Travellers Tales

See that couple" said a local real
| estate man, presumably husband and
wife-sauntering along with uncertain
tread, at hours of the daylight when
| husbands and wives are not wont to
| take an evening stroll or to visit a
friend? They are hunting for house
| in which to make their domicile for the
| coming year.
Behold the pair-the earnest, al
most desperate, woe-be-gone, express
sion on their faces as they stop ever
and anon to read the pIacards upon
the houses they pass. Then they are
seen in close confab, discussing some
thing The purport of that discus
sion is whether or not It is worth while
to stop and investigate further-to go
in, meet the tenant and embarrass her
by walk over the house.
Don't ever cepsure the house hunter
for his or her seeming rudeness in en-
tering the domicile of another and
finding the family rooms before the
housemaid has made the place ready
for the reception of visitors. The visit
is very necessary evil, and more en-
barrassing to the lockers than to the
y W.
is coming, and a move must be made.
I'VE who dwell in homes of your own
be they paIatial or the humble cot
tage, should ever look with compassion
upon the house-hunters so frequently
to be seen at this season of the year
strolling over the streets. Maybe you
yourself were once a house-hunter If
not, you have no positive assurance
that you will not some day be out on
the same mission. Pity the house
hunters and lend to them all the as
sistance and sympathy possible, for
they need it."
A certain Fargo man was asked why
he devoted so much time and attention
to chickens when he knew the profit
as he was carrying it on was so very
small. This was his reply:
zone of my reasons for raising
chickens is to get that which money
cannot buy. That is to clog the wheels
of time, which at my time Of life are
flying at terrific speed. Now l set
Cor sit If you prefer hen, and then
have to wait twenty one days watch
ing for the beautiful brood of little
chicks to come out of their shells
Waiting with an object in view has a
tendency to lengthen the passing days
"On the other hand am carrying a
note in bank renewable every ninety
days. This, as everyone knows who is
situated, vastly accelerates
time. Now this reason and from the
fact that in the absence of child life in
the home, chicken life is the best and
easiest substitute can find. I keep a
dozen or so hens to interest me when
away from my business"

Cooperstown Courier: The incon-
sistency of those republican papers
who refuse to support c. A. Johnson
for governor is laughable to say the
least. Now they are pointing to the
wonderful likeness Of Governor Burke
to Governor Johnson, Of Minnesota,
when as matter of fact there is no
comparison at all. Why didn't The
Cakes Times and a few other papers
bring out these wonderful traits Of
Governor Burke in the primaries and
support him then as we'll as at this
time. The Courier was an ardent sup
porter Of Mr.. Buchanan and would
have been greatly pleased to see him
nominated. But we cannot notice any
material change in the characteristics
of our present governor from the time
of the primary election up to this
time just because Mr.. Buchanan was
not nominated. If he had been nomi-
mated where would all this eulogisnl
Of Governor Burke gone to. We would
never hear from 1T at all. The fact of
the matter is that 1t is anything to
beat Mr.. Johnson with this dissatis-
fed bunch SO they are going to hand
Mr.. Burke a few packages OF sugared
lattery. Governor Burke is too smooth
a politician not to know that the pres
ent support he is getting from these
republican papers is only a legacy
handed down to him as a result of the
defeat of Mr.. Buchanan to be nomi-
mated otherwise nothing would have
been said about his characteristics re-
sembling those of the late Minnesota
governor. You can't fool the people
all the time, boys.

Bisbee Gazette: 1t is really amusing
to note what an ecstacy OF fury
our democratic contemporaries work
themselves into about this man John
son. Among his latest deficiencies is
his nomination by the gang.
Ye gods, what a low estimate our
democratic contemporaries must have
of the intelligence of the republican
voter. Here the republican voters had
five candidates to chose from; the
plurality chose G. A. Johnson as their
standard bearer. Five men went be-
fore the people of the state and asked
for their Suffrage; every republican
voter had his choice, and when alone
with his God and his lead pencil In
the election booth, put his mark after
the mans name he chose. And yet the
cry Of gang is beloved from Burke's
adherents. Verify, what addle Drained
noodles those democrats take the re-
publicans to be.
