"Four dollars"
Have you got cord on there?"

called out

''No."
I'LL give you three and half in sill

Well, guess I'll take it, and I'd as

He drove six blocks with o grin on

She placed fourteen silver quarter dol.

hurried off as he saw her looking over

all that they have had to suffer in conse-

AN Iowa farmer, who has both coal
and wood on his farm, warns his house
with cornstalks, and clair,s that they
make the best and cheapest fuel that he
can get. He uses a large stove, and
burns the stalks in tightly-bound bum
dies, weighing about forty pounds each.
A bundle burns three hours without
fame) in an alright stove. The large
stove offers so much radiating surface
that the stove does not need to be very
hot Five bundles day, or 600 for the
winter, suffice to keep the stove going
and the room warm. The farmer, Mr..
Ruggles, says: II can bind up 900 bun
dies in.two days alone. couldn't chop
the wood to warm this room III a week.
Then in the Spring l have load of
ashes for my wheat-feld, while my neigh
bors have to cut up the same cornstalks
in the Spring to get them away from the
harrow. It makes me smile when hear
about people up in Minnesota who have

Annual Convention Of the Western Conn
mercial Travelers' .EOSd
Financial Showing.
ST.. LOUIS, Dec 26-The Western Com
mercial Travellers association commenced
its fifth annual convention at the Lindell
hotel to-day. Over 100 members we're
present from all parts of the West. Geo.
Balm, ex-president of the st. Louis mer-
chants exchange, made an address to the
convention and President Trask followed
with an annual address in which he viewed
the years work of the association,
showing it has made great pro-
gress and was in splendid fnan-
cial and working condition. The reports
of the secretary and treasurer followed, an
interesting feature of which was the state
ment that eight death benefits, averaging
$1,000 each, had been paid to families
of deceased members, and the funds had
increased largely during the past year.
The general fund had also grown, and the
financial condition of the association where
the membership had increased some 800
members during the year, was shown to be
most satisfactory.
Isaac R. Trask was reelected president.
John j. Gilmore secretary and treasurer,
andisix members of the association dele
gates to the national convention.
