Too Goop.-"No, SIR" said the old
gentleman, bringing his fist down hard
on the desk in front of him, Il Will
never consent to my daughters becom-
ing the wife of a man who uses strong
drink"
"B-b-but," the trembling young
man who stood twirling his hat and
ever and anon stealing glance at the
door as if calculating the number OF
iumps he would have to make In reach-
ing it hastily, II never tasted liquor IN
my life"
Daniel Gettenhold looked up with
suddenly awakening interest.
oh" he said, never drank drop
eh?"
mo, SIR" Clarence Darlington re-
piled, "I do not know the taste of the
nasty stuff"
well; but I s'pose you smoke and
chew tobacco. Them's more habits
don't like-specially chewin'. A man
that chews tobacco is"
II beg your pardon, sir; but 1 have
never user tobacco in any form. L
never have even smoked a cigarette.
HIM her father answered.; but
YOU swear like a trooper, sometimes,
I'll bet Now, if there's anything l hate
to have around the house it's a man
that swears. Swearin' is habit that
no"
But have never uttered an oath in
all my life; have never told lie, nor
said a word that I would be ashamed
to have any lady hear. T.
"Oh, confound it," the old man eX-
plained, as he reached in his pocket,
"here's a penny. Run out and buy
yourself a stick of candy, and don

A HANDSOME HEARSE.
BUGGIEs,
WAGONS,
HARNESS.

"AVING just closed the most sue
III cessful Horse and Mule season we
have ever had, we are devoting our at
tention more particularly to BUGGIES,
WAGONS and HARNESS. Our leaders
are the BABCOCK, COLUMBIA and
JEWEL BUGGIES. Being practical
buggy users ourselves we think we
KNOW what we are talking about
when we say they are without equal In
each of their grades.
We sell OLDS WAGONS. They have
but two faults. Carry too much weight
and run too light.
On hands we have few SECOND
HAND BUGGIES that MUST be sold.

A LARGE ORDER.-The man from the
country took his green necktie and his
best girl into the restaurant, and, like
some other men. he was disposed to be
facetious at the walters expense.
Waiter" he said. Il want you to
bring me a boiled elephant"
"Yessir." replied the waiter, perfectly
unmoved.
And, waiter, bring it on toast"
"YeSSir."
Then he stood there like statue for
minute.
We'll, said the man, "are you not
going to bring it?"
''YeSSir."
why don't you. then?"
Order is. sir that we get pay in ad-
vance for elephants, sir. Elephant on
toast, sir. is G1. 800 0S. I'd. If you take
it without toast. sir. it is only tl.5Oo
sir"
The waiter did not smile: but the girl
did. and the man climbed down.-Lon-

REMEMBER THE DEAD
THE LIVING CARE FOR
THEMSELVES.

wv HEN you remember the dead of
w your family, you show to the
world that your love for them Is not
buried with the body. 1t is duty you
owe yourself and to the one that is
gone, to place a neat Monument or
Tombstone over the last resting place
of departed loved ones. To do this the
expense is not great, and 1t shows to
the world that your love for the dead Is
as lasting as stone. If you have rela-
tives buried in unmarked graves do not
let it remain so, when the expense of
marking the grave properly is so small:
Get my prices and see the styles of
work I have to offer you.

7 DO NOT SELL

0NE of those kind Of Organs that
" GOES WRONG or GETS OUT OF
REPAIR If it should happen, then I
go to your house and repair it FREE
OF CHARGE. Many Organ houses ad-
vertise a 25 years guarantee and state
that If sent to their factory 1t will be
repaired free Of charge" All right;
but the boxing and hauling to depot
costs you something and return freight
charges are at least $1,000. Then the
hauling home Is something. I guaran-

Senator Vests Pet AnecdOte.

Senator Vests most famous anecdote
is that of Miss BERTHE Allendale. 1t
was told when the two chambers were
arrayed against each other on the
tariff of 1894, and the House was in
slsting that the country would go
without any tariff act unless the SEN
ate were prepared to forego its own
schedules and adopt those by the
House.
I'm my younger days out west, said
Mr.. Vest, ~ went into a variety
theatre one night.
at was one of those primitive
shows where the stage manager comes
before the footlights without coat or
waistcoat, and with his shirt-sleeves
rolled up to the elbows, to announce
the next number on the programme.
:" Miss BERTHE Allendale, remarked
the stage manager, appearing in one
of the interludes, who has entranced
two hemispheres with her wonderful
vocal powers, will now render, in her
inimitable style, that exquisite vocal
selection entitled Down in the Valley.
IA gentleman In a red flannel shirt
rose in the midst of the audience and
exclaimed in an impressive bass voice,
'Oh thunderl Miss Allendale can't
sing for green apples
"The manager, who had started to
leave the stage, halted and turned. An
ugly light flashed from the eye which
swept the audience and finally rested
on the fact Of the interrupter. Rails
ing one shoulder higher than the
other, letting one hand drift signifi-
cantly toward his hip pocket, and
thrusting his neither jaw forward in a
savage way, he observed with a de-
liberateness which emphasized every
syllable, Nevertheless and notwith-
standing, Miss BERTHE Allendale will
sing Down in the Valley.n
"And she did. So, likewise, never

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP. /.

II. NJ. White is clamOring for mu-
nicipal ownership in Mexico. He
wants to buy the water-works, cleo
tric light and telephone plants all at
the same time.-Kansas City Star.
The LEDGER is not in favor OF mu-
nlcipal ownership as party measure
by any means. We believe that under
certain circumstances, the conditions
being right, that municipal ownership
may be made good thing for a city.
Along this line we believe tat thous-
ands Of dollars can be saved every
year, provided the light, water and
telephone Is under the same manage
ment, no matter whether this man
agement be city, individual or a
corporation. Some people are in
favor of municipal ownership, just
because it is municipal ownership.
Those who investigate find there are
two sides TO this question, and that IL
is very important where the city
owns its light, or water, that the man
agement should be kept out Of pol
itics, and that the enterprise should
start right. We feel sure the city
Council OF Mexico is looking into this
matter carefully and when the propo-
sition Is submitted it will be on a
business basis, and that il will save the
city money, II managed as intended.
