When Bill Hemioot, the bark husksr Of
Chipmunk Hollow, and Jen Peters, his
hearts Idol, drove into town the hottest
rate war In tho history of matrimony was
raging between Badly Splicer, Esq, the
leading justice Of tho peace Of Communal
Corners and rival Justice, both Of whom
nado q speciality Of Splicing country
couples regardless Of ago, color, religion
or previous condition of matrimonial serv-
itude
Justice Spiders rival had started tho
war by making couple one for $3.50, de-
spite the fact that tho regular tariff was S2.
When he heard the news, Justice SpliOer
swore by the pinfeathers on the wings Of
Cupid that no man could underbid him,
and promptly announced rate Of S1.75
with u bouquet for tho bride thrown In.
Within Is minutes Justice Gubbins more
than met the cut by declaring that he
would wed a couple for $1.85, throw In a
pair Of ext-a witnesses give the bride a
pound OF Inolasses taffy and beautify the
marriage certificate with red ink birds
md flowers.
when the hotel porters who got COM
mission for capturing country couples at
the trains brought the news to Justice
Splicer, that worthy at onco came down to
Sl.55 and offered to throw in the following
as bonus: One chrome of Leander SWIM
ming the Hellespont, papered covered
copy. Of "How to Be Happy Though Mar
ried," a pound Of molasses taffy and kiss
for tho bride, If she wanted 1t.
At this interesting juncture Bill and
Jen arrived upon the scene and were
promptly spotted by one Of Justice Spill
GERS hotel porters, keen fellow who could
discern natrimonially inclined couple at
the distance Of half u mile without even
straining his eyes. He held thom up, sur
rounded them and eloquontly set forth the
fact that regular fire sale In marriage
certificates was in progress and that he
could get them In on the ground floor of
welded bliss for $1.tb and extras thrown
in. He was interrupted in the middle Of
his plea by rival porter, who dashed up,
seized Bill by the arm and announced that
Justice Gubbins would tie the most artis-
ito nuptial knot in history for s1.49, and
give the bride two pounds of tafsy, red
bandana handkerchief pair of diamond
earrings and quart Of fresh roasted pea
nuts.
"say, Jen, did ye hear that'" whispered
Bill.
"Uh, huh" replied Jen. ,ssssi.Sss.
"Will ye marry me, Jens"
"Uh, huh, Bill, but not now, not now"
"Why not Jen?'
"Why mott" Jen repeated, her eyes fash
ing with scorn. "Do ye suppose I'm ever
goin to have ye THROWN 1t in my face that
