It is said that his sweet tenor voice has been replaced by a baritone, and his taste for music has gradually declined. The American theory and doctrine that "I am as good as you" may be disadvantageous very often, but it is after all the true doctrine of push, vim, getup and get, which characterizes all who are truly progressive. It is the assumption, the self-assertion, in general slang terms, the cheek, the gall, tho brazen audacity of vim and vigor andofttimes necessity which wins tho battle in the contest for supremacy nowadays in both business and in politics. The true American will never concur in the doctrine that one star differeth from an-

This new firm will also conduct a repair shop. De Loney S: Firestone will receive power from the same engine. The sensational report that the heavenly bodies will occupy the same position to-night as on the date of Christ's birth has been pronounced by astronomers as untrue.

Sullivan bought a goat for which he paid live dollars. Shortly after he received a tax bill on the goat of eight dollars. He called on Rafferty, the assessor, and said, "Why do you tax me eight dollars for him?"

Mr. Jerry Rlain, who returned from California last week, tells some interesting stories of California life. He says it is the place for monied men to live or for those who own orange ranches, and during the winter makts an ideal home. During his live months stay he did not see a bit of ice except that manufactured for commercial purposes. Only one frost occurred audit did no damage except to the bananas, and that only slightly. When he left, the winter's crop of fruit was being gathered. One man said he would ship 12,uio boxes of oranges and received a box for them, and many others had as large yields.
