Overman, the new senator Why Incubator Salesman Failed to|¢% North Carolina, is 49 years old. Impress Uncle Harvey. A shrewd old farmer named Uncle Harvey was approached by a bright, breezy young man who was selling in- cubators. The Green Bag, which tells the story, says that the salesmar gave Uncle Harvey the usual eluquent arguments. There was not another such incubator to be found, the prices were remarkably low, and so on Uncle Harvey did not respond. The young man talked himself out and made no impression. Finally, he said, “You don’t seem to appreciate these incubators.” “No,” said Uncle Harvey. “But just think of the time they will save!” Uncle Harvey gave him one cold look and said. ‘What do you sup- pose I care for a hen’s time?”— Youth’s Companion.

Some of them have an ancient ring, but there is one that is perhaps not generally known. A doctor was attending a dangerous case where a Scotch butler was engaged. On calling in the forenoon he said to Donald: “I hope your master’s temperature is much lower to-day than it was last night.” “I’m no’ sae very sure aboot that,” replied the butler, “for he dee’d this morning.” Worth Watching. A treasury official was fortunate enotgh the other day to get half a ton of coal. The precious fuel was depos- {ted on his sidewalk late in the after- noon and a colored man agreed to put a# away for a quarter. When he had finished the job the man presented a bill for 35 cents. “Why, I thought you said a quarter,” said the ofiiceholder. “A quarter for putting it in, but 10 cents extra to pay a man to watch it. ¥ou see, if some one had taken a cou- ple of handfuls you would have lost nt least half a dollar.”.—New York World. The Sleepy Hour of Night. A head-on collision between twe freight trains on the Southern Pacific in California was due to the careless- ness of the engineer of one of the trains, who slept at his post and paid the forfeit with his life. Manager Al- ger of the Southern Pacific says that the company has great trouble on ac- count of men succumbing to sleep be- tween 3 and 4 in the morning. This was the time at which the accident occurred. It is the sleepy hour that affects men more tkan any other of the day cr night. Notice of Application for Liquor Leiense STATE OF MINNESOTA, t ‘SS.
