night. Carrying his little valise in his
hand, he walked in and out of the de-
pot, hanging on the edges of the group
ing men, who still talked Of the acci-

into the baggage room and, with his
yalise in his hand, drew back the edge
of the sheet and, standing, looked.
Afterward he paused at the door and
spoke to a man who was fixing lam
tern.
"What was his name%
"Shockley. Know him?"
"Me? No. l guess not" He walk
ed away with his valise and drew his
coat up in the wind that swept the plat
form. 81 guess l don't want him." he
muttered to himself. 81 guess they
don't want him-not now" And he
went back to the man and asked when
train left again for Chicago. He had
warrant for Shockley, but Shockley's
warrant had been served.

and poked stealthily at the fire. When

1t was dark, and the wind from the
north was bitter, but he made great
detour into the teeth of it-around by
the coal chutes, long way round, a
long way from the frog of the east
house track switch-and the cold stung
his face as he limped heavily on. At
last by the ice house he turned south
and, reaching the face of the bench,
paused a moment, hesitating on the
side of the earthen stairs. 1t was very
dark. After a bit he walked slowly
down and pushed open the door of his

mother held her slumbering baby in

one of these monkeys slept on his

"Do you seer said the keeper.
'They lie on their sides, on their
stomachs, every which way, but there

never is. No monkey ever was found
sleeping on his back. Sometimes as
[ consider their intelligence and their
manifold virtues it seems to me that
the fact that monkeys never sleep on
their backs is the chief difference be-

Reciprocity tt Home.

Say, now, Mr.. Business man, the
Gazette has been whooping up Kend-
rick for every public enterprise that
is OF any benefit to the town every
time one comes along for years and
years it has tried to help your bus
mess along by telling the truth
about mail order houses and giving
the people your side of the question.
without cost to you, when it would
havs cost many dollars for you to-
have said the same things to so many
people, aud sent it to them. 1t has up
held the home merchants at all times,
and in every way possible, it has not
lost an opportunity to try to bring
trade to you, it has refused advertise
ments time and gain that would
aid the mail order house and tend to
take from home, 1T has end
cred to encourage every industry
at home, and will continue to do Sc,
is theis not true? and as the town pro
spect SO does the country. The town
and country grows along pretty well
together.
Now while the Gazette is helping
every thing along in this manner
what are you doing for 1t? Are you
telling the people that trade with
you that the Gazette is a worthy
paper, and that it ought to go into
every home In the country, do you
tell them it is good clean family
paper and that it is homes institut-
ion that spends all the money it
makes right here at home, and that
it pays more money for wages than
many manufacturing institutions
that it is considered a maufact
oring establishment by the Gov
erment and compelled to make
reports Of It's business as do
other manufacturing establishment
and that home paper ought to en-
courage and patronize all home In
stitutions if the community is there as
a whole? Do you ever think that a
newspaper would affreciate some
.frieudliness by home patronage do
you? Think OF these things and think
OF reciprocity.
In last weeks issue Of the Gazette /
aimed to give the merchants side OF
the question by asking and answer
ing what are the mail order houses
doing for the farmers. This week /
aim to ask what are the people in
this and other communities doing for
one another.
Respectfully,
