MR. AOUOAO.
"1 have l?een admired for ever and
?ver so lour." said Mr. Aoudad. "and
fou know. Mrs. Aoudud, 1 love to he
idiulred."
"1 know that," said Mrs. Aoudad,
'for 1 have been the one to ailmire you.
"Ami 1 was ndiuiriug you only tlRs
morning,"
"Well, that seems like a long time
tgo to me," said Mr. Aoudad. "YeS,
this warning seems like a long time
iway. And, to be sure, this morning
a as a long time oft. Why, ever and
nor so many moments have gone by
md even some hours."
"Of course." said Mrs. Aoudad,
'most creatures do not think moments
mean a long, long time, and even a
Tew hours do not seem so long a time
ither to m >st creatures."
"I aiu not 'most creatures,'" said
Mr. Aoudad.
"I know that," said Mrs. Aoudad. !
"Then why tell me that most creatures
do uot think minutes or even a
few hours amount to much? 1 think
so, and I am Mr. Aoudad, und I like
to have my own way.
"1 have always told you I liked to
lave lay own way. You know, too, that
I like to have my own food In my own
way."
"Which moans," salcl Mrs. Aoudad,
"that you like to have your food tlrst.
II }AS
ifl ^
"Never Get Tired."
You like me to wait until you are
ill through before 1 begin to eat."
"I don't merely like you to wult un
til I nnt all through eating until you
begin." said Mr. Aoudnd. "I insist "
"To be sure, to be sure," said Mrs.
Aoudad.
"Well now," said Mr. Aoudad, "nd- ;
in Ire me and tell me what a handsome
fellow I nm."
"But suppose 1 don't think so," said
Mrs. Aoudad.
"That Is Impossible. Imposslltle! No
creature with brains can help but admire
me, Mrs. Aoudad. You kuovv ,
that. So admire me, please."
"Ah yes," said Mrs. Aoudad, "I know
that. And I do udmire you. I nd- '
mire your fine horns and I admire :
you long goatee. I'erhups 1 should
call it your necktie Instead of your
goatee."
"That Is what you should cnll It,"
said Mr. Aoudad. "I have a line necklie,
It Is true. I don't hnve a little
skimpy how tie but I have u fine shag
gy front which I cnll my necktie. It
Is a generous necktie."
"Can neckties be generous?" nsked
Mrs. Aoudad.
"Mine Is, 1 know that," said Mr. ;
Aoudad.
"But as a rule neckties aren't gen
erous," Mrs. Aoudad said.
"They don't give presents," she con
tlnued. "They vdon't snve up their ,
money and give lovely things to otli
crs."
"< >f course not," said Mr. Aoudad,
"for neckties aren't people. People 1
give to others. Neckties aren't birds.
Birds give to other birds. They feed 1
their little ones and they feed their
mates. Neckties are simply neckties."
"Then why do you say that your
Decktle Is generous?" asked Mrs.
toudad. 11
"Because there Is plenty of It," said
Mr. Aoudad. "Xow when one speaks
af a generous portion of food one
moans that tliere Is a good-sized por- i1
Ion of food. 11
"That Is what I moan when 1 say
[ wear a generous neektle."
"Oh, I see," said Mrs. Aoudnd.
"Of course yen see," said Mr.
toudnd. "If you didn't see I'd feel
sorry for you because you wouldn't be
ible to see what a beautiful animal
rour rnnte Is."
"Gracious," said Mrs. Aoudnd, "but j
pou are conceited."
"Now, now, Mrs. Aoudnd, you
nustn't talk like that. That isn't a
peasant way of admiring a mate."
"True, true." said Mrs. Aoudnd.
'Itut I can't think of any new tilings
o praise you about."
"That's all right," said Mr. Aoudnd. i
'The old ones suit me just as well.
L'he fact is I never get tired of havng
the same sort of admiration over
ind over again."
So Mr. Aotitani stood upon a rock
ind Mrs. Aoudnd said:
"You are one of the finest. If not I
he very finest, wild sheep I have ever
teen.
"You do not mind the weather In
the zoo though you were used to the
hot mountains of Africa when you
were free, and you stand most beaut!- [
fully, most beautifully, Mr. Aoudnd.
rhat Is what you like to hear, I know."
