CHAFF FROM THE STRAW STACK By The Wind Stacker - . 4 It is better to live in the foggy presr ent than the misty past. A summer girl's idea of economy is to make one hammock do for two. There is no place like home.' That is probably why so many men spend their evenings up town. The hateful woman, if she can say nothing else mean against , ySu, . will add ten years more to your age. If there is anything more disgusting on the face of the earth than a hype-1 crit, we would like to know what it is. .

' ' RESIDENCE Eastern professor says the people of this country are working themselves to death. Has he ever looked around when a circus parade took place. Girls seldom marry the young man who give, them presents and feed them on ice cream, for the good reason that when the girls are ready to marry, the young men are broke. A bachelor upon reading that two lovers will sit up all evening with only one chair in the room, said it could not be done unless one of them sat on the floor. Such ignorance is painful. An Eastern exchange says; A wom an boarded one of the smoking cars, paid her fare and then deliberately lighted a cigar and began smoking. A passenger objctecj and the conductor insisted that she mast either stop smoking or leave the car. The next day superintendent of the road reprov ed the conducted and issued a general order, that woman iave exactly the same rights as men in this matter, no more ncr less, and that it was their privelege to smoke in the smoking cars without being molested, which ' seems to be good sound judgment. , . ... lli'iiivxly for Diarrhoea, Never Known to Fail "I want to say a few words for Cham berlain'6 Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea i Remedy. I have used this preparation in my family for the past five years and ' have 'recommended it to a number of people in York county and have never known it to fail to effect a cure in any instance.
