Worth the Difference.

A big jobber sent an aspiring young
man on the road to open up a new ter.
ritory where new railroad was going
through. All the towns being new,
there were no hotel acc"r ncdstions,
and II was necessary for l.. salesman
TO secure meals and lodging at restau.
rants. etc. wkere the price was % cents
per meal. On looking over the expense
account the manager noticed all meals
charged at ~ cents
Look here. Charlie; l see you hav.
charged us 10 cents per meal on your
trip. and I am reliably Informed that
II IL impossible to get a meal for more
than % cents In your entire territory

MARRIAGES IN kGxlcO.
The Way They Are Arranged and the
Way the Lovers Meet

The average Mexican does not mink
OF marriage until he has at his disposal
q sum more than moderate, II he hap
pens TO belong to the higher strata Of
society, nor until II Is consented to by
the unanimous vote of every one OF
the members Of the family. Instances
can be mentioned of two young per-
sons who have never met each other and
In whose minds the idea OF matrimony
has never yet entered becoming man
and wife through the whm Of their
parents.
II may be that the family OF the
bridegroom looks upon his matrimonial
union with a certain girl who may hap
pen to be the daughter OF magnate
as a means Of avoiding bank suptcy. II
may be that the father Of the bride
considers her alliance with the son of
a politician as an adroit measure in
preventing the downfall Of the head OF
the house, or In point Of trivial circum-
stances II may be that marriage Is
brought about with the object OF re-
ducing the yearly tax by the father OF
the bridegroom or that of tho bride.
The motives given and those never
given for the prearrangement OF such
alliances vary according to conditions
and are always In relation to the POSI-
ton occupied by the two families.
The frequent brevlty Of the proceed

the part OF parents toward their sons

miles due west of the Mckinley home in Canton. The monument is 163 feet inches in height and is surrounded by dome. It is built of granite. Right under the dome stand the sarcophagi of dark green granite, containing the bodies of the president and Mrs. Me Kinley, and in niches on the north side of the dome are the caskets containing those of the two daughters, Ida and Mary, who died in infancy.
 Halfway down from the top of the 125 granite steps that lead up to the main entrance on the south side of the mausoleum stands heroic bronze fig ure of President Mckinley, represent ing him in the attitude usually as- sumed when speaking-his left hand holding a roll of manuscript and the right hand in the trousers pocket.
 Upon the face of the pedestal are the words of President Wheeler of Califor- mia university quoted in President Roosevelt's address.
 Twenty-six acres of ground have been laid out by landscape garden CTS around the monument. Natural streams flow past the base of the mound. From the entrance to the grounds on the south to the foot of the mound is 59O feet, and along this dis tance a double driveway 175 feet in width has been made. Between the two sides of the driveway is a lagoon.
 The mausoleum and grounds have been built and arranged at a cost of $5OO,OOO .--..
 Address at keokuk.
 In speech delivered in KeolSuk, Ia., President Roosevelt said he did not ad- init that his known intention to punish large moneyed interests which have transgressed the laws was the main cause of the so called financial weak ness, but 1t was a possible contribu- tory cause.
 He was very emphatic in his declara- tion that he would not be swerved from his policies, as heretofore an- nounced.
 'I will do everything" said he, "that can do to help business conditions except anything that is wrong"
