There lives IN one of the finest coun
ties Of Kentucky an aristocratic old
gentleman, vino, though brave at a
time Of physical trouble, has never sue
ceeded in summoning sufficient courage
to shove him into the reCklessness of
paying a debt
Once the Colonel was in debt 10 a
grocer that lived In a neighboring vii
lage. lie must have been a new conner,
for none of the "old.tmers would
trust the old gentleman. One morning
lust after the Colonel had sat down on
the gallery to smoke, the grocer came
TO the gate and shouted "Halloal'
Get down and come right in, sub, "
The Colonel called, getting UP and cor.
daily advancing to meet the visitor
u am delighted to see you this bright
morning said the host, when he had
shown the grocer into the house
You don't know me, | reckon the
grocer responded, giving the old man a
peculiar look out Of his keen eyes of
trade
ooh, most assurcdly You are the
grocer
"You bet. Did you get that blll-or.

"None that can see

II don't mind giving you the reason.
The reason appears TO be that you u
not get the money. Now look here,

with favor on the methods Of life es

your rules and | have mine, but be
cause our rules differ II IS no reason fol

What does n slight advance In the
price of a few luxuries Of foreign man
ufacture amount TO as compared with
the millions OF dollars that will be
saved on sugar Mansfield News
What, now Billy CappellarP You
admit there will Hbe an advance In
prices. Why, how can that be, II the
foreigner pays the taxp But don't you
know that the reduction on sugar will
be lost sight Of 10 the increases on the
other articles. Here Is specimen Of
how II works:
Ohio Is o rich and prosperous state,
| situated In a comparatively cold part
Of the country, and the consumption Of
wooden goods by It's people is far above
the average. It is, therefore, quite GER
tain that for every pound Of wool pro
duced In that State two pounds or more
are consumed In the form Of clothing
worn by the people aud other woolen
fabrics used by them. Consequently
we have III this bill a proposition 10
compel the people Of that State to pay
hisE taxes On at least 10 pounds OF
wool contained In the woolen goods
they buy in an attempt to raise the
price of 0pounds Of wool they produce
and tho aisproportiSA between the
actual bErdsh' imposed and the sup.
posed benefit cstlferred is' even greater
than this in h,ostof the OTHER states Of
the Union.
