church with his best girl. Both were
quite handsome and modest. When
the collection was being taken up the
young man explored his pockets and
whispered to the young lady: 1"I

finding nothing, blushed a rosy red as
she stammered: "I'm in the same

From the Nandalia Leader.
Mexico is aping the city and is as
summing quite a metropolitan air. The
square around the Court House has
been paved with brick and a granitold
walk has been placed entirely around
the Court House yard; the yard is be-
ing graded and beautiied and signs
are up to keep of the grass" OF
course some folks are proud Of the
improvements while Others are kicking
about the expense. That is always
the way. Horses will no longer be
hitched around the square and that
part OF town is beginning to look
tip-top, The new cutoff is being
constructed and a SAC, 900 station house
will be erected, it is said. Real estate
is sky high and everybody is glad he is
