Tale OF Two Wheeling Tourists at Atlantic
City.
A wholesale and retail grocer OF this
city are two congenial spirits who left
on the last Panhandle excursion for
Atlantic City. They have been doing
the seaside resorts together for several
years, and as both are practical jokers.
there is always an old score TO settle
when they meet in their annual pleas
ure expeditions.
This time the retail grocer felt that
he owed a debt to his companion. They
had been flirting with Neptune for sew
eral days before he found an opportuni-
w. At last IL came. His friend went
up to the room which they occupied to-
gether, one morning, and stretched
across the bed for quiet nap. Then
pair of scissors was produced, and the
handsome mOustache, which had won
the heart of more than one fair damsel,
was clipped of close TO the lip, but on
one side of the face only. When the
wholesale grocer swoke, about an hour
latter, he looked at his watch and found
that il was time for the midday meal.
His friend preceded him to the dining
room OF the hotel, and prepared all the
guests for the fun that was to follow.
The victim walked into the room, and
took his place at the table. BE noticed
the general litter over the room, and
fancied that people were looking at
him. Finally he asked his neighbor the
cause OF the general merriment. "Oh,
all the guests are tipsy. There's been
general toot," was the reply. When
he finished his meal, he walked up TO
the clerk and asked him the cause OF
the commotion. The clerk feigned dis
gust, and replied that every guest in
the house was ION jag
1t was a half hour later when he en-
tered the bar, and after getting outside
OF glass Of fosming lager, started to
wipe the foam from his moustache, that
he discovered that he was the victim OF
practical joke. The next morning
his friend found several toads In bed
with him, and honors are about even.

Always on Top.

Nothing has attracted so much atten-
ton or caused so much comment among
wholesale and retail druggists this year
as the enormous sales of Hoods Sarsap-
arilla.
The demand for this medicine has al
ways been large and increasing, so that
Hoods Sarsapsrilla has been as staple
an article in every store where medi-
cines are sold as camphor or epson
salts.
Hoods Sarsaparilla has always been
the "leader."
But this year 1t has far outstripped
iss own record, and its sales have eI-
eeeded the predictions Of the most san
guine prophets.

THE STORY OF AN dfEM"
The Roundabout Course Taken by a
Piece OF on News to Get Into the
"Intelligencer."

The Roundabout Course Taken by
Piece OF OH News to Get Into the
"Intelligencer."
Possibly the InteEligencer will learn
in time. as nearly everyone In this COM
munity, or In West Virginia and East
ern Ohio, for that matter, has already
learned, that 1t pays to read the REGIS
TER.
The REGISTER Is good paper;
very good paper, and prints the news
while IL Is new.
This soliIoquy is induced by reading
in the Inteili9encer OF Saturday
special telegram dated st Petersburg,
about the finding Of gas and oil in the
Fluharty aud Shenango wells, up Fish
ing creek, 10 Wetzel county.
The history of this telegram Is inter
esting to newspaper people al least.
On Thursday, the REGISTERS special
correspondent at New MArtlnsville sent
to this paper full details OF the finding
of oil in these wells. This appeared 10
the REGISTER without date or special
line, they being unnecessary to estAo-
lish the authenticity OF news printed In
the REGISTER.
Fridays REGISTER reached Parkers-
burg before 10 a. m. and the Parkers-
burg State Journal, knowing q good
thing when IL saw IL. but not possessing
in q we'll developed degree that sense OF
honor which customsriiy prompts news
papers TO credit news clipped from their
contemporaries, printed IL after cutting
out one paragraph.
The Parkers0urg correspondent OF
the Iatelli0encer, with laudaoie desire
70 stretch his "string" and increase his
monthly stipend, read the stolen item
in the Journal. He was deceived into
the belief that the news had been dis
covered by the Journal, as the Journal
intended that its readers should be. de
knew the Journal would not be seen In
the Intelligencer office till after the tel
egram was printed, so he telegraphed
the article as he found 1t.
The intelligencer people, through lack
OF appreciation OF the generally eonceed-
ed fact that the REGISTER prints all the
news, had not read the REGlsTER, so
they swallowed the story as new and
printed il twenty-four hours after
ninty-nine one hundredths Of the people
of Wheeling and vicinity had read 1t In
the REGISTER.
Moral: Read the REGISTER; 1t Is
good paper and prints the news.

The dishonest attempts Of partisan
Republican organs to credit the pres
ent lack OF confidence in the stability
Of our currency TO "iear Of Democratic

World points ont, Il is obviously false
claim for these reasons:
1. BY far the greater number OF the
unemployed have not been engaged in
the protected industries. The decrease
Of activity is caused, as all candid bust
ness men agree, by monetary dis
trust. due to fear Of the lapsing Of the
