In my moments of dreaming ]
have sometimes pictured a place
where a man could do as he pleased.
But 1t is only a dream. A man may
think he is his own boss and can do
just as he wants to, but II he tries
it he is soon at the end of the rope.
All men, and women too, do more
or less sneaking. The common, un-
written rules of every community
make it necessary. I'll admit that
l sneak some myself, and know
that other fellows in town do, too,
for / catch them at 1t every week.
There are things in every mans life
that 1t is not necessary for the whole
population to know. II anybody In
town knew 1t all about everybody
else, things would be in an awful
tumble. There wouldn't be enough
lawyers in town to take care OF
divorce cases alone. A whole lot Of
people are better off because they
don't know part Of the things going
on. Ignorance is very often our hap
piest state. So don't try to know
too much. But what you do know,

OF the pitchers, Anderson, Eayrs

who could be secured is candy" al
though Eayrs might come 1t is likely
that most of the other men on the
team, including Ostergren, Durgiu,
Crook, Koran, Twombley, Proctor and
Donovan could be signed, if desired.

for the Job. Some of the fans are

THE REFoRMER DELAYED.
Papers Were Not Delivered Promptly
Owing to Break i'll Machinery.

The two telephones in The Reformer
office buzzed more than an hour early
last evening, as people were calling
from all over town to know why the
papers had not been delivered.
The Reformer goes to press about ;
o clock. Yesterday afternoon break
in the machinery occurred, and after
considerable delay the forms were
transferred to other presses, the pa
pers were printed then folded by hand
and shortly before clock the car
riers began making their deliveries.
Many subscribers who enjoy reading
the latest general and local news at the
supper hour missed the medium which
furnishes it and naturally stepped to
the telephone to ask for an cxplana-
ton.
The break in the machinery was re-
paired this morning and it is expected
that The Reformer will be delivered
regularly hereafter in homes throughout
the town before Is O'Clock each after
noon.

A GOOD FLORIDA SNAKE STORY

On a recent Sunday A. NJ. Harri-
son suggested to Father Booth that
az he had plethora of white rats
and the rattlesnakes needed feeding,
i, would be good idea to give the
big rattlers rat each. Rattlers are
fond of the common gray rat and
they often feed this variety. 1t was
thought the rattlers would regard
the white ones as dainty meal.
Mr.. Harrison caught couple of
white ones and dropped into the rat
tier Enclosure and watched proceed
ings a few minutes. The snakes
stayed in coil but made no effort to
strike the prey preparatory to feed.
The rats scampered about as if in
vestigating their new home and un-
conscious Of SO deadly companions.
Mr.. Harrison finally grew tired of a
scene SO tame and went away. Next
morning a darkey in the Bingham
and Maley employ came to Mr.. Har-
rison saying: You'd better go out to
de snake cage; dem white rats done
about killed and ct up one de
snakes Mr.. Harrison was surprised
on going out to find the snakes
crawling about in fear and agony,
the rats having eaten one of them
to the bone in several places. The
rats were removed but the snake will
probably die, having been SO badly
