THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. Jones Took it Sick. "Say dear," RaUl an Kvansvlllo wife to hor husband, "that illmo you gavo mo this morning for milk was no good.'' "Didn't givo you no bad dime," growled Jones. "You did too, I guess I know." "No, I nover. You've been getting Rome dauged ribbons or something down town, and they gavo it to you in cliango. Women ain't got no fionso no how. "Hut you handed it to mo youmclf." "Didn't." "Yes you did and I want you to tako it back." "I won't." "Yes you will, you old wretch." "Won't." "Well you just will now; you seo if you don't- I'll show you if women haven't got sense." At noon Airs. Jonas was all smiles. nnd waited on her husband so nicely that ho iolt like telling her that ho had given her the dime, and was sorry, and would L'ivo her another, but concluded ho would wait till ovening. As sho handed him a nico picco of pie, sho re marked : William, you'll have to eat tins in a hurry j its nearly time to go to tho office." William bolted it down, but all of a sudden gagged, and thon swallowed something as it it hurt him. "Mary Jane," said he, "I list swal lowed something that didn't feel right. What do you supposo could havo got into that pioi "How did it feel, William t" "Oh, sorter hard and round." "Well, I cuess it was that dime.

It is tho manner of disposing of a crop which makes tho profit in nearly all 1 .! . i cases, uiu especially is una uuu in ru card to early potatoos. To get tho best price, thero must bo in tho market as soon as possible ; a week will givo one an opportunity of disposing of a wbolo crop boloro a competitor can bring in his produco and tho prices fall. Now potatoos are easily damaged; the skin slips readily, and this spoils their appearance, and of courso their value. Tuo use of a convenient pack ago for tho potatoes, in which they can be handled and carried to tho consum er, brings them to him in the nicest possiblo shape Purchasers liko to Seo neat, clean packages, anil aro ploascu to know when thov contain full meas ure. A splint basket makes an excel lent package, but is not economical of room, anil ono basket cannot bo set up on another without rubbing tho pota toes. If tho baskots aro mado square, with straicrht sides, thov aro better. But a wooden box is moro durable and convenient. It should bo sixteen inches long, thirteen and one-quarter inches wide, and thirteen inches deep; this makes ono heaped bushel when tho box is level full, containing two thousand seven hundred and fifty-two cubio inches. Such boxes Ho closo together in a wagon box and no space is lost. American Agriculturist for July. Bedloe's Island. ISedlou's Island, tbo site of Barth- oldi's Statuo of Liborty, was named after its owner, Isao liedloo, previous to 1G70. whin an instrument was issued by tho Govornor of Now Xork to Bedloe, in which it was .stated that in consideration ol improvements mado future be known as Lovo Island, and should bo a privileged place, whero uo arrest could bo mado or warrant serv ed except by special consent of tho Governor. After tho doath of Bedloo the Island fell to Mb daughter, Mrs, Mary Smith, whoso trustees sold it to Captain Aenneuy, ot the iiritish army. for 100, by whose namo it wag gener ally known until purchased by New York City in 1750 for a pest houso site. In 1800 the island was conveyed to the United states, and iortilicatious began in 1814. In 1811 the Btar-shap- cd fort called Fort Wood was built at a cost of $214,000, and it would mount seventy guns and hold a garrison of 350 men. .During tho civil war the island and its buildings wero used for hospital purposes. In later years the name Bedloe's Island becamo tho ex clusive ono used to designate it, though Lovo Island appears by thojrecord to be its legal name. Paying a voter's poll tax is, under. uiu uuiisuiuuuii, ruguruuu ;ia giving uiu voter a valuable consideration and is good ground for the forfeiture of his right of suttragc. Judge Fell, of Phil ndclpbia, has recently delivered a deeis ion in a school director contested elec tion case, reaffirming this view. The Jtidgo says: "Tho man who should havo his grocery bill or any other debt paid lor mm cn nn inducement or con sideratioti to get him to vote would bo held clearly In violate this hcclioit Yel, in principle, thero is no difference between plying his taxes and paying any other of his debts." Tho cam paign funds rained by tho political as NC'Ksment of officeholders under former administrations were used to debauch the elections in this way, as well as to pay voters in cash. In many 'instances runt, groceries, coai, iurmiure and oili er household effects wero purchased for thoso who wero willing to sell their votes. Tho ttulh is, tho man who has no more appreciation of his rights as an American citizen nor respect for liis manhood than to allow somu politician to pay his voting lax at most but a low cer.is on o moderation of con trolling tho latter's vote, is tiuwoithy oi uaviiig uiu piiviiegu in uiu iraiv ehise.

From that timo the subject wis studied by many scientists, without nnv deeid cd result, down to 1889.

A good-looking, middlo-ascd man, whoso slow Ktcp octokenlng feebleness of licaltli, says tho Now York Tribune, entered a litllo shop down town, yes. terday, and mirohased a wicker basket for 81.25. IIo look out n roH ot bille, looked them over, and then paid : "I find I havo nothing smaller than a 10 bill. If you will send your boy to my ollleo with S3 75 in ohange, I will givo him n $5 In payment." The boy was sent out a few minutes after the man bad gone, with the chnimo for tho 85 bill in Ills pocket. When lie icaeb cd tho toi of tho stairs on tbo lloor of tho building in which the man said he had nn olliee, he wns greeted by the purchaser, who took tho change. "My boy, I find I haven't got a ?5 bill," Bald he, in a very benevolent way. "Would you mind wailing hero until I go down into tho street and get this 810 bill broken t" Tho oftlco boy was anxious nbout tho 8:1.75 which he had given tlio man. IIo looked at tbo man slinrply, as if to discover his game, but ho appeared to havo such an honest face that tho boy decided not to say anything about it, but would keep bis cyo open nil the same. As soon as tho mild-inauncrcil man had reached the street the boy followed, but kept out of sight as much ns possible. IIo soon discovered that tho man with his money had recovered tho active uso of bis legs and was hur rying down the street at a surprising rato of speed. The boy hesitated no longer. IIo ran swiftly down the street until he camo up behind the fugitive, and then drawing back liis fist ho de livered a sudden blow at the man's backbone, which had tho effect of tip ping him over upon tho sidewalk. "dive mo my 83.75," said the boy, thrusting his hand into tlio man's face. Tho man pulled out tho change, gavo it to the messenger, and then, without wniting to explain tlio matter to a po liceman who camo up, rushed around tho corner In great haste. 'That man has been playing that littlo gamo for soveral months nnd has made money by it," said a business man who saw tho incident nnd heard tho boy's story. "Hoy, you aro a plucky fellow and will raako a first-class po liceman if you keep on." "No Hies on me," ho replied, as ho gavo tho merchant a wink and threw a banana skin at a stray doy.
