The speaker at the Banquet stood
Before the listening herds
And talked as loudly as he could
And searched his soul for words:
And ehoked and stumbled and for
got
And felt his hair turn gray,
And felt regret that he was not
A thousand miles away.
The listeners in silent pain
Around the table sat
The while the chump with might
and main
Grated through his hat,
And sveryoue, bored through and
through
By the nerve racking fray
Deyoutly wished that he was, too
A thousand miles away.
Our Willie had a little mule
1t followed him to Sunday school.
And VIXEN the choir set out to sing
The mule, it brayed like every
thing.
1t dld the teacher quite provoke
To hear the strains the mule awoke;
1t made the children laugh and
shout
Because it drowned the organ out.
The preacher tried rear attack
And slapped the mule upon his back
Oar Willie now goes every year
TO lay rose on preachers bier.
Upo& the marble shaft we read
Here lies man of Cody creed
Who slapped the wrong end of
the male

three pair of domestic stockings that
a woman pays 81. 90 fer will go up to
$l.25. The proposed tariff lays a du.
~ or tax of about 30 cents per pair up
on the cheapest gloves imported and
about 80 cents per pair on medium
grades. This proposed tariff on gloves
is practically prohibitive and will re-
suit in creating a glove trust in the
United States and the government will
get no revenue from the importation,
because there will be none. American
women will contribute to the pocket
of this glove and hosiery trust that
will be created the American treasury
will get nothing. Hosiery" also in
cludes socks and men will be affected
just as much as are the women. In
stead of paving So. 90 for a decent pair
of gloves, men will pay about $2 80.
No longer will we get three pair of
socks for 81. 90, unless they are com
mon American socks, but we ourselves
will have to pay 81. 90 per pair or go
sockless. Life would be possible to
men going without gloves and going
without socks. but the spectacle of
women, gloveless and sockless, would
be appalling Commercial Appeal.

What is believed to be the longest
word to be found in any dictionary
one that leaves even German andDutch
hopelessly out of it-may be turned
up in Liddel and Scott's lexicon by
those who can read Greek characters.
Those who can not may be content TO
know that this word, which begins
Observation-Disclosures. proceeds
in like manner through seventy eight
syllables, and counts 10 letters in all.
OF course, no ancient Greek ever used
such a word as this in ordinary con-
versation. 1t is comic word invent
ed by Aristophanes for rhythmical de.
livery in one of his plays, and means
a dish compounded of all sorts of fish,
flesh, fowl and sauces. which are
enumerated In the word. The most
ingenious English translation of it yet
suggested is hash.

Already the breath of the season has
wrought its effect upon the stores in
Lexington. New merchandise has
given to counters and shevles bright,
fresh lock that fairly radiates the
spirit of spring. New garments
marSels of beauty, every one, new hats
that are a dream OF loveliness, new
dress goods in bright. cheerful summer
shades, and all the accessories of my
lady's spring wardrobe are here wait
ing to acquaint her with fashion S sur
prises and delights for the coming
season. In gracce, in trimness and
smartnes, in fabric beauty, in perfec-
tion of tailoring. none better are to be
found in stores in othsr towns. The
style changes for those of the past sea-
son are subtle rather than radical.
Yet there are novelty touches, moditi-
cations and Celebrations, little mas
ter strokes of designing genius which
enhance and perfect the charms of new
spring goods. Bnt we are not poet
nor painter. 1t is not for us to de-
scribe the graceful lines and rich color
beauties of the new goods displayed
by the merchants of Lexington. They
are here for you to see-to touch-ad-
mire-and buy at prices which tempt
