EDITOR JOURNAL As all are in
terested in having one Of the best
fairs ever held in this county, and
sCater is one Of the most important
articles towards making It a success,
IL is hoped the County Commissioners
will accept the generous offer Of the
Sslina Water Works Company, to
furnish free at cost all the water they
can use this year. for two fountains,
stock Of all kinds, sprinkliDg the
streets and lawn and ali they need for
every purpose, If the county will be at
the expense Of putting in the pipes
and fountains, which will be less than
tlCO hundred dollars. Then It will be
there for all time and they will not be
obliged to pay out forty or fifty dol
lars each year for wells and pumps,
besides the ease and comfort to all, to
have plenty of good pure water by
simply turning a faucet. There Is no
tDdy to please so many people at so little
expense.

An EDITORS TROUSERS

AN EDIT0RlS TROUSERS. -
An editor in Chicago recently or
dered a pair of trousers from the
tailor On trying them on they
proved to be several inches too long.
1t beiRgl late ON Saturday night, the
faiier's shop was closed, and the
editor took the trousers to his wife
and askedshers To- cut thems off and
hem them over. The good lady,
whose dinner had perhaps disagreed
with her, brusquely refused. The
same result followed an application
to the wife's sister and to the eldest
daughter. But before bedtime the
wife relenting, took the pants, and
cutting off six inches from the legs,
hemmed them up nicely and restor-
ed them. to the cleset Half an hour
after her daughter taken with COM
Function for her unfilial conduct,
took the trousers, and cutting Off
six inches hcmmcd and replaced
them. Finally, the sister-in- law
felt the pangs Of conscience, and
she too performed an additional sur
gical operation on the garment.
When the editor appeared at blAeaH-
