Bates was enterprising, k Sy was Gates. Bates drove out of tho city, and supplied taverns aloDg the road. And so did Gates. Bates despised mineral-water. Gstes despised bottled ale. Now, it happened that as they often met on the road, each considered that the other supplied his customers, and the supplies o! the other terded to undermine his own. Entertaining a feeling of rivalry on this account, for along time, when they drove by each other, they scowled and coughed deG- i antly, aud at last they came to hostile words | for, one day, they chanced to meet Widow Bluejayla at the samo time, and lugged in their bdttlee together. Here was proof posi tire that each did supply the other's custom ers. "The more ale people drink," argued Gates, "the less mineral water they want. That Injures me. "The more mineral water, the less ale they call for," argued Bates. "I don't like that." The next time they met on the road nei ther would turn out; they drove into each other, and there was a jar of bottles and bad language. Bates now told Gates that the next time he caught him carrying any more of his min erai-water to Widow Bluejay's he'd thrash him. Aud Gates said if Bates toted in any more state ale," and he was by, he would smash him. Each thought he had scared the other out of that; but, a few days after. Bates and Gates again met there, and sat down scowling While each was angrily musiDg on the pros pect of a fight, to determine the fortunes of ale, and mineral water at that place, two young men entered and stood at the bar. One called for bottled ale-—" had got over his last spree by drinking mineral-water," he said, "and was now ready to go into ale again." The other called for mineral-water—"be was thirsday, having drunk so much ale yesterday." Being told, "We'rejust out of each,'' they left—one declaring, if he couldn't get ale, and the other, if he couldn't get mineral water, he would not drink at all. "Sorry my wagon is empty," said Bates. "Sqrry mino happens to be," said Gates. ' Each looked at the other, irresolutely, for a moment, when some good spirit came down and made peace between them—it was Irish whiskey, proffered by tho many jewel led hand of Widow Bluojay herself. ''Ha, ha !" laughed Bates, looking up at mineral water. "IHkjpa !" laughed Gates, lot king down at ale. rZt.> "We're on an even fooling and necessa ry to each other."
