WHY Jimmy Didn't Sit Down.
The woman who had shopped until
the closing gong had sounded stood at
the transfer station and awaited the
suburban trolley.
"What," she YEARLY asked herself,
"does It profit o woman If she gain
the elusive bargain and loses every
trace Of physical freshnessT
Presently the car came along. IL
had the usual crowd Of humanity. and
the woman resignedly prepared TO
stand, when a grlmy youth arose and
rendered her his place. Protesting
family, she sank into It guilty aud
registered a vow never 70 shop over
time again.
In due time several seats were yacat-
ed and the woman looked hopefully
toward her knight.
Jimmy" q fiicnd OF his was saying,
there's room inside now. Why don't
you sit down.
And the last drop Of discomfort was
added to the woman's cup Of humilla-
ton when Jimmy responded.
Jaw. what's the use. No sooner I'll
get me legs stretched when another
tired old hen will get on and Til have

Watson changed his sign and replaced

Tnara and JoY.

Under the title Tears Of JOY
George Friederlci writes to n Berlin
paper that the custom Of weeping and
bowling on all occasions Of great JOY
was general among the early inhabit-
ants OF America" and that In many
tribes visited by him in South America
the approved form of welcome was
still to weep. "Tears of welcome" he
says, are also shed by the natives Of
the Caribbean islands and by the
Sioux, Algonquins and other North
American Indians. From all that
have seen, judge that in times past
tears and JOY were inseparable and
that the emotion which civilized peo-
pie now display at parting was once
the expression of hearty welcome"

into some sort of altercation this even
ing, for Jim drew revolver and shot
Tom.
Persons who heard the shot ran into
the kitchen, where they found Tom ly-
ing upon the floor, dangerously
wounded. Jim was quickly disarmed
and then bound with ropes. He will
remain tied until officers from Wells or
Elko come and get him.
