young Partisan financier, a man of
wealth and fashion, had for several
weeks been suffering from a painful
malady of the eyes and was threat
ened with blindness. The most learn

could divine the cause of the mystic
rious malady. One day he made the
discovery that following the occa-

brilliantly red pajsmas he was par
ticularly affected. He took this pair
OF pajamas to the Pasteur institute.
The doctors at the institute extracted
the color from the garment and inoc-

One day a well-known politician
was enjoying a chat with friend at

man came up and said

The young man led him across the
room, and seemed to have something
important to say to him. Arrived In
a corner, the stranger whispered in
the politicians ear:
II am on the staff of an evening

me what you think of the situation

Mr. Dash looked a little puzzled at
first, then he said:

"Why, man, suppose you want to call

"But you surely want to call up

they don't amount to shucks."
Three days passed, and the agent
who had made the last and best offer
was in despair. He could have Of

to do it. 1t had been tried by other
men and brought them bad turning
down.
'In the name of heaven, man, what
is II you want?" he finally asked as
he determined on a last effort.
Nothing tall neighbor," he calmly
replied

But I'm ready to make a legal
agreement, and the company will back
me. Write out whatever seems good
to you"
We'll, that's talking to the point"
replied the Judge, and the agent was
asked to call the next day.
The man was only too glad to do
so. He found an agreement that not
only gave the judge the constant use
of telephone for two years, with all
repairs to be made with promptness
and without expense TO him, but IL
was stated that he had the first call
on the wire, and that he was not to

was TO be at his command.

WIDOWS BY
WIRE
By CLAUDINE SISSON

Two separate telephone companies,
each striving for the business, EN-
tered the village of Milford at the
same time. The inhabitants well
coined the agents, but at the same
time saw the opportunity to get cheap
communication with the outside
world. The agent of one company re-
duced rates a fourth, but no one
would sign a contract. The second
agent went one-fourth better, but still
no signers. There were twenty-five
families that wanted telephones, and
half a dozen farmers would follow
suit. but all were waiting for Judge
Wragg!
Judge Wragg was justice of the
peace, and the big man of Milford.
What he said went. In this instance,
he advised the people to wait until he
gave the word. The Judge was sixty
years old, but hale and hearty. lie
was a widower, and was always talk
ing of getting married. and folks said
that the reason he didn't marry was
because he considered 1t too hard
work to ride around the country and
do the preliminary counting.
The telephone agents soon made up
their minds that they must do some
thing special for the judge to get an
other subscriber. One of them finally
offered him low rates, and then no
rates at all, but the big man of the
town thought the matter over for half
a day and then replied:
mo. I guess not Come to think OF
1t, postal cards cost only a penny
apiece, and If want to hold commu'
nication with any one l can do II
through the postoffice. A little slow
er, n.ebbe, but more satisfactory. In
speaking through the telephone one
is liable to make mistakes, but In
writing it's different. No, | guess

But We'll keep 'em in repair al

He got the wire and he got the
widow. He told the widow who he
was. and that he had some thoughts
of marrying. She replied that she
hadn't, and called him an old fool be-
sides.
Cant expect to hit 'em first time

to your listening to the converse

1t was brief and spicy. The Judge
said he had heard through tin-ped-
dler that she might be induced to en-
ter the matrimonial state again, and
in reply she exclaimed
81 don't know whether you are a
young fool or an old one, but | do
know that if l had my hands in your
hair I'd make you bald-headed afore
l let go!"
"Now, widow-now, widow!" chided
the Judge, seems TO me to be a
plain, straight question-do you want
to marry or not?"

"Oh, all right. No harm done. l

thirty, and I'm not bit discouraged"
Central was then called up to ring
for number three.
81 don't understand this thing at
ALL" replied the girl in charge. Here
are half dozen people wanting to
use the wire, and you seem to think 1t
belongs to you alone"
And If you don't think so after
reading my contract I'll eat my hat!
That's what l got a contract for-so
that | could seem to own the wire.
Just tend right to your knitting, sissy,
or you'll be looking for another job"
Central telephoned to headquarters
for instructions, and the contract was
looked up. She was told that the
Judge had legal rights which must be
respected, and from nine o'clock In
the morning until seven at night, he
was calling up widows. Next day the
company engaged lawyer to make a
bluff, but 1t was promptly called
Then the Judge was offered $500 to
cancel the contract, but he. shook his
head and began calling up old maids
The bride was raised TO a thousand
dollars, but without avail. The com.
pany stood 10 lose every subscriber
in town, and it was lineman who
finally solved the problem.
Easy as grease" he said. Find a
widow who is willing to marry him
and he'll have no more use for the
telephone"
The man was right, and the judge
still lives, and is happy with his sec.
ond wife.

These little things may be the means
of saving the entire contents OF the
cellar
If the potatoes incline to rot, sort
carefully and put in no questionable

If the winter squashes are picked

will be much more apt to mold and

The solid heads need not be put into

them if you do not And it is aston
ishing how much stuff Of this kind
chickens require to keep them at their
best. Give them the parings now and

If you have more stuff than you

COOPERATION is URGED

lions on Potatoes Alone.

Madison-"If the farmers of Wis
consin would cooperate and market
their own potatoes, figuring three
cents a bushel as a conservative saw
ing to them, they would save nearly
s1,000,000 year." is. the statement
of representative of the Wisconsin
state board of public affairs.
at is a safe estimate he ex-
claimed, that five cents a bushel
represents the increased profit real
lied by the farmers selling to the
wholesalers and consumers in the
cities through their warehouse oper-
ations. One farmer has not enough
potatoes to make it worth while for
a wholesaler to do business with him.
The individual farmer usually sells
his crop to the small local dealer,
who in turn disposes of it to a job
Der. And neither the producer nor
the consumer profits by such an ar
rangement, for the potatoes pass
through too many hands How diff
ferent is the situation when farmers
combine their cooperation and put
up warehouses and deal directly with
the wholesaler, the retailer or con-
sumer."
