IS pardonable, but the self-conceited

SURPRISE MARRIAGE.
Popular Couple Quietly Go to Par.
sonage and Get Married.

Quite a surprise was caused We'd
nesday when 1t was announced that a
popular couple were married Tuesday
night. 1t was hard to spot the couple
at first. 1t soon leaked out, however,
that the ones referred to were Mr.,
Francis Ives, the popular bookeeper
for Sibert's Drug Store, and Miss
Christine Williamson. A few friends
had been invited to meet them at the
Methodist parsonage. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. M. w. Hook,
pastor of the First Methodist church.
The young couple have a host of
friends here who wish them all man
ner of happiness and prosperity.

What We Are Or Are Not.

The longer we live, the more we
learn, and the more we learn, the
less we think we know. Such Is the
inconsistency of mans ideas. The
less one knows the greater his opin-
ion of his abilities and wisdom. In
the morning of life a conceited man
prides himself on his greatness, and
wonders to what grand channel he
will confine his talents. He looks
upon his school district as the world
at large, and himself as the great
genius in whose keeping the worlds
nature rests. He imagines that when
he speaks, nations tremble, noun
tains totter and the sea becomes si-
lent.
He imagines that a gaping and
wondering populace are gazing on
him with Open-mouthed wonder and
iron-clad establishment, and that he
holds the world in the hollow of his
hand with a grasp that is perpetual.
But as days, and months, and years
pass In rapid succession, the young
man finds out that he is possibly
mistaken and if he would wander
away and get lost some one or more
Of all the people on the earth would
not miss him. By and by he begins
to realize that he is only one of the
Of stading forth as the center of at
traction, he only fills a small niche

SLOW NEW YORK.
It Actually Made the Hustling Western
Barber Sleepy.


Why say" said a visiting barber
from the wide untrammeled west. you
folks here in New York are narrow,
limited. shackled, contracted, far be-
hind the age. You think you are the
human limit when really your gait is
very slow.
Il went into one of your shops here
yesterday. Nice shop, good equip
ment, everything fine and elegant, but
when | saw how slow you were here
good plant, but not worked to capacity.
"They had man in a chair with a
barber cutting his hair and a mani
cure fixing his hands and a bootblack
backing his shoes all at the same
time, and / suppose you think here
that that's going some to have three
people work on customer all at once,
butt goodness me, you ought to look
into my shop and see how we do things
in my part Of the country!
I've got shop that's every bit as
modern and up to date to the last linz
it as anything you've got in New
York. but out there we utilize our
plant. What do you suppose we do
when a man comes in that's in hur-
ry to catch a train? Think we all lie
down and take a nap?
why, we put one barber to cutting
his hair and another to shaving him.
and two manicurers tackle his hands,
one en- each side. We take off his
shoes, and two boys work on them
each backing a single shoe, while two
chiropodists get at him, each taking
a foot. and at the same time we have
one boy brushing the customers hat
and another brushing his overcoat,
while another dusts the clothes he's
get on with a vacuum buster.
You put three people on man at
once and think you're doing something.
We put on eleven and think nothing
about it at all, and our town amt

THE JURY DISAGREED.
A Fine Point In Equity That Never
Was Decided.

Was Decided.
An old time story of the fine points
of law and equity which arose in car
rying out an amicable contract is told
in the Philadelphia Record. There
were four brothers who had inherited
storage warehouse from their father.
He had divided the property equally
among them.
Among the appurtenances was a cat
"a fine animal, excellent for housing.
This, too, was divided, the eldest
brother owning the right front quar-
ter, the second brother the left front
quarter and the younger brothers the
two hind quarters.
Now, unfortunately, the cat in one
of its nocturnal prowls injured the
right front paw. and the eldest
brother attended to that portion of his
property by binding the injured mem
Der with a creased rag.
The cat, thankful for this relief to
its sufferings, went to sleep content
eddy before the fire, but in the midst
of its slumbers a falling coal ignited
the rag, and the animal, bowling with
agony dashed through the warehouse
and, coming in contact with some CON-
bustibles, set the building on fire.
When the loss came to be figured
out the three younger brothers wished
to throw it all upon the eldest on the
ground that had he not tied up bis
part Of the cat with the inflammable
rag the building would not have been
destroyed.
He, on the contrary, contended that
had the cat only been possessed of the
front right paw-his property-it
would have stood still and burned to
death. 1t was the three other paws
that caused the damage.
. The brothers argued the case until
they died, but they never reached an
agreement.

AN IMPosTOR's TRICK.
The Cheerful Liar That Made roo'
of the Grand Monarch.

T,onis XIV. was taken in once In a
most humillating way and by an I'M
postor whose only art was lying. IN
16f7 inst after he had returned from
one of his most dazzling military sue
cesscs against the Dutch, Louis ie
Grand received word that an embassy
from Persia had just landed at Mar
settles EN- route to the French court 20
hiring salutations and presents from
the shah. Pleased that his fame
should actually have run around the
world, he sent word that all the towns
on The way from Marseilles to Paris
should fete the ambassador.
AS result the journey to Paris was
a march of triumph. Children sang
and flowers were strewn along the
way. Arrived at Paris, several regi-
ments of the Swiss guard met the
sbab's representative and escorted him
TO magnificent suit in the old palace
of the TuiIeries. Louis sent no less
a person than the Due de Richeileu 10
welcome the potentate and invite hlm
ont to Versailles to a special reception
in the hall of mirrors
The ambassador presented himseli
as RIA Bey Of the Persian court and
after showing his credentials ad-
yanced to kiss the hand of Louis lie
Grand and give him the shah's con-
ordinations Oh his recent victories.
A caravan of presents from his I'm
perial sovereign were on their way
and would arrive in Paris in rev
DAYS. said the ambassador.
Festivals followed at Versailles. The
hey received magnificent presents from
Louis and royal entertainment, lie
lounged gracefully on divans at the
French court and smoked in Persian
languor He gave the grand monarque
a few fragments of opal and turquoise
saying that they came from Persian
district bordering on the Caspian sea.
The woods there were full of them, he
explained, and he offered to divide
with France-had planted the trench
flag there already, as 1t were!
At last the day came for the formal
presentation Of the shah's gifts, and
on that morning early Ria Bey melted
into space. He was never seen or
heard of again. He had, as some one
said. gone glimmering through the
dream of things that were" The
gems that he had left were worth, If
anything, about 10 cents apiece, being
glass.-New York Tribune,
