SOME GALL

Some of the people of Fair banks. patrons of the large mail order houses of the "put- side" have been known to pull of some funny stunts. but the most nervy one ever record ed took place last week says the Citizen. A certain young lady walked into one of the shoe stores and asked to be shown several pairs of ladies shoes. The clerk. very ob- iiging man went through all his stock until he finally sue ceeded m finding a shoe that would fit the dainty foot that was thrust out from beneath inc skirt. She had him lace It up. looked it over carefully, walked around on the mat with it. and assured the clerk that it fitted fine. All the above iS. of course. very ordinary but here Is the fine work. She asked exactly the size, the width and the general descrip- ton of the shoe. and the ob- liging one explained to the best of his knowledge. He then started tp wrap up the parcel and asked the young lady if she would take the shoes with her or have them sent to the house, and this was her reply: "Oh. no. 1 didn't care 10 buy. I was just sending outside for q pair and l wanted 10 be sure Of the Size.a The clerk funeral will be held some time in the near future.

TRUST THE PRESIDENT

The policy of the admins tration respecting Mexico has had the approval of public opinion. Jingoism and scl- fish interest have tried to dis credit it without success. As tension grows and critical events once more loom up, there is only one rule the level headed American can afford to follow.
 Trust the President.
 The President is better in- formed as to all factors of the situation than any editor or politician. He has the fullest knowledge, the fullest powers and the fullest responsibilities. His will, his intelligence, and his patriotism can be relied upon. He is on the bridge. He is in command.
 Already his policy seems to be bearing fruit, as hig,.., Mexican official stated recen- tly that he believed the diff faculties between the United States and Mexico would soon be amicably adjusted.
