OUR BEST WISHES

Merry Christmas
and a
HappyNewYear.
HIS DIMES RETURNED TO HIM
How a Kansan Proved Honesty of
Stranded Harvesters ts Told by
Eastern Journal.
“Bread scattered on the waters”
is beginning to return to a Hutchin
son man who lent a helping hand
to harvesters stranded in Hutchin
son.
Each day for nearly a week Wal
ter Jordan, a wealthy Hutchinson
man, distributed ten-cent pieces
among a large number of harvest
hands gathered here awaiting work.
He asked no questions, but gave each
man a dime.
Jordan repeated it daily during
the rush last week. The harvest
now has started, and most of these
men are working in the wheat fields.
The mail is beginning to bring Jor
dan’s dimes back to him. Quite a
number have been sent back to him
by the harvesters, who are now re
paying him from their first earnings.
In some cases the men inclosed extra
suras for “interest.”
Nicholas Bird, commissioner of
the board of charities, had a similar
experience. Several of the men
whom he had assisted are now send
ing in remittances making repay
ment. One man whom he had helped
leave town, buying a railroad ticket*
remitted the full amount, with inter
est.—New York Sun.
same old trou&ls.
‘‘Darling," aaid the melancholy
wife, "if you should die first, youll
wait for me on the other shore, won't
you ?”
"Oh, I Suppose so," rejoined the
weary husband, "I’ve always had to
wait for you every time we went any
where.”
HIS EXPERIENCE.
Giles—Marriage is a failure.
Miles—How do you know? You
have never been up against the mat
rimonial game.
Giles—That’s how I know. You
see, the girl refused me.
CONTRADICTORY EVIDENCE.
“This clock will last you a life
time.”
“How can it when I see already
that its hours are numbered.”
HIS POSITION.
“Is he manager still in the matri
monial firm?”
“Hot much. Since the baby came
he’s merely the floorwalker.”
A QUAINT CUSTOM.
“You sav the Boblings are an old
fashioned family?”
“Very. They all eat breakfast to
gether.”
| GOLD MINE IN CLAY ROAD
Boy Dug It Out With His Team of
Mules at the Expense of
Auto Riders.
Benjamin Joseph, son of State
Senator Harland M. Joseph of Mid
way, Del., does not have to go to
Alaska to get gold. He has found it
on the clay roads that run through
Midway into Rehoboth Beach and
which at this time of the year are
traveled by many automobiles.
Young Joseph waits until a thunder
storm is over, hitches up a pair oi
mules and awaits developments.
The first automobile that comes
along generally strikes the clay and
skids over into the ditch. The owner
of the machine gets out. Both wheels
are buried in mud. Then Joseph ap
pears. The owner of the automobile
smiles as he sees the boy and the
mules. Joseph smiles as he sees the
automobile, and in a few minutes
both smile together,- for the machine
is back on the road and the owner
has slipped Joseph some “clay gold.”
Young Joseph makes no charge,
but it is a poor sport that doesn’t
slip him several dollars. In one day,
after a particularly heavy rain, Jo
seph cleaned up about $20, while
almost any heavy rain is worth from
$10 to $15.
SURE THING.
Crimsonbeak—I see Austria is to
have bakeries under government con
trol.
Yeast—Well, believe me, people
who carry round “buns” need watch
ing.
COMING DOWN, ALL RIGHT.
i __
“Is my hair coming down, Katie?”
asked the lady, with her hand to her
head.
“Yes, ma’am,” replied the girl;
I’m going right upstairs to get it
now.”
ACCOMPLISHED.
“Your daughter seems to be an
accomplished musician.”
“Yes, indeed, she can play any sort
of a one-step her friends want to
dance.”
QUITE LIKELY. ,
“I have a new theory about auto
tires.”
“A theory very likely in the ntr
ture of things to be exploded.” 1
