Calling on the Governor.

]. M. D. Kelly, clerk, and Jim Hewitt
sheriff of Carroll county. came to at.
lants and determined to call on Gov
Stephens. The hall door Of the mansion
was opened, and the visitors, noticing
two men at the other end of the hall
walked in. AS they passed the thresh-
hold, they bowed and touched their hats
gracefully. The men at the lower end
of the hall did the same. 1-. tt-u
They motioned to US to go in this
parlor,' said Kelly, turning to the right
and walking in. After sitting there
awhile Hewitt said: -.:t
Are you sure that fellow told us to
come in here?'
Yes. said Kelly, but I'll go ask him
again 1.a-~ 44I
As Kelly walked out of the parlor
door he saw man walk out of door
on the same side, at the other end Of the
hall. ... .a..,.-.. ...- f.-.- .. .-.-l
Did you say go in theres' Kelly ask
ed, beckoning back into the parlor. In
stantly the man at the other end of the
hall beckoned back to the parlOr and
Kelly re-entered it. 5ir- -I ..ffs .-.s..'l %
He says right in here, Jim. I saw
him againr .., .'.. ..... ..'..
Another long wait. At last both Wis
itors got uneasy and determined to try
it again. As they walked out into the
hall, two men entered it again from the
same side lower down. Hewitt and
Kelly motioned again toward the psrlor.
Both the strange men pointed toward
the parlor. They started back. when
Kelly stopped suddenly. gszed intently
at the two men, and then shook his
head. The bald-headed man down the
hall did the same thing. He then lifted
his leg and the bsldheaded man below
did the same thing. aufr1a9 b.. 5 hl

Postal Cards.

When postal cards were. first issued,
about six years ago, their novelty pro-
voked some fault finding, and they were
made fun of as 'stingy,' shabby 'un-

people used them and the critics soon
followed the example of the people,

facturer of writing paper. ..- .,..
The little postal causes q decrease of
from twenty to fifteen million dollars
every year in the business of the wri-
ting-paper trade of this country. as{ =
Postal cards are made at HolyOks and
forty men are continually employed in
their manufacture. The card board is
furnished in packages Of three thousand
each, and every sheet is made
into forty postals. Three presses are
kept going night and day. A mschine
slits the sheets into strips of ton cards
each and these in turn are cut into sins
gle cards, dumped in piles of twenty-five
each. when they are packed by girls. in
paste-board boxes. containing i've hun

constantly on hand to see that no pill
