wy HEN you have Job Printing to

member THE YORKVILLE ENQUl-
RER, If you want a good job at a low
price. We are now better prepared
than ever before to do Job Printing
quickly and at low prices. Our prices
have been cut from 20 to 33 per cent,
and this notwithstanding the higher
prices of printing material, paper goods
Of all kinds being especially high. BY
the use of the most improved Linotype
typesetting machine we are enabled TO
get out pamphlets and books In a very
short space Of time, being able when
it is necessary to get out from Fifty to
One Hundred pamphlet pages per week.
Our prices for this work as well as on
Commercial Work has been greatly re-
duced, and we are ready to compete IN
price with any printing establishment
that does good work, in the state. We
do not do shabby, botchy printing at
any price, and do not want to put
price on any work unless the custo-
mer desires good work. Shoddy work
reflects just as much discredlt on the
printer as upon the man who sends 1t
out, and therefore we do not cater to
the trade wanting shoddy printing. II
you want fine printing at a low prize
we are ready to do it. Our stock Of un-

Of paper or envelopes that you desire

THERE WAS MAN IN THE HOUSE.
The other evening as muscular per-
son was passing house, a lady, who
stood at the gate, called out to him:
"Sir. appeal to you for protection"
what is the matter?" he asked, as
he stopped short.
There's a man in the house, and he
wont go go out Of doors, though have
ordered him to-"
HE won't, eh? Well see about that
Thereupon the man gave the woman
his coat to hold and sailed into the
house. He found a man at the supper
table and took him by the neck and re-
marked: mice style Of brute you are
eh? Come out Of this, or I'll break
every bone in your body!"
The man fought, and it was not until
a chair had been broken and the table
upset that he was hauled out Of doors
by the legs and given fling through
the gates.
''Now, then, you brass-faced old
tramp, you move. on, or I'll finish you!
Tramp! Tramp shouted the victim
as he got up. I'm no tramp. I own
this property, and live in the house!"
"You do"
"Yes, that's my wife holding. your
coat"
"Thunder!" whispered the muscular
man as he gazed from one to the other
and realized that it was the wife's
method Of finishing a row she had been
having with her husband. And then
he made a grab for his coat and disap-
peared into the darkness.-London Tit

MANY USES FOR EGGS.

The uses to which eggs may be put
are many, aside from their employ
ment in cooking.
A mustard plaster made with the
white Of an egg will not leave a blis-
ter.
White Of an egg beaten with loaf
sugar and lemon relieves hoarseness-
a teaspoonful taken every hour.
An egg added to the morning cup of
coffee makes good tonic.
A raw egg with the yolk unbroken,
taken in a glass of wine, is beneficial
for convalescents.
1t Is said that raw egg If swallow
ed at once when fish bone is caught
in the throat beyond the reach Of the
fingers, will dislodge the bone and car
ry it down.
The white Of an egg turned over a
burn or scald is most soothing and
cooling. 1t can be applied quickly, and
will prevent inflammation, besides re-
lieving the stinging pain.
One of the best remedies in case of
bowel trouble is partly beaten raw
egg taken at one swallow. 1t Is heal
ing to the inflamed stomach and intes-
tines, and will relieve the feeling of
distress. Four eggs taken in this man.
ner in "a hours will form the best kind
Of nourishment as well as medicine for
the patient.
A raw egg is one of the most nutri:
tious Of foods, and may be taken very
easily if the yolk is not broken. A lit
tie nutmeg grated upon the egg, few
drops of lemon juice sprinkled over it,
or some salt and a dash Of cayenne
pepper, vary the flavor, and tend to
make it more palatable when taken as
medicine.
The white Of raw egg is the most
satisfactory Of pastes, and is better
than any prepared mucilage or paste
one can buy. Papers intended to be
put over tumblers Of jelly and jam will
hold very securely and be air-tight II
dipped in the white Of an egg.

