The late jeff Hudson of Fredonia,
Kan, who came from Boone county,
Ind, used to tell this yarn, bearing
on the incredulity as to what might
exist outside the neighborhood where
going to mill was a long journey and
a trip to the country seat was ven
ture into q far country: Jimmy
Smith ran away from horne, went clear
into Illinois. returned and the relatives
were invited in and a feast spread,
where Jimmy announced that he had
been 100 miles from home. The clan
did not grasp this enormous distance,
and finally Jimmy said, Wy. pap, 100
miles is so fur that folks don't use talk

PIG. ATE UP HIS LEDGERs
How Poor Pat, the Australian Saloon
Keeper, Lost All His Stand
ing Accounts.

In a small town in Queensland,
Australia, an Irishman kept a dinky
saloon where the boys would occa-
sionally congregate for round or
two of jollity. There we're those
anon" us cattlemen who would
sometimes be short of change and
would tell Pat to charge up the bill.
Often our accounts with him would
run for months.
One day two Of us went to the
saloon, just after having completed
a big sale, and we thought we'd
square up accounts with the trustful
landlord. Informing Pat of our in
tention, he went into back room as
usual to figure up our standing. In
a minute he returned, moaning pitt
fully, wringing his hands and ours
ing the fates.

These are the days Of system. The
patrons of the systematic institution
get lots OF healthful exercise.
A patron goes into a systematic es-
Establishment and up to the first win
dow he comes to. He misses his guess.
That is what makes it so fascinating.
He tries another window and miss
es. Then he tries to tag the girl at
still another window. lie makes a
desperate effort to catch her, but
somehow or other the girl seems a
long way off. and he can only call to
her and wave at her across the weary
distance.
She explains briefly and emphati-
cally that Department z is the one
for him and that Department z is the
third or fourth or some other aisle to
the right or left, he isn't sure which.
He gets the benefit of physical cul-
ture for while and then emerges
into an alcOve. At last he catches
a girl who stamps a piece of paper
for him. He has only to take the
piece of paper to another window and
he IL done.
He comes to several windows where
there Is no one. It is evidently a
holiday at these windows. At other
windows are people. but 1t is not their
business to wait on him.
He has had quite an invigorating
walk by the time he gets around to
the grand business window where the
thing Is transacted which he has
came to transact.

window is a youth with a voice that
goes up and down like an elevator |
But he is strictly business. He fixes
