Most Popular Farmer.

Thomas Fouke, we'll known te
most OF orr readers in Audrain coun.
sy, who travels for the Greely-Bu Burn
ham Grocer Co., was in Mexico to-
day and left tickets for the most
popular farmer in Audrain to at
end the pure food exhibit of that
company on the second floor of the
Exposition. Admission to this ex-
hibit will be entirely by invitation OF
admission tickets. The Greedy
25urnham Grocer Co., in a letter re-
ierring to this matter, says:
Refreshments, including coffee,
tea, chocolate and many attractive
kinds of cooked food, relishes, del
icaeies, etc. will be constantly serv-
ed free of charge.
The intention is to have an at
tractive boudoir where ladies can
rest after the fatigues of sightseeing,
and refresh themselves, and feel
that their presence is most welcome.
The difficulty in regard to food
exhibits heretofore given at the Ex-
position has been that there has
been no discrimination as to who
should participate in the distribution
OF samples, etc. In this case, adj
mission being by ticket, ladies can
feel assured they will have not only
a pleasant place in which to rest
and gratuitous refreshments, nicely
served, but that the company they
will meet will be such as will be not
only unobjectionable but desirable"
