and T sure do have a greasy meat
time (it his house. Now Mallle how
about It: Is Q. H. P. telling the
truth? or stretching his blanket as us
ual. If you are too stingy to drink
enough branch water, I hope you will
not get too stingy to breathe fresh air,
as fresh air will prolong your life and
don't cost a cent. Now G. H. P. how
about yourself being stingy? If you
have been at any of the picture shows,
I have ndtvjeen you . Does the ten
oents admission keep you away? If so
I will borrow Bob's banjo for you and
you can tell the doorke- per that you
belong to the orchestra and be Will let
you In free of charge. It you have
been at any of the shows while I was
thore, don't you think you hare treat
ed me mighty shabby by not coming
up and speak to me a few words of
consolation? I shall keep an eye out
for you and hope to see you there next
time, and If you are not there I will
take you before Judge Bob Oonyers
for trial, then you will be sorry for
yourself. Tell Rob to pick out the
purtlest one of those old maids tor
me. for I expect to be at the next
show. That's 'bout the best thing I
can think of.
