A thin, sickly little man entered
one of the stores in one of our small
towns recently and quietly seated him
self on a convenient chair. One of
the clerks approached and asked if he
wished to purchase anything. ooh,
no. said the man, "I just dropped in
for a few minutes" After half an
hour had passed, the manager of the
store, becoming curious, approached
him and asked what could be lone for
him. "Why nothing that 1 know Of"
said the man. "You see 1 have

me to stay in a quiet place. Noticing
that you do not advertise I thought

Street Car "Humorist" Found That
He Had Run Against the
Wrong Woman.

A young man with a bouquet done
up in tissue paper and a line of talk
he thought was funny came to grief
on a trolley car that runs from New
York to Flushing over the Queens
borough bridge.
The car was crowded and he hung
onto a strap and started to talk to
his nearest ~strap-hanging neighbor.
His conversation was i~nterspersed
with a few jokes that were consider
ed good when 10 Miller was a babe in
arms. Still, he proved they were good
by telling them loudly and getting a
laugh or two. 1t encouraged him, and
he continued:
Now, is a man stood in the middle
OF a bridge that was 200 feet long and
was ten feet high. what would his
name be?" he asked.
The man next to him gave 1t up.

There have been practically no
changes in local market prices in any
line worthy of special mention, except
coffee, which advanced a few cents.
Cottolene declined considerable during
the week. The new crop of beans com
ing on the market has brought about a
slight decline in this staple.
The continued congestion in wheat at
coast points has held back trade here
somewhat, though considerable wheat
is being purchased by the mills.
II is encouraging to note the i'm
prsvement in the lumber market condi-
tons. Lumber products are increasing
in demand and orders are being re

THE cHLoERA SITUATION.

The Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association clears up the cholera
situation, declaring that notwithstand-
ing the somewhat alarming headlines
in some newspapers, there is no cause
for alarm In the first place." says
this authority, those in charge of the
quarantine stations are thoroughly
alive to their responsibility, and there
is little fear of many cases coming to
this country. In addition to the usual
methods of preventing those suffering
from infectious diseases from landing
in this country, the United States pub
lie health and marine hospital service
has made additional regulations for
the present conditions, in that all
steerage passengers arriving from
ports that are likely to be infected
with cholera are subjected to bac-
teriologic examination and detention
until such examination proves that
they are not cholera bacillus carriers
The period of observation has also
been extended from five to ten days. IT
should be remembered, further, that
medical science has so advanced that
even though the epidemic did obtain
foothold in this country, it could
easily be controlled, and the individual
cases managed much better than
would have been the case twenty-five
years ago. To repeat, there is no cause
whatever for alarm"
Assurances of this sort are timely
and are important in preventing fear

1t unwise to attempt close analysis
of the present state of our newspaper
press, both because we are too near
the object and because the press is
passing through transition toward
better standards all along the line. He
predicts smaller papers, more tersely
written.
AS for the ultimate honesty Of Jour-
nalism and its higher function to
guard popular rights, he can not speak
with certainty. although he finds evil
dences of betterment Direct sale OF
news columns Is not SO common as
formerly. and most of the big dailies
have stopped the custom OF accepting
subsidies from politicians. But the
latter custom Is still "a curse of the
country press" He thinks that the in

rection of letting in the light on pub

menace to the freedom of the press
