RUY YOUR OWN PAPER.

A man who was too economical
to subscribe for his home paper
sent his little boy to borrow the
copy taken by his neighbor. Tn
his haste the boy ran over a 81
stand of bees and in ten minutes
looked like a warty summer squash
His cries reached his father, who
ran to his assistance, and failing
to notice baSbed wire fence, ran
into it, breaking it down, cutting
a handful of flesh from his anato-
my and ruiniEg IS pair of pants.
The old cow took advantage of the
gap in the fence and got into the
cornfeld and killed herself eating
green corn. Hearing ths racket,
the wife went out, upset q four
gallon churn of rich cream into q
basket of kittens, drowning the
whole flock In her hurry she
dropped a $25 set of false teeth.
The baby, left alone, crawled
through the spilled cream aud into
the parier, raining a $50 carpet.
During the excitement the Oldest
daughter ran away with the hired
man, the dog broke up eleven set
ting hens and the calves got out
and chewed the tails off four fine
shirts.-Kansas City-Journal.

Prof. Thomas Nixon Carvar of
Harvard lays down the dictum
that any man who marries on an
income of less than $500 a year
is guilty of a sin against his coun-
try, and suggests that, if possible,
marriages with less than that in
come in sight should be prevented
by law. The Professor evidently
knows very little about country
life in America. There are innu-
merable happy marriages, from
which strong and prosperous fam
lilies sprung, made i'll thu country
districts on less than $500 a year.

Treasury officials note that sill
yer dollars are gradually going out
of use in the West and the South
and that their place is being taken
by dOllar-bills. A few years ago
it was a rare thing to see a dollar
bill west of the Mississippi river,
while in the South silver dollars
were far more plentiful than the
soft money. It seems that the
doom of the silver dollar was
sounded when the government de-
cided that 1T would no longer pay
the freight between sub-treasuries
and banks on the coins.

autumn is falling on the earth, shutting

would result from the fact that the
people of each community would learn
Of the products OF their home place
and better realize how great the adj
vantage would be to utilize those prod
ucts instead of using manufactures
from other places. A Home Industry
day should not be for the business or
the professional people, but should
be a day in which all residents. men.
women and children, could participate
and all become acquainted with the
varied resources of the place The
school children would find visit to
the different factories helpful to them,
give them practical idea of how diff
ferent articles are made and broaden
their views as to business methods.
Home Industry day can be inau-
gurated in any town by the citizens
making a united effort In fact, each
state could by legislative enactment
set aside such a day with great bene-
fit TO the state and its people, and the
establishment of Home Industry day
might mean the saving of millions of
dollars annually to the state. This day
could be made one of real pleasure,
as we'll as a day of education and uni
yersal profit. Refreshments could be
served by enterprising manufacturers,
and other entertainment in the way of
music, etc, could be utilized in ma
king it a day long to be remembered.
