Don't be Fooled.

Watch out for the campaign rumor-
reporter and maker. 1t is surprising
indeed. how sensible people are intiu-
ence by report about candidate.
We would advise that no attention what
ever be placed in reports about a can
didate unless the proof accompanies the
report.
We once heard of a young man who
had always led an exemplary life being
induced TO become a candidate. He
made his announcement and wherever
he went the best of encouragement was
given him. his opponent started re-
port that he had stolen a sheep, and
when this report reached the young
mans ears. he was very much mortified
and indignant. He tried to trace the
source of the rumor, but failed and in
his dilema he consulted his father who
told him to go on and denounce the
SANDER with all the vehemance at his
command. At the next meeting he did
as his father said, and his opponent
asked if it was not a fact that on a cer-
tain night sheep from that neighbor-
hood was stolen. \ farmer in the au-
dience replied, ''yes, and 1 am the man
that lost the sheep" The young can
didate was perplexed, and he went
home and told his father he would quit
the race. The father was surprised
and wanted to know why. The son re-
peated what had taken place at the
meeting. and the old man said well
suppose sheep was stolen, that doesn't
signify that you are the thief" well
father. I know I never stole sheep,
but I was afraid to press the matter for
fear that as well as my opponent could
prove sheep was stolen, he could just
as easy prove that stole it,
This story may never have occurred,
but similar things have happened, and
it is always safe rule in a political con-
test to believe nothing you hear and
about one-half YOU see. Beware OF
character destroyerS.

Why He Wanted Small Change.


1t was Saturday, and he was on his
way home.
Stepping to the showcase in the cl-
gar store he carefully surveyed the
goods that We're displayed in the
boxes
"Are those three for n quarter" he
asked, pointing out brand that SEEM
ed to please him.
YES" said the man behind the coun-
ter Were making special sale of
them this week. They have always
been 10 cents straight"
"All right" said the customer. "Let
me have three of them"
A handful of the cigars was laid on
top of the case. and he carefully Sc
lected three of them, after which he
handed out half dollar.
The shopkeeper played little tune
upon his cash register and passed back
Il quarter.
Say" said the man who had bough
the cigars, cant you give me some
smaller change? My wife wants I'M
to so to church with her tomorrow
and I'll need something for the con
tribution plate. ! s'pose ! might giv'
up n quarter; but, by George, l hav'
to work hard for every cent ] get."-

Pleasant Mail Delivery.

The postmaster was hard mt work Mt
his desk when n slight noise caused
him to raise his eyes, and he discover
ed a blushng maiden of 16 with n
money order which she wanted cashed.
She handed 1t with n bashful smile to
the official, who after closely examin-
Ing 1t, gave her the money II called for.
At the same time he asked her IL she
had read what was written on the
margin OF the order.
"No, have not" she replied, "for
cannot make 1t out. VIII you please
read 1t for mcp"
The postmaster read as follows: 81
send you $5 and dozen kisses"
Glancing at the bnshful girl, he said,
"NOw l have paid you the money, l
suppose you want the kisses?"
YES" she said. "If he has sent me
any kisses, want them too"
1t is hardly necessary to say to those
who are acquainted with Uncle Sans
official that the balance of the order
was paid in n scientific manner.
On reaching home the delighted
maiden remarked to her mother;
Mother, this postotfice system Of ours
Is great thing, developing more and
more every year, and each new fea
ture seems to be best. Jimmy sent me
dozen kisses along with money
order, and John gave me 20. 1t beats
