bereft him OF his patriarchial aspect.
It was a long, sad story.
He said he, had climbed into the
chair, told the barber that he wanted
those 40-year-old whiskers neatly
trimmed, not to their loss, but so as
to add to their symmetry and then he
went to sleep.
Rip Van Wrinkle, answering the
call after his 20-year nap, had no such
painful surprise as had Kreutzer when
the barber called him. When he had
dozed away he was the most dignified-
looking Hebrew in East New York.
When he awoke perfectly clean chin
came on the reflex to hts astonished
eye.
He wept, raised his hands In grief
that knew no bounds. The barber
laughed.
In rage and sorrow Kreutzer went
home; His good wife saw a strange
figure coming to the door. His
dog barked at the apparition that
made bold to come at feast time to
disturb the household.
1T is I, Norris" walled the old
man"
DO not the Scriptures direct that
you shall not be shaved?" his wife
stormed. "Out Of my housed"
Sorrowful, the old man turned
away.
Boys in the streets hooted at him.
He was made the butt of all sorts of
gibes and Jokes. Homeless and in bad
repute with his neighbors. the old man
sought Magistrate Hylan. A summons
vas issued for the barber.

THINK PURCHASE A GOOD IDEA.

Brainerd Dispatch: Another merger
the Herald has bought the Democrat
at Little Falls, and will consolidate
the subscription lists, the machinery
and type being for sale. In cities Of
that size the act of absorption IS con-
tinually going on in the business, the
substantial newspapers eventually
taking over the ones that are barely
making living.
Long Prairie Leader: The Little
Falls Herald has bought the Morrison
County Democrat and the two papers
are to be consolidated The Democrat
is one of the old papers of the county
and Is widely known among the state
exchanges. It has been published the
past three years by Messrs. Hobllt &
Konchal. The consolidation leaves
two papers at The Falls but they sup
ply the field in excellent shape.
Journal Press: The Little Falls
Herald has purchased the Democrat of
that city, and the Democrat has been
discontinued. There has been no ex-
cuse for the Democrat for several years
as Little Falls has in the Herald one
OF the strongest weekly papers in the
state, and in the Transcript lively
and enterprising daily. These two
papers are worthy the most liberal
patronage of the Little Falls business
men, and are doing more than all
other agencies to make Little Falls
tavorably known to the country.
st. Cloud Times: The Little Falls
Herald has purchased the business,
subscription list, machinery, type,
good will. etc., of the Morrison
County Democrat and will take over
the plant on Saturday of this week.
1t is the intention of the Herald
owners to consolidate the two scrip
lions lists ana dispose of much of the
machinery and type bought IN the
deal. This is another good move,
both In the interests of the publishers
as we'll as the community. There are
too many newspapers in Minnesota
yet.

The appropriation of 500 for the
street fair, by unanimous action of the
county board, is to be commended.
Although the fair IS held in the city,
in the absence of regular county
organization, it covers much of the
same ground. Exhibitors from all
parts of the county show their pro-
ducts at the street fair, and the
visitors from outside, as we'll as with
in the county, gain Unreasonable
benefit. The same can be said of the
exhibit at the state fair, which pro.
iect should also receive encourage.

and this is an excellent way to do 1t.

will be many a joker discovered after
the bill goes into effect, but the
biggest joker is the boy that promised
downward revision and worked and

Whether the public appreciates these
jokes continually, Will better be

these funny stunts come up for an

No person will deny that every man
ought to have work to do, something
to which he can devote his best ener.
gies and abilities. In this country,
however, we do not seem to have
reached that point where we know
when to stop. The mistaken notion
seems to prevail that the man who &C.
composites his aims must die in the
harness; that, like the captain, he
must stick to the ship till the last.
And when this spirit is applied to the
mere amassing of millions, the pur-
pose, too, becomes sordid and unnat.

commercial battlefield and give over
their remaining years to rational en-.

PECULIAR INCIDENT IN A
RUNAWAY

A rather peculiar incident occurred
last Friday in relation to the runaway
OF s. Subkovlak's team of horses,
After the team became loose from the
wagon, they ran directly west on
Broadway. When they reached
Ledoux's place. one of the horses
jumped the barbed wire fence, and
they ran this way a quarter Of a
mile. until they came to a cross
fence, where they ceased running, and
were separated by some passersby.
How they could do a caper of this
kind and not be torn badly is a
mystery. There was not scratch on
either one Of them.
