Everybody wants to stay home and vote and help gel his man elected. After the election is ovor, and we have all once more saved the country, real estate will be livelier. Kansas has more newspapers with odd names than any other stale. Here are a few of them: The Wano Hus tler, ChcatrrcUtc Paralyser, Thomas f', Cherol; Cyclone, Cimunon Sh1 llmsc. Lake City Prairie Dog, SntJi Center Dazoo, Valley Falls Lucifer. Garden City Irrigator, Forgo Springs Prairie Owl, Garden City Dandle of SUe7;n. Dodge City C'r Dog. Greenfield Cap Sheaf. In Towa is a town called "Woodbine, and when a paper was started there the Iitor naturally called it The Wood t'int TtrintUi. At Oakland in the same state the only journal in the place is called On hland Acorn. One ia Spenrville is called the Speaicille Dlade. Among the papers with alliterative names in Kansas are: Lebo Light, licnora Leader, L cado Lcd frtr. Kiuaid Knw-l;!'. and Simpson Silings. Word comes that the Siol;anc Falls Ikwu has "burst." Very unlikely. 2one but a ateady, progressive town could snpjtort such a great paper as the Merit ir. which is a marvel and im proves as the months go by. No town with a live paper can fail to win, ir the palter is properly supported. The nows-paper i the index of the town.

Piles driven here twenty-five years ago are Mill sound and firm. ,Tav Gori,i has .smoked but one cigar in his life and he is worth SCO, OWjOCKt" He is probably the only man in the country who has saved so so much money by limiting himself to one cigar. Many persons have saved several hundred dollars in the course or forty years by not smoking, but they haven't got the money or any thing to show for it. Sitting in the opera house last night listening to Democratic cheers called to mind equally vociferous cheering on the part of our Demo cratic brethren two years ago when Jno. P. Irish was here. On that ovcningTony Xoltner. the Nestor of the state Democratic press, came over to the reporter's desk on the stage, and asked "Do you hear those cheers? That means victory later on.' The following December he happened to be in the theater one evening, silling next to the writer. Between acts he leaned over and said: 4Do you re member that night last June? How in is it that we always get the crowd and the cheers and the enthu siasm, and when the votes are counted yoa fellows are ahead?"' That is a question that has puzzled ihe greatest minds in all ages and will be the theme of thought for many years to come. The solid men of Shauklin, Isle of Wight, England, have been reading about Astoria and Seattle andTacoma and Spokane Falls. Recently there was a meeting of the inhabitants of Skanklin 4to consider the best way to ksc, for the benefit of the town, a let ter from Mr. Henry Irving, a lecent visitor to Shanklin; and also how best to make known the town as a desirable resort and place of residence." Mr. Irving, by request, had written "a few lines of recommendation for the press." It was suggested that this ought to be advertised. A doctor thought that ad vertising was "very good," but that tke best plan would be to start a chil dren's hospital. The best way to in crease the growth of Shanklin was ''to gret in with the great physicaus.' This idea was regarded with considerable favor. Another citizen said "they oaght to go at it in the same way they went at it at Yen tor, which was to get under way with the doctors." aad lie thought it would be best to appoint a committee. Finally it was XB&aixnonsly resolved "that the geu Ueaaen present form themselves inlo a committee having for its object the establishment at Shanklin of a chil- Because its owners are tiSCBSZSSECSSSIIIIl Our Goods are Bought for Cash in the Cheapest Markets. allowed is profit enough for us.
