The cowcumber cums under the hed ov gardin sass, and they gro on a running vine, and the vine kan beat every vine running, for 100 yards, in Amerika, after it gits started.
They are a little balky about starting.
I hav known a cowcumber vine to run 15 foot in one night besides giving birth to 7 young cowcumbers on the way.
Kowcumbers kut up into thin slices, and rooled in peper, and psalt, and soaked in vinegar, are good, for a sharp pain in the hebdominal region.
A cowcumber iz about the only thing that i kan remember ov now, that iz good for nothing, after it reaches perfektshun.
Mister Boggs.—Yure letter, informing me ov the loss ov yure dog, reached me by yesterday’s male.
I know how to commune with you, Boggs, for i hav been deprived ov a dog once miself.
I lost a most flattering purp on the 16th day of March three years ago.
I found him ded in a vakant lot, near mi house.
He probably had been struck with lightning, or sumthin else.
