I gave tim one of the pest rooms. He staid several days. I got | uneasy about my bill and asked him for | i. He said that 1 was in a h—l1 of a hur- ryand that he would pay it whenever he got ready I very foolishly told him that
if he did not pay me right then I would take it out of his hide. He pulled off his eatand said he was ready to settle, an wewent atit. We fought for some time, and thought I had whipped him, but I | am sorry to say that I was mistaken. He
rested a short time and jumped on When we fought out this roune, I again thought I had him whipped. But, alas, I was again mistaken, for be rested for a time and came at me again. By this time 1 was very tired of the fight. He got me down on the floor, and, after thinking about it for years, I think 1 was whipped. When he let me get up, I told him he did notowe me acent and could stay at the Waveriy House free of charge as long as he wanted to.
“This man from Illinois had a lawsuit fn our court, and David Greer was his lawyer. David had the suit up in nice shape and expected a big fee, but alas for David! This man from Illinois, flushed with victory after getting through with me, concluded to settle with David as he had with me. He went to David's office and told him he had settled his bill with Sam Piles, and. now he was ready to pay him his fee in the same way. David got up out of his Chair and backed himself up in the corner and told the man from Illi- nois that he did not owe him a cent, and also told him that if it would be unpleas- ant for him to stay longer with me he *§ could go home with him, and it would /4 c%§ him nothing to stay as long as he de- sired to. But the man from Hlinois had not completed his mission at Smithlund ms yet. He owed Tom Robertson a livery
fable bill. He called on him to settle.
Tom told him he owed him nothing. He mthen called on Mr. Cade, and he told him mithe same thing. ™@ ‘The last time I heard from this man irom Illinois was that he was fighting the mivery stable man at New Liberty, IIls.,

WHAT YOU ’LOWIN FOR EGGS? The Question That Puzzles a Modern Young Saleswoman.
This was in one of the big retail houses in the shadow of Grace church. The man was unmistakably a farmer-—not the rounded, successful and assertive farmer of the present, who can take care of him- self, but the elongated, cadaverous, chin whiskered, wind wasted farmer who belps his wife in her housework and who often wears her apron. He carried a basket. The care which he bestowed upon this basket was proof that it contained eggs.
He finally reached the shoe department and asked a young woman if she had any shoe blacking. She showed the old gentle- man several brands. They were in bottles and some in pink covered boxes. The cus- tomer shook bis head.
“I want some of that blackin,” he said, ‘‘that I have had all my life and that my father had. It comes in a big, round box ’bout the size of a baby flapjack, and has a yallow label on it and a picture of a gamecock seein his reflection in the polish of a boot that a nigger has just shined up. Ain’t you never seen any such blackint"
The young woman, who had that day been transferred from the book depart- ment because she had offered a new novel to aman who asked for “ Pilgrim’s Prog- ress,’’ said she had never seen any such and that she bad never heard of it.
“It would outshine all creation,’’ sald the old gentleman, ‘‘and would turn wa- ter like a goose'’s back. A box of it used to last in our house a whole year. Which do you think is the best, this in the bottle or the box?’’
The young woman explained the quali- ties of each as she understood it.
**Then this in the bottle is for wimmin's shoes and this in the box is for men's? You say you put it on with a flannin rag same as you do salve? And it'll keep the leather from creakin and ‘ll turn water?”
He was assured on these points, and then in a hesitating manser he asked across the showcase:
‘What are you ‘lowin for eggs today?”
The young woman did not understand. How could she? She had never lived in the country. She had never sold goods in the general merchandise store at the cross- roads. But the floorwalker who was called in had lived in Woonsocket and round about. He knew that the good old gentle- man had eggs which he wanted the house to take at the highest cash price in ex- change for goods.—-New York Sun.
