Hirsh, Manager - 790 Broadway, Peoria, 111. My neighbor says to me, says he, "You ain't got much to do ,by gee, I you loaf around day after day and don't do nothing for your pay. You'll be astonished, I expect, but we've decided well elect you to be justice of the peace; this chicken stealing's got to cease and we all flgger you're the man who'll soak 'em plenty if you can. I tell 'em that you'll never fail to put a chicken thief in jail, you'll never stop for the expense nor for a lack of evidence." \ I told him that it would play hob with my rest if I had a job, but all 1 said was no avail, they voted for me without fail. They counted up the votes and found the other feller was aground. I beat that feller three to one and so my days of rest are done. From this day on I'll $pend my time a-sitting in the haunts of crime, I'll listen to the tales of woe and lawyers pleading to and fro. No matter what the circumstance, whenever I may git a chance 111 sentence them to go to jail, their pleas for mercy won't be of avail, my court will be a place that they'll hate, 111 be a hardboiled magistrate! Duck Crossing's barber has tried six different times to tell < that new story he heard in the city but he never gets it more *han half told till some woman comes into the shop. Whenever there is work to be done, there are always a dozen people ready to stand abound and tell how it ought to be done, to every one willing to roll up his sleeves and pitch in and help do it. That's one reason why advice is so cheap. It is also the reason why the fellow who does take hold and trie& to do something, always forge# to the front. Success comes only to those willing to try. Mistakes may be made, but the one who makes no mistakes seldom makes anything else worth while. It is the "go-getter" that eventually brings home the bacon. The world lifts its hat to the person with the courage to do things. It eventualy lifts its foot to the others. A negro mammy has a family of well-behaved boys.

So I shot him." "Strange," mused the first tramp, "how few of our youthful dreams come true." Oh, I don't know," said the second tramp, "I remember how I used to dream about wearin' long pants, and now I guess I wear 'em longer than anyone else in the country."

TINGLING EACH MINUTE The number of telephone conversations varies considerably from hour to hour throughout the day The greatest number occur in the 'mornings and afternoons, and they fall away to almost nothing during the email hours of the early morning. Yet if all the calls in the United States during 1926 had been evenly distributed throughout the day and night, there would have been more than 45,000 telephone conversations begun every sixty seconds. On the same basis an average of every minute for the operating expenses involved in caring for the 45,000 telephone calls, and of the above amount the telephone industry} would have been busy paying $150 a minute into the public treasury in the form of taxes. Unfortunately the business world does not carry on,, smoothly and evenly, all day and night. The telephone industry must maintain a huge •ystem to care fo^ the peak loads that come around ten in the nlorning and three in' the afternoon, and also maintain this huge plant ready for ; instant service all through the night when it is little used. May, 1887 The grain market was very much excited during list week. On Wednesday therf was a very large attendance at the Chamber of Commerce in Chicago, including a large number of ladies who eagerly watched the rise and fall and intently noted the fluctuations. On that day the advance on wheat was at one time 13% cents; corn closed at an advance of 5%; oats were 3 cents better; rye 5 and 6 cents, and barley 5 and 7 cents higher, and pork, lard hogs and cattle showed a marked advance. Thursday last was a gala dsty among our german friends, the occasion being the marriage of Henry Stilling and Miss Kennebeck.

M "It has com? to our attention that certain parties are soliciting advertising in various localities in Illinois for various periodicals, and the latest is for a so-called State police maga zine. "We are informed that "the solicitors claim it is necqisary for the State Motorcycle Police .to resort to this method for securing funds to pay benefits to their members Btating^ £hat on account of their hazardoua occupations they are unable to get insurance except at a very high rate. "We will appreciate it if you will advise through your paper that such solicitation is made without the approval of the Department of Public Works and Buildings, and that such solicitors are, in our judgment, using these methods of obtaining funds for their own use, as the officials of this Department have never sanctioned or approved of any official or employee of the Department soliciting or obtaining funds by such means. "W'e will appreciate it if all advertisers and business and professional men who are likely to be approached by such solicitors could be advised through your paper fully on tfris point so they may know that all money collected is entirely for the benefit andgain of the solicitors, and perhaps the magazine they represent, and that the officials of this Department disapprove of such mothods of obtaining money from the advertising public.

Ask the head of your department if he will allow you sufficient time from your regular duties to tour all of the hard roads of Illinois, driving at the uniform rtftfe of thirty-five miles an hour and eight hours a day. . Possibly on first thought kf. will agree to it. . " But If he is of a mathematical turn of mind, he will not accept your proposition. He may recall that there are 5,466.77 miles of eighteen feet concrete slab stretching across the state in all directions. A little use of his office pencil will show him that it would require 19 days, four hours and 10 minutes to cover all of the hard roads at the speed specified.
