Shakes bought at his store 1,800 dozen eggs; M. M. Cline it Co., about 1J00 dozen; and the groceries and produce merchants about 1,500 dozen. The hens must have been trying thelrselves last week or the small boy brought his basket of Faster eggs out of hiding a day to soon. (Jeorge Comptori, who writes for the Plymouth Kvening News in his letter of Friday spoke about Harry Steinbach having one of hti lingers bit while scuflling with one of his fellow clerks that morning.

Some of our poultry men say that Upton Stansbury, of Plymouth, is all right as long as he talks chicken. Rut

they would like to know if Upton had been out the night before at a meeting of the Bachelor's Club, or some place else, for he must have been looking double when he could not distinguish a hen's egg from a duck's egg, even in color or size. Mrp. James Alexander, who lives two miles northwest of Bourbon, was reported as seriously ill Sunday evening. Willard Lawrence and (Jeorge McCoy were over to Huffman's lake Sunday after ducks.

One of our young men who is not very enthusiastic along the lines followed by the Pentecost band called at its headquarters Saturday afternoon to " beard the lion in his den." The facts are that on Tuesday of last week two members of this band called at the home of this young man for the purpose of holding prayer. They asked

the lady of the house if she was a ! Christian. She told them she was. But the P. R. boys said that she was no Christian so long as she had such as these in the house pointing to a piano, lace curtains, bric-a-brac and some house plants. The lady then very politely, but quickly, asked them to leave the house, and when the young man returned home and heard what had been said he thought it was neces sary for an explanation. His visit yes terday to the headquarters did not re sult seriously to anybody, but a great many words were exchanged. HOW ABOUT THIS, MR. BUNNER? Am KnRlUhnaan Says that II Designed "The H?t American 1'oater." "But," sked the interviewer of Mr. A. Morrow, the English poster designer, who had been discoursing enthusiastically on the developments of his art, "do you think that we in England can compete with the Americans in this respect?" says the Pall Mall Gazette. "If you really insist upon an opinion," said Mr. Morrow, "I could give you one. But I would much rather not." "But why?" "Well, I have a sort of personal association with the American poster which makes it rather difficult for me to preserve a proper impartiality.'" "How is that?" "Well, a month or two ago an American magazine published a finely illustrated article on the American poster. It pointed out how highly the art of the poster has developed in America; it gave a number of examples of American poster work, new and old, and it picked cut from among them one which it said was an exquisitely clever and amusing design, that would take the blue ribbon, judged by the points of artistic poster-making." "Indeed! Which was it?" "It was the poster for the play of 'The New Woman,' when that piece was put on at Palmer's theater, New York. It was drawn, the article said, by Mr. Robert Joste." "Well! Wrhere does the personal interest come in that prevents your expressing an opinion? Did you write the article?" "No, but I designed the poster." "I thought you said it was drawn by Mr. Robert Joste?" "The magazine said so. I only know that it was my design, my drawing, and my poster. I made the design when Mr. Comyns Carr produced 'The New Woman at the Comedy theater in London. The poster was printed in England and exhibited on the boardings throughout the run of the play in London and the provinces. So you see I am rather interested to hear that it was drawn by Robert Joste, and as it takes the blue ribbon of American postermaking me feel some diffidence in answering the question you put to me."
