Two Chances.
As you all know, there are two
sides to everything, but by experience
we know you can never buy gold dol
lars for 75 cents and it is the same way
with shoes. When any one tells you
they will give you shoes at half cost
there is something wrong. First it
is like this. Every up-to-date busi
ness man marks down his stock in
proportion to the market values, and
as you all know there is nothing age
affects more than shoes, so suppose
you buy a pair of shoes that are ten
years old. These shoes sold for $2.50
and may have cost| $2.00. Now you
figure ten per cent oft' for every year,
and how much are the shoes worth,
and do you think they are cheap at
cost
Now you have two chances here at
Kimballton to buy old shoes at cost
or we will sell you a pair of new
shoes of Hayward Bros. Famous at
ten per cent on cost for the next thirty
days. Now you choose. We have
not one pair of shoes over six months
old in our store.
Thanking you for past favors we
remain yours for business,

incident* oT Forelgm Travel.
Mr. C. E. Johnstone in Travel says
that experienced wanderers in out of
the way places are thankful for what
they can set. and lie Instances a trav
eler v.-ho was proposing to pass the
night at Njegus, a tiny village In Mon
tenegro.
"Have you succeeded In finding a
room?" asked 51:. Johnstone.
"Y-yes."
"Is it a good room?"
"X-not bad. There are three other
people going to sleep in it."
"Oh. well, that's all right. Is the
bed clean?"
"N-no. I don't know that the bed is
clean. But then one can get clean beds
at home!"
In one continental hotel a Gorman
lady summoned the waiter in the din
ing room and said:
"Close that window or I shall die."
"Garcon." exclaimed an English lady,
"leave it open or I shall expire!"
At this point a Frenchman interposed
politely: "Leave it open till the Ger
man lady luis died, and then close it
till the English lady has expired. Then
we shall be able to do as we like!''
Stale Medicines.
"The length of time a prescription
retains its efficacy depends upon the in
gredients." said a druggist. "Some
combinations of drugs keep on good
terms with each other indefinitely,
while others get into a row after being
mixed together for awhile, and the
man who swallows dose of the coin
pound is apt to feel a good deal worse
than before he took it. As a rule, medi
cines that are quite sweet keep their
curative virtues longer than those that
are acid or bitter. Most any medicine
can be taken in safety six months after
compounding, and many will be all
right six years hence. Those that are
not good generally take on a curdled,
milky appearance, but that is by no
means an infallible rule, and the per
son who wishes to save his system un
comfortable complications would do
well to let all old medicines strictly
alone."—New York Tress.
The Inventor* of Stoves.
One of the first attempts at making
a closed stove of iron was made by
Cardinal Polignac in 1703, and seven
years later an attempt was made to
Introduce stoves of this kind Into Eng
land. but without success, owing to the
prejudice of English people In favor of
in
The Franklin stove was invented by
Dr. Franklin In 1?45, and a quarter of
a century later, in 1771, and during a
few years following the discoverer of
electricity invented several other
stoves, one of which was designed for
burning bituminous coal and which
had a downward draft and consumed
Its own smoke.

"Here is a story told me the other
night," says a writer in the London
Tatler. "Lord Tennyson, as all the
world knows, wrote a sonnet for the
first number of the Nineteenth Cen
tury. As it stands in the poet's 'Col
lected Works' it reads quite differently
from its form as first presented, where
it ran:
"Thus far our bark hath sped without one
check.
"Mr. Knowles, the editor, wrote back
to suggest that this line should be al
tered, as a check for the amount of the
poem would certainly be forthcoming
and that the public might misunder
stand."
Kinpr Who Never Smiled Agnln.
One of tin questions asked at a re
cent teachers' examination," says a
college professor, "was, 'Can you name
the monarch referred to in English
history as the king who never smiled
again?'
The reply of one of the fair candi
dates for a license to teach was, 'King
William Rufus after he was shot In the
forest.'
"History records that the shot was
fatal."
Ail Ant 'Kent Compass.
In the tropical northern territory of
South Australia travelers need not car
ry a compass. Nature has provided a
living compass for them. The district
abounds with the nests of the magnetic
or meridian ant. The longer axis of
these nests or mojinds is always In a
perfect line with the parallel of lati
tude pointing due north and south.
Scientists cannot explain this peculiar
orientation.

"But we haven't a cockroach In the
house," interrupted the woman at the
door.
"Well, you will have in a few days,

the neighbors."—Exchange.
