DID IT EVER OCCUR 10 T0U!

Did you ever think to look over list of
young unmarried men of your acquain-
lance, and see how many of them are
really able to support wife, and the con-
sequent family? l am speaking more par
ticularly of the small towns and not of the
farmer, who is king unto himself. The
result of such an investigation would
probably startle you immensely. Not
one-young man in ten, based on very
conservative estimate, is more than able
to take care of himself or has acquired
any property whatever or laid up penny
for the married emergency. They are de-
pending on something to turn up that
will relieve them OF any responsibility, or
believe in the old yet continually refuted
adage, two can live as one. They marry
some Anticipated love-sick girl and trust
to luck to bring them out of the pit that
they have voluntarily dug for themselves,
The result is either divorce or contin-
nal struggle with the gaunt wolf of pow
erty, while the winged dove of love that
thinks in its youthful wisdom that life is
liyable on love and kisses flies out of tile
window to torment into reputation of
the error some other young couple. The
offspring go to help on our criminal list.
II every young man could be brought to
lee that provision for family is one of
the first prerequisites Of such step, the
world will soon be brought to that sought
for millennium, that happy conception
when every man has attained the acme of
greatness-the wisdom Of 10 at the age of

Shocked by Parrots Profanity.

The residents in the vicinity OF
fashionable Avenue A and Fourteenth
street here will take steps to capture
"cussing" poll parrot that for sew
eral days has inhabited a tall tree
near the house of Charles E. Annett,
says dispatch from Bayonne, N. ].
Mr.. Annett was greeted yesterday
with, Hello, uncle! Hello, uncle!"
Thinking one of his nephews was
up the tree, he cried back, Better
come down before you fall and the
parrot answered, go soak your head,
you blankety blank, blank
This angered Mr.. Annett and he de-
cided to chase the boy from the tree.
When he found that he had been
fooled by a parrot he said things. Dur
ing the day policeman and score of
boys tried to capture the bird, but she
flew to the topmost branches. There
she was still "cussing'' tonight.

Hid His Money in the oven.

Chief Burgess John Doll of Pine
Grove, Pa, before going to the circus,
put all his portable wealth, 81 900 in
currency, in cigar box and depos-
tied in in the oven of his cold stove,
which he believed would be out of
commission surely till the Sunday
baking should be done. But Mrs. Doll
concluded to get the Sunday baking
out of the way before her husbands
return. So she heated up the kitchen
stove, piping hot. When she thought
it about right she opened the oven
door, only to find inside the smoking
ashes of a cigar box and something
that looked suspiciously like money
to hurn.'' 1t fairly crumbled as she
touched it, but she got it out of the
oven and smothered the remaining
flames as best she could.
The Burgess will ask Uncle Sam to
put on his best specs and see if he
cam decipher enough of the ashes
currency to redeem it, whole or in
part,

Cat Helped Her Mistress.

A Dover, N. H. woman of very regu-
lar habits is accustomed to go to the
cellar for potatoes at exactly 11:2O
a. m. each day. The other day a
caller interrupted her usual routine
somewhat. The family cat easily
showed uneasiness and after a time
disappeared When the mistress later
went to the stairway in response to
an unusual sound from that locality,
she discovered that the cat had al
ready brought three moderate sized
potatoes from the cellar and was then
struggling with a larger one which
she was trying to carry up the stairs
by grasping one of the sprouts in her
teeth.

Hadn't Noticed Birds Absence.

A curious incident happened in
England recently during wedding.
The vicar, supposing the party to be
complete, began the service, quite I'M
conscious of the fact that the bride
had not arrived. Instead of stopping
him the bridegroom, best man and
others remained silent from sheer
nervousness and presently, when the
bride and her father, who had been
delayed, hurriedly entered. The father
quantity apologized by saying: Eek
cuse me for interrupting; some mis-
take has been made" Explanations
followed and the service was begun
again.

Maple Sugar in Tons.

Some idea of the magnitude OF the
maple sugar industry as carried on in
Vermont may be had from the fact
that at the single station of East
Berkshire Herman Chaffee loaded
twenty-five tons of the sweet and A.
]. Croft loaded eight. At the same
time one buyer alone has gathered up
over forty tons of sugar and two car
loads of strip. The banner sugar
maker of this section is Norman Hoga-
boom of South Richmond, who has
produced 1880 pounds from 1000
trees and sold the whole for $677.70.
