A TALE OF A HAT

Things seemed to be going against
Mike. A mountain of circumstantial
evidence had been brought against
him to prove him guilty of an awful
crime. Then was produced in court
a hat, found at the scene of the
crime, which had been bought at
the shop Mike usually pi, .ronized and
which fitted him to T.
Still Mike swore that he had not
been within five miles of the place on
the night in question, and so vehe-
ment were his protestations that,
contrary to the evidence, the jury
acquitted him. Yet still Mike fingered
in the dock.
why don't you go, my MANI"
asked the Judge. "You need not stay
there no longerv'
But Mike stood hs ground.
'I'm wishful for to go, yer honor"
said he. But before l do, I'll be
troublin' you for my hat, if yer
plaze!"

NOT TAKING ANY

Farmer Fitch was at his wits end!
The hay was ready to be cut and
stacked, but labor was so scarce that
he could not get enough men to do
the work.
He had secured the countryside,
but was still three men short. At
last, in sheer desperation, he asked
Bill Bones, generally considered the
village idiot, if he would not like
fortnight's work.
what wages will you pay?" he
asked suspiciously.
"Pn pay you whatever you're
WORTH said Fitch, in burst of
generosity.
Bill considered the mtater for a
few moments. At last:
i mo, now said he. 'I'l be hanged
if I'll work for less than the other
men get!'

everyday speech are used as one"
She proceeded to give many exam
pies, quoting, among others, the
word ''bird-cage." Then, having
made the point quite clear, as she
thought, she turned to Johnny
Brown-usually the bright boy of the
5class-and said: Nov, Johnny, can
you tell us why we put hyphen in
'bird-cage?'" ~-
5 Johnny really had not the faintest
idea. AS a matter of fact, instead of
taking an interest in the lesson, he
had been busily employed making a
slate picture of the teacher and
Smunching chocolates the while. Then
suddenly inspiration came to him.
''Why, of course" he exclaimed,
'for the bird to sit on!'

of the New Hampshire Supreme Court,
in this city, the Webster Birthplace
Association was organized The or
ganization obtained an appropriation
of $500 from the legislature and this,
with other, voluntary contributions,
enabled the association to purchase
the site of Webster's birthplace and to
restore the house nearly to its original
appearance. The house was moved
back and placed upon its original foun-
dation which was fortunately found.
The old fireplace in the kitchen or liv-
ing room, with it's big iron crane, was
rebuilt and the house itself restored
to its original state inside and outside

well in the yard was restored, together
with its old-fashioned sweep and oak

Draper, N C.-Mrs. Helen Dalton, of this place, says: "I suffered for years. with pains in my left side, and would often almost smother to death.
 Medicines patched me up for awhile but then would get worse again. Final- ly, my husband decided he wanted me to try Cardui, the woman's tonic, so he bought me a bottle and began using it. It did me more good than all the medi- cines had taken. ....~,..s.. A.

Ihornberry A. Gray Is a can-
 didate for prosecuting attorney
 and believes in clean politics.
 Therefore he wishes to let the people know what he stands for.
 Hence. he positively agrees, if cleo, i, he will not persecute
 anyone. but will prosecute and
 will rot he blind to those who
 need mercy He further agrees
 when there has been crime
 committed in any part of the county. that he or his deputy
 will go to the township where
 the crime was committed and
 let the nearest justice of the peace try the case, instead of
 having them summoned or drag ged through the cold, sleet and the rain to the county seat to give some favored individual a fat job. And he further con-
 tracts OF agrees that if anyone
 having committed a crime. and wants to sabmi+ before a justice
 of the peace, that lie will not
 claim any fee, which is the law,
 He further agrees that he will
 not file information, in order to
 satisfy the private spite of any
 individual, who has not sufficient
 faith in his cause to give the
 bond required by law, and thus prosecute at the cost of the tax ipayers, and force the justice of
 the peace and constable to work
 for nothing, as often is the case.
 And he also covenants that he will be a prosecuting attorney for the Democrats, Republicans, Peoples Party, Socialists, the
