Cause and Effect.

1t is said there has been a big
slump in the sales of the Dawson dis
pensary, and the people of Terrell
are wondering what is the cause.
They don't know to what to attrib-
ute the decrease. l shouldn't think
they would have far to go to learn
the reason when the mayor of Daw-
son fines a fellow $16 for plain
drunk. Such a tariff is calculated
to keep men sober and reduce the
consumption of whisky.-Macon Tel

One Way of Selecting Wife.

An Iowa man has a plan for i'm
provement on trial marriages, as
advocated by Mrs. Elsie Clews Par
sons. He says that wives ought to
be selected by a committee OF com
petent judges, preferably stockmen.
Il do not believe in love matches,
he says, but that man should Sc
lect wife just as he would Here
ford. a Durham or a Duroc. To
prove his sincerity he is willing that
a committee of cattle raisers shall
select a wife for him; and he is a
rich man, too. There will doubtless
he some candidates.

ANOTHER SPOT ON OLD GLORY.

Oklahoma's star will be added to
the flag on July 4th next if the for
nal admission of that state into the
union takes place before that time.
Tee war and navy departments have
agreed upon the arrangement of the
forty-six stars, to accommodate the
new one, and to make it easy to
add two more when New Mexico and
Arizona are admitted. The plan
provides for four rows of eight stars
each, and two rows of seven stars
each. The rows of seven are the
second and the fifth. The rows Of
seven can be made into rows of
eight when the other territories are
admitted, and the arrangement will
then be absolutely regular.
