the part OF fair one and atriumphant smile
on the features OF the salesman. His Chess
terrified mannerisnl, heavenly blue eyes and
Irresistible attractions were Q barrier that
the old sweetheart could not tear down
and the result is, that the rejected suitor
went to pastures new where he will wreak

the event will transpire ere the leaves OF

Wool and Harmony.

Two hundred and fifteen of the most
influential of the wooden manufacturers
of the country, mostly from New Eng
land, have sent a petition to congress
asking for the importation of wool free.
The farmers of the west declare they
are going to have trace chains, blankets
and manufactured clothing brought into
the country free. or know the reason
why.
The farmers of Ohio cry aloud that
the duty on wool must be raised higher,
much higher, without distinction of
party; then the poor farmer can at least
pay the interest on the mortgage on his
land. When Ohio men want thing,
the country finds it out.
The farmers of New England don't
care to any great extent whether wool is
imported free or not, since they are not
sheep farmers. But they would like to
see justice done in respect to getting
manufactured articles cheaply. There
fore they want the duty taken off such
articles as the New England farmer finds
necessary to his comfort
Congress will hardly dare to neglect
entirely the petition of the wool manu-
features. But how, then. about the Ohio
farmers and the rest?

Man About Town, THAT the, daily press
of the country is beginning to agitate as
a means of doing away with the evil of
drunkenness remedy which l advo-
Gated several years ago. My idea was
to build at public expense asylumS where
drunkards could be sent and kept in con-
finement until pronounced permanently
cured by a competent physician. 1t was
my opinion that these institutions should
be maintained by money secured through
a tax levied on the keepers of saloons,
and do not believe that there is one
saloon keeper out of a hundred who
would not favor such plan. Such in
situations, properly conducted, with a
law requiring the confinement therein Of
every man detected in state of intoxi-
cation would, think, go far toward
bringing about an abatement of the evil.
1t would cause a large percentage of the
haen who now make practice of getting
drunk to hesitate before making the ven
ture. had even gone SO far as to draft
a bill embodying the provisions outlined
above, with the intention of having it
introduced in the legislature, but at the
earnest solicitation of a few friends, who
deemed it an unwise measure, allowed
the matter to drop, although felt then
and still feel that it would be good
thing for the state to have some such
law in operation. st. Louis Republic

\ San Francisco newspaper offered
5000 to the one who would correctly
guess the number of types in a jar ex-
hibited in the exposition there. Two men
were successful. naming the correct
number, $4,000. How they came to hit
on that number is interesting, One of
them once guessed the number of shot in
a jar about the same size as the one con-
tanning the type. There were $4,000. He
thought there were one-third as many
type as shot, and so divided $4,000 by 8,
and he said, ''added little to make it
even" The other man saw a crowd
around the jar, and felt in his pocket for
a pencil with which to write his number.
He couldn't find one, and moved on: but
afterwards, feeling strongly impelled to
make a guess, felt again for pencil,
and found an old lottery ticket, on
which was the number $4,000. He bor-
rowed a pencil, put down the number,
and won S100.-Inland Printer.
