! nav not long ago. There is an eating
house there, and one day man who Is
said to be a good salesman, but a wholly
self made man, stopped there hoping to
eat 81 so worth OF victusiS for rs cents
and still have time to spare. Dishes are
passed about the table by young women
dressed in tight fitting bingham dresses
and a cold Slaw chrysanthemum In the
bosom OF each.
One of them had dish OF delicious
hash and asked the self made man II he
would have some. His mouth had been
little congested by trying 70 swallow
2 Quarter of pie and cup OF coffee at
the same time, so that she did not quite
understand his reply. She thought that
he wanted some, 70 she put q spoonful
gently on his plate, where there was
quite n collection OF pickles, maple
sirup. tripe and Jelly. When the hash
was placed on his plate he wished 10
show that he had been too we'll brought
up 10 eat hash, and so be empticd the
plate on the door with a cold, well bred
sir.
Then he filed his plate with another
Heterogeneous mass, which really made
the hash lying cold and stih on the door
look almost beautiful
When he came % the counter 70 pay
be handed cut five dollar oil. and the
proprietor gave hin backtw dollars.
isn't your rates little exOrbitant?"
asked the man a. be ran tOothpick IN
der his nails thoughtiuliy and removed
a prune seed from his beard.
- n n n
the dining room after your meSl," said
Joe, the proprietor.
"Well, II you would come out from
behind that counter for few moments
| would take the change out OF you"
said the man, purple with rage, as he
lightly Tipped the yolk OF soft fried
egg from the front Of his vest.
"There might be chance for me in
the meantime" said Joe aS he made
change for the file OF customers coming
out.
The man went away growing and
with his high hat, which he won on
Grants election, on the side Of his head.
At the depot Joe met the bus and SAID
to the self made man, Il am here now
to return your change, which / could
not do while waiting on my customers. s."
With that the self made man put
down his satchels and the sample OF a
washing machine which he was intro
ducing. As he put down his luggage,
and Just as be straig htened up, Joe gave
him one on the SubmaXillarY gland and
two on the bugle before he could make
the statement "Ouchm He and the
grips went rolling off the platform to-
gether. 1t took good, quick eye TO tell
which was satchel and which was self
made man.
Now" said Joe as the earnest but
self taught man ar Sc and went on the
train, wlping of. the blood with hand
ful OF cotton waste that had been taken
ont of q hotbox, ''if any one should ask
YOU where you got that nose you can
tell them that the proprietor OF The
Mackiuaw Eating House gave it to you,
whereupon be got on his bus and went
home to his duties.
This should teach US that we will do
well to keep our fore feet out OF the foOd
and not gnaw the manager while walt

The Ohio granger is not wholly lack
ing in resources, I find. he is specially
| proud OF his wagon roads about here.
I Some years ago the farmers decided to
tax all property st high rate II itiaced
on a wagon road or extended back 100
feet. As 8 great many OF these best
OHIO roads parallel the railroad tracks,
the railroad property practically aids
| materially in maintaining these roads,
| and as the law is a county or town affair
buying legislature and thus repeating
| it is out OF the question. Thus the down.
trodden farmer is greatly pleased and
! NAV be heard softly chucklng to him
self as he follows the piow BY day, or %
evening, with single, scrspeS the rich
mold feom the inner seam Of his trous-
ers below the knee, where be has sin

Marion, O., is a good tow1 but does
really need a new depot At tresent the
depot consists of Jim Fyss's I'D private
car. The waiting room is the body OF
the car, and tickets are sold in the but
ler's pantry. II the World fair should
give the railroad com1anyI good sum
mer in 1893, it may pa a addition to
the depot. Very liE7ig ia Pill De . ca
