Mrs. Albap Gilbert's AZ and shower
for Miss Massey Thursday afternoon
was charmingly novel. Nasturtiums
frightened the pretty rooms that were
filled with groups of merry girls in the
ARREST of June's sartorial blossoms.
Tints of yellow were in the refresh
ments. After the game and refresh.
ments Mrs. Gilbert presented Miss
Massey with a small laundry basket
and escorted her to the side yard
There on clothesline, secured by
clothes pins, was a goodly array of fine
hosiery in various tints from deep
black to snowy white. Nothing is
dearer to girlish hearts than silken
hosiery and this bride "took her
clothes off the line" with delight.

LITTLE JOE
Gen. StoueaoaH

The foundation for this story
dates back many, many years, yes
back to the time when the writer was
a small boy, living in an eastern state
on farm. Next to us lived a fami-
ly whom l shall call Mr.. and Mrs.
W., who had a boy about my own
age and who was my boyhood COM
panion. We use to play marbles
together, go blackberrying, go fish
ing and hunting and used to be
sweet on the same girl, but she mar
ried another fellow. His name was
Joe. We had been to the school
house that day-a country school,
which we afterward attended
together. We were too young at the
time my story opens, as neither of us
were FIVE years Of age. 1t was in
November 1864, and the nights had
become tinged with frost. | had
hidden Joe good afternoon at our
gate and he had, started home.
Mother had just given us supper and
had repaired to the sitting room
where father and we children were,
when there was an alarm at the
gate, and his father said: Joe is
lostp
Instead of going home after leav-
ing us; hearing his father chopping
in a near by clearing he had tried to
go to him, but had become lost; going
farther and farther into the woods,
and as it grew darker he became wild
with fear. Every farmer within five
miles was notified and in few
hours there were but few in the
neighborhood who had not been
forced into service: Forced did |
say? 1t was a willing force. The
mother was in despair, for her son
was lost. Companies were formed
and searching parties sent out in
every direction. Three gun shots
were to be the signal if found. With
torches in hand every nook and COR
ner for miles around was thoroughly
searched during that night and no
little Joe was found.
Mother had been with Joe's moth
er all night trying to console her,
but she wrung her hands and cried:
Oh Joe Oh Joe |" All the next
day the search was kept up, but no
signs Of little Joe. There was small
lake near by and it was. dragged,

|perusal Of the Shoe and Leather
trade journals hold out no hope for
cheaper shoes. The Shoe and Leath-
| er Gazette for August devotes more
than one-half Of its pages on pleas
for higher prices. "A page editorial
on Let us get more profit" is on the
first page and short articles follow
from dealers all over the country
explaining why prices should be in
creased. This is not encouraging
news for the workingman who al
ready has an empty dinner pail.
A st. Louis shoe dealer relates
how he increased his profits, and his
story is a good example of how IN
nocent and ignorant purchasers can
be swindled and humbuged. The
dealer bought a lot Of white canvas
boots for $500, and marked them to
sell for S.. 90 many customers when
shown the shoe wantedS something
better at higher price, so he raised
the price to $4.00; then to $500 and
had no difficulty in disposing of all he
had. This dealer closes his story
with advice to all shoe dealers to
raise their prices and be satisfied
with nothing less than $50 per cent.
profit.
Numerous Congressional inyesti-
eating committees have been inves-
tigating the Good" trusts that years
of Republican. rule have SO endeared
to the American public. Now the
latest news is that the Shoe Machin-
cry Trust is being investigated by
the Massachusettsle legislature and has
also been indicted by the Federal
grand jury. Mr.. Jones of the Com
monwealth Shoe and Leather Co.,
challenged the U. S. Machinery Co.,
to successfully refute his testimony,
showing it is impossible for a shoe
manufacturer to continue in business
if he used machines made by indie
pendent concerns. Hurrah for the
people! Well get our rights, all
right, all right. Yes, when the lion
and the unicorn, the wolf and the
lamb shall dwell in harmony and
peace.

the Joke proved to be on them.
They procured the wings OF butter
fly, the body of a grasshopper, and
the rest of various other insects.
Then they carefully glued it togetn-
er, and when complete 1t looked q
very imposing insect. Taking 1t to
the Professor they asked him II he
could tell them what species OF In
sect it was. The Professor looked
at the insect, then at the young
men. Finally he asked: DID it
hum when you caught it?'' Ger
tainly," replied both the youths.
Then it is humbug said the Pro-
fessor."
BALLAD OF VEGETABLES.
A potato went on a mash
And sought an onion bed;
That's pie for me!' observed the
squash
And all the beets turned red.
Go way!" the onion weeping cried,
Your love / cannot be;
The pumpkin be your lawful bride,
You cantaloup with me-"
But onward still the tuber came,
And lay down at her feet.
You caulifower by any name
And it will smell as wheat;
And I, too, am early rose,
And you I've come to see;
So don't turnip your lovely nose
But spinachat with me-
I do not carrot all to wed,
So go, sir, if you pleased
The modest onion meekly said
And lettuce, pray, have peas.
Go think that you have never seen
Myself, or smelled nv sigh:
Too long maiden have been,
For favors in your rye"
All, spare cuss!'' the tuber prayed;
My cherryshed bride you'll be;
You are the only weeping maid
That's currant now with metz
And as the willy tuber spoke
He caught her by surprise,
And giving her an artichoke
Devoured her with his eyes.
If silence is golden, every man
who leaves here must have con-
siderable stake.
