A GAY DEcEIvER.

Yon never saw a gal surprised
Like Jimmy Powers sister
The night that Bill Mckee devised
The scheme hy which he kissed her.
The two were slandin' At the gate.
To whistle she vas learnin',
Her lips we're temptin' an twas late
To ki.s 'em bil was yearnin'.
To whist. yol must DO ike this"
Said Bill, an, leanin' over,
lie showed BIZ pnckercd, to the miss
Whose own, ~ red a. clover,
Soon puckered Iho selfsame way.
Then, would ton believe Il, mister,
Ere she colld inrn her head away
The cheeky chap had kissed her.
The color flowed Toto her cheeks,
Her neck was dyed with bushes.
She tremb ed % she could not speak,
An down among the rushee
The brook leaped up TO tell the flower
That bent their heads to listen,
How Bill Mcsee taught Susie Powers
The old, sweet game Of kissin'.

Queer Freak of 8 Drunken Brute In
 Cleveland.

Queer Freak of Drunken Brute In
 Cleveland.
 A Cleveland family was in court the other day. A daughter was one of the witnesses, and she had this cheerful tale to tell of her father: ''Pa was sit ting in his saloon, feeling lonely. He went to the barn, and putting halter on his horse brought him into the house, saying he wanted the animal to eat supper with him. Pa made me set plate for the horse. Then he took hold of the horses front legs and lifted them up on the table, We all satdown to supper and the horse began to eat. Pa picked up a mug of beer and began to laugh and throw both hands in the air. The mug hit the horse on the nose. The beast pulled his feet down, dragging the tablecloth and .upsetting the table. The horse backed up and sat squarely on redhot stove. This burned it's tail so the animal kicked the stove over and ran out Of the door, I screamed and pa threw lamp at me. The house came near catching fire, and police man came in. Pa has been arrested 10S times"

''The awards granted, at the Worlds Columbian Exposition, compared to the number of exhibitors, present the smallest number ever granted on the occasion of a, Worlds Fair. This re- suit distinctly shows that unusual care and precaution were taken by the ex- pert judges, who, because of the rule requiring them to declare over their own signatures the reasons for their Judgment, fully realized the great re- sponsibility thrown upon them. The exhibitor, therefore, may be assured that his award will have a value such as the award granted at previous Ex- positions never gave" This state ment, from the official circular of the Worlds Columbian Commission, as ap- piled to Ayers Sarsaparilla, the only medicine of the kind admitted at the Worlds Fair, and which also received the highest possible awards, must con- vince the most sceptical mind that this well-known blood-purifier stands far in advance of all other similar preparations in existence. It has cured others. it will cure you.

A busy place just now is Alkire's big store. Their grand gift sale is on and will be until July 15. The presents to be absolutely given away are now on exhibition and one wonders how the boys can be so rash as to give away so many beautiful and costly articles. The secret of the whole thing is selling for cash. Let circus come along and everybody goes to it, even if they haven't enough to eat. On this same principle gift sale attracts the multi tude who would spend their cash for useless instead of useful things if it was not for the attraction of getting something for nothing. The gift busi- ness is not an experiment with AL kire's. They have tried it before and know how to conduct the same on bus mess principles. By this method they are able to more quickly turn their stock and can thus keep large vol ume of cash in constant circulation. They make by it and their customers make by it and in the long run the whole community makes by it. When the hot weather comes instead of giv- ing up and going to sleep, Alkire's put on additional steam and make trade while their competitors lose it. That is few of the reasons why Alkire's sell all their goods very cheap and yet can afford to make valuable presents to customers.

Waits Long for a Drink,

On Laurel hill in Bridgeton, N. J., there stands a house between whose walls is hidden quart bottle of the purest applejack. The bottle has rested there for 39 years, and has, according to the old story told, eleven years more to stay. When the house was built, 39 years ago, quart bottle was filled with jack and tightly sealed and plastered in the wall by man who had the house built. The bottle is not to be taken from it's dark recess until the son of the man who placed it there for him be- comes 50 years of age. The 'boy' is now 39 years of age, and in all these years has kept true to the promise made in the days of his youth to his father not to touch the bottle of applejack until he reaches the half-century mark in life's journey.

NONE BUT AYERS AT THE
 WORLDS FAIR.

Ayers Sarsaparilla enjoys the ex- traordinary distinction of having been the only blood purifier allowed an ex- hibit at the Worlds Fair. Chicago. Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application Of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums. The decision of the Worlds Fair authori- ties dn favor of Ayers Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows: Ayers Sarsapa- rllla is not a patent medicine. It does not belong to the list of nostrums. It is here on it's merits"

How Commencement Week Was Aus

Sunday morning at il Dr. McNaugh- ton and wife entertained at breakfast the graduating class of the Territorial Normal school.

Still Mrs. McNaughton was not allowed to compile the card without aid, for here is what was slipped by mirthful graduate between it's leaves:

BEAUTIFUL GIFTS.

The store that sells the best mer- chandise for the least money is where you want to do your trading. The de- pressed state of the market and scar city of ready cash has compelled few manufacturers to offer us some special lines below market value. Every per son buying dry goods, clothing, shoes, etc., should consider these facts, and then call and see our bargains. We se- cured many useful articles which we shall give as free gifts to our custom CTS with each $2.50, $5 and $7.5O pur- chase. Each 25 cent sale will be cred tied on the ticket of the purchaser.
