OUR VACATION TRIP One Day when we were in Alberta we met an old fellow who spoke to us Andrew us water from the well. We sat down on a Sharp Stone and told him we were from Hart- ford. although we used to live in Fort Meyers and were born on the banks of the Bonny Clyde. “1 Pecharich if you’re Scotch,” said he. But we had to admit that we were only salesmen on our way to visit our Rood Neice who lived in the Dell. “And what do you sell? asked he. “Although we came in an old Jackson roadster from the St. Lawrence river.” we told him. “we have a line of Fitch’s Shampoo, Haines’ Busses, Lindzey-d oil, a bass Horn, a liberty Bell which is cracked, and some Magic Mud that a Freak in St. John uses instead of shaving soap. Just then a troop of caterpillars came out of their Puckett beneath the rock. We screamed and dashed to a safe place beneath a huge Fern. There a Lillie grew in a Davis which the old gentleman said he won in his youth by playing tennis at a tourn- ament held in a box Carr by Hornbaker. “I never lost my Capps,” blustered the old fellow, “when I used to ride horses that could Buck faster than Bill Cody could shoot buffaloes.” “Speaking of Buffalo Bill,” he continued, “I visited him at his home on Lake Irma, and there attempted 1 to break the world’s speed record. I should have succeeded if he hadn’t said, ‘Lookout or the Hubble come off.’ This frightened me so much that I never tried for the record again. “And. he continued, “Cody’s wife was rather fickle, as she used to Pattison and try to make him great like General Lea. She always had the house Wallick-d clean, and she usually carried one of her game Cox in the Palmer hand. “Well---- But we interrupted him and said, “This automobile of ours, when loaded, does not weigh a Singleton, yet it Winstons of races when the other cars do not go taster. “Humph,” said he. but we left him to himself as we were in a hurry.
