The County Road System.

The county road scheme, now being
talked of in this county, when put TO
vote will receive a favorable verdict
from the farmers in this section, as
they are just about thoroughly slcken-
ed of their own most excellent (?) meth
DDS of highway labor.-Yale Expositor.
The above item, which appeared in
the Brockway correspondence of The
Yale Expositor, Dec. 3rd, was last week
copied by The Capac Journal and
credited in that paper to Tne Expos
itor, and reader would think these
we're the sentiments of the farmers in
the county road system. Now, Bro.
Hunter, the farmers do not favor this,
and those we have talked with will not
vote for it next spring, although they
do want good roads. So far we have
taken no position in this matter but
will say right here that it does not look
reasonable or right. After reading The
Journal we heartily endorse its senti-
ments and believe the majority of the
electors IN this section of the county
will take the same stand at the coming
election when the matter is placed be-
fore them next spring to be voted up
on. Those with whom we have talked
do not favor the taxing of the town.
ships to build roads leading to the
cities. Ii the money raised in each
township could be expended on the
highways of the township, the county
road system would be reasonable. In
a future issue the question of good
roads will be more fully discussed.

CHRISTMAS TIDE.
Attractive Displays In The
Windows OF Our Enter
priSing Merchants.
Give The Little Children Something To
Make Them Happy. And At The Same
Time Remember The Poor.

Everybody is shopping this week and
admiring the pretty show windows of
our merchants, who seem to have taken
more pains than ever to dress up their
windows with their various lines of
goods in order to make them attractive
to the passerby and incidentally to
catch their share of trade.
We notice that our merchants have
thought more of this window dressing
art than they used to and we commend
them for it, as a handsome, tastily
dressed window adds much to the beau
ty of a town, calls the attention of all
passers, strangers or home people, and
where people are attracted to articles
in show window, they usually find
something which calls them inside the
store and in the end the proprietor has
customer.
The time spent in dressing a show
window always pays well. This year,
in particular, we have some very pref
ty windows. The demand for holiday
goods brings forth plenty of material
with which TO work and our merchants
have not stinted the shoppers in this
line. The bazaars and other places
where novelties are kept have their
windows and stores full of goods suit
able for their trade, or rather, have had,
for we expect by the time this issue is
published all the stores will present
rather slim appearance. 1t has been
a pleasure for two weeks past to saun-
ter through our large iewelry and art
store. In our dry goods stores the
more sober but far more useful goods
have been placed to such pleasing ad-
vantage that purchasers are numerous.
The milliners have had added touches
of beauty in their always tasty win
dows. The large show window of the
hardware store was packed with hand
some articles of utility that all the lad
les need. The windows of the grocery
stores have made your mouth water
until you purchased all the necessaries
and many luXuries for your Christmas
dinner. The meat markets-well, you
know you MUST have that turkey, or
chicken or duck and those oysters which
you see in such abundance.
The holiday shopping is nearly ended
In week another new year will be
here. Tonight with the Christmas en-
tertainments and Christmas morning
with their stockings the children will
be made perfectly happy. Whatever
the toys, be they cheap or expensive
give them something. 1t takes little to
make a child happy, and let us not for
get the poor with us, a toy here or there,
a bit from our Christmas dinner will
never be missed and will fill many va
cant spots in other homes.
Oh, 20 where the stockings are empty,
Where Christmas is nallght but name,
Twas TO seek such as these that tie cdnle
| And give-for the love of the Christ-child.
The Yale expositor., 1897-12-24

But nevertheless its true that nce large juicy words
on paper or well turned sentences; just simply telling
the people about yourself and your store won't bring
business these times.