THE ART OF entertaining.

made homelike by our daily use.
No hostess apologies for any guest
All are on the same social plane while
under her roof, and should receive
equal consideration.
1t is disputed point whether host Of
guest should suggest retiring for the
night. 1t relieves visitors Of embar.
rassment to know the ways Of the
household, and a readiness to comply
with them Is a mark Of politeness.
It shows no lack Of cordiality to re.
frain from urging friends to extenc
their visit. They probably have Other
pleasant plans, and the hostess may
be asking a great favor when she fan
cies she is comforting one.
Experienced entertainers recommend
that the men should generally spen6
their mornings together, and womer
enjoy each others society. All meet al

Every guest should be made to fee
that his or her presence has added tc
the pleasure of the entertainment, an6
conferred a personal qualification upor
the hosts.
A prompt expression Of qualification
in remembering the visit at once, upor
returning home, is an evidence Of gooG
breeding.
A guest should hold sacred anything
that may be learned of the family life
or the peculiarities Of any member Of
the household where hospitality has
been accepted.
Visitors should fall in readily with
any plan proposed for their pleasure
showing a disposition to be easily
amused and interested; but must not
seem dependent for amusement.-Mrs
Burton Kingsland, in the September

TRAINING BOYS.

Boys must be trained for the farm
as we'll as for other professions. The
reason we have so many poor farmers
is simply because boys were not train
ed for the farm. The old rule was, II
farmer had three sons, two bright
and one dull, he would educate the
two. bright boys for professions and
would say, "This dull boy Is not fit for
anything but farmer" Now, there is
where a great mistake has been made,
as it requires more actual intelligence
and better education to be successful
farmer than for any other profession.
Boys must be taught to love the farm
and farm work. This can be easily
done, provided we can show our boys
that farming pays. AS soon as boys
will see that they can earn more money
and have finer clothes in other profess
sions they will leave the farm. It Is
the duty Of every farmer to make
farming pay-by industry, by energy,
! by study of special conditions and es-
pecially by practical economy. Farm
ers should not waste time, labor or
money. This should be taught to the
boys by example. Waste of time makes
want. The farmer who takes his boys
and goes out hunting or fishing when
the crops need his care, will want the
time to care for them and will want
the profits that come from care. There
is no waste as fateful as that of time.
Time means money, because 1t means
labor. It frequently happens when boys
become of age that the father will say:
II can't afford to pay you much; you
may go elsewhere" Now, this Is all
wrong. The farmer should so man.
age his farm that he can afford to give
his boys more salary than they can
get in any other profession. Every
farmer must be wide awake and must
show his boys by example that he is
wide awake. MAKE hay while the
sun Shines" Is farmers proverb and
it is far-reaching in it's application. 1t
means that delay is dangerous" that
the loss Of days work when the time
is right may spoil seasons work. If
the grain overripens, II the stock suf-
fers for food, water or care, If he's
loafing around stores, hotels and sa-
looms when he should be planting, or
lpleasuring when he should be hoeing.
he may be sure that such neglect will
bring results common to all neglect of
business. Keep the farm up. Keep the
fences up. Keep the stock up. Stick
| to the farm. First make living for
those who depend on the farm. Make
lit a good living. Then look at the
marketing Of surplus produce. Show
your boys that you are in earnest. Be
systematic. Stop the leaks. The lit
tie savings may make the difference
between profit and loss.

AS the porter passed through the car
she called him aside. There was a

"Now, remember, they are in the yell

"Cyan't miss dem, ma'am."
"You won't let any one see you?"
No, ma am"
"The major is sitting in that car"
"He won't see me, ma'am."
"Wel, here is the key"
The porter took the key and passed
through to the next car.
"Guess dis am It," he said, slipping
the thin key in the lock Of yellow
satchel. He put his hand in the satch-
ell and pulled out bunch Of hair. Then
he relocked the satchel.
"Heah's yo' frizzez, ma'am."
Don't speak so loud"
Anything else, ma'am?"
That's all. believe. I just have a
minute to put them on before dinner"
The porter reached the platform in
time to meet an irate tragedian.

that almost lifted the porter's cap.
What have you done with my whisk-
ers, boy?"
your whiskers, sah?"
'Yes, my false beard. The passengers
say you opened my satchel with false
key. Where are those whiskers'?'
"Laws!" muttered the. porter. "Ah

Just then a lady passed toward the
dining car.
'Dah's yo' whiskers, sah!" grinned
the porter. ION top oh dat lady's haid."
