FOLLOWING FRIENDLY ADVICE.

Dealer Did Not Mourn.

Got n Snap On tho Bicycle, But tue
Dealer Did Not Mourn.
"Wouldnt it be good idea" said
the disinterested friend, "to put a
high grade bicycle in your window
and mark it $50 or some such price?
You'd lose some money on it, Of
course, but look at the advertising
you would get out of it. Every body in
town would be talking about it inside
of twenty-four hours, and your store
would get reputation for selling
good machines cheap that would be
worth hundreds of dollars to you."
That's not bad scheme" said the
bicycle dealer, after thinking it over,
John" he called out to one of the
boys, put that Creased Racer in tho
front window and mark it $50"
But"
Never mind arguing the matter. I
know what I'm doing"
The Creased Lightning Racer was
placed conspicuously in the show win
dow with the $50 tag appended.
Now" said the disinterested
friend, that looks some thing like it.
You'll see a crowd gathering there
inside of five minutes. By the way,
you may just consider that machine
sold. I'll take it off your hands. But
Pm no hog" he added, cheerfully.
"rll let it stay in your window till
tomorrow morning"
wasn't that rather an unhand-
some trick?" asked the silent partner.
after the disinterested friend had
gone away.
NO" reflected the dealer. THAT
machine has be N on hand two years,
but it's worth every cent of Si7. 80"
The Ink Plant.
In Colombia there grows a plant
whose popular name is the ink plant.
It's juice is a ready made ink. AT first
the writing looks reddish, but it be-
comes deep black in the course of a
few hours. 1t will not harm steel
pens; and letters written with it, il
soaked in water, even for long time,
will be quite legible when dry. The
plants are poisonous, however, SO that
this natural ink will never take the
place of the common or finger staining
hort in daily use.

n practitioner constantly before my
court for four years, and as Il brother
attorney for eight years more, and
having thus learned to known him
ms a lawyer Of the strictest integrity
and professional honor, l am
much surprised at Judge Aikens'
charge
To this Aikens answers:
"Tllat there may lie no mistake az
to my meaning. l reiterate: II the
record is as the supreme court uls-
%derstands, it has been falsiied. And
the terrific insinuations Of Judge
Palmer, coupled though it be with
his breaAiless Management, neither
explains matters o terrIlies me-"
Apparently the quarrel is over a
technically which little concerns
the public. However, the fact il
impressed ON all minds that Wilson
is entitled Ia q new trial, for these
reasons: First, Aikens' prejudices
in the matter; second, that soine Of
the witnesses were permitted togive
their opinion to the jury that they
were convinced of Wilson's guilt, a
mere opinion and which every one
can readily see ia irrelevant to a fair
trial.
Another fact is that Aikens should
be the last person on earth to kick
about technicalities.

ELK POINT, S. d., Feb. 28.-
Building and loan associations have
become very popular in late years
and have been the means Of teach
ing people Of moderate means les
sons in economy aud enabling
them to become owners Of their
bones instead Of paying rent.
Directed and managed with busl-
ntss prudence, they are great fac
tors in promoting the growth and
adding to the wealtl, Of a town or
city. No sooner were their useful
ness and popularity demonstrated
than their idea was seized upon by
spectators throughout the country
and 70 called national" associa-
tions sprang up thicker than musli-
ooms after ali autumn rain.

A Change All Around Big Prem
iu5nS for the

A Change All Around Big Prem
iurns for the Farmers.
The agricultural society Of this
county had II meeting tins week aud
decided upon new l'an for the
next county fair to I've held in the
fair. The change in premium Of
fers is Il vast one and will certainly
please the farmers. A premium of
s75 viii be offered for the best dis
play Of vegetables and grain made
by any township in the county and
S25 for the second best. For the
best display Of stock from any town
snip s75 will be given. In the de-
partments a change has been adopt
ed which will give satisfaction. For
the best bushel Of wheat $50 will be
given and $40 for second best. The
same kind Of n premium will he OF.
fered for corn aud potatoes. For n
display of fruit the premiums will
he $40 and $40, and for the best
Ave pounds Of butter $40 will be
given.
In the stock department pedi-
grees will not be consider ed. A
scrub horse that never saw a barn
will get as much consideration as
the most delicate OF the blue bloods
Of the Hamiltonian breed. Forty
dollars for the beet stallion showing
five or more colts. $25 for best stall
lion in draft stock and the same in
carriage horse and SO OH are offered.
Nohorse car get more than mi
premium. The new arrangements
are indicated from the above. What
is aimed at is To give enough III the
premium to make it worth while for
the farmer to bring his stock to the
fair.
