When you are young,
And love Is young,
And we are young together,
No hearts are wrunS,
But raptures sung,
And 1t Is gladstone weather!
When you are old,
And love is old,
And we are old together,
Will hearts be cold,
And loves tale told,
And it be drcary weather?

THE JoBB1NG CENTER.
A Wichita Firm Outtids Other Cities on South
west Missouri Business.

Yesterday and last night McComb Bros. ;
big wholesale saddlerv and harness house
was busy in packing for shipment
very large bill of goods, covering
fifteen order sheets and amounting
to several thousand dollars. which
they were preparing to ship to Mr..
James Dodwell, who is just opening large
retail house in Carthage, Missouri. The
bill includes everything which could be
suggested as part of the stock of first
class retail house in as large city as Car
image 1t includes his entire stock and is
the very best to be had. All of the work
was done by McComb Bros own workmen
and is as good as any in the country. This
feature, in connection with the fact that
the Wichita firm offered him better prices
than any of the Kansas City, Chicago, st.
Louis, St. Joseph or Atchison firms, which
bid for the bill, induced Mr.. Dodwell to
buy of McComb Bros
The jobbing trade of this house is better
now than ever before. There are now
upon their books more orders for goods to
be delivered by February first than they
can possibly fill promptly by that time.
Among some of their recent large orders
from southwest Missouri. in which sec
ton, by the way, Wichita jobbing houses
are doing good line of business, they
have bill of over five pages for new
stock in Green Ridge, Mo.

ClL. BANS LECTURE.

The temperance lecture of Col. Geo. W.
Balm, Sunday afternoon was one of the
most eloquent and convincing presenta-
lions of that important topic 70 which q
Wichita audience ever had the pleasure of
listening. Col. Balm mere than sustained
his well earned national ana in fact,
world renowned reputation as an oratorand
delighted those who were fortunate enough
to hear him. No more could have heard
him than did, unless a much larger audi
forum had been procured.
One wear ago, or so, Col. Bain visited
Wichita and he then was greatly surprised
at its wonderful developement. Now,
however, his amazement at the renlarka-
bic ndvancements of a substantial and
lasting character in Wichita is unbound
ed. He says that in all of his travels
throughout the United States and Europe
there is no city witch can in any way COM
pare with Wichita in the matter of rapid
and substantial growth.

THE WORLD TONIGHT.

OF J. Y. Little's World" Mr.. Morris,
the manager, informs us that his stage
machinist has just perfected patents, SO
that all the scenery used here can be carried
and produced through the provinces, and
on scale of magniiicence equal to its pro-
duction here. Heretofore this World"
has been solely metropolitan production.
and we may safely say it might live here
forever, but Manager Morris is determined
to spread his popularity and guarantees to
produce all the scenes the same as at the
Lee Avenue theatre; wherever his COM
pany appears to do this it necessitates the
carrying of two sets of scenery, each set
made to telescope, so that after viewing
the models which were kindly shown us
by the theatrical magnate, we are i'm
pressed with the fact that Mr.. Morris can
produce every scene of this beautiful and
wonderful play on piano box as clearly
as he does on the large stage. We have
DO doubt but that the raft and sinking
ship, and oGher mechanical scenes Will
find as many admirers in the provinces as
IT, has in New York and Brooklyn
