Tested by the public authorities. DR..

ways. Whal is our street and alley

The Buffalo Express saws that the
business men of Delevan, Wis, have
taken a unique way to get even with
the Chicago mail order houses.
They paid their local drayman SAC
per month to get the names Of those
who were receiving freight from the
mail order houses. When one of
these parties go into Delevan store
to buy anything on credit he was
refused, no matter how good his
financial standing was. When they
had butter and eggs they were told
to sell their produce TO Montgomery
Ward or Sears & Robucka The
result was that the town was put on
q cash basis, aud the people were
forced to quit trading with the mail
order houses.
HERE is some advice from con-
temporary: Young man, don't ask a
girl to marry you alter dark, when
she Is dressed At to KILL, l viii give
yeu,a recipe which will serve good
purpose. It's this: Cali on her, and
Inadvertently drop and leave glove
on the piano. Return for it the
next morning at nine O'Clock. If she
comes to the door with one shoe and
one slipper on, her hair done up on
curl papers, and is dressed in an old
mother hubbard, my advice to you is
to take to the woods, But II she
comes with a neat house dress on
hair done up and rose IN the top OF
her hair, grab her quick.
