A STATESMAN’S ADVENT.
Expected a Scnsation, and They Were Not Disappointed.
The galleries were crowded. A hush of expectancy pervaded the legislative ehamber. It had been rumored that the new member from Spike county would address the house. He sat motionless iv his seat, apparently oblivious of the fact that hundreds of eyes were upon him. A close observer, however, might have noticed that his face was slightly paler than usual and that a resolute purpose expressed itself in his set features, the rigid poise of hig head and a certain faraway look in his large gray eyes.
Presently he rose and in a deep voice that trembled slightly, not from embar- rassment, but frem excess of earnest- ness, began to speak.
‘In behalf of the honest yeomanry of the county I have the honor to represent in the legislature of this great state, Mr. Speaker,’’ he said, ‘‘and for the purpose of placing on record my own solemn conviction as well, I arise, sir, to give notice that I shall introduce next Thursday a bill for an act declaring it to be acrime against civilization, sub- versive of the peace and quiet of all or- derly communities and an offense pun- ishable by fine and imprisonment at the discretion of courts and juries, for any family within the boundaries of this state to keep more than one parrot, one canary bird or one cat!’’
Amid a buzz of gratified expectation he sat down, and people looked at each other and nodded their heads. The hour and the man had come. Another states- man and reformer had burst upon the world.—Chicago Tribune.
Poople
Great Expectations.
There had been a collision between the street car and the bicyclist. The street car had made the touchdown.
‘‘How did this thing happen?’’ de- manded the policeman.
‘I don’t know,’’ replied the cycler earnestly. ‘‘I did everything I could. 1] rang my bell and yelled for the blamed old car to get out of the way, but it didn’t. That's all.’’—Cincinnati Com- mercial Tribune.

BUYING AT HOME.
_
—
Here are some ex'1a*ts from an editoria ins recent issue vi ie Canton, Ohio» Roller :
“Have you ever th «ht how much you might hasten the returu of prosperity by buying your goods at home? If not, it is lime you gave the matter serious cousider- ation. At this particular season of the year, you are constantly receiving cata)- ogues and circulars setting forth the special bargains of out-of-town merchants and dealers, and too often you yield to those flattering offers, sending your good, bard cash in advance for something, a kample of which in many instances you have never seen; and when yon get the article itself disappointment often greets you] for it is no betier and quite frequent- ly not as good as you eould have gotten right at home or the same or even less money. Your home merchant is indeed your friend, if you will only stand by him as vou should.
“The entire patronage of any community is due the home merchant because he has invested his capital and adds to the general wealth of the locality in which he is situat- ed by the value of the stock he carries and by his business ability. He is also wide awake to the securing of new industries and a liberal contributor to all Jegitimate purposes. Notwithstanding all tis he’s a much abused man, for when you have monty to spend you go somewhere eise, but when you want credit you come tohim, Now yon can keep upthis drain on the
community and make it poorer by every dollar you send away from home, or you cap patronize your home dealer, benefit your community aod in fact yourself by the u!timate reduction which in time be would be able to make in price.”
