Andrew G. Phillips the proprietor
of Nesbitt Farm at Ralstcn has
troubles of his own today, the result
of pre-meditated visit by Messrs.
Eugene Carroll, Frank ". milford,
Harrie Wolf and d. r. Sturges who re-
Gently voted to descend upon Ralston
MS the place most likely to yield large
returns for their annual foraging ex-
cursion. Proprietor Phillips wisely
kept his poultry under lock and key
during the visit of the Nimrods. The
large bags of game which the party
say will be surely forthcoming upon
their return is explained by the TACT
that Mr.. milford who has been pay
ing strict attention to hunting since
the opening of the season, has had a
fine assortment of birds in cold stor-
age which it is said he draws from as
occasion may require.
That the visitors had good time
goes without saying, for no one can
pull the latch string at Ralston with
different result.

An up-to. date Mail Box.

Letter carrier George DeGroot has
proved himself to be quite genius as
to inventions. His latest work in this
line is an automatic mail box upon
which he has just been granted patent.
The object of this box is to prevent the
robbing of the mails, to protect the
government from loss of time, and to
be sure the collections are made on
schedule time The moment the box is
opened the year, day OF month. time,
number of the box, and the number of
the collector is registered on a tape in
the post Office A special feature of the
box is the locking device which locks
itself after schedule hours at night and
cannot be opened until the time of col
lection in the morning-not even with a
key. MIR. DeGroot has been highly COM
D imented on this invention by the
Scientific American"

The other morning as the s. % flyer
was starting from Morristown an
elderly man, who looked like gentle
man, walked down the aisle of rather
crowded car, and pausing at seat
already occupied by handsome young
lady said:
May sit here?"
The lady, with acqulescent move
ment drew away her skirts. but instead
of seating himself. the man contin.
ued: -
May sit next the window as ]
wish to read my pap er?''
With instant compliance and a
twinkle Of amusement in her eye,
she arose and was moving toward
another seat when the usurper ex-
claimed
"Oh, don't let me take your seat. =
In graceful composure the young lady
replied, also have paper to read, :
as she accepted seat, next window

THE USUAL RESULT.

The talk about sympathetic strikes
reminds Chief arthur of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers of one
that he conducted when only a boy
working on farm. He relates The
force of hands had dwindled to two,
a fellow named Joe and me. The
farmer decided to discharge the other
fellow, wherenpon Joe suggested
that should stop work also, leaving
the farmer in fix. This did. I
went out on sympathetic strike; but
the result was that the farmer hired
Joe back again and was left out in
the cold. -

Thanksgiving Proclamation.

Gov. voorhees, has issued his thanks
giving proclamation as follows:
1.-THE nation will not soon forget
the year which draws near to It's
close. It's sorrow for its fallen leader
will linger long.
.sYet it has cause to remember the
goodness Of Him in whose hands is
+he ordering of all events. In the time
of shock and distress it's life was III
His keeping. He brought it safe de-
liverance. Its people have known
peace and prosperity. Plenty has
abided in their homes. Reward be-
yond compare has crowned their
labors. Grim want and lurking pesti-
lence have been far from them. Their
love of county has been renewed, and
"a they cross the threshold OF the CEN
fury just begun they have cause to
hope that He will not suffer liberty,
Justice and charity to perish in the
land
"It is meet to MS who have been
the objects of His care and His good.
ness to make suitable acknowledgment
thereof.
Therefore. I, Foster M. Voorhees,,
Governor of the State of New Jersey,
do hereby recommend that on Thurs
day. the twenty eighth day OF the pre-
sent November, the people OF this
State forego, so far as they can, their
usual lab ,rs. and at their homes and
with their families and in places OF
religious worship, by deeds of devo-
ton and kindness express their thanks
to Him who rules the destinies OF all
for his goodness to our nation, our
State and its people, and ask that His
favor may not be withheld in time to
come. +"

A Safe way to Garry Honey.

n o0AO way " Sdh iAOAOys
Various means of carrying money
safely have been adopted by Morris
tonians when starting ON long trips,
but none perhaps-more satisfactory to
many who have tried than the use Of
monev orders. This is doubtless new
to many, for most people who buy
money orders do so to send money
away.
They can be used to carry in place
of money, and are absolutely SAFE
Some who go to Europe carry their
money in this way, believing it safer
and more convenient way than almost
any other.
A person buys money order at his
post office for the amount he wishes
to use on trip, drawing the order
payable to himself at the post Office
where he is going. If he wants to be
very sure of Identification at the pay
ing Office he sends his name on slip
of paper in a letter to the postmaster
there. On presenting the order he
gets his money, for at glance his
name on the order and the name on
the slip are seen to tally, and there
can be no question as to his identity.
If his pockets are picked he needs
only to notify the Office to stop pay
ment on the money order. Pickpockets
are likely to bother carrying off
q money ordcr when the difficulty Of
being identified is SO apparent, but if
they should, the owner of the money
is still secure.
