Close Competition in the West.
Boston Record,

Speaking of close competition, the his
torian is reminded of case out West that
probably came as near bringing business
down to hard pan as anything that Mass
achusetts dealers are familiar with. Two
rival general dealers" struck a new town
with their commercial curiosity shops the
same day, and each set about running out
the other. They dealt in every sort of
goods needed to supply the wants of a
primitive community. One of the dealers,
in order to completely put his competitor
to rout, announced that he would give a
free drink of whisky with every purchase.
and the business came pouring in.
There hove upon the dealers vision one
afternoon a venerable female, whe pro
ceeded to unroll from her pocket hand
kerchief, with much impresiveness, a
single hens egg, which she laid upon the
counter.
"What are you givin for eggs?" said she
'Twenty-ive cents a Dozen"
"Well, that's little over 2 cents
apiece" said the old women. "What are
you g1ttin' for darninneedles?
"a cent apiece"
"Three for cents, I suppose. Well
take this 'ere egg and give me three darn
in-needles.''
''Now for the drink" said the old wo-
man.
The bottle and tumbler were set out
and the old woman poured liberal por-
ton into her glass.
II say, stranger" said she, II don't like
whisky nohow without without an egg In
it. Break one in, will your"
The dealer shrugged his shoulders and
broke into the woman's glass the egg
that she had just Graded" for. And
behold, as he did so two yolks fell into
the whisky.
''Hooryw said the old woman, as she
drank off the contents of the glass. "It's
a double-yolked egg. Now give me three
more darnin' needles, please, for the
extra yolk."
The dealer passed out the three extra
needles with sublime resignation, and the
old woman sat around as if she were
waiting for something.
81 say, stranger" she said finally, "yoI
don't call them last three darnin' needles

The dealer reached for his gun and the
woman disappeared through the door.

over election. The next morning Elmina
insisted on going in to get the result. The

her in dismay. Those chores were to ride

home again before we would miss him.
Elmina was defeated by a few votes, sand
we both think to this day that Theodore
helped to swell the adverse MAORI ty, al
though he never would tell who he voted
for. EImina's, expense for the campaign
and election were large, and her husband
had to borrow money and give mort
gage on his property to secure it, but he
never uttered single reproach, and [ do
not think he begrudged the money. His
wife says that she could not live through
another canvas with its excitements and
rivalry.
