editor had decided to print all the
facts. The Indiana man wrote a local
news item as follows:

banker, suffered sunstroke while cut- j

was in bed.

here Tuesday. The doctor pronounced

him. j

beauty by any means, and has a gait

the old folks at home all his life and
is not worth shucks. It will be a
hard life.—Sooner State Press. i