For several weeks our
space in the daily papers
was occupied with desCrip-
tons of the Jewel Stoves
and Ranges; we stopped
talking only when we
thought the public was tired
reading about stoves. A
break in the monotony is
good for business, good for
the readers of the papers.
In the interval, covering
two or three weeks, we
have dilated upon utensils,
which 60 with the stoves,
kitchen furniture, CroCkery
and French china; but all
the time we have been fairly
busy selling Jewel stoves.
We are willing to sell more.
Our stock includes every
possible variety, style or
size. Some of them burn
wood only, others coal or
wood. We have them with
reservoir or hot water coil.

stoves with ovens to suit.
Persons with stoves nearly
worn out, will receive a lib

dealers.
Some of the best house
keepers in Honolulu have
sent us testimonials on the
Jewel. They may be seen

A TRYING SITTJATTON

A bashful young bachelor living in the Twenty-sixth Ward had a rather em- barrassing experience few nights ago. purchasing a seat in proscenium box The box was pretty we'll filled up when he got there. Among the occupants were a young woman and her escort. The girl, who was engrossed in the per formance, did not notice the entrance of the newcomer, nor was she aware that her escort, who had been sitting behind had moved over a few feet to make room for the bashful man. After a while one of the performers did some thing funny, which aroused the girls mirth. She half turned and laid her hand on the masculine knee back of her Isn't that funny?' she said.
 The bashful man blushed, said noth- ing, and as the little hand rested on his knee he began to grow uneasy and then to prespire. He didn't know what to do. Finally he attempted to gently remove the hand. The taper fingers closed oyer his big paw, and squeezed it lovingly. Then they placed the big hand back on it's owners knee and patted it playfully. The little hand rested upon the big one for several minutes that seemed as many hours to the btshful young man. Suddenly the girl said: Gracious, you must be warm you're perspiring so.' She turned and looked at the man behind her and she nearly tainted He was as thoroughly confused as she however, and a moment later he got up and went out Philadelphia Record.

THE DOG AIDED THE HEN

As the story goes, the mistress of the dog is also a keeper of hens. One of these was setting upon a clutch" of thirteen eggs and Don, the black and tan, soon became very curious to know why she stayed in the barn so closely.
 The dog, as it appears had formerly been given to teasing the hen, snatch ing her food away from her, and other wise making himself torment: but this intercourse had gradually turned into friendship, and the two would sometimes be seen lying and squatting side by side in the sun, on bit of carpet in the back porch.
 Burning the three weeks that the hen sat on her eggs Don used to pay daily visits to the barn, and sometimes he would stay with her by the half hour. Then the chicks came out of theirshells. Don was intensely interested. All day long he scarcely left the barn. Thenext morning when the hen stepped off the

HE KNEW HOW IF WAS.

The old gentleman looked rather solemn when his beautiful daughter entered the reception-room in response to his summons.
 "Rosalind," he said with the air of d man who has made a disagreeable discovery, you and young MT Hark- ins were in this room last evening, I believe"
 Yes, papa" she answered with down. cast eyes. "George-that is, MT. Hark- ins-called last evening and l received him here"
 "He calls about three times a week according to my count" said the old gentleman, and I suppose you put in the time discussing literature and art and all that sort of thing"
 we are both very fond of good litera- ture," ventured the beautiful daughter.
 "Of course you are,' replied the old gentleman sarcastically. It takes three sessions a week for you to keep up with the times. Oh I know all about that, I am willing to make certain con sessions in view of your literary ten dencies but don't exactly understand this"
 The old gentleman pointed to four cigars that were lying on the mantel- piece. The blood instantly mounted to the face of the beautiful daughter but she did not lose her presence of mind.
 'Oh, dear how stupid of mel she cried George that is, Mir Harlxwins left those for you last night and for got to give them to you" Left them for mel Yes. You see, they're new brand that he thinks particularly good and he wants you to try them and see what you think of them He has great con- f1dence in your judgment, and he. "---- She stopped, for the old gentleman | had critically examined one of the | cigars and then smelled of 1t, and he | was now looking at her over the top ot | his glasses in very disconcerting way
 That's the same cigar he has smoked 1 for six months to my certain know l ledge" he said
