The funniest thing is the mishap
of a gentleman whose wife pays the
storebill. He has been in the habit
of having his cigar bill charged as
potatoes, and the other day his wife
took her pencil and began to reckon.
She finally found that they had eat
en- more than ten car loads of pota-
oes and she didn't believe the ac-
count was right. The grocer and
the smoker are now between the up
per and neither millstones, and it is
hard to tell who will be pulverized
the finest at the close.

Express Company Profits.

The eight hundred pounds of pa
per consumed with this issue of the
Tribune cost US just $5. 20 for ex-
press from Minneapolis. We could
not afford to take chances of having
it sent by freight, owing to the
strike. Thus the strike is proving
a benefit to the express company in
the inverse ratio to it's being a hard

The Small Chanqe Counts.

The man who saves something
every year is on the road to pros
perity. 1t may not be possible to
save much. If not, save little.
Do not think that dollar or dime
is too small a sum to lay by. Every
body knows how little expenditures
get away with large sums. But
few seem to know that the rule is
one that works both ways. If a
dime spent here and dollar spent
there soon makes a large hole in a
mans income, so do dimes and dol
lars laid away soon become visable
and a respectable accumulation.
In this country any man can make
himself independent or keep himself
under the harrow for life, according
as he saves or spends his small
change.
''Yes, these are hard times. -
We throw away ashes and buy soap.
We raise dogs and buy hogs. We
grow weeds and buy vegetables and
brooms. We catch fish with 81
rod. We build school houses anc
send our children to be educated
away from home. And at last We
send our boys out with $40 gun ant
a $l9 dog to hunt 10c game.

ions and every comfort attendant
upon such occasions is guaranteed
by the officials. All must go.

While we dc not agree with the
senior Senator from this state on
many questions and do not admire
his way OF talking we do fully agree
with him as to the position he has
taken relative to the $1,000 per

If we are not very much mistaken
the invitation was from Columbia

they not do so without asking help
