NElGHBORL0 GOSSIP
'SYou uns may say what you please,
an you uns may say it jest as long as
you uns please; but, as have said be-
fore an as I'll continer to say, thar's
somethin pow'ful heavy a-weighin on
Sim Banks mind" r
Lord, Pap Sampson, you've been
a-sayin them words till we uns have all
done learnt 'em by heart, an you can
keep on n-sayin 'em till you've wore
'em plumb out, IL you want to, but 1
tell you right now you're barkin up the
wrong tree. I've said before, an say
ag'in, that all on earth's the matter
with Sim Banks is that he's fixin to
have spell of fever"
you have said that, Jason Roberts,
an mebby you have said somethin you
know, an mebby you hain't. My no
ton is you hain't. But If you'll allow
me l Jest want to ask you one ques-
ton"
'You jest so ahead, Pap Sampson, an
ask all the questions you please. I'll
answer all kin of 'em, an when you
ask one can't scrape up no answer for
I'll holler."
Every well. Now, then, Jason Rob-
erts, can you tell me why a teller fixin
to have spell Of fever would go mop
in round for two long weeks, not a-feel-
In sick nor nothin, but Jest actin for all
the world like he'd lost ever cent he
owned an ever friend he had to his
back? Can you Jest tell me that?''
Couldn't a feller fixin to have the
fever act that a-wayP'
"Mebby he could, Jason, but he don't.
You hain't answered my question.
though"
My notion is, Pap, that thar amt no
need OF him answerin it, for 1 reckon
you an JasoA's both got the wrong pig
by the tall
IF you're so smart, Jim Thorn, why
don't you reich into the pen an git a
hold Of the tail of the right pig?"
AZ have"
"Then you jest show that pig to US an
let US see its color, will you?
II will. All on earth's the matter
with Sim Banks is jest this. He's in
love with the Wilder Mann, an he's
moonin round cause ne can't have her."
''That's the color of the pig you got
by the tail, is itY"
'It are"
"Then, Jim Thorn, all got to say is
that you didn't even git your pig outen
the right pen. The one you got's a
plumb stray"
That's jest your notion, Pap Samp-
son, but you jest wait an you'll see."
Pap thumped his cane down almost
viciously.
Jim Thorn" he said, you'll never
make me believe no SIGH thing as that
OF Sim Banks, not if you preach it till
your heads as bald as q pumpkin. I've
knowed Sim since he want no bigger
than cat, an can say, an say it open
an aboveboard, that amt never yet
knowed him to do airy a single thing
that he had any call to be ashamed Of"
my land, Pap, do you think bein in
love with Mis'us Mann is anything to
be ashamed OFF,
cit would be for a man that's al.
ready got a woman shorely, an don't
know, Jim Thorn, but what I'd be
ashamed of it even If didn't have nc
woman"
There was a general laugh at this
which caused Pap to straighten up and
look important.
That's a putty hard knock on the
wilder" Hicks observed presently, ''but
If Pap was a widower bet he wouldn't
talk no SIGH a way"
Nary time he wouldn't" Jasor
agreed. Lord! II Pap was single, he'G
be cuttin round after the womer
wuss,n q hungry cat after cream"

The Future of Canada.

There is no reason why Canada should
not have 25,0OO,00O population within
the span of the present generation, says
J. d. Whelpley in the August Atlantic
Her wealth is increasing at fourfold
ratio. Her tremendous resources are
just beginning to be appreciated, and
there is no apparent limit to their ulti-
mate development.
Conscious of her value to her great
neighbor, fully approaching the neces-
sity of the good will of that neighbor to
her own prosperity, she is chagrined at
the rebuff she believes she has met
With anxious interest she is now
watching the war of Europe against the
commerce of the United States, not in
the hope that Europe will win, but in
the expectation that all parties thereto
will in time reach the conclusion that
commercial war is a useless expenditure
of valuable forces which should rather
be utilized in the making of conventions
to enable the trade of one country to fit
advantageously into that of another.
Canadian statesmen look with conf
dence to bring about some such result,
and anticipate with equal optimism an
early awakening of the United States
to the promise of her neighbor to be-
come the first instead of the third great
est customer for the products of Ameri-
can labor.

Would Own the Queens Home.

The possibility that Osborn house on
the Isle OF Wight, where Queen Vic
toria died, may pass into the possession
of an American, is suggested in de-
spatch to the New York World, which
says:
''king Edward wants to get rid of
Osborne house, because of its inacces-
sibility and because it costs 100000 a
year to keep it up.
civilian Waldorf Astor is said to
have offered to pay any price the King
might fix, desiring to present the famous
royal residence to his daughter when the
she marries theDuke of Roxburgh, but it
was found that under Queen Victoria's
will the King is only given life title
to the palace. Rumor says Mr.. Astor
now wishes to lease the property.
Senator William A. Clark of Monta-
ma is reported to have written to the
King asking him how much he will
take.
Charles 7. Yerkes also is reported
to be a bidder"

A Cow Tale.

The Prospect correspondent of the Rock
land Opinion writes "a few days since,
one of our townsmen was driving along the
street with a COW hitched to the wagon.
The halter got united, and the COW went into
mans barn. He drove on without her for
about mile, when he looked around and
saw the halter but no COW. He remarked
that he had heard of a COW eating her hal
ter, but never before of halter eating the
cow. He located his COW at last, but the
story has cost him some cigars.
