A "GREEN GOODS" LETTER.

Green Forest Citizens Solicited
 to Purchase Some Experience.
 A New York "Green Goods' dealer is seeking the co-opera- ton of business men of Green Forest, two of our citizens hav- ing received sterotyped letters as follows:
 CONFIDENTIAL.
 Friend:-I have reason for be- lieving you to be a shrewd, re- liable and trustworthy man for me to co-operate with in your vicinity, and for that reason take the liberty of making you d proposition that many men would gladly grasp if they could per- sonally examine my work and convince themselves of the ab- solute safety of my offer.
 The writer of this is an expert engraver, having for thirty-o one years been employed in the Bureau of Engraving. Washing ton, D. c. l have spent some years back in the effort to make perfect duplicates of my work while i'll the employ of the gov ernment and have succeeded. My greatest difficulty has been to secure the silk fiber paper, the same as that which the gov ernment uses. In this also l have succeeded. The goods come in sizes of ones, lives and tens; are perfect duplicates of the genuine, and cannot be de- tected by the best bank experts, and then only when they arrive at the treasury in Washington, which is not likely to occur in years, and after passing through 80 many hands then it is impos- sible to trace them.
 Of course, you can have no idea of the quality of my work until you have seen a sample of it; this propose to give you chance to do, on one condition; that is, that you are willing to CO., operate with me in the dis posal of my goods, providing l prove to you beyond all doubt, that my work is all I claim for it. Understand, 1 do not want you to invest one dollar until you have examined my entire stock, compared them with the genuine, and in fact, submit them to any test you see fit, then after you are thoroughly satisfied on every point, you can decide whether you except my proposition or not. The fact is, an investment of $500 or over will give you an immediate return that a life time of toil in your present business will not do; this without injuring your friends, neighbors or your fellow man. To convince you of the safety of the busin ness, 1 will upon receipt of telegram from you as per enclosed copy, send you a sample of my work, and will also appoint d place to meet you, so that you can personally examine my stock.
 Now as this is business which l requires secrecy to insure safety l have a few rules for you to fol- low, the reason for which, will be made clear to you later.
 First-Do not write me a letter under any circumstances, except 1 instruct you to do so.
 Second-I send you enclosed a copy of telegram which you must seHd just as it reads, and | signed with the initials of your name, and on receipt of it 1 will send you sample of my goods, also price list and fuller particu- lars.
 Third-You may send your telegram from any town or place, 1 but be sure to sign the initials of your name and the initials only.
 1T, for any reason, you decide not to engage in this business, trust to your honor as a man not to abuse the confidence I have

reassured me as to the theory that life is worth living.
 Its queer how the gambling instinct runs all through the life down there. I suppose it's partly an effect of the lottery days. The old folks there are welded to their lottery and hundreds of them buy a ticket as regularly as they go to mass, though not quite so often.
 "They all do ia. One exquisite grande dame, with silvery hair and the real thing in soft southern voices, said she would be lost without her lottery ticket
 "'Why,' she said, I consider it the best investment of my life. One dollar! You spend more than that for few hours of greater or less-very often less pleasure at the theater. A few hours! My fun lasts whole month and is de- licious.
 "T spend the money which I am go- ing to draw-of course I am going to draw it--a hundred times month. It keeps my imagination alive. It is al- ways possibility! You say so yourself or most people do-that you are poor that you will always be poor, that there is not one chance in the world for you ever to have one cent whicth you do not earn by hard work.
 "'Don't you see, that is what my lot tery ticket gives mean outlook! There is always the chance. And it puts romance, into days. which would 1 be dull and, as said, keeps my imag- ination young, even though I am get ting old. Why, it's the cheapest thing ] for the money, that ever ran across q never looked at it just that way but can see it now,G It really is a big. ger bargain than playing the races ano | it's worth keeping in mind. You car buy imagination and possibilities, as
 the grande dame said, as long as youl money lasts. ."-New York Sun.

TRUE BORN RFA1LRoAD MEN.

Tim and Lou, thetrwo Sons of J. J.
 @ Hill. ..
 The two sons of J. J, Hill, Jim and Lou" have knuckled down to work since their days in Yale, and their father is proud of their records as railroad men in the ten years since he set their respective noses to the grind stone. Both have risen to responsible pu sitions in the Great Northern sys- tenn, and have shown themselves. worthy of their esponsibilities, without W hat they used to call the "old mans pull"
 Young ''Jim'' TIiD made his first hit as a possible railroad magna.e when he was in college. In those salad days he was not a hard student, and had seve- ral painful interviews with an unsym- pathetic faculty at times. It does no harm in the light of his success to re- cord that a warning or two were sent to the president of the Great Northern system to the effect that more studious application was necessary on the part of the undergraduate in question or his college career might be frosted.

mer vacation was near at hand. and young Jim Hill did not view with en- thusiasm his probable reception at home. His father had taken the situ- ation too seriously for comfort, and had threatened a disastrous embargo on the vacation burget of expenses,
 A master stroke averted the crisis. A thesis was due in the Sheffield Scienti- fic school course, and one of the list of topics offered was ''The Effect of Transportation Systems on the Growth of Cities" Young "Jin'' Hill ar- nounced, Here is where I save my life.' He forsook his cheerful haunts for the university library. He dug out statistics by the carload, and sought chiefly information about the great northwest. He compiled and condensed, andand clipped and copied, and sweat ed, until the result was a thesis that showed in at least a dozen different conclusive ways that the safety of the solar system depended on railway de- velopment, and that the northwest of
 all other parts of the inhabited globe,
 had been developed by railways, and the GFedL INOIIllSili SS55lSlll5 HI PoA ttSsai lar. -.es, < x i
 : The thesis passed the faculty with flying, colors, and was then carefully forwarded by registered mail well ahead of the homecoming of the au- i thor. J. J. Hill was delighted. He slew the fatted calf, and when Young i Jirn' returned to New Haven in the 1 fall he announced that he had had the summer of his life, and a chartered 1 yacht as a token of parental esteem. 1 Tt was the hit of my life" said he 1 Dad has me figured out as the wises1

There's been lots O barges sunk along the island. and the coad can be got at when the rivers down. Then further down the river, on Cow Island, is lot of coal on the bar that they do say once was in the bunkers of a Contede- rate gunboat."
 Whether this is a fact or not is hard to tell, but it is not at all improbable There was a gunboat sunk in that vl- cinity during the battle of Memphis At any rate. several of the squatters were burning coal, and had several sacks of it slowed away for cold wealth CT. They said that they got it from the bar at Cow and Presidents Islands.
