"FLAW PICKER" NETTLES 'YOUNG AMERICAS" WELL. (Shelby AV?r Kra.) I am persecuted more than any body and I'll be goldarru'd if I'll -ubtnit to it. Now, if I would pull n neal bag over my head aod ram my ar full of cotton and soile the ol ctory nerves of my nose , then per iaps I coulil get along p-.'aseful and oy nerves might not be evirylsst ngly tore an:l lacerated. It'3 iu onyenient to go to all this trouble ind 1 hope I may be quartered and stuck up on a high pole if I dont .nake some of these: fellows howl yet if hey persist in beinj unmitigated inisances and dont hush their hi talkin. I hear that quite a nataber of peo pie were indignant with me bccwiBc .hey found my letter to Clarencv very tame. Disappointment isjnt what they deserve 1. Trwbably they would have enjoyed tha piece better iT they had subscribed for the paper nd paid their subscriptions like while men. Resiles, I want it di3 linctly undcrs. tod th.it lm not writm to please people and if they dont like what I wr.te, or havent ot Relive enough to sc the point in what I say, let 'em q iit dead bcat ing the paper and stop reading it. If I want to write a sympathetic letter and be calm and serene, I am goinj to do it and its none of their dad8hrivel!ed business, that's all. I hear that Mr. Windy Rag and Sqaire Goody Goody and Dr. Ticker Guzz'.er and one or two other bnll ficea have offered to wager their seedy louo caps and their slick trousera and five dollar bills that belong to somebody else that ,4Flaw Picker" hasnt srot monev cnonah to " rav hi8 debts. Now these lunatica meant that as an in?n"t, but I need not take it as such. For I know lotn of good men whoe whtng leakier they are not worthy to untie, who cant pay their debts and it's just. because such blab mouths as these have humbugged them out of their cash. I advise these Vanderbilts and almighty dod rotted prompt (?) debt set lers to tr.kc better care of their dingy old duds , for if they are took up on their hot, they will lose tho last rotten rag they've got. I've not only cot the stuff to pay my debts but I actually do paj- 'em and I don't cheat people and I dont buy votes and I dont tell lies and I dont drink 1 cker behind the door and I dont act the streaked liver hvpocrit. The sill j ct of my text this week will be the Youna Americas and the Old America- The Young American are as numerous as flics Ml 1 as pests- forom as flea-. They have a lot of traits in common, the most conpicu- ons of which is the awful abundance of luferoal mean traits and the terrK tile delbdiiLlie' of good ones. Who sw 3gtrtt!i about the streets on Miaaav and lofiici.n on me corner to sec the girls go b ? The Young America. Who upendetii his last nick for a smnkerttt and struttcth abng the. sidewalk smoking big as a. watch? Young America. Who standcth. with stiff legs and his f;et wide np'.rt, his hands in his j pockets ar.d trying to ssy the power ful smart thir.g? The lousy loung America. Who cstecmeth himself the boss do in the kenncll , the bull of the woods and the cock of the walk? Tho yaller dog of n Young America. Who atforeth the wslkin red nosed whiskey barrel! Who fatsck-th hi high boots and loveth his broad Lrim white-hat? Whc worshipeth his checked cl tl.es , who adrrireth his recklecs fool wayg and lor. get h to be like him? The hopelessly insane and ratth brait.el Young Amtricn. Who straddleth a fast lore and, huiking himself si dodasted grace ful, draw th a tight rein and split tieth the street wide open that people may behold hi excellency? Why, nobody but the ram-shamified pigeon-toed, grd for-nuthin Young Ame.Sca. I say, who grinneth at the girls all dining preaching and, at thr close of services, blockadeih the doorway and gazoth like a set of oitjicring fools at the touii ludio as thev come ontl The pop eyed Young America, of course. This conduct makes me so allfired mad, I just can't hardly keep from .-'mging otf their heads like I would a chicken's. It's dovcright impulet t and idioti. in them and it makes lie girls feel uncomfortaU to he stared at as if they were a ten cent side show. I tell you, I am a friend to the girl?. When I started in to wntin I did not bargain to get after them, bless Vm. They are all t io good for the professional gaz rs. They are na "ural'y obliging and those etinken Young Americas take a mean ad vantage of their goo nature. O! course, these dear little calico angel- fcl duty bound to dt about promi-s cuously and lis up like the very old dkkeiis to be gax .d at. How much time they do waste and how much expense they do go to all to please and f-tscinate tl ose worthless young whelps ! All their fnzzin and ban in and tnckin and pnwderin ani pamtin and sqneezin into tight things and robb.il biids of their wings and game roosters of their tails and huildin up here and pro ducing fashionable deformities and cutlin away there ar.d catchin cold in consequence all the3e are the direct, results of this unmannerly gazin. If the young ladies just only knowed wlut a h!a.ted rotten set tliese grinnin' , gigglin idiots arc, they wouldn't fee! under obligations to return their shecj hh glance?, and. sickening nhalk-r brained smiles. Again, pray tell me, who doth scribble mighty smart things and hart raellin' sentiment in the back of j of a needle as to try to change Lis he chnrJi hymn book? Now who opinions. He shuts his eyes and do you reckf n could be so zealous cf j holds on like a mill turtle r-nd wont fame, so devoid of corr.rnon sense, : let go t!l! i! tliunders. and propriety, po supremely green,! One st p faith, r j.nd you will so forgetful of the ordinary principles 1 arrive at the cag of the world ro of decnc. ? Or, in other words, who I nowned, lynx eyed, heavy browed, could act s ich a billy bedadslamrned fool but the Young America? I can't stand the hymn book scrih biers. It makes me hurt all ov?r to see ne. I saw one wr.tin in a hymn book not long ago and if I badnt a- clutched the seat of the bench with both hands and bit the back of the bench till the ifk-ct vore oif, I just hn..w I should have hollered a id 1 - ! cussed ri'ht in the meet in house and I would have bnat. t.hat Young America till hh hide wouldn't hold yaller cottpn. I have instructed my doctor thr.t if I am ever in desperate ! need of an emetic that he shall first try me on hot salt watt r, then on mustard, then tartar emetic, then j ipj.ecac, then louse soup, then green j fly ja.n ar.;l then dog tick jelly and if I these dont fail to stir my stomach, 5a a last resort, let me read the corns position that some Young America has wrote in the baes of a hymn j book and if tfaere is no upheaval, he may an well give :no up or dead . If there aia't a udgLty reformat i. 11 naiop"- those upstarts in the future. the j.e'.s up in this country certain p.ntl shure. Tne Old America, like tin' hurt" do and the ground hog and the hippo- j)Otamuses, ire very rftre. and fast j becoming extinct. We tolerate them j merely a? oc.rio-i'.ies. 1 always had too great a reverence for old aze t say sery hard things about this elasr. j a long as they wi:5 kt me nb.ne. 1 have the profo;,udest rr-p.'ct b-r j ray hairs exci ing the 'cw th-:l j craniurr.

You ore too biggcty and need singling out. I have, in mind an ancient land mark who is familiarly known a3 Old Dem. I suppose Dotn is a short way of saying demijohn.
