A young man. after his banns had been twice announced, called upon the busy vicar early one morning. He wanted to have a private word with him about the banns. "Well," said the vicar, "whut la wrong?" "Oh, it's the girl's name." "Hasn't it been given correctly?" "Oil, yes, it's correct enough, but I want you to put another girl's name for the third calling. I've changed my mind and would rather marry Mary 'Arris Instead of Sarah Jenkins." The vicar lectured the youth upon his fickleness and told him If ho want ed any alteration it would be necessary to make a fresh start and have the banns published afresh. "What, and pay another shilling?" gasped the lover. "Certainly," replied the vicar. "Well, In that case you had better let it be as it is, and I'll marry my first love."—Pearson's Weekly. Enlivened His Sermon. A minister of Crosmiciiael, In Fife, frequently talked from the pulpit to his hearers with amusing aud Indeed irreverent familiarity. Expounding r passage from Exodus one day, he pro ceeded thus: " 'And the Lord said unto Moses'—sneck that door! I'm thinking if ye had to sit beside the door yersel' ye wadna be sac ready leaving it open It was just beside that door that Ye dam Tamson, the bellman, got his death o' cauld, and I'm sure, honest man, he didna let It stay muckle open. 'And the Lord said unto Moses'—1 see a man naeath the laft wi' his hat on I'm sure, man. ye're clear o' the soogh o' that door there. Keep nff your ban net, Thamas, and If your bare pow be cauld ye maun just get a gray worsted wig, like mysel'. They're no sae dear —plenty o' them at Bob Gillespie's for 10 pence apiece." The rpverend gen tleman then proceeded with his dis course. A Sample of His Nerve. Buck Taylor, the showman, was a great friend of Captain William O'Neill, the rough rider who was killed at Las Guasimas, Cuba, in the Spanlsh Amerlcan war. O'Neill was shorter of Tucson, Arlz., when Taylor became ac quainted with him, and on more than one occasion the cowboy rendered the easterner a service. "Did O'Neill deserve the reputation he held for nerve?" Taylor was once asked. "Well," he said and then hesitated, as if careful to choose the right words, "I don't think there was anything that Bucky O'Neill was afraid of. Once he went into a den where ten of the pals of a murderer and trnln robber he was after were gathered, laid his hand on the man's shoulder and walked him out. He had not a friend or ally within sight or hearing. Was that nerve?" She Had Tested the Oyster, Dora, the pet of the household, was very fond of oysters, aud after eating her lunch of oysters and crackers she thought of her dear mother busy at her sewing machine. She selected a nice large oyster, put it in a plat** and car ried It to her mother, who. pleased with her little daughter's thoughtful ness, ate the oyster and said: "It is most as good as my little girlie." "Yes," answered Dora, "I know It is good 'cause I licked it all the way from the kitchen."—Delineator. A Way to Woalth. Upon one occasion the late Earl Pou lett, who, by the way. was a great spendthrift, was paying his physician and on handing the medical gentleman 400 guineas In gold asked him If he knew how to grow rich. The doctor replied in the negative, and the earl advised him never to pay an account by check, but always in coin, "for." be added, "the more you look at your money the less Inclined you will be to part with it." His Mean Comment. Wife (reading)—Here's the adver tisement of a matrimonial agency of fering to supply any man with a wife for a guinea. Husband—Oh, of course; It costs less to get into trouble than It doe# to get out again.—London Scraps. Cheered Him Up. The prisoner was downcast. "Cheer up," said his lawyer. Tv» got a Jury of twelve men too stupid to find out that you're guilty." Naturally the client took a more hopeful view.—Philadelphia Ledger. There Is not a single moment In Ufa that we can afford to lose.