How botmiliiff boom uro on created)
If possible to npuro tliu spneo
In your nont column, givo It place.
Wo stood beside n dry-goods box
Myself nnil friend Tlmolhon Cox
I pounding on n crumbling brlek,
Ho whittling tip n soft plno stick,
And there wo stood, ami smoked, mut talked,
Ami nuro wo startod out, rtml walked
Tlio crnry sidewalk up nml down,
And upoko about thv drowsy town,
Its silo, Its dullness, and It growth,
And neither ono ol us wu lonth
To praise tlio plnoo with till our powers
And there wo stayed six mortal hours.
At last Tim coyly unld to mo,
"If you ami I oanjmt atirot.',
I'll lot you havo my corner lot,
And sell it to you 011 tlio spot.
Tlio lot Is slxlitly, IiIkIi and nice,
And tills will bo my lowest price,
Truo iik wo horo toKOthor stand,
Ono hundred dollar, cash In hand."
I said, "I havo not not a dime,"
And ha replied, "Then buy on time,"
"I Ktienn," said I "thrtt wo can triulo,
I'll tako It" and the nalo was made.
Thon on" wo wont, and drank together
And talked iiImiuI tho cropN, tho wentlior,
Cyclones on land, storms on tho Nea,
Tho prices of town projMirty,
HiiKO ball, tho tarlir, prohibition,
Which warmed us with their sharp attention
Thou I proposed to neighbor Tim,
To soil my corner Imolt to him.
Two hundred dollars was my price,
Which ho accepted In a trice,
And thus wo traded back and forth;
IJnch time tho lot IncmUed In worth,
Until Its value ran so IiIkIi
It almost towered to tho sky.
Next morning In tho HVWt'i JJum,
Tho transfers struck tho pooplo dumb,
And IIkui I'd up, to bo exact,
Klglit thotiNutid dollars "for n fact,"
Tho no m soon spread from town to town,
And people hurried up and down

Ato corn bread, slept on Hour mid cots,
And purchased all our choicest lots
At prices truly fabulous,
Delighting them, and pleasing us;
And theso tranxnetloiis gnvo our town
A wldo repute and ureal renown.
