After a Bargain.


It was evident that she was trou-
bled.
~ think l prefer this" she said, in
dicating a ron of cloth on the coun-
ter. "You say it has been marked
down from IL to 10 cents yard?"
Eyes, ma'am," replied the clerk
tits really what l want" she con-
tinued, "but this" and she indicated
another roll, has been marked down
from 1914 cents to 10 cents yard, as
/ understand you?"
Yes, a'am."
Then should think the other
ought to be down to 91a cents"
THAT would be cheaper than we
can afford to sell it, ma'am."
But yen have taken 21a cents off
the price of the other and only 2
cents off this" she protested, taking
up the first roll again. THAT makes
the otGer the better bargain"
Its very cheap at 10 cents a yard,
ma'am."
Il suppose it is, but it isn't as
good bargain as the other"
II can't make it any less"
"Thes suppose | will have to take
the 1915 cent goods. but it seems a
shame when I would rather have the
other. You may give me ten yards"

A pulpit Protest.

A prominent clergyman contends
that there is neither health, sense
nor religion in full mourning. He tells
mis- congregation that bit of black
ribbon, worn in some way, will tell
the story Of bereavement just as well
as a complete mourning suit. A bit
of crepe on the bell pull gives the
hint to those who pass by, and 1t is
not considered necessary to cover the
whole front with drapery. Why, then,
will not bit Of ribbon on cloak or
coat answer the purpose and weight
of useless expense and costume that
is always gloomy, and in warm wealth
er very uncomfortable, be taken from
the shoulders of bereaved mourners?
Christians, he is convinced ought not
to take gloomy view Of death. There
are glorious hopes linked with the
sorrows, and the hopes of those who
are gone before should be symbolized
rather than the sorrows of those who
are left behind. He would have cheer
full garments worn by the mourners
in token of the triumph Of the glori-
fed ones, and a bit of ribbon or crepe
as simple memorial of their own
sense of bereavement. The rest OF
the full mourning he would send to
the. heather, who in their sorrows az
the grave have no hope.

insects Flee From Burning Sandal
wood.

WOOQs
London women have discovered an
agreeable way of Kidding their homes
of flies and mosquitoes.
They burn sandalwood in the house,
an idea imported from the Orient.
In London it is possible to get wood
prepared for that purpose In Amer
lea it is to be had at almost any Turk
ish or Japanese importing house. 1t
isfthen prepared for burning by being
fist cut into small pieces one half
inch thick and three inches long.
Then it is baked or dried out in a
slow oven twenty-four hours. A piece
of the wood is put into metal urn,
lighted and allowed to burn until welt
af1ame, when the flame Is extinguish-
ed and the redhot ember left to smol-
der until the wood is consumed and
nothing is left but heap of fine, gray
ashes.-Chicago Tribune.

Ramsey county farmers are very
jubilant over the prospects for bum
per crop this year. They contend
that the long spell of cold weather is
a blessing in disguise as it has caused
the ground to freeze to an unusual
depth, which will have the effect of
retaining moisture until the growing
season is we'll advanced. The unusu-
ally heavy fall of snow will gil the
lowlands with water and insure a
bountiful hay crop The indications
point to a late spring, but inasmuch
as there was more fall-plowing done
last year than ever before, the farm
ers are not worrying on that score.
The probabilities are that the acreage
sown to wheat will be almost doubled
this year, the outlook for high prices
being very favorable. Flax has been
sucn an unsatisfactory crop for the
past two seasons that the acreage will
be greatly reduced this year.
