HOW TWO SONS COT THEIR FATHER INTO
NEW BUGGY.
Old Tom Barretts sons were the young swells Of the
big country town where they were brought up but old
Tom himself still retained tenaciously all the I'M
couth manners Of his younger days, when the broad
acres of his homestead cleaned with wheat where the
Town Hall now stood. Long rows OF stores and
houses were standing where old Tom had once grubbed
pine stumps and pOughed his burrows. And still the
land was his. So he rich, and yet he was sight
to look at.
He had saved every penny for so many years that
spending money almost pain to him, but the warm
old heart that beneath his shaggy exterior pre-
vented him from being mean TO his sons. He educated
Them set them up in business admired them, and was
willing to do almost anything for Them except to give
up his old ways wear respectable clothes.
One day the boys decided to play little game on
him. The buggy he drove about the town was alb
soutey dsgraceful and he would not buy another or
allow the boys to present one to him. He was eX-
ceedngly fond Of bargain however, and his sons knew
1t. They accordingly arranged with carTiage-maker
to sell stylish $500 buggy to their father for S73.
They paid the difference themselves. The next day
one of the boys mentioned casually to the old that
Smith, the carriage maker had had 300 buggy thrown
back on his hands by disconnected customer, and he
was willing to sell it dirt cheap" Then they both
Joined in begging him TO go and buy 1t, and not
disgrace the family any longer by driving around In
such disreputable ana rdnlsnaclNe conveyance
Finally the old man consented to look at IL, and
perhaps buy it, If he got 1t at great bargain The
price asked only $75, surprised and pleased him 50
that he bought the buggy on the spot, and delighted
ms bows by driving about in II everywhere.
Before many DAYS, however, they were shocked TO
see the horrible old buggy out again. and their father
coming toward them In It, with wide grin his face.
For goodness sake, father. why have You brought

the browning exhibition OF the year.
Take time by the forelock, and begin
now, if necessary. TO prepare so that
as an exhibitor Or visitor, you can
devote the necessary time TO it. with
out interfering with other cares that
may command you, SO that you can
lay aside all else for two or three
days. and spend the time in relaxa-
ton nd recreation amid the exhil-
Grating, rejuvenatiRg and life-len-
gthenlng sensations of meeting and
shaking old friends by the hand and
witnessing the unexcelled exhibition
of mans inventions and natures
productions.
We invite you to our fair again
because we wish to impress it upon
your mind that it will be to your in.
terest to attend. AS heretofor e,
there will be many fairs in the couD
try this year. A few may be larger
than ours, most of them will be
smaller, but none will be stronger in
inviting features, more diversified in
extent and scope, richer in rare ex
hibits, purer in entertainments, excite
more attention ana curiosity, or be
more intently interesting to the
visitor. The managers will be mind
full of exhibi ion features and expend
all needful effort to secure big show,
besides they will make such reasena-
BILE provisions for the comtors of their
patrons that the fair will not only be
instructive but entertaining and en-
joyable.
The society, through its managers,
desires to again express its sense OF
gratitude to it's many friends and
patrons for the support SO freely ex
tended to its past exhibitions, an en-
enlargement and manifestation Of con
fdence without which it would be i'm
possible to make fair profitable. and
in renewing this invitation are not
unmlndful of the obligation it owes
to the generosity of the people in
former years

time to save his horses, which were
stabbed in an adjoining shed. The
loss was great and not cent of IN

The evidences are strong that the
fire was the work of an incendiary.

Mr.. ED1ToR:-Has the ex-Mavor

The matter has been standing long
enough and should be closed.
Now, let a statement be made and
published. 1t is due the tax PAYERS
of this town. CITIZEN.
Why?
That's the question now.
Why?
Well, the only reason why, so far
as the FISHERMAN & FARMER has
been able to learn, is that q report has
not been made neither do we think
there ever will be one made.
It is true the matter has been
standing long enough, and report
should be made anu Published, but,
what will it be when it is ma lie.
That's the question.
What?
If we understand the matter cor
recty the whole thing res here:
What has passed goes
What has been collected no one
knows.
What has become of the city funds
will never be known.
And now the only thing remains to
be done is simply for the present
Board of Aldermen to kick the carcus
to smell the stink, if nothing more.
The peoples money has been spent
and the people want to know how it
was spent, and as long as the matter
remains unreported, or as long as the
tax payers of this town fail to get a
satisfactory explanation, just so long
somebody's management looks black
looks dirty.
Now this is plain stuff, but as
long as the FISHERMAN Il FARMER
has constitutional right to speak its
mind, it proposes under all circum-
stances to speak it.
The people have right to know
what has become of the money not
reported, and they should know.
Even if it cannot be recovered
something should be dole-and
something should be done at once.
Kick the carcus and let it smell.
