be pardoned for little self complacency
when she sees her name inscribed high

There have been direful stories told in
various newspapers about the squabbles
among the lady managers" of the board.
Somebody has tainted somebody else,
and there has been bursting into tears.

is distressing that the angelic example
set in the years past by men on all kinds
of committees should have gone for

scold and cry-if they did. Still, gen

Rather Sour For "a Little Girl.

Midget WAS such il very busy little
person that she could never see anything
lying on the table in her reach without
handling and sometimes tasting it. One
day her mother had left IN open pack

sooner did she turn her back when
Midget put Il large lumpin her mouth.
When her mother turned around, the
little girl said, with a very wry face,

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
Tho Water Trick.

The trick will explain calls for two
glasses, one of which must have water
i'll it. Put the one containing the water
at your left hand and cover it with q
piece of cardboard. Beside it, at your
right hand, is an empty glass just like
the first one in shape and size. You now
invite some person on your side of the
table to make the water glass appear on
the right and the empty one on the left
The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1893-08-19

without touching or moving either glass
or allowing any one else to do so. After
they have given up this problem you
hold your hands near the glasses to show
that the water is on the left, and by
simply passing around the table and fac
ing the glasses from that side you have
the water OH your right. This is simple
and easy, but it will cause laugh. Big
bets have been won and lost OH more
trivial tricks than this little one.

they inhabit ponds. Just take light

the light until some one on the bank can

There have been men OF whom Vic
tor Hugo would have said They
conspire whenever they respire. But
be this as il may, politics should not
enter into this convention, which
should be free, open and above board.
This is a measure for the people, and
the people should be allowed voice.
Statehood, with the FIVE Indian ma.

want what every fair minded citizen
wants and will agitate. Nothing else

the Kingfisher convention to work
