Still cnothcr button is pressed, at which we start to drop slowly fnd luzily'through tht 'ir. he are scarcely aware of going down, until tht outline of the city becomes very plain.

About People Who Advise 1 suppose as long as this good old world keeps a'rollin' along there'll always be folks that'll give advice to anybody fur nothin'I And it's a shame. 'Course I ain't got nothin' against them perfessional advisors. They're paid to give it, and it ain't given unlcss it's paid for. But these people that'll give loads of advisin' that ain't called fur,--well, I don't like that kind very fancy. I remember 'way back in the Eighties-that year we had the grandest blizzard ya'ever see--in that same year, a trifle before we had that that blizzard, a young whipper-snapper from New York arrived in Town. He pranced inta' the hardware store Cthat's the town folk's meetin'-place? and asked whar he cud find a place to board. We-all, rightnway, Hitch Thomas Cthat's our first seo-c-leet-nmnl told him that Widda O'Connell ' would welcome him heartly. Naw, Widda' O'Connell was one of those buxom lrishwomen that cooked the grandest cookin' in the whole town. She was, in so many words, an expert on that subject. There wan't nothin' you cud tell her about vit- tles and such, Wa-all anyhow, to get back to my storye-this hyar young upstart thanked Hitch for the recommendation, and thin he turned around, sudden-like, and nodded down at the counter. Right in a flash he sez, UNow sir, if you would take advice from worthy sources, you would clean those tubs and other clutterings off the counter and pile them in the back of the store, where they wouldn't be in the customer's wayn. NNow, listen h'yar, a young fcllor, I ain'ta goin' to take yer advice. Besides, if nobuddy saw the things, where w'ud they be knowin' what to buy? So, smarty, ya' butter skidaddle and leave me to me own business, Good day!N With-this Hitch dismissed the fellow. In fact Hitch always hinted kinda' strong-like when he didn't want anybody's presence. Well for a coupla days, the stranger lived very peacefully at Widda O'Gonnoll's. He seemed to be thrivin' too, on the widow's good cookin'. One fine day this fella happened to stroll into the widdie's kitchen, and stood for a second a'watchin' her mix up her well-known sponge-cake. Uwidar O'Connell,H he began. HSure, and what is it that you'd be a wantin'?U MI've been watching you, madam, and I noticed how you mixed up that cakelu Sure and cud it be that ye dldn't like the way I did it? she re- torted, suddenly bristling with uncontrolled rage as only an Irish per- son can. Wwell, now Mrs. O'Connel1g I believe that you've put just a mite too much sugar in that?W
