The Grocers' Dream.

Last evening | was talking
With a grocer aged and gray,
Who told me of a dream he had.
think twas Christmas day.
While s~noozing in his office.
The vision came to view.
For he saw an angel enter,
Dressed in garments white and new.
Said the angel, Tin from heaven,
The Lord just sent me down,
To bring you up to glory
And put on your golden crown.
You've been a friend to every one.
And worked hard night and day.
You have supported many thousand
And from few received your pay.
$50 we wan you up In glory,
For you have labored hard,
And the good Lord is preparing.
Your eternal, just reward
Then the anger and the grocer
Started up towards glory's gate,
But when passing close to Hades,
The angel murmured, wait"
81 have a place to show you.
It's the hottest place in hell,
Where the ones who never paid you
In torment always dwell"
And behold, the grocer saw there
His old customers by the score.
And grabbing up a chair and fan,
He wished for nothing more;
But was bound to sit int watch them
And they'd sizzle. and burn,1
And his eyes would rest or debtors,
Whichever way they'd turn.
Said the angel. Come on, grocer,
There's the pearly gate | see"
But the grocer only muttered,
This is heaven enough for me-"

\lD you ever look up the meaning
IL of the words "Price" and Cost?
We venture you'd be interested, even
surprised.
price" originally meant not money, not CASH
but Reward, Praise, Worth. In the days of
Caesar they called it "Pretium."
Cost" comes from the old Icelander word
"Koster," signifying to Choose, to Test, to
Prove.
So price" is really the Worth of the thing sold.
Cost" means how we'll the thing bought proves
up in actual use.
So we're not SO far off the track today, for when you
buv paint, the Price of it should be the measure of its
usefulness, in appearance and wear. Its Cost to you
will be how we'll it stands the test you put 1t to-. Ii 1t
does we'll, it's cheap; if not, you paid too much.
Measured by this, poor paint costs far, far more than
good paint; never worth the price asked and never
stands the test Of wear.
There's one house paint made that's worth the price
and stands the test, and that's HORSE SHOE
BRAND HOUSE PAINT,-best lead, zinc, aged
linseed oil, Japan, coloring matter and nothing elses
honest materials, honestly prepared, sold on honor.
Seven gallons of HORSE SHOE PAINT covers as
much surface as ten gallons of ordinary paint and
covers it longer.
Then. too. there's a full line of good HORSE SHOE BRAND
Paint Specialtes-HORSE H BRAND Paint for the Barn,
for the Roof, for the Porch, for the Floor, for Inside Walls. Screens
for Buggies, Wagons-in fact, for everything.
When you're ready to buy paint or paint specnties, and want the
Prize and the Cost both right as we'll as the Paint, just remember
that here IS one store where you'll find what you're looking tor.

TOBACCO DISAPPEARS.
Farmer aelleves Night Riders stole
 He Crop.

Lexington, Ky, March 14.-The confsca- tfon of tobacco is a new feature developed by the night riders in the Burley to- bacco district. Charles Donovan of Mid" way had so0O pounds of tobacco stored in (a barn on James Bucks farm, north of Midway and some time during the night. the tobacco was removed in wagons.
 Hearing of the news of the burning of a barn on Harris farm. Donavon visited tho one in which his tobacco had been stored, only to find it empty. Tracks from wagons and many horse tracks told tho story of a visit of the riders" So quietly had the removal been ac- complished that the tenant who lived within q short distance knew nothing of H. The tobacco was pooled with the so- sooiety of equity and Donovan cannot understand what caused the riders to ooufiscate it.

 One of the features of the barn burn ing was the fact that George Graddy, victim of the incendiaries, was sec- retary of the Law and Order league of Woodford county, while Governor Will- son was given his first experience with the riders.
 Governor Wilson and party Of members of the general assembly were returning from Lexington, where they had attended theatre, and when the traction car on which they were riding reached McKees cross roads they passed right through the party Of raiders who had gathered in full force there evidently for the purpose or pro- ceeding on their evenings work or destruction.

THE MARES OF MAHOMET. Severe Test by Which the Best Wore
 Selected.

From Country Life.
 In bygone dass teese was no more en. thusiastc breeder Of horses than the Prophet Mahomet In the course of time he became the owner of a vast number, of mares and the point was how to ar-' rive at a selection of the very best. At last he hit upon the following scheme: For three days and nights the mares were kept without water then they were loosed, and as might have been expected. tore madly off to their usual watering place. Just as they were on the very brink of the water the trumpeter blew the war signal or assembly. Maddened with the thirst the mares forgot their training, all save five, who, forgetting their own urgent need, galloped back at once to seek their masters
 These five mares were set apart by Mahomet as representing the pick of his stud. and from them, we are told, de- scended the best and noblest breed of horses.
