He Wanted to Spit.

OF the late Captain Charles Barr, the
famous yachtman, Marblehead tobac-
conist said the other day: captain Barr
was almost as famous for his neatness as
for his seamanship. One summer ne
took a cottage in the country. 1t was a
marvel of neatness-yelvet lawns, bright
flower beds, red fences, and the cottage
was snow white, with green shutters.
Gan old shipmate was invited down in
August over Sunday. Saturday night, al
ter their supper of hot brown bread and
baked beans, the two friends sat on green
wicker chairs on the tidy piazza smoking
good cigars. The visitor on finishing his
cigar tossed the butt down on the grass.
"'What did you do that for, George /?
said Captain Barr. Look at it smould-
ering down there. Don't it look nasty on
the nice green grass p
George turned red
az don't think anybody would notice
little thing like that said he.
"George,' said Captain Barr, it's Just
these little things that make neatness and
order, and neatness and order are big
part of success.
George, who had never been very
successful man, smiled sarcastically. He
said nothing, but little later he got up
and hurried down the neat white path and
out of the gate. He was gone quarter
of an hour.
where the dickens have you been ?
said Captain Barr, uneasily, on his return.
"'Only just down to the hollow said
George, to spit in the river. "

Sound Enjoyment.

The spirit of modern life is to plunge
into experiences vigorously and get the
most from them. This was the spirit that
animated the man who preferred tough
beefsteak because there was more "chew
to it."
Similarly virile was the attitude OF Mr..
Skillings, who had come TO town to order
a new family carriage.
"Now, suppose you want rubber
tires?" said the agent.
mo, sir" replied Mr. Skillings. "My
folks amt that kind. When we're riding
we want to know it"

In the police court, at Detroit, Mich,
Justice Jeffries upheld the right of farm
er to administer the old-fashioned spank
ing 10 his seventeen-year-old daughter,
even if her dignity suffered. Margaret
Granzin had her father arrested for dis
turbing the peace by spanking her. Gran
Yin said the punishment was part Of an eff
fort to keep his daughter away from cheap
theaters, and the justice decided that
spanking young women of Twas all right

Telephone Service for
the Farmer!

A telephone may be only convenience
to a city man, it is a necessity to the
Farmer. Think what il means TO SIT at
home and be in instant communication
with your neighbors, the stores in town,
your doctor, in fact, the whole world.
Self preservation is the first law OF nature.
II is almost criminal for farmer to be
without phone.
Does 5 cents a day seem so very much
to pay for all the comfort and profit OF a
telephone on the farm ?
A postal, or a call by telephone, will
bring an agent to see you.
