PAKURANGA PUZZLERS.

Smock-frocks are all the rage. The pupil teacher leads the fashion. Eumour says Bill and Olive are shortly going to run in double harness. Joe's mind is more easy now that Eli is married. Ann says one is as good as the other. PMiss 0. says she is quite willing to live in single blissfullness until she meets better than the Pakuranga boys. Miss GK says Jim need not have looked downhearted, for Bill never had the pluck to escort her home. Schnapps says Puppy can give up going to Q-ardener'B Hill for the pear ; Jane is all gone, Albert says he is not afraid of Bill hearing of Ms lonely walks, for he is as good a man any day. • Doughboy will have to give up shoeing if that new voice continues across the road ; he says he would rather hear the tinkling of a bell. Lizzie says she will have to go back to the Waikato, as she cannot get along with the Pakuranga larrikins at all. Jim says he is getting on well with Porky. He says she is a terror to kick. Joe walked as if he had tight boots on the other night, or did one of the maids tread on his toes ? Bob says the young 'uns are doing well. Schnapps is broken-hearted since she has lost 4he young wheelwright. Those two girls say that Bill and Jim are very good walking-sticks till Tom and Pussy come home, but then they will get the sack.
