Until now it seems they have been content to go hopping about elsewhere but in recent days they have taken to coming in here. What they expect to find we have not the slightest idea. And yet they sit on the parliamentary guide, the dictionâ€" ary, look over all the papers and sit on the top of one‘s head. Flies are mean that way. We aro sure flies are stupid. Right near to the building there is a restaurant which keeps open long hours each day and night. If they knew anything at all they would not be wasting their _ time around an editorial office where no victuals enter, They would â€" be snooping around the restaurant next door or departing on an excursion to the grocery store on the street.
