Show Boh lias a For Fears. Dear Editor: V ; ; ; Seein' that ye are invitin' yer frien's to correspond 1 wi ? ye, . I thought I would accept yer invitation invita-tion and get the chance o' seein' me name in prent, ' - The subject uppermost in me mind is education. We ha'e been for money a year try in to educate our Lamantte brethren and sisteren, but what is there to show; for a' our trouble?-" '; 1 I 1 : .v. We felt a holy horror at' seein In dian ladies ridin' straddle-leg on their horses and thought it sae disgust dis-gust in', but it seems sae vera hard tr trpt nnvihinfr into a Tninns . Iiar1 wi'out takin' his scalp off, that we ha'e about concluded to shut bur e'es to the nastinesso' the thing, and, followin the example o' Mohammed who couldna' get the mountain to comtchim, and so he went to the mountain; so, as we canna' get the squaws to come up to our standard, we ha'e concluded to ' go down to theirs. t ; . " It used to be th' idee that . American Ameri-can ladies only had thighs and ank-els, ank-els, but our young lasses are disa-busin disa-busin that idee and lettin' us see they ha'e legs that they can throw round a horse as good as their La-manite La-manite sisteren. ; So this appears to me, Mr. editor, to be another instance showin that we should be a leetle keerful, or instead in-stead of revolutionizin' th world, we may get revolutionized There are other things in this line but no more now.
