Oh, I'm suspicious, an' the Good I ness and the Gracious knows I've! got a right to be, fer in dry terri tory Satan has all sorts o' svlieines an' devieces with which to kiverl his tracks. I thought it wu. bad enough when the ol' man vu. carryin' a liook aroun' marked 'New Test ament' an' lo an' iH'hol', it wuz as holler on the inside as the ol' man's head is with jest room enough fer a Mat pint Mask! An' what wuz the worst of it, the pint Mask wuz thar, an' bit plumb lull: "Did ever you hear tell o' the likes before! I never did!

Now, it so happened that once, when the ol' man come home full, an' I had the favorable opportunity to sarch his pockets, I found a purty big box with a label o. it, sayin' thar wuz 'Headache Pill s' inside. "Well, I put itinthe medicine chistan' fergot all about it till then when I gets it out, an' tellsthedea con'bout it. 'I'll jest try oneo' them pills,' he says, 'mebbe it'll ease the pain.' As deacon took the box in his han' I noticed that the ol' man looked mighty intelli gent an' said that as he likewise had the misery in his head, he'd jest try the remedy hiss'f. "An' now I'm a comin' to the story: Both him an' the deacon took one apiece; then the deacon said that the one he took only eased one side o' his head, an' he reckoned he'd take another. 'Same here,' says the ol' nian; and down wenttwo more pills. 'They're mighty big ones', says the deacon, 'an' they bust in yer mouth an' slide down yer throat like they wuz greased!' 'They do,' says the ol' man swallerin' two more That s the lieauty ot em . "Well, in less time than it takes to tell, the deacon riz up an' hit the table with his list, sayin' that he wuz a better man than the preacher; the ol' man kuocked the lamp over an' said he wuz a better man than the deacon, an' to my everlastin' horror, both of em started fer the front yard to settle the difference of opinion. You see it now, don't you! Them 'pills' so to speak, m that box wuz nothin' more n'er less than what you might call concentrated lickcr in dis guise! To prove it to my own satisfaction, I took one of 'em my self an' in less'n two minutes I had holt o' the broomstick beatin' both the deacon an' my ol' man!
