There is one enduring tradition of the hotel business in the United States, and its outward symbol is the printed line on country hotel bill ‘Corkage.” At an earlier period, when wine drinking at meals was less common, it was custom of hotel patrons to bring ir own wines. As every hotel keeper had, or was supposed to have, wine for sale at a profit, it was to the hotel keeper's in- terest to discourage the bringing of wine to table by guests, and therefore the practice originated of a charge for corkage, usually one dollar, which was In excess of the wine at the hotel. The effect was to compel wine drinkers to buy from the hotsl. In these days there is little roason why hotel patrons should “bring their own wines,” and the fact is that few do 80. Though the reason for the line “corkage” on hotel bills of fare is passed, the line Ralf has xot. Longest Bridge Span.

The top planks for three feet In the center of the stall should be three-quarters of an inch apart.

This tale comes from New Cale donia, where a ship was loading up with natives to work in Australia: “There was a man and a girl-a young couple, they seemed. She had a youngster, who began yelling at sight of the boat. ‘Can't take that youngster!’ the boss shouted. The woman said she wanted to come, too. ‘No, we can't ship that squalling Ht tle beast. Leave him with his aun. tia’ There was no auntle in aight 80 the Kanaka man, after taking a look around caught the kiddie by the heels, swung her round like a rabbit, and dashed her head agin a tree ‘Bhe was only a girl anyway” he sald, and slung her body into the scrub. Then they both hopped into the oat and were shipped aboard.” | DEMOCRATIC CO. COMMITTEE «1908. | Bellefonte, N.W_ 1 C Rarper | 8 W.
