said. If the commissioner has the
necessary amount of lime in the spinal

depot*; As he crossed the track's to
get Into the depot Charley Morality
was running his engine up to couple

letter -heads and envelopes, especially when they can be had cheaper
than the white paper can be purchased

never be without them again. The
Senttkel office is prepared to furnish
them on short notice and at low prices.

It is not often that a newspaper

However, Wednesday evening witnessed an exception when a party of about
forty dropped in on Bro. M. D. Eaton
of the Demo.-Press and informed him
that the breezes of 29 winters had
toyed with his waving locks and that
the auroral lights of as many summer
suns were entangled therein, or words
to that effect. Mr. and Mrs. Eaton
had been inveigled into going to the
home of Mr. and Mrs,, M^son for the
evening, Imd there the crowd found
them, -lo say they were a surprised
couple but half expresses it. Marye's
first thought was .of the fire-escape,
judging tiy the startled look that came
into his eyes, but as he recognized the
faces of friends and not those of angry
subscribers whose names had been inadvertently omitted from the "Personal Column j" he speedily recovered himself and assumed the rolei of mine
host with becoming ease. A. pleasant
evening was enioyed, of which some
choice and toothsome viands was no
slight feature. As a token qf esteem
and as a slight hint of advancing years
Mr. Eaton was presented with an elegant office chair, the gift of ailLpresent.
At a seasonable hour the company dispersed, conscious of a feeling of satisfaction ih haiving done a kindly act in
shedding a little sunlight on one editor's pathway. [ *