—Gonlbnrn Notice of Stockholders' Meeting of the Canyon Creek Reservoir Company. Notice is hereby given, that a meet ing of the stockholders of the Canyon Creek Reservoir Company will be held at the Canyon Creek school house on Saturday, the 5'h day of June, 19U9, at the hour <_i 8:30 o'clock p. in., for the purpose of considt ring the question of selling of the whole of the assets of every kind and description of such corporation, This notice is given in pur suance of a resolution adopted by the board of directors of such corporation on the fifth day of Mav, 1909. W. J. GRIGGS 29-4t Secretary. and disposing property and Winning ■ Violin. The way M. Ysaye, the great violin ist. became the owner of a Guarnerius violin dated 17-1" was thus quaintly told by himself: "The Guarnerius was bought in Par is by a pupil of mine, a charming young woman. I envied her the vio lin, and fate gave It to me. 1 teach this pupil, and by and by I meet her sister, a most lovely young woman, with whom I fall In love straightway and marry. Soon I go to my slster-in law, who was my pupil, and say to her: " 'It is time you stop fooling with violin. You will never learn how to play It' 1 take the liberty of a big brother, but she do not like It for long time. At lust she succumb to my ex perience and wisdom, and she stops playing. Then I say grandiloquently: " 'I will take the Guarnerius, 1742.' I take it and that is how the violin eame Into the possession of Ysaye." They Meant Business. A Chicago stage manager was tell ing of amusing Incidents of blunders and errors caused by stage fright. In a romantic play recently revived one of the minor characters, u dairymaid, comes forward at the end of the rt* citai of a love romance und comments aa follows: "Hope filled their youth and whetted their love; they plighted their troth!" Rut at one of the performances the girl who played the dairymaid was absent without notice. At the last mo ment the manager gave the lines to a shepherdess, who had never had lines to speak before and who was excess ively nervous when her cue came. This Is what the astonished audience heard: "Hope tilled their trough and blight ed their love; they whetted their tooth!" Ths Hourglass. Instead of being obsolete and simply an interesting relic, the hourglass in various forms is a twentieth century necessity. A machinist authority points out that for such purposes as timing hardening and tempering heats In twist drill manufacture, where sec onds or minutes must be gauged accu rately, nothing serves like the hour glass with the right amount of sand. Accuracy to fractious of a second can be had much more easily than by watching the hands of a watch. Bad Attack of Dy*e.itery Cured. "An honored citizen of this town was suffering from a severe attack of dvsentery. He told a friend if he could obtain a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy he felt confident of being cured, he having used this remedy in the West. He was told that I kept it in stock and lost no time in obtaining it, aed was promptly cured, says M. J. Leach, druggist, of Wolcott, Vt. For sale by Corner Drug store. Adv. Loading the Wagon. It is generally believed that the load pulls easier if put well forward on the wagon But this Is not so on the or dinary wagon, where the hind wheels are larger than the front ones. Should the wheels be equal in size the load should he equally distributed, if the trucks are so low down that the horses have an upward pull on Hu loud. then it would be all right to put the load well forward. The load should be proportioned to the surface contact of the wheels. A large Wheel sinks less than n small one. There fore the load should he heaviest on the hind wheels. Distribute the weight so that uo one wheel or no one side is carrying the greater share, lest it make the draft excessive for the ton nage carried. Wash Eggs For Market. It would In n sense he better to wash eggs sent to market than to send them In n dirty condition. But washed eggs huve no keeping quail ties. The water appears to dissolve the gelatinous substance which seals the pores of the shell, and air is thus admitted aud soon starts decomposi tion. The better way to treat dirty eggs la to take a woolen rag only slightly moistened with water and gently rub off the dirt. Nut Industry en the Farm. An Industry which the farmer might take up with profit is nut growing. Improved nut trees begin bearing at about six or eight years, bearing the same as apple or pear trees. Large trees when grafted begin to bear about the third or fourth year, and large trees that are budded will bear sooner than small ones, but the small ones bear longest. English walnuts can now be grown in the central states Quit* Handy. "The automobile is a great institu tlon." "For Instance?"
