THRIFT.

An American woman visiting In London
engaged a cab to convey her to Euston
Station, and urged the cabby to drive
fast, as her time was limited. After
proceeding quarter OF mile at
funeral pace, the passenger warned the
cabby to whip the horse lest she should
lose her train.
He did so, but the speed soon sub
sided to the original pace. Again the
lady demonstrated, saying:
Cant you whip your horse on some
tender part to wake him up a bit? I'm
sure I'll be late"
The 1ehu looked at her moment and
replied soberly, well, miss, I've hit the
pore 'oss all over Is body except rs left

MAKE A NOTE OF IT.

Some one said few days ago in
one of the great eastern papers that
newspapers are not made in a day.
That the great newspapers of the day
are those that have been established
fact in the newspaper world of today.
The Sentinel is fifteen years old.
Wen agree it ought to be better than
il is, but then it will be remembered
that in period of depression oc-
CURING between 1903 and 1890,
when it was a case of life and death
to exist no great advance could be
made. Yet during all that time The
Sentinel, then the only daily publica-
ton in the city was preaching the
gospel of the good time coming for
the Grand valley.
1t continues to make that preach
ment, will do So as long as the pa
per exists, as 1t regards that the first
duty of n newspaper is to boost the
community in which it lives.
Just make note then that the
circulation of The Sentinel is going
up by leaps and bounds. 1t grows
bigger every day. There is n reason
one of them being the fact that
there is but one paper in the city re-
ceiving the Associated Press report
and the other one, of the many that
might be stated, is that more local
news lis printed i'm this paper in one
day than appears in the other in
three days, without all of our locals
are used, which is generally the case.

the effect that Mr.. Loeffler may ac-
