A GIRL AND A LOT.


ter ana Got Both.
E. A. Long one of the Atlantic City re-
presentatives of d. l.. Risley, the Phil
adelphia real estate agent, took q good
looking young man over to Pleasant
vile the other day to show him the
building lots for sale.
While walking through the town the
two espied an unusually pretty girl tripp-
ing along.
The handsome stranger looked at the
girl and their eyes met.
That one look turned the currant of
two young lives, novelist would say,
but the newspaper reporter only AYERS
that they passed each other without
speaking.
Half an hour after IL o'clock Mr. Long
and his friend dlned, upon invitation
with one OF the prominent families of
Pleasantville and when they were ush-
cred into the dining room there was
the fair maiden they had encountered in
the morning walk.
She was the daughter of the host. In
Productions were followed by dinner
and the young man and the young lady
became fast friends.
That afternoon the handsome visitor
bought two lots in PleasantAilIe, but Mr..
Long returned here alone.
The faternal parents seeing the way
the tide was drifting, had invited the
visitor to prolong his visit and he accept
ed and before midnight he was accept
ed. Before the chimes OF Yuletide ring
the merry wedding bells will tinkle.
As the young lady is an only daughter
and a very attractive daughter, too,
and as her father is wealthy, the young
man won quite prize on lot buying
trip. There are othersl

True Facts About RiSley's Farm
Lands I'm New Jersey.


There are number of well meaning
people who laugh at the idea OF Jersey
farms. The truth is no one State has
every advantages. We do not claim for
Risley more productive land or better
land than can be found in some other
States. Our main advantage is that the
ground being near to markets, and early
and warm by nature with mild, regu-
lar coast climate, makes it very desirable
land for raising poultry, fruit of all
kinds and trucking. In fact, it is an
ideal poor mans country. Let those
who deride Jersey land remember that,
according to the statistics of the Agri-
cultural bureau of the United States,
land in New Jersey averages more per
acre in value than in any other State
and all it needs is intelligent labor and
perseverance to transform our woods
into broad fields of truck and orchards.

The Frenchmen have amused them

urous. has given his impressions of the
American stage. They are unCOmmOnly
interesting. The article appeared in the
Paris Figaro and is quoted by the ORA

is in a peculiar phase of its existence"
writes the French journalist. sit is al
most entirely given up to sensation. Art
of course has no place there. The most
successful pieces are those IN which
there is some blood curdliug effect, such,
for instance, as tying the hero to buzz
saw or having the heroine crushed by an
elevator Naturally, under such con-
ditlOns, the country can produce no ac-
tors. The performers must suit the
style of play. SO it is that the actors
most in favor are those who have acted
sensational parts in real life. such as
cracksmen, burglars, anarchists, MUIR

Five hundred Dutchmen are about
to invade Maryland in body and take
up their abode in that fertile and hos

doubt will, welcome them. They bring
with them industry, thrift, good morals
and kindly manners, and no class of i'm
migrants could be more desirable.
Maryland is much better behaved State
than some of its sister Commonwealth
at the South, and there is no reason to
apprehend that the newcomers will not
meet with kindly and courteous wei

will bring prosperity with them wherev-
