owned by our progressive young

A woman in a Kansas Pacific rail
road car sat facing a man who, with
one eye at least, seemed to he star
ing fiXedly at her. She became In
dignant, and said, why do you
look at me so, STRIP He said that
he was not aware of having done SO,
but she insisted. IL beg your par
don, Madam, but it's this eye, is it
not?" lifting hts finger to his left
optic "Yes, sir, it's that eye"
well, Madam, that eye won't do
you any harm. It's glass eye,
Madam-only a glass eye. l hope
you'll excuse it. But, upon my
soul, I'm not surprised that even a
glass eye should feel interested in
so pretty a woman" The explana-
tion put the woman in good
humor.

useful Information than is often

publishing exhapsting treatises on
all the most important products of
the State, issuing monthly reports
during the growing months of the

difference of elevation. The Mis-
