A FAIR WARNING.
Mark Twain's Interview with Ills
future Father-in-Inw.

Future Father-in-1aw
Mrs. Samuel Clemens was Miss Olivia
Langdon. For some years before she
met Mr.. Clemens she had been con
fined to her bed with what was be-
lieved to be an incurable disease, but
she was at length miraculously re-
stored to health. The cure was the
sensation OF Elmira, N. Y, and young
Clemens, then a newspaper reporter,
was sen there to interview Miss Lang
con on her recovery.
lie obtained the interview for his
newspaper and brought back impress
sions of more value to himself.
Miss Langdon's parents were at first
strongly opposed to the young news
paper man, and, for his part, bis timid-
ity, so it is sclemnly said, stood in the
way of the progress of his suit. But
finally he screwed up courage to speak
to MI. Langdon and one morning timid-
ly entered his future father-in-law's
private office, where that man was
seated at work.
"Mr. Langdon - have you noticed
anything - between - your daughter -
and-me?"
Nor shouted the Directing parent,
wheeling sharply around SO as to get a
tull view Of his visitor.
"Well," said the young nan as he
turned to the door, ready for instant
fight. "if you--keep a-sEarp-lookout
-you-will!'

AMENDMENT NO. S.
A Light, Temporary Tax for Much
Needed New Capitol Building.

The voters of the State should
bear in mind, at the coming elec-
ton, and vote for Constitutional
Amendment No. 5, providing for
the creation of a special fund for
the building of a new State Capt.
tol. The middle section of the
present building was erected in
the year 1898, and the additions at
the end were made about twenty
years ago. 1t is inadequate for
the present and future wants of
the State; besides, is not fire.
proof structure, and is lacking in
vaults and other facilities for the
proper care and keeping of the
public records of the State. The
adjoining States Of Iowa, Kansas,
and Illinois have all fine modern
State capitols, erected in recent
years, and which reflect credit on
the citizens of those States. Ar
kansas has one in the course of
construction. Missouri outranks
all of these States with the excep-
ton of Illinois in population and
wealth, and exceeds Illinois in
area. The contemplated tax for
the new State Capitol is neither a
permanent nor a heavy one. 1t is
to continue for only five years,
and if the amendment is adopted,
will be cents on 100 dollars as
sessed valuation of property; that
is, each taxpayer will pay forty
cents on each one thousand dol
lars Of property valuation during
the five year period. 1t is esti-
mated that it will take at least ten
years to complete the new build
ing, and that the contemplated
rate Of taxation will in said period
raise a fund of about So, 900;
sufficient to erect an up-to- date
modern structure-one that will be
a credit to the State and the pride
of all Missourians. Vote Yes.

cooperative Creamery.

The cooperative creamery sys-
tenn makes COWS pay by MAX
ing more butter, which brings more
per pound from the same quantity
of milk. By this system the seper-
ator extracts all of the cream from
the milk, and the cream is ripened
evenly at the factory. All of the
butter is obtained from the cream
so that four or five pounds of but
ter is made from each hundred
pounds of milk, instead of two OF
three, which the farmer averages.
Again the separator expels from
the cream all the impurities which
may be in the milk, thus enabling
the factory to produce fine gilt
edge butter for the Elgin market.
The butter being produced in large
quantities, perfectly uniform in
color, sailing, flavor and grain
always commands a ready sale fol
cash at the highest market price.
Taking as a basis the way the
cows are fed now, and the way
that they are handled, there is 9
loss OF from S26 to $50 per COW
each year that can be saved by 6

objection can be urged against it

and it is true with the farmer as
we'll as the business man. Did
you ever think that the only two
things on the farm that pays cash
is the COW and hen? They pay
for their feed every day and a
profit besides.
Did you ever think that the
same amount of feed that would
produce a pound of dressed beef
would produce in the cow a pound
of butter; the butter worth as a
rule three or four times as muchi
Did you ever notice that for twenty

Fred Ruble has returned home.
Uncle Dick has been here and
thinks he can beat Marion Lewis

know Lewis; have lived with him
for years and no stories go at this
stage of the campaign. If Uncle D.
has no better judgment than to as
sert things that are not true, he
does not possess a judicial mind

there would be different times and
roads. Well, | guess there would.
But don't think the county wants
the kind Of times he would make,
Now there IS no use in him or any
other Republican coming around
here preaching better roads, etc.,
for we all know better, and are not
so easily influenced to bite atevery
thing that comes along, for the
bible says hold fast to that which
is good, and we know that the
men we are going to vote for are
all honest and upright, for we have
known them long enough to find
them out. Why, ! heard VIM

any one else but Whitworth and
Polk, and we all second it, for we
all see where his head is level

SNOWY CANDtEMAS.

! Forty days after Christmas comes
candlemas. when, according to popular
I superstition, the wolf, the badger and
! the bear ask no odds of the weather
bureau, but come out Of their holes to do
a little demonstrating OF their own ac-
count
IN Germany there are two proverbial ex-
pressions to convey the common idea
The Shepherd would rather see the wolf
enter his stable on Candlemas Day than
the sun" and THE badger peeps out of
his hole on Candlemas Day. and when
he finds snow he walks abroad; but if
he secs the sun shining he draws back
into his hole"
In this country the small boy, an apt
student of local folk lore and tradition, ad-
justs his latest shoe string watch fob and
remarks, oracularly, We'll. ef the wood
chuck kin see his shadder today when he
comes out'n his hole an looks aroun that
means a long winter yet. Pa says so"
Nor is this belief that good weather on
CandIemas Day is the index OF a con-
tinuance of winter and Of bad crops to
follow, or that a stormy day is the har-
binger of early spring, matter Of To-
cality. -
The same idea is expressed in Latin
distich given by Sir Thomas Brown in his
Vulgar Errors"
81 Sol splendescat Maria purifcante,
Major crit glacies past fstune guam fuit
ante,
while the Scotch embody their conclusions
in the following rhyme:
fFaDdIayY7ac TOay- no dry and fair
The half o winters to come and mair;
If Candlemas Day be wet and foul.
The half o winters gone at YuIe
quite similar is the Middle Vests
rhymed version of the popular belief:
As far as the sun shines out on Candle
mas Day.
SO will the snow blow in before May;
As far as the snow blows on Candlemas
Day,
So viii the sun shine out before May.
The name CandIemas is supposed to be
derived from the blessing of the candles
by the Romish clergy and their distribu- |
ton among the congregation, who after
ward carry them in procession.
In England during Catholic times a
special meaning was attached to the size I
of the candles and the manner in which
they burned during the procession. If /.
any fragment was left over it was be /.
lieycd to be possessed of strong super /
natural virtues.
Scotland is especially rich in curious /
customs relative to Candlcmas, which is
