! An English journalist travelling
through the United States relates a
humorous incident in his experience
out west. He was journeying over
land on horseback, and one day, after
long spell of desolate travel, he
espied q house on the prairie. He rode
up to the doorway and accosted the
only person around, long gentleman
IN boots. these boots seemingly trying
70 reach tue sky, they were perched SO
high above the owners head. They
game slowly down at the salutation.
"Howdy do. stranger? Glad ter see
Per. This is Boonyille," and with a
sweeping gesture hecompassed land
ecape Of grass and wooden stakes.
''There's Broadway runnin' down
tween the stakeA and there's Chicago
avenue, St. Louis avenue, st. Paul ave-
nue., and all them are streets stakcd
off'n it. On thu lookout tor q buiidin'
site?"
no." replied the jodsnaliss I'm

''Tlat's my lux. stranger. Here's

I'm all that. Yer see. stranger, I'm

I'm er-holdin,." -
"How DO You maAage to get along

Don't, stranxef: that's the puzzle.
Yer see. there's only so cents in the
town treasury, and I've been payin' my
rent and taxes with it, and collecting
my saaary Is mayor and all my other
Offices from it - long and it's been
banded 80 much that the town books
wont balance any more. Yer see. I
can't find anything to balance the books
with fer the wear Of the silver of that

stranger, if yer not goin' ter invest,
and want ter boom the town er little,
yer might make up that deficit in the
treasury, sos kin balance them books
