George Shroadesto Charley Creswefl, the .efficient book­ keeper for the D. B* Ervin Co.: ■“If it takes' four hoopii for a lime 'barrel bowmany hoops will it take for a rain-, water barrel?” , Peanut, as he is fa­ miliarly known, among the boys, re­ plied aftmteome little hesitation, “six.” The answer was so qmusing that the crowd did not deem it necessary to de­ mand an explanation,1 ■.. - « The man whp takes “ too many pa­ pers now,” says, “I-.like your .paper flrstrate but I take so awful many pa­ pers that I can’t read them, nohow,” We braced ourselves against the side of the bouee. -for from experience we knew what was coming. He contin­ ued: “Now I don’t want you to think that I have got any thing Again your, paper, for I hain’t.” IJp to- that we feared he was going to do something to iis. We do not like to have .things done to us by people who think they have been offended. Our health is not any too robust this S p rin g aby way. Then the man'.who thinks some day he will run for office,, said: “I take nine papers.” But we couldn’t see how that helped us out any. So he said be might take our paper again some day and we were restored. Up to that time we had expected to sus­ pend business. I t is always very con- siderato.of .wisa and great people of that sort to tell you. that you are running snch a good- paper, but that they are taking so many papers that they can’t afford to take them all* We have yet been- unable to discover how that buys print paper and ink and keeps cleau office towels for iis. Now, someday that man’s daughter will get married and tbis paper will not say that she was accomplished and hand some and well educated and kind- hearted, but this paper will say »hat she was so ugly that she had to get up flights to rest her face. And that she couldn’t write her name without sticking her tongue out. ' This paper will say that she had a heart no big­ ger than a chicken’s and that her feet are so big she has to get her shoes made to order* When his son gets through school, this paper will say be is ohe of the brightest boys that ever came down the pike. He is so bright that the sun reflects from him as he walks along the streets, and when the oldman runs for office this “ vile sheet” Will rake up the incident where he turned his cows into the cemetery and let them eat the grass on his mother’s grave.' And when he dies this paper will discover What has been the mat* ter with the neighbors’ chickens, that so many have come up missing, And the community’s ldss will be the hen house’s gain. “ 1 “ My son,” said the fond but wise parent, “you are leaving me to go out into the world.

The entertainment wap given under the auspicies'of the Ladies Aid Society of the U. P. church, and a neat sum was -realized as'the house was filled to overflowing.
