Mr. Abner Jennings was never known
to say a harsh thing to or about any

mild, and exaggerated statements were
viewed by him as almost as reprehensi-
BILE as lies Once, In the spring Of the
year, when the Blueville roads were In
q fearful condition Of mud and miro, the
team Of a travelling merchant was
stalled q short distance from Mr.. Jen-
nings' house. The old man at once
brought out his oxen and went to tho
peddler's assistance.
The team could not be instantly re-
leased even with the aid Of the yoke OF
oxen, and the peddler, who was man
Of high temper and little self control
proceeded 20 vent his rage In Language
which first amazed and then disgusted
the equabls Mr.. Jenninga He bore IL
as long as he thought was necessary and
proper and then unhitched his oxen and
went calmly home

Too Economical.

The tourist on his tour Is among us, and
included in the number are many refined
and cultivated Americans of the sort one
Of the civilization of tho northern republic.
But as ON the "eentinong" there are tour
lists and tourists, SO here one encounters
some rare and entertaining specimens.
In an interior city a week ago met,at
q little hotel an American travelling for
his health who spent his time endeavor-
ing to economize his cash. He passed two
hours one night devising how he might
walk to the station ut q. m. and SO save
10cents car fare Howas o great big econ
omizer and had digested @P Poor Richard's g
Almanac" A penny saved was penny
earned. That his hotel did not furnish
him with matches worried this poor Rich
ard. Three cents out of dollar that he
had given o waiter to got him abox of
matches completely unstrung him, and his
nerves became entangled like telephone
wires In tho line gale. He talked to me
sadly and in deep, husky voice for 15
minutes regarding this abuse. Then he
had row with the waiter and how it
would have resulted do not know had I
not informed him that the wniter In ques-
tion was the man who was to call him at
$3.50 to catch his train, and that possibly
the waiter might purposely oVersleep him
self.
"Another day in this hotel which does
not furnish matches?" he cried. II eau
not stand thatl" I hinted that dime
given then and there to the waiter might
serve as awinding up of his internal alarm
clock, butmy poor Richard did not see 1t.
This man, who missed all the charming
sights Of o very interesting city because he
used up his time in discussing petty
charges, Is a type Of sort of man who
should never travel. He looked frank and
honest, but he was "clus ez the bark to a
