Forgot To Get His License.

There was a slight interruption to
the dow of eloquence Saturday after
noon on the southwest corner of
Tenth and Main streets where an
orator was telling the merits of the
genuine Hot Springs diamonds. These
gems are not exactly real diamonds,
but they are so near the genuine
that they cannot be told by an eX-
pert even with the aid of a micro
scope. They are set in special metal
which is light as aluminium, looks
like gold and does not tarnish.
There Is no foil or coating on the
back, they will stand the acid test
and last a life time, The regular
price is $500; but IN order that they
may be generally introduced they
are now sold for the rediculously low
sum of % cents each, and with each
and every one sold goes a watch
chain. easily worth $500, and a gold
ring and a pair Of cuff buttons and a
set of four shirt buttons and a heap
of good will,
Well, the gentleman who was fav-
oring the public by giving it the OPP
p|ortuuity to get acquainted with
these gems had taken out a city Ii
cense, but had forgot about Lafay-
cite county. So an emissary from
the sherif's Office took him in tow and
with the audience gazing on in awe
conducted him to the court house,
where he produced the necessary six,
He again mounted the standard and
continued in his beuefactory work,
