bought a nice new pair of pants.

And then alas he fell. But Johnnie

a perfect dream, But Jolinn'ie'a shape

Doc Kemp had the finest fir.e sale
ever seen fixed up when the fire
department were called out at five
o'clock yesterday evening. All Doe’s
plans were shot to pieces, however,
by a readheaded Mick who came fly
ing through the store—turned n cou
ple of hand-springs and lit on the roof
where he tore out a yard or two of
the burning shingles and put the
fire out.
We do not care to mention the
name of this person but Doe Kemp
is-no-more-on spenk'ing terms with
the Illustrious Villim McQuire. In
cidently there will be no fire sale.
Owing to the high post of living Mr.
A. S. Kemp has joined the nnti
