Well, What's the Joke?

On a Santa Fe train the other day.
as the conductor approached a wom-
an and her son for their tickets, he
was handed one full fare and one
half-fare ticket. Looking at the. boy
a minute, the conductor said: THAT
boy should be charged full fare; he
has on long pants" The woman
studied real hard for minute and
then said: Just change the tickets
and charge the boy full fare and me
half" An old colored woman sitting
just behind them, listening intently,
said: For the Lords sake, Mr. Con-
ductor, l gets to ride free. Pink

STATE FAIR WAS NOT
A PARTICULAR SUCCESS

The Idaho State Fair, which was
held in Boise last week, is reported
by Mountain Home visitors to have
been rather in the nature of a fail
ure. The exhibits were not very ex-
tensive and were not in the same
class as those which have been put
on view in years past.
The racing card is also reported to
have been poor, many of the owners
of racing animals taking same from
the fair grounds on Wednesday.
1t is possible that the fair was not
advertised extensively enough among
the rural citizens of the state.

 I tried seven different kinds ofpills. For about two years, I suffered every two weeks. One day, while in Bur lington, Vermont, I picked up an empty "Fruit-a-tives'' box. I saw that it was for liver complaint and came to the conclusion that it was my Liver which was causing my Headaches.
 I procured box of ''Fruit-a-tives'' and waited results, dreading the next two weeks, but the Headaches did not materialize until the third week; and I have never had g headache since and that was four years ago. I keep a box of "Fruit-a- tives" constantly on hand"
