Frederick. who recently sued the Hag-
erstown Fair Association for 500 for

Mr.. Rosenstock made several entries
in the Poultry Department and instruct
ed the association to sell a certain

would have cost him 800. G. A,

Christmas Day Observance.

AS December 2sth, Christmas Day,
comes on Sunday this year. some ques-
ton has arisen as to whether the day
would be celebrated on Saturday or Mon
day in the suspension of business.
Bankers say that Monday will be the
day observed.
This will, in fact. be a legal holiday,
and all business will be suspended with
full legal force as to maturing bank paper
and other obligations.
The banks, financial institutions and
trade exchanges will close. Federal
Offices will suspend, except for a few
mail deliveries from the postoffices and
the keeping open of the stamp division
for a few stated hours, to be later an
nounced This will give Monday, the
10Th the full effect of legal holiday.
The same is true Of Monday, Ianuar,
and, as New Years day also falls OF
Sunday.

She Gould Help Herself.

DR.. G. Herbert Richards, president Of
the Grange Board Of Health, tells this
one:
"A very bashful young man was drlv-
ing with his best girl one cool Sunday
The young lady used all Of her arts to
make him spoon, but failed, and, de-
spairing, became silent and preoccuped.
What's the matter?' asked the young
man when the silence became oppressive.
{" Nobody loves me, said the young
lady, tearfully and my hands are cold.
" Pm surprised to hear you say that,
said the young man. God loves you
and your mother loves you, and, as for
your hands being cold. YOU can sit on
them. '-Newark Star.

stepmother of Mint .IuIen

Romance and poetry have delighted
to weave garlands with which to cele
brate and perpetuate the glory of the
blue grass in old Kentucky, famed for
its fine horses, beautiful women and
mint.
Kentucky has been designated as
the home of the mint julep, and its
colonies have become famous all over
the world for the easy and graceful
way In which they drink whisky with
a little dash of sugar and a sprig or
two of mint In order, chiefly to over.
come the necessity for large amount
of water in the beverage The true
Kentuckian doesn't want his whisky
drowned.
1t transpires, however, that the real
home of the mint and the mint julep
is right here In Missouri, whose crop
of mint last year amounted to 1858
pounds, or enough to make 1,224,320
1uleps. This amount includes the mar
keted product only, no account having
been taken Of the countless thousands
of juleps which were compounded dur
ing the year with base of the undi-
luted moonshine whisky that never
paid a cent of tax.-St. Louis Star.

vERAcITY or THE BIBLE
After a Wait to the Holy Land Even
a Skeptle Must Be Con-
WINGED.

One thing cannot fail to impress
every visitor to Bethlehem, and, in
deed, to the Holy Land generally, who
Is imbued with true Christian faith
and a proper sense of the sanctity
Of the location and Of the events that
have transpired there, and that is the
more than remarkable correspondence
between the things and places shown
us today as having been associated
with the life and work of the Saviour
and other events that enter into the
structure Of our religious faith and
the descriptions and accounts of them,
as furnished us In the pages of the
Holy Scriptures. They agree with
them in every respect and 1t Is i'm
possible, after carefully considering
and comparing them, to doubt their
Identity, so exactly are they in accord
with the Bible narrative.
The work In the fields, the arrange
ment of the buildings, the very arti-
cles Of diet and clothing of ancient
days are plainly recognizable in the
NOAh6o anu VI 1u-
deed, where modern methods have not
become obtrusive the manners and
customs of the people remain much
the same as In the days of the pres
ence on earth of the Saviour. Be-
tween the descriptions given in the
Bible of localities, climatic and geo
graphical conditions, distances, ETC.,
of these times and those of today
there is hardly any discrepancy. Even
a skeptic, considering this remarkable
accord of circumstances with the
Biblical narrative, cannot but be con-
vinced of its veracity; to the believer
1t comes as a wonderful conviction,
a satisfactory confederation or en-
couragement to see things as those
who described them 80 graphically
saw them so long ago.-Columbian
Magazine.

The Cat Came Home.

The story of a cats remarkable
Journey comes from Wycombe Marsh
Buckinghamshire, England, which
seems to indicate a marvellous sense
of direction. Some few weeks ago the
feline went amissing. The owner sur.
missed that the animal had been stolen
or had strayed away, but the other
day communication was received from
some friends to the effect that the
cat had returned to its old home at
st. Neotas, Huntingdonshire, dis
lance of about 80 miles.
