Joe Domain has decided to 90 to
Belgium and thereby hangs a curious
story. When his father, John De-
main of this county, was in Europe
last summer; q cousin of his who is
wealthy and single sent for him and
proposed that Joe should come over
and live with him as the name of De.
main would otherwise die out on the
continent. The matter was proposed
to Joe and declined. Since then the
Belgian has repeatedly written urging
the matter and Joe has finally decided
to go. IT he and his cousin prove mus
tually agreeable the probabilities are
Joe will become q resident of the old
country and his Cousins heir. The
old gentleman's interest in Joe is to
perpetuate the name, which dies with
him unless someone of the American
branch of the family will consent to
become a resident of Belgium and per.
petuate the name. Joe will probably
take the job. He won't like it at first
but will soon get used to it and when
we see him again will most likely have
forgotten the English language. It is
TOO bad that we can't all inherit for
tunes but that does not prevent our
congratulating Joe and wishing him
every success.

RECONSTRUCTED.

A Topeka man lost small opal Sc,
out OF his ring and went to the jeweler
TO have it replaced. Returning home
ne found the lost. set and, putting it ir
his mouth for safe keeping, hurried
back to the jewelers. to have that sci
used instead OF the new opal. Rushing
into the store he said: ."Say. I've
found the old set, so don't use tina,
new one" He attempted to remove the
stone from his mouth, gave a gulp,
loked sheepish and said: 81 guess

The Participation Stamps.

The inscription. Commemorative Series.
1901 instead of "Pan-American Series.
1901 will be borne on the stamps issued
by the government in commemoration of
the pan-American exposition. This is in
accordance with an opinion rendered yes
terday by Assistant Attorney General Ty-
ner on question submitted by the fourth
assistant postmaster general, Mr.. Madden.
Mr.. Tyner decides that section sos. Re-
vised Statutes, in all probability was in
tended by Congress to prevent the use OF
postage stamps from becoming a medium
of advertising ordinary business transac-
tions. Accordingly the propriety of print
ing the words "Pan-American Series, 1901, -
on the contemplated issue is doubted, as it
would be In some sense an advertisement,
the exposition being private enterprise
aided by Congress. But 1t is held there is
nothing to prevent printing of the words
commemorative Series, 1901" as 1t may
De regarded as the record OF an historical
period without any reference to a particu-
lar event."
