| A lady the other day was
attracted into a store by a
good-looking boys suit she
saw in the grand window,
and was glad to get out
again with the breath in her
body. The motto of the place
seemed to be "Let no pos
slble victim get away"
Somewhere, between in
difference on the one hand
and boring a customer to
death on the other, is the
|properattitude OF a salesman.
Our people are sometimes
thought Indifferent. Doubt
less thcycrr sometimes being
human ; but we'd rather
they'd err that way than the
other. We prefer to welcome
everybody to see our things
and 60 about agrceably
without being worried, with
our people watchful and
ready to serve when called
on, but meyer intrusion. They
are not authorized to beg for
us, nor to waylay. We take
good care to have two or
three time, as many styles to
choose from as any other
house in town. It'd be a pity
if we c'dn't be content with
a hospitable, manncrly and
frank welcome to secrs, since
their seeing is of all things
our best advertisement.

The Press.

The Ledger of last week, in paying
its respects to the Pass sportively
attempted to lampoon our position
as an independent journalist. To
say that we were s'on the fence
without a party and without a rooster
is something brilliant and sparkling
for the Ledger, and was no doubt,
intended to be cutting and severe.
But unfortunately, the ed tor missed
his aim, and what he intended as II
witty pasquinade, resulted in II COM
pliment as unexpected by us, as it
was unintentlonal in him. 1t was an
unfortunate mistake in him to con-
trast u position with his. Yes,
We are (if you like the expressinn)
''on the fence" at least, we enjoy a
more elevated position that enables
US to look down with complacence on
tae position of the parasites of
cliques, cringrng beneath the party
lash. Our position enables us to do
our W Growing without the aid of
a rooster. We do not envy the
position of the LEDGER at all. Being
an acknowledge tool of a party it is
necessarily biased In all its utteran-
ces, subordinate in its character,
and its department subject to the
party lash. On the other hand the
position of the Press unbiased un.
shackled, Indifferent and indepen.
dent and stands willing that the
public shall judge between us whose
position Is suited to educate the pop
ular mind aright.-Audraia Press.
Some people are born asses, others
happened to be asses, others have the
qualities of asses forced upon them,
still others acknowledge, withou,
knowing why, that they are asses.

Mexico in Twenty Years.


If one Of our citizens, would turn
Rip Van Wrinkle and go up on some
of the Auxvasse hills and sleep the
allotted 20 years, everything would
be different when he awoke. Mexico
would have several large wholesale
houses and perhaps a few manufac-
tories. We would have a new and
handsome union depot. The old
business men would be gathered to
their fathers and the young men would
be running the machine. VIM. Beck
would have built a brick and plate
glass front on his ''vacant lot" on
the east side of the square, and the
city would have a handsome council
chamber on the new site. There
might be rock roads in the country
and street cars in the town. Barnes
& Lakenan's addition would be full
of fine dwellings and there would be
blocks Of business houses clear to the
railroad. In fact when the modern
Rip walked back nearly everything
would be changed except that Mexico
would have no creamery, neither gas
Or water and the fire company would
be pulling the same old engine.

4 Runaway Match.

D. A>oais fost-DSpafch, 2fse Inst
Among the marriage licenses issued
by Recorder Farreny to-day was one
authorizing the union Of Mr.. Louis
Kreutz and Miss Jennie Mayfeld.
Both the young people arrived in this
city from Fulton, Mo-, where they
reside. this morning. Mr.. Kreutz is q
very estimable young business man
OF that place ani Miss Mayfield is the
daughter Of one of its oldest citizens.
The courtship has been somewhat
p%rotracted on account Of the young
lady's parents, who took the ground
that, being ~Israelites, they could not
consistently consent to the union OF
their daughter to any Gentle, for
Mr.. Kreutz is a Christian. It was a
realization of the fact that the oppo-
sition would never be Withdrawn that
induced the young gentleman and
lady to give their friends in Fulton
the slip and seek a marriage license in
st. Louis. Both of them being OF
age a license was readily granted by
the Recorder and this afternoon Mss
Mayfeld becomes Mrs. Kreutz.

A WhOpDer.


A farmer tells the following as a true
fact:-''He had a choice hen setting on
nineteen eggs. One morning, on paying
the hen a visit, he found that she had
left the nest, and he soon perceived that
q large black snake had curled itself
within the nest. Upon seeing this, the
gentleman stepped back, gathered a stick
and killed the snake. On cutting off the
head of the snake he took it by the tail
shaking it over the nest, the nineteen eggs
dropped into the nest. The eggs being
left in b nest, the hen returned t her
seat, and in due time she had Matched
eighteen little chickens, said by those
who have seen them to be rare curiosi-
ties. This popularity is noticed in the
little chickens, as being afraid of every
stick they see, running back from a stick
in the greatest terror, uttering the cry Of
fear. Why is this fear--does a stick re-
semble a snake? These little things are
a study for ~naturalists, and sometimes
truth is stranger than fiction.

Prohibition In Vermont.


States in the west that are consid-
erlng the possibility Of prohibition
may find some interesting precedents
in the history Of the experiment in
Vermont. 1t has lasted there thirty
years, and each new legislature has
added some provision to the law,
which now contains over one hundred
sections Of the most stringent char.
acter. The latest even empowers
officers to enter private houses and
search for liquor without a search
warrant. Nevertheless, the number
of places where liquor is openly solo
steadily increases, until now there il
one to every 745 of the population,
not counting hotels, clubs, etc.
