Prices for Puffs.

The editor of an Eastern paper
has grown peeyish. He has
been pestered so much by people
desiring free puffs that he face
tiously refers to himself as the
Peerless Prince of Puff Pur-
veyors." He thinksgthat he has
done enough for social queens,
ministers who are looking for free
advertising, people who have legis-
latiye fads they wish to push and
organizations which want free
publicity. So he has evolved the
following scale Of prices:
For telling the public that a
man is a successful citizen, when
everybody knows he is as lazy as
a hired man, $2.70.
Referring to deceased citizen
as one who is mourned by the en-
tire community, when he will only
be missed by the poker circle,
$10.13,
Referring to one as hero and a
man Of courage and one who will
stand by his honest convictions,
when everybody knows that be is a
moral coward and would sell out
for thirty cents, So 81,
Referring to some gallivanting
female as an estimabIe lady whom
it is pleasure to meet and know,
when every man in town would
nooner see Satan coming, $50.
Calling an ordinary pulpit orator
an eminent divine, go cents.
Sending a doughty sinner to
heaven, $500.
Referring to a deceased merchant
who never advertised in his life as
a progressive citizen, $4.99.

evening about $50 caused an
alarm to be turned in and brought
out the two fire companies with
alltheir fire fighting paraphernalia.
The boys made excellent time in
getting to the fire, but were
handicapped by the interference
OF outsiders who don't seem to
have yet learned that Dresden
has two paid fire companies and
whose duty it is to take charge Of
a fire, the hose, carts, and so on.
Fire Chief Lewis was out OF
town, Tut he was well represent
ed by some two dozen gentlemen
who gave instructions to the fire
boys, each one giving different
directions, which helped the tired,
WORKOUT boys out wonderfully
after they had dragged the two
heavy hose carts to the scene Of
the supposed fire.
Thanks, gentlemen; call againI

Lewis that he get both companies
together at once and establish
regular and stated drill occasions,
