I housekeepers. It declares that the
best is always the cheapest. It pays to
remember this when buying coffee. Get
the best. Don't be deceived! You can't
have value without cost. The price Of

not adapt things like the Yankees.
They can make q tomato can serve The

nuity goes very little farther. The
most surprising and mysterious prob
lem is the origin Of their hats, and ,

Pattern of neadgear worn anywhere

any other part of the civilized world,

are handed down from generation to
generation. They tell story Of an
old man whose hat blew off as he was
crossing bridge and foated Gown the
stream. The neighbors rallied to the
cry of distress and sought for days
with as much zeal as they would have
shown in recovering a human body.
But it was failure, and from that
date the old man went about bare
headed. He was too cid to buy new
hat, he said. A merciful Providence
could not be expected to spare him
many years longer.

size and quality, as in secondhand

families of the mountaineers in ex-
change for vegetables, eggs, butter,
fowls, fuel and whatever else the pur-
chasers are able to offer. Nothing is
given away. The price Of pair Of

Members frequently regale the
cloakroom habitues with stories either
originated or told, or both, by ex- Gov
ernor Robert L. Taylor. Here is one
cerdited to the governor, and whether
he deserves the credit or not it is good
enough to have originated in his witty
brain:
There was nervous womae,in a
passenger train. She inquired fire.
quently o. the conductor as to what
time she would arrive at o certain sta
tion, and the train did not regularly
stop there. But her inquiries, shrill
Of conductor, porter, brakeman and
passengers awakened the interest of
every one in the coach. Finally they
came to the station, and by some
mishap .went two or three miles be-
yond without stopping. The conduc-
tor rang the bell, the great engine re-
versed, the train backed slowly to the
platform, and the conductor, forcing
his way Lrrriedly through the crowd
ed car, ,,found the woman and said:
"sCome on, madam. Here is your

WAYcRoss; GA, June 29.-Willio
Rladea, son Of Mr. William BIaden.
dairyman. who lives near town, fell
into well yesterday aud was saved
by q mere incident.
Willie is about 12 years old and he
aud Charlie Hart, who is 10, were
sent to the field to work. About ten
O'Clock they went to an old we'll on
the place to get some water. They
had rope and bucket aud in drawing
the water, Will somehow lost his bal
ance and tambled into the we'll head
foremost. His companion was brave
boy and instead of running away for
help he began to try to get the bucket
and rome dc=S &c his friend, out when
ne looked down into the dark shaft 40
feet deep, Will had disappeared be-
meath the water. For several min
utes he did not reappear. but by good
fortune The c!a battling block had
sometime previously fallen into the
weil which was out of use and Will
bad lodged on this. It had gone down
under the momentum of the fall, but
had buoyed up the boys half dead
body again to the surface. Will was
seriously hurt by the fall and proba.
bly, would not have stirred from his
dazed condition for some time, but for
the fact that he beheld huge mocca-
sin staring him in the face from one
corner of the we'll.
This was stimulous enough and
Will had no desire to dispute the right
OF possession to the we'll and he called
manfully to his companion to let down
the bucket. Charles complied as
rapidly as he could and soon had Will
riding to the surface as rapidly as his
slender rope would allow. When res
cued Will was very much disfgured
and badly unnerved. He says the big
snake scared him worse than the fall
hurt him.
