fidently to a baby as to an adult.

W. H. Flynn was out oversee
ing some road building the other
day and as the road ran near a
cotton patch in which a young
lady was gathering the fleecy
article, he began to slight the
road and began to see-over the
cotton field. Mr. Flynn of course
is no farmer and as he had never
picked any cotton, he at once
concluded this was an excellent
opportunity for a new man to
take his first lesson in the art.
Our commodore, (a name we
have given him because with his
sideburns, he favors commodore
Vanderbilt.) had on his everyday
paraphernalia consisting of side
burns on his sweet countenance
and a hat at the upper extremety
and a large pair of E. Stout,
Snagproof, Lambertville Rubber
Boots on his fundamental
principles, and a checkered as
sortment of divers and various
other articles between and be
twixt the two. With this cos
tume he entered the cotton field
which had been picked over once
and as a result cotton was very
much scattered. This girl pick
ed cotton so fast and compelled
Mr. Flynn to walk so fast in his
rubber boots that his heels be
gan to peal like an onion in shed
ding time. Mr. Flynn is always
very thoughtful and as a result
of his forethought, borrowed a
pair of shoes from Mr. Will
Grimes in order that he might
finish that row of cotton. He
did accomplish his task and is as
proud of it as a baby is of a stick
of candy, but Mr. Flynn has
been laid up ever since with fche
foot-evil. We sympathize with
our Commodore very much and
hope he will soon be out again in
full blast.

had disappeared and no more suf
fering was experienced. In three
days the child was wearing her
shoe as usual and with absolute
