How Romantic!

A peculiar introduction took place
In a Kansas City store. Up In the
bundle.wrappers loft was young
woman whom a young man, who came
in the store frequently, admired. He
wanted to meet her and told one OF
the clerks so several times. Saturday
he was talking to the clerk and, glanc.
ing toward the loft, saw the girl.
There's Miss Blank again." said
the young man. 81 wish could meet
that girl"
81 told her the other day you want
ed to know her" said the clerk, "and
she said she'd be very glad to meet
you. Give me one OF your cards
Wen settle this thing right now"
The young man handed out a card
and the clerk put 1t in the overhead
bundle carrier and sent 1t up to the
girl. She looked down and smiled
The young man smiled back.
There" said the clerk. now you're
introduced"
The young man went out, greatly
pleased.-Kansas City Times.

MADE THEM ALL LAUGH.
Book Must Have Been Funny, but No
One Knew What Is Was.

It must have been a very funny
story! The type looked funny from
across the aisle of the car, the pic
lures looked funny, and the youns
lady who was reading 1t doubled un
in fits of stiHed laughter every few
minutes. The young man In the seal
with her could not help stealing
glance at the pages of the book which
was evidently so funny, but whose
cover was carefully doubled back out
of sight, and soon he began to laugh
as he unblushingly followed the story
page after page, shaking with sup
pressed merriment.
The woman In the seat at right an.
giles became interested and looked
over the girls shoulder Presently
her face broadened into a grin and
soon she was convulsively shaking.
The man In the seat across smiled at
the scene. A boy few seats down
the aisle grinned alphabetically. A
darby still further down showed all
his white teeth. The contagion spread
until the car was nearly on the vdfse
of Mysteries, when the fair readeNgot
up to leave the train, yet no one but
the girl herself had any idea as to
what the book was.

New Wrinkle.


Mathematicians have juggled with
the mystic figures 3, Z and 9 for ages,
and now comes foreign professor"
of the occult science to tell fortune
by "tbe force in a simple numeral"-
the Q. He reminds his victims that II
they multiply any number, short OF a
decimal, by the two figures of the
product added together will make 9.
Thus: Nine times 2 are is, and and
> are 8; 0 times 3 are q, and and 2
are 8; 3 times are As, and and 4
are 9; 9 times are 81, and and s
are 8; Q times are SO. and 3 and
are 8; 9 times are 70, and and 7
are 8; 9 time are 81, and 1 and s are
9. He might have added that any
number in the hundreds Of thousands
multiplied by 8 will give a product
the sum of whose digits is a multiple
Of Q. Take at random-9 times 545
are 1905, the sum of which is 10, and
8 into Is goes times. Take 1850
multiplied by equals 66,16S; the sum
Of the digfts is 81; 9 into q goes
3 times. Oh, there is an immense

Skating Craze Is Raging
Here,
ALL AMfRlCUS IS GOING ANHEEL
Miles of Tiled Pavement Appeal to
Little Skaters and Large One
TOO--RObuSt Kicks Are of
Little Avail.
ALL ANiERlCUS IS GOING AMHEEl

Like matTimony to an osd maid, it
was a long time coming bat it come at
last and Anaericus is going skating.
Years ago .ther towns were inculated
with the skate germ, but Americus
ducked successfully and saved her
neck, likewise her limbs.
But now sfae is up against it good
and strong, at last.
We skate to breakfast and skate to
school, we skate to business as rule;
skate to dinner and skate to church,
and to bed we go with a skateful lurch;
skate! skate? skate.
Several years ago the skate microbe
got in it's fatal work at Albany and
Barron's Lane, whale even. .Cordele and
Vienna rolled lem some and sent the
mertuary records up to the average,
while buying erutches for the cripple.
But Americus slumbered.
Her male citizens rolled the bones
while the DANES rolled their eyes and
hair, but none rolled on skates.
Suddenly, and without warning the
storm breaks and the city, skatorially
is overwhelmed. From Isomville TO
Brooklyn Heights the populace IS
a wheel, and the hum of business is
drowned inBthe whirr and roar of the
skates.
Many fall, and the doctors work
overtime with punctured legs and
broken arms; yet on we skate.
From the little tots, baby girl skaters
of five and six, up to toothless and
hairless spinsters who wept at the news
ofLee's surrend er; coy maidens and
stately matrons fat and fair, the malady
is spreading quite alarmingly.
The iceman skates in with your six
pound bit of ice charged ten while the
butchers boy brings on his skates the
buIlet-proof breakfast steak.
Even the cook skates in an hour late,
If she comes at all.
But Americus enjoys it. Our miles of
smooth, hard tiled pavements form an
endless rink, and little girl tots can
skate to their hearts content without
hurting the walks. And, bless their
hearts, they are doing it, and no old
kicker can stop these girls.

SURVEYS ON STREET RAILWAY

There will be something doing here
THIS week relative to the early prelim-
mary work in establishing that great
electric power plant in Amerlcus. as
well as looking over the grounds for
the electric railway system to be con-
structed under terms Of the company.
Electricians and others will be sent
from New York for the purpose.
For now that the people of Americus
have, by an almost unanimous vote,
ratified the contract made by the city
council, the company is ready to dis
charge its part of the obligation.
AS the Times Recorder stated some
time since, a great power house will be
erected in the northern part of the city,
and here will be installed the modern
and. costly equipment which will
supply power for the electric line,
light the city and pump water.
The erection of the power house will
be the first work of the company as it
IS desired to improve the city's light
ing system and prepare to pump the
water suppy with as little delay as
possible. This done the survey ana
building of the electric street railway
Will follow.
The company is prepared to push
forward the work rapidly when once a
beginning is made.
