GATHERED BY THE wAYsIDE

One of Mankato's well known citizens
delights in telling of the amazement of a
woman from the south, who was visit
ing at Worcester Mass, and happened
to go to market to purchase some pota-
toes. The market man doled out ey-
erything by weight. No resident of that
community ever thought of such thing
as buying peck or a bushel of pota
toes. 1t was always a pound, or two or
three pounds, as the case might be. The
southern lady ordered five pounds, and
more from curiosity than any other mo-
tive, watched the vender weigh out the
tubers. The scale would not balance
with the last potato either on or off,
and the man cut off about one third
of that single potato to produce the
exact weight. The lady's instincts of
southern hospitality and liberaity were
previously shocked.
A lady from Owatonna was coming
this way to visit Mankato friend
few days ago. As the train stopped at
Mankato Junction, she alighted and pro-
ceeded to inquire her friends where
abouts by means of the name and adj
dress. Discovering her mistake, she
boldly determined to punish herself for
her want of care, and trod the ties after
the train all the way to the city.
One of the lady members of the Civ
ic Improvement League engaged a young
man to dig up her flower bed few
days ago, and told him that he must dig
it at least seven inches deep. Having
given her instructions. she went down
town. When she returned she found all
the earth removed from the bed to
a depth of exactly seven inches, the
bottom of the hole being levelled off
with commendable neatness. The earth
was piled up in a symmetrical neap on
the lawn. Her instructions had been car
ried out to the letter.
:
One of the bachelor lawyers of Man
kato, while taking dinner at a restaur-
ant lately, happened to be seated next
to young lady of this city, whom he
knew. The waiter jumped at tn econ
clusion that they had come in together
and were of one party, so he made out
no check for the young lady, but assess
ed the whole amount on the LAWYERS
check. The lawyer paid the full amount
without murmer, and the young lady
maintained an amiable silence on the
subject.
