was a salesman for Joel Gold

One day he was called to show car.
pets to a lady who had plans Of all
the rooms of a house for which she
wished to select suitable carpets.
Thinking it chance for q good
sale, for two hours he showed car
pets, helping her with his Judgment
to make a good choice for each
room, and, having decided on the
he said, "Now we will have
these cut of, and where shall We
send them?"
"Well," the lady said, my hus-
band is looking at lot, and if hs
buys it We shall build this house,
and then we shall want the car
pets"
Mr.. Sweetser was too astonished
to speak, and she walked calmly
from the store after bidding him
good morning.-Boston Herald.

An Irishwoman who owns lit
tie stationery shop in the upper
part of Manhattan frequently sur
prises customers with whom she
falls into conversation over the
counter by asking:
(Which of my eyes do you think
is the blind one?"
The customer invariably exclaims
that surely it is not possible that
either eye is blind, for both are
dark blue, sparkling and seem just
the same: The shopkeeper, howev.
er, proceeds with the information
that the left eye is quite without
sight,
''That's nv tattooed eye," she ex-
plains proudly. '1t cost $1,000. ]

Fire al Indiani0Nn.
Last Thursday rnorni1

Last Thursday morning, Janu'
ary 8, the store occupied by MI
s D Cunningham, at lndiantown
postofice, was destroyed by
fire. The fire broke out about
8 o'clock a M, while the pro-
prietor was at breakfast. 1t
started in a shed.room at the
side of the building, presum-
ably being caused by spark
from the chimney catching the
roof. When discovered the
fire had made such headway
that nothing could be done to
check its progress.
The contents of the building
amounted to probably $1,000 or
more in merchandise, although
it is impossible to arrive at an
exact estimate, as Mr. Cunning.
ham was engased in taking
stock when the fireoccurred and
the stock on hani amounted to
over S2,500 as far as he had
gone.
The building belonged to an.
other party and was worth prob.
ably several hundred dollars,
fully protected by insurance,
we understand.

A DELIGHTFUL ENTERTAINMENT.
Mr. and Mrs J N Sturgeon of Lake City
Al Home 10 Their Friends.

LAKE CITY, January NO
brighter event to add to the joy
Gus merriment of the new year,
could have surpassed the one
last Tuesday evening, January
1, when Mr. and Mrs J N Stur-
geon entertained their large host
of friends. There was banished
all that did not pertain to the
jovial and humorous and if any
die not enjoy themselves on
that occasion, it was due to the
fault of themselves, as every
thing possible was done to well
come the guests in the most roy.
al manner.
Among the features which
went to add to the beauty and
finish of the evening were the
piano selections OF Misses
Bernice Hinnant, Eloise Surge
On and Prof Covington; also a
selection of recitations given by
Mr. NJ R Meetze, proved to be OF
great interest. But we must not
forget to mention the guessing
contest, which was very de-
lightfully engaged in by all, and
which consisted of a number of
questions arranged consecutive
ly. The first prize was award
ed to Prof Covington and Miss
Lena Severance, they being the
fortunate ones to give the most
nearly correct answers; and the
BOBBY was won by Mr. Boyd
Thomas and Miss Dora Hinnant.
After this intellectual recrea-
ton, the guests were ushered
into the dining room, waere de-
licious fruits were spread on the
table, beautifully decorated,
and we're enjoyed thoroughly.
At about 11:30, the guests,
after thanking and bestowing
the compliments of the evening
upon their hosts, departed for
home, all feeling they had en-
joyed an evening of pleasure
and hospitality.
Those present were: Misses
Ruth Williams, Bernice, jamie,
Dora and Sallie H:nnant, Helen
B Jones, Ethel Nesmith, Eloise
Sturgeon, Lena Thomas, Lena