"It Is what I like to hear," agreed
Mr. Aoudnd.

What eventually prrm scs to be the
greatest coal operation in West Virginia.
if not in the country, is being
developed at Three Forks, a mining
community three miles from Lundale.
Logan county, on Buffalo Creek. When
all plans have been carried out, coal
will be taken simultaenously from 5v2
openings into the same coal seam,
which lies high up the mountainside.
The line along which the openings
are being made is three miles long
and virtually girdles one of the largest
mountains in Logan county.
Depression in the coal industry has
retarded development of the operation.
but the entire project is expected
to be finished in two years. The Three
Forks operation is one of the youngest
sponsored by the Lundale Goal
Company interests, of which George
M. Jones, a well-known coal operator,
is general manager and a large
stOplchnWpp A# }_ ^ '
..... #-?, ii is producing
about one-third of capacity, a daily
output of from 1.100 to 1,400 tons
from eight of the sixteen openings.
The completed project will be capable
of an output of 8,000 tons daily.
Judge For Yourself
Which Is I tetter?Try an Experiment
or Profit by a Shepherdstown
Citizen's Experience?
Something new is an experiment.
Must be proved to be as represented.
The statement of a manufacturer is
i*>t convincing proof of merit.
But the endorsement of friends is.
i\ow supposing you had had back,
A lame, weak, or aching one.
Would you experiment on it?
You will read of many so-called
cures.
Endorsed by strangers from far-away
places.
It's different when the endorsement
comes from home.
Easy to prove local testimony.
Head this Shephcrdstow n case: j
J. F. Waldcck, stone mason. High'
St., says: "I have used them severa'
times for attacks of kidney complaint
and they have always helped me. My 1
work is a severe strain on my back
and kidneys and at times I had such
backaches that it was hard for me to!
straighten up when I stooped over.
The action of my kidneys was irregular,'
too. Doan's Kidney Pills, from Hill's
Pharmacy, have always relieved the
trouble and stopped the backache."

No Harm Meant.
Senator Hiram Johnson was talking
about one of Japan's pronouncements
of disarmament.
"The wording," he said, "may have
been a little awkward, but no harm
was meant. Japan meant no more
harm than the young man at the weekend
party.
"His beautiful young hostess came
up to this young man on Saturday
evening just before dinner and said
with an apologetic but dazzling smile:
" 'I'm so sorry, but we have only got
one bathiOom, you know. What time
would you like your bath in the morn- (
ing?' <
"The young man was touched by her |
solicitude. (
" 'Oi., I assure you,' he said, 'what- (
ever time suits you will suit me.* '
"His beautiful hostess blushed and '
frowned. She didn't now whether to <
be offended or not. Perhaps tho j
young man meant no harm. So, tap- {
ping her foot on the rug, she said very (
coldly and distinctly: *
"'Tell me, please, what time you
want your bath?' j
"The young man saw the faux pas [
he had unwittingly made, and in great I
confusion stammered: j
'"Oh, your time is mine!'" |
The sea totter, once almost extinct, ^
is again inhabiting the sea kelp beds [
on the Aleutian Islands. These an- ?
irnals, driven from the Aleutians a *
generation ago, took refuge on un- J
charted reef south of the Commander [
group and increased and are now mak- ?
ing their way back to the bid grounds *
on the West Alaskan Coast, where (
there is abundant food and shelter. J
Like the fur seal, the pelt shimmers J
like ebony, showing silver when |
blown open. They measure six feet ?
in length, have a beaver-like face, .
cat's teeth and webbed feet. (
Assessors will have an easy task in 5
deciding how to value automobiles foo ?
taxation purposes. The State Tax ;
Commissioner has made their duty very j.
simple in valuing this class of property. ?
In listing automobiles the commission- j|
cr informs the assessors they should ^
list new cars at their true and actua' >,
value; cars used for one season should 5
show a twenty-five per cent reduction |
from cost price, cars used two seasons j
should show a thirty to thirty-five per j
cent reduction from first cost, and for |
three seasons and over the reduction j
should be between fifty and seventy- )
five per cent. So figure it up for your- j
self.
