Some Prizo Jjlea. "
At the Pathacket Fair lait fall
tbe committee offered" a prize of
one hundred dollars for the most
appalling lie ' It may . have been
very hurtful to the feelings of the
good citizens of our worthy town
iior the committee to imagine that
there was a citizen in Pathacket
who could tell a lie. But some of
the efforts submitted are due a
place in history.
Euky Mears, who bad some rep
utation as a liar before the war,
said he was out fishing one night,
and caught a boat load of eels,
some 'twelve thousand ; ' that in
reaching around to his hip-pocket
for his old crow" he accidentally
capsized the boat ; that every fish
had an opportunity to escape, but
realizing that Euky was a man of
great magnetic powers, when the
boat was up righted they were all
in place, fawning against Euky's
shin-bones and wriggling around
generally. This was a good lie.
It is said that it paralyzed one
meraberof the awarding commit
tee, and there was consequently
some prejudice against the story.
Had it not been for this it would
have taken a prize.
Next came a lie in the way of an
appetizer. It appears that Bcb
Shares saw -a man at a barbecue
down in Darby eat twenty-eight
pairs of wild ducks and a whole
cake of cheese, with the rag on.
That was fishy.
Then there was the legend of a
man, a fat man, who was so large
that his trousers held thirty bushels
of corn. - .
ut the contribution which took
ther first prize was, a ; war story.
Tobe Punkin, a friend of mine,
told it. There was a man from
Fluvanna county, and the strangest
part' of the story is that he was
not a Populist, who haefan extra
ordinary growth 'of beard. His
beard bothered him considerably.
It would grow alarmingly fast.
Before he was sixteen years of age
be bad to shave every day, and
when he became a man it was nec
essary to shave twice a day, and
even then it would get away from
him. At last the war broke out
and he went into the army. Now
comes the climax. About 1863 he
was shaving all the time. Before
each meal it was necessary to re
move his hirsute adornment. A
growth of six or eight inches would
accumulate within a few hours.
One morning they went into a bat
tie, and tbe fighting was fierce for
several hours. After two days of
continuous firing the beard of this
Barbarossa was six feet in length
and still growing. He cut it off,
but it grew worse, or better, as the
case may be. Matters went on in
this way until it finally became
fiecessary to give the bearded man
an attendant, whose duty it was
every ten minutes to clear away
the web work. And here the story
broke off. It captured the jrize
a bob-tailed lie; but there are
maoy opinions as to. where this
ffood man went. I think he is in
Kansas. ' '
Accidents Will Happen.
"Why, Johnnie, you've got a big
lump on your head. Have you
been fighting again." .
"Fighting? Me? I gueps not."
"But somebody strudk you?"
iNbody struck me, I wuzn't
fightin' at all. It was a accident."
"An accident?"
"Yep. I had just trun Tommie
Scanlon down, and was sittin on
him, and I forgot to hold his feet."

A Happy Toi7n. T
The town of Beattie, in the state
of Kansas, should be, and probably
is, the most beatitudinous ofj all
towns. In it the sweet influence is
supreme and petticoat government
is firmly . established. The same
thing may be said in a general way
of other towns. But in other
towns woman rules through mas
culine agents, and by them the
government Is corrupted. In Beat
tie, however, lovely woman has
grasped the reins of government in
her own small but firm hand and
men are shoved aside without cere
mony, as they should be when they
get in the way. The mayor i of
Beattie ia a woman,and four of the
five counoilmen are of the same
persuasion. The minority is com
posed of one poor man. Unless
that man has been hardened by the
Harveyizing process he is doubtless
made to feel his inferiority at every
meeting of the board. Weoan im
agine the scorn with which jhis
propositions are reoeived by the
majority, unless, indeed, he is a
single man and some of the ma
jority are spinsters. The meetings
of the mayor and oouneil are con
verted into afternoon teas, where
conversation is unconfined and
where even Mr. Two Tongues,' of
Talkative alley, would find himself
outdone. And while all this! is
going on the town is governed like
Utopia, The streets are swept and
dusted every morning. Bum is not
permitted to ruin any happy home.
Cloves and salted peanuts and Cof
fee grains are not tolerated, tea i
the official beverage, and husbands
are subjected to a proper and
wholesome restraint. Other towns
in 'Kansas have had petticoat gov
ernment and the most serious scan
dal and charge of corruption ever
made was some years ago, onej re
lating to an unauthorized use; of
public property for private pur
pose. It seems that one of the
council ladies was accused of heat
ing her , curling tongs with gas
which belonged to the city. The
charge was not satisfactorily proved
but it caused great excitement,
and another council lady, who had
fluffy hair which didnot require
heated tongs, was especially con
spicuous in the prosecution. It is
to be hoped that not even a charge
or suspicion of such a malfeasance
as this will ever trouble the town
of Beattie, but that the ship of
state, so to speak, may sail olacid
ly and prosperously over a summer
sea of love, joy, peace, long-suffering,
gentleness, meekness, temper
ance and virtue.
These are dangerous times for the
health. Croup, colds and throat
troubles lead rapidlv to Consumption.
A;bottle of One Minute Cough Cure
used at the right time will preserve life,
health and a large amount of money,
Pleasant to take; children like it.

CHOOSE TOUR DRUGGIST CAREFULLY.
A drugfnst can do more hsrm or good than
most people give him credit for. There are dif
ferent qualities in drugs just as there are in dry
goods, and to the outsider all qualities go by the
same name. Tbe difference between pure, high
grade drugs and cheap, inferior drugs of the
same name, means the difference between keep
ing sick and getting well. When a-doctor writes
a prescription, he means best quality. When
some druggists fill a prescription, they think
onlv about big profits.
Choose your druggist carefully. -
