of the lakeside villages there dwelt little Vey maiden

the rarity of such capillary phenomena among negroes
Because of this hrsute popularity, because of her
her pccannny and always effervescent good

favorite among all the denizens of the Lake Pesou
country.
One day Mondanas father Blue Fish, came to the
mission hill searching for the child who had been miss

she had gone surreptitous visit to some of her

Accordingly, our guest was called
upon the veranda and the situation
explained to him. He was very in
dignant when told of the fate of
little Mondana, and when | closed
my narration with the assertion that
some of us were going over to Moor
aballyma's village and slap him on
the wrist, and that the said persuasive
incident would be attended with
more or less danger, the young fellow
suddenly forgot his sissy-boy affecta-

In addition to Jones, Seefas-

together, there was quite a num-

us who were inimical to the

HNE Of the best of the friends

nizance during the days
of my scientific incipiency was
the late Professor John Collett,
formerly State geologist of In

ed "Uncle John by many of the
young Hoosiers of thirty-fve
years ago, who were struggling to
master the mysteries of Nature
and using the State museum as
a ways and means. Uncle John
had a collection of skulls repre-
senting many races and con-
ditions of men, and it was one of
our delights to get him started on
lecture on ethnologic phenom-
ena as portrayed in his cranial
aggregation.

load aud get out. isn't Il county seat or
financial ruin for lot Of them2
The whole agitation for county d'-
vision comes from Harlowton.
DO Won find any other community
crazy over the question?
DO you believe the farmers will
agree to tax themselves to death just
to help out a lot of town lot
boomers?
Hariovton has large number OF
good fellows, in fact u great majority
of them are the best to be found any
where. We do not blame them for
making this fight. MetaphOrically
speaking. il means turkey with dress
ing if they win, or bean sandwiches
if they lose. We are sorry for them,
and would gladly help them out if we
were financially able to stand the
great burden Of increased taxation
which they are trying to put upon us.
The next best thing we can offer
them is welcome to the business
circles of Judith Gap, Oxford. Mill.
and Hedgesville. There is room in
these places for most of them. And
it would pay them to sacrifice their
present holdings, quit whistling to
keep up their courage, and accept
this invitation. Their hopes will
never lie realized in their present
situation.
Another thing the farmers should
bear in mind:
lfthey sign the petition soon to be
presented to them, and the election is
held and division fails to carry, as it
surely will, each signer will be held
personally responsible for his proper
tionate share OF the cost Of that cleo
ton. which will be about $1,000. The
HarlowtOn boys are going to put up a.
strong talk to make you sign that petit
ton. but now that you know the rea-
sons why. you can refuse.
Tell them you promised your wife.
or mother. that you would never en-
dOrse another fellows note, and you
couldn't conscientiously sign that
note, whicheit really is.
Tell them that you love them lust
the same. and will always have q high
regard for their hustling ability, but
that you cannot sign, because you
honestly believe your neighbors are
not financially able to stand the
strain it will put upon them, and that
you do not want to do anything that
will put you in bad with your neigh
bOrs.
Tell them that you will have to take
about four years to think it over, and
at the end of that time call around.
You can stop all this division nom
sense by refusing to sign that petit
ton. And that is where you ought
to be firm.
Wouldn't it be better to build
school houses in our own immediate
locality. before undertaking to boost
real estate values in HarlOwtOn?
Don't you think so?

"'iiickey's Pri,ic?" l repeated
thought1ully. 81 cent seem to recall
that one. Do l sIi-oke it often?'
Jenkins seemed to gasp.
You? Certainly not, sir! Never"
And, by Jove, he turned pale! Any
how, he looked devilish queer as he
put his hands down on the table and
bent to whisper:
Mr.. Lightnut. sir" And the way
he dropped his voice and turned his
head to peer around into the corners
was just creepy! That's what, creepy!
This, with the glow from the green
lampshade OH his pale face as he
leaned across the tabie-oh, it was
something gha.;t.y--aTful, you know!
1t got on my nerves, and could feel
the hair slowly rising on each side OF
my part. He bent close, whispering
behind his hand, and l knew he had
been eating radishes for dinner:
Its what's know N the trade, sir,
as a 'twofer.'"
"a 'twofer!'" repeated, puzzled.
sTwo for five, sir" Jenkins spoke

rather husky:

He paused, his fingers resting trem-

With a murmured apology, Jenkins
paused to wipe his forehead. l saw
that the perspiration had gathered in
great drops. Then he seemed to
gather himself for resolute effort,
his eyes fixing themselves upon me
with the most extraordinary express
eion-kind of half-frightened, half-des-
pcrate g!2re-that sort of thing, don't
you know. l began to feel devilish
uncomfortable and edged away.
And he made another plunge: "They
sent him"
And, dash me If he didn't stick
again! 1t just looked like he couldn't
get past. But encouraged him-just
like you have to do horse, you know
and this time he got over:
"They sent him a dozen boxes OF
'Hickey's Pride sir, instead"
He spoke in a low, choking voice
and looked me full in the eye--the
kind of look you get when chaps
boxing with you, you know-that sort
OF thing.
