Wiping Out A Cold

We Lnve had great woather tliis spring. I uall ii great weatber, becau!e wo had to uso the grate all season to get warm. It was origina!])1 narned Spring weather becausc it was po wet. April sliowers used to bring forti) flowers, but thatis all played out. The ouly flower in blossom dow is tbe shad roes. I lave eoine elegant trees urouud rav house but there aiu't a thing on 'cm but kititails. I guess thtre wiil be a good erop of kite tails this season. If the okl raginen ouly had wingg and eouldfly around loose and gathei' the white muslin rags frora the trees they'd get rieli. Itis bad weather for eolde, or it is goud vfeather for colds. Subscribers ot the Jb'spatch can have their choice. I have un Irishtuan who works for me cheap, becauee over the fenco there is a good looking liiddy who ho tallis to by tho üght of the stars. This Inshruan got yp before I did the other moruing, and he inhuled a lot of ing and got a precious eold. Ho conghed so that he woke up rfiy baby. So I got rny wife toüx hi m a piaster, and bv the ligbtof the pale moon-k-ams he ascended tiie broad blaek walout staira to go to bed, I followed him. He cilept up in the steeple whither I glided afler hiru His enibroidered door swung upon iis lofty hiuges. Aftor glancing ai the waiuscot, 1 said : " Hare, Pat, take this piaster, it is oue of the best things in the world for a cnld." ïhen I bid him good niht. I awoke froui a duep t,lutu5eï about 3 a. m., and thouht 1 heard ii fctrug;!o going OD up stairs, but soon lept airain. The next morniug, alter soeing Pai swailow twelve glasses of eold water, I asked him how he feit. "Ah," eaid he, " faith aud I feel (juare-liko. It was a hard dose that, Mr. B. It was too tough to cliew, bo 1 swallowed it wholu. By jaliers, Mr. B., but do you knnw I think Mrs. B's. utentionn wcre all right, I lielieve the dose of white inuslin was correct, but she made a mis take in tho quaniity of mustaid, m it Inirned too uiuch goingdnvvn. Althongh the poor feil w had swullowed oue of our btat napkins, I had to laugU to think that was one way to wipa out a cold.
