We have this story direct from Cheyenne where Buffalo Vernon was sojourning for a time this summer. A stranger entered a hotel and, after registering took a look artind. "Ah," suld he to th clerk, "You have a founts fn concealed someplace here. I can hear it splashing." 'You're all to the wrong"." repeated the clerk, "that's Huff Vernon drink Ins his after dinner coffee.' Oh Sharper Than a Sonant's Tooth. The society editor of the Fast Ore Ionian the other day referred to a prominent Pendleton tndy as "one of the clever and original matrons of tho city," On the surface, that phrase seems complimentary but a careful nnMysfs will show that it contains hidden nolson. How could a ladv be one of the original matrons of Pen dleton without being one of the oldest inhabitants? .And the lady in nues tlon prides herself on her youthful a ppearance. Before Tier Day. A woman from the backwoods came to Pendleton last week to make her yearly purchases. Among other things she needed a half doren pairs of shoes for her children. The war prices of shoe leather made her do some tall figuring and she kept constantly ask ing for something cheaper. "Would you care for some sandals the clerk finally asked her. "T dunno what they are," she re plied. The clerk showed her a pair and explained that they could be worn without stockings "You will remcm her" he said, "that sandals were worn In Biblical times without stockings."

We put the guest Ion up to the county Judge and he was equally positive. "You bet he can." quoth the Judge, "if he can find someone to perform the ceremony." Rev. R. K. Clevenger said, "Why not?" and the other ministers declared j they had no conscientious scruples about performing such a ceremony. "I'd try it once," said Tom O'Brien. District Attorney Keator says there Is nothing In the law to prevent It, there you are. Think it over. The I information may come in handy if you are ever reincarnated. Last week we had occasion to quote a "23 Years Ago" Hem to the effect that the Weston Lader has suspend ed for lack of support and to express the wish that history would repeat Itself.

THE DRIFTER the man who shops around and buys "conversation" in stead of clothes QUALITY and SER VICE is the fellow who grumbles. If the clothes have no real merit and the buyer has not informed himself as to the reliability of the maker or the retailer he only guesses.
