A Bargain for Farmers

The New York Tribune Farmer, .
national illustrated agricultural weekly
Of twenty large pages, has no superior
as thoroughly practical and helpful
publication for the farmer and every
member OF his family, and the pub
fishers are determined to give IL = cir
culstion unequailed by any paper u
its class in the United States.
Knowing that every enterprising. up
to-date farmer always reads his own
local weekly newspaper, The New York
Tribune Farmer has made an exceed
ingly liberal arrangement which on
ables us to offer the two papers at so
low price that no farmer can afford
to lose the opportunity.
The price of The New York Tribune
Farmer Is si.o0 year and The Canon
City RycoRp is SIPS year. but both
papers will be sent for full year u
you will forward sl.50 to The Canon
City RECORD.
Send your name and address to The
New York Tribune Farmer, New York
City, and a specimen copy Of that
paper will be mailed TO you.

Some People Wou1d
Like the Job

From present indications the Post
master General will not have much
difficulty in securing the services of a
good man for postmaster here next
term.
The present postmaster s term does
not expire until next July but there
are already several who have gener-
ously offered their services for the po-.
sition.
The present postmaster. Mr., Guy u.
Hardy, will be an applicant for reap
pointment. His chances ought to be
good. He has served three years and
half very acceptably to both the de-
partment and patrons and he stands
well with the Republican party work
ers. Many people have volunteered
their support during the past week
Adam Dryden has been thinking
about the place some time and has
quite number of names on a petition
urging him for the appointment. He
is an old resident and is well and ia
vorably known here.
Hiram Backus has considered the
place worth having and has friends who
would be glad to see him taken care of.
Col Dougan has been feeling around
to see how people would like to see him
or his wife in charge of the institution.
E. w. Thomas announces that he is
candidate and would like to have the
support of his friends for the place.
He is clerk IN the office at the pres
ent time.
There are others. but us they have
not made public their intentions it is
not up to us to do so. 1t is certainly
gratifying TO know that the post office
will not be closed when the present
term expires but we will have some
one to open up the mails and hand out
the stamps to the occasional purchaser.

Case Against Dave Argyle Is Set Down
for Trial Next Week.

SEATTLE, Wash, Dec. 9.-DaVe w
Argyle, who before the state law max
ing gambling a felony went into eff
feet, was one of the big gamblers of
Seattle, will be tried before a jury in
Judge Tallman'S court on December
r. Argyle was arrested in a raid on a
big gambling establishment at George

In a haberdasher's store one day this
week. Rounder noticed a man enter
who opened it up with one of the clerks
something like this:
Say, my young friend, unite that
parcel. 1t contains some things my
wife bought for me yesterday and 1
want to exchange 'em if you will allow
it,"
The clerk willingly started in to
comply with his customers request
and when the package was opened
prize parcel of shirts and neckwear
was exhibited for sure. The quality
of the stuff was all right. But the
colors! Run along and sell your pa
pers! In the neckties pink and canary
hues had the undisputed right of way,
while, so far as the shirts were con-
cerned, peacock blue or some such
similar color was the whole show. At
ter a satisfactory exchange had been
concluded and the man had departed
Rounder, born inquisitive, asked the
clerk if he had many such customers
as the one he had just waited on.
Yes, such exchanges as just now
made are a common everyday occur
renee with u.s. he replied.
You see it's this way" he went on,
many married men leave the buying
of their shirts, collars, ETC., to their
wives-at least it is my experience
that they do after they have been
married some years."
Without giving Rounder sufficient
time to reflect on the information
conveyed in the final clause of his last
remark, the clerk continued:
Ladies as a rule are good shoppers
and we are always, pleased to wait on
'em. Most of 'em know just what will
be- But while all this is true there
are some ladies who can never hit it
right when it comes to their husbands
taste in neckwear and shirts. Why,
that man 1 just fixed up is a regular
'exchanger' and among our customers
we have many others. And here is
something, too, not a few of the 'ex-
changes similar to the one you just
saw, are made rather stealthily, and
the first purchasers never hear of it.
Guess the men find that that is the
easiest way out of tat least the
younger married men do for they are
the ones who usually caution US to
say nothing
When through putting his goods
away the clerk started in to hand out
some additional 'informa- on regarding
exchanges but ROunder had to go

Rounder has stacked up against some
queer ones up to date, and his expert
ence may not have been the widest at
that But the peculiarities of people
that one is likely to run across is Of
ten discussed by those who have con-
tractei the discussing habit. A bust
ness man? Rounder was talking to the
other day admitted that he didn't read
any of the local papers-in fact, or any
outside daily papers. Couldn't spare
the time to do any such thing, etc.
This man, Rounder believes, is making
a serious. mistake. Let him follow his
present course long enough and his
little world will become SO narrow and
infinitesimally small that life to him
will become great burden-Or else
he will be a burden to any friends
he can lay claim to. In fact, such a
man who can do his three-score and
ten without mixing it up with the
padded cell will do exceedingly well. A
man owes it to himself and to the
community in which he lives to keep
posted on the events of the day. And
the best way he can keep posted is to
try and arrange for a few minutes
each day to look over a daily paper.
And if he happens to live in Walla
Walla he might do worse things than
to make it a Walla Walla paper
say, one that is published in the even
ing.
