Old-fashioned, hard-headed people

Some have devoted more or less time
to this department-but as at present

work than anything else.
This is causing more or less COM

Travellers Tales

Nate ELLIS, who travels out Of Duluth

was in the city this week, selling his
goods, or making the attempt to sell
as he puts It. He says he was riding
on train a few days ago running from
Duluth to this city when he ran out of
matches and was actually suffering for
smoke. He had gone through the car
and had asked ali of the occupants Of
the smoker for match, but strange

entire crowd. He was desperate. and
the more he thought about the needed
match the greater was his desire for
that light and smoke.
He grew moody and sat down by a.

Ellis didn't say word to the stranger
for quite while and the man hardly
looked in his direction. They sat Tins
for maybe half an hour, when the man
suddenly arose and went over to the
washstand that was in the corner OF
the car, and there he stood and Mr..
Ellis saw him putting something in his
mouth. He appeared to be ramming
MS mouth full. Then he took from his
pocket match, and at this the would

glad to see, too. that Mr.. Hatton would dseour-
