PAKURANGA PUZZLERS.
M. says Ned might stand a show now, as the little hen is away eluclting. - Bridget thinks she wilf have to get sovne paint to give the grey parrot a coat of green. Captain T. is tacking his course eastward again. Is it to see little Eliza ? Puppy says he will not give up going to Holy Joe's as long as there is a bit of pear jam left. What brought L. to the pill box on Sunday night ? What brings C. to the store so often ? Is he trying to make' a match ? The Puppy had better look out that Snapps does not knock his eye out with the rolling-pin. She vows vengeance on poodles. What made B. get rid of his pack of cards ? Was he afraid Uncle would get them ? What brings H. down that back road so often ? I wouldn't be in Albert's boots for anything if Bill comes to hear of it. Miss W. says there will be a row if the pupil teacher don't stop throwing those sly glances at the butcher. What made Jim look so downhearted on Sunday last ? Was it because W. escorted Miss Gr. home ? The Mountain Maid is herself again. Matters are beginning to look serious between Flunky and Louisa, but on account of the tender age of both parties I would advise them to bide a \ree. The Pakuranga boys vow, if Miss 0. doesn't give over flirting with those Panniure larrikins she will always live in single blissfullness. Schnapps says she was quite pleased with Jim's pluck at the late dance. W. says it was very mean of those two girls not to pay the porterage on the bos.
