A seedy looking man entered a store
IN Trenton the other day and asked
for assistance, backing up his request
with a long tale Of sickness and lack
of employment.
With a wink at his clerk the mer-
chant pointed TO a friend who hap
pened to be in the place and replied:
ASK that gentleman. He is the pro-
OrietOr. | am only clerk"
The friend received the beggar's re-
quest in a sympathetic manner and,
turning to the merchant, remarked:
"This seems to be a worthy case, Mr..
Jones; give him a dollar from the cash
register" and walked out Of the store.
1t was in vain that the merchant
protested that it had been a joke. So
insistent did the seedy one become that
ode boss" directions should be car
ried out that it was finally necessary
to do so in order to be rid of him.

In the death of Mrs. Sarah w.

was given the prize for being the
Oldest lady present.
A few years ago she prepared her
burial clothes. These were burned
in the fire which destroyed Mr..
Larsen's home last February. Since
then she grieved great deaf over
the loss and at times she could talk
of nothing else.
The deceased was member OF
the Mormon church and she haf
lived most exemplary Christian
life, being loved and respected bJ
all who knew her.
+. Funeral services over the remain
were held at the Georgetown meet

A comparison of the levy this
year with that of year ago reveals
the fact that the levy for state pur-
poses has been increased six cents;
for roads and bridges, s cents, for
county schools, 25 cents, and de-
creased 4 cents for current expenses
and IL cents for warrant redemp-
tion. making a total increase this
year of 90 cents on each $1,000
