A Thirty Years Dispute Settled by a
Game of Seven Up.

The Clarksburg correspondent of
the Register says: For number of
years Conrad H. Ash and Edmund
Southern have been on unfriendly
terms, and met for the first time,
when John W. Bailey was surveying
the land in the Ash Morrison eject
ment suit, when it became necessa-
ry that a disputed corner between
their land should be located. Both
remained silent awhile, when at last
Ash broke the monotony by saying
to Southern, II have a proposition
to make you. / will throw heads
and tails as to whether you or |
drive the stake" Southern replied:
"He did not know what his luck was
at heads and tails but that he would
play him game of seven.up, best
two out of three, as to who should
settle the dispute" The game ac-
cordingly was played. Southern,
being successful, drove the stake.
The corner was finally located, after
thirty years of controversy, result
ing in the future friendship of the
parties, the avoidance of cost, litiga-
ton and the chances, and troubles
incident thereto. Let others go and
do likewise, and the lawyers will
have less to do and the people be
more content and happy.

means they may become better ac-
uuainted with the details of the match
less piano produced by Messrs. Hallet

firm makes the claim, which stands
undisputed, that they have spent more
money, and accomplished more. in
scientific research in the direction of
of building mp the piano Of today, than
any other maker. Intending pur-
chasers should not fail to correspond
with them. Catalogues will be mailed
free to all who ask tor them. Address

melancholy to please even those who
fancy literature of the sort which that
book is sample. Although inane and
silly, {" A Prodigal Father" was i'm
mensely better because it gave the
leading actors a chance to spread them
selves. Harry q. keenan, as the AW-
full Dad" was fine, to say the least.

Storing Potatoes.

\ perfect store place is capable of be-
ing kept quite dark and cool, but quite
safe from frost. Therefore il should be
at least partially under the ground level,
n being the easiest way of keeping frost
at bay. Ii stOIed in sheds, they should
not be put into large masses directly
they are lifted, for they are liable To
generate more warmth than is good for
them, but if spread out rather thinly at
first, they may, after a fortnight, be
placed much thicker without any harm.
But where large quantities have 10 be
kept through the winter shere is no
better plan than placing them in
mounds, according To The Gardeners
Magazine, which advises as follows:
Select place little above the gem
eral level, 80 n to be quite safe from
flooding after heavy rains, and having
marked out the space required, put i'm
good layer of straw. Proceed 70 pack
the potatoes into a eOnical long heap,
cover with straw, and then place a suf-
ficient thickness Ofsoil to keep out frost,
and beat it down 50 firm and smooth
that the rain will run oil into the trench
surrounding it. The top should not be
quite closed up until severe frost rem
ders il necessary 10 do so.
