Legends Of P. E. Island

ITOBY OF THE BOISE AND CART

By Uncle J oe

This story takes u: back to the days when men were men, and when a horse and cart were a lux- ury only indulged in by the passing rich."

It was well after sunset that Tom and Jerry hitched the old gray mare to the cart and started on their horneward journey to Milton.

Both men were seated on the front of the cart box, their feet resting on the thills, the way all pc-ople sat who drove in carts.

Between them was a tyre-gallon jug of rum. the most potent that money could procure.» Overhead the big full moon rode the sky, dllfllllg now and then behind a few floating cloud banks. The two old-timers smoked their pipes be- tween drinks and spun yarns while the cart rattled its way over the rough country road. The old gray rrare hit her own pace. heedless of the tales that were being told.

With that jar of rum neither Tom nor Jerry cared a whistle what time they would reach their homes; and for the moment. at least, they were care-free and happy,

The talk wcnt on, punctuated evrry now and then by gale; o; merry laughter. The rays of the moon fcli on the rum jar as each

man. in turn, braced himself and lifted the precious liquid to his lips. Once or twice the mare turn-

ed her head to take a side glance at the man who jerked u bit too ixeavily on the reins.

1t was a glorious June night, a night when all nature was attuned to the joy of the riders. \'i'ho would have thought that on such a night: disaster would be lurking just around the corner?

Both men were planning on a ride, the following week. to the city. where they hoped to reenact the happy events of this golden moment. ‘

In a split second it was all over.

Right in front of them came a huge round ball of fire. It passed between the mares ears and struck the cart squarely in the center.

Both men jumped for their lives. falling headlong into the bushes that grew beside the highway.

When they recoveredjrom thc- sliock and crawled to the road, the ball of fire was dancing a circle around the old gray mare and the cart. while atop the jar of rum sat c. little man with whiskers longer than Miniiie's tail.

Toni and Jerry rose to their feet and blinked their eyes in amazb. rncnt at the strange sight.

Still looking. they saw the mm» fellow take hold of the jar and pour its contents over the mare's back. No sooner had the little man Performed this act than the animal burned to a crisp. Then the cart took fire and soon vanished in thin smoke.

Horrifled‘ the men fled from the scene as fast as their drunken legs could carry them.

“What became of the horse and curt?‘ queried their neighbors the following day.

‘Tom and Jerry both same story, namely;

"Why. we was offered such a fancy price for the outfit, by a rich gent in the city, that we decided to sell out and walk home."

PEPTIC ULCEII -- OPERATION 0R MEDICIAL_TBEATMENT?

A friend recently called me from a veteran's hospital and told me that while under observation it was found that he had an ulcer of the first part. of the small intestine- duodenai ulcer-and that. he'd like me to make s. “social”, not a pro- fesslohal. call. When I learned his full story, I was not surprised that he had the ulcer because he always had been u. worrier and. ‘h addi- tion, had trouble enough to cause an ulcer in one who was not. s wor- tier.

The surgeons and the physicians offered him his choice of an irri- mediate operation which would ai- low him to get back to his pro- fessional work within a few weeks. or undergo medical and diet treat- ment. which would take three to four weeks. In addition. this would mean another two weeks regaining strength to resume his work. As both surgeons and physicians thought the medical treatment as given today would be best for his age and condition, he decided that as some of his problems were clearing to some extent he would undergo the medical treatment.

acme years no surgery was the usual method of trestina ulcer of the small intestine and of the stomach-peptic ulcer-but todsv medical and diet treatment is used almost entirely unless scar tissue is obstructing the movement of food. Also, durinq the medical and diet treatment the patient. learns from dav to day that it. is his manner of living-hurry and worry-that causes ulcers and that his hone of DTGVEHHII; future ulcers depends noon his acquiring a phlloscohy 0i iife that ensures calmness of spirit.

Not that on any of these days nearing Christmas, it follows an orderly schedule, for intermingled with the discharge of more insistent duties, there are those delightful intervals for other fascinating interests, incidental to the bewitching season now at hand. "Wouldn't it be lovely if we could live these days without having to consider the preparation of meals. or being bothered with the clean- ing-but just have plenty of time to enjoy each day to the fullest?" ‘I commented to Jeanie.
