Old Gray Mule Makes Fortune for
West Virginia Farmer.
Enoch Morgan, 78 years old, for half
a century a resident of Webster coun-
ty, W. Va, is perhaps the happiest man
alive today. From poverty in the
worst form he has come to great
wealth, and all through the trade of a
mule, thirty-one years ago. Morgan,
thirty-onb years ago lived in a little
hut near Webster Springs. His only
possession was a small gray mule, and
he kept it for years and years, until he
became worthless with age.
A few years later Morgan entered
into a trade, accepting 750 acres of
land. very mountainous and hilly, for
the mule. The land was practically
worthless, and Morgan could scarcely
raise enough on it to pay the taxes. In
the thirty-one years the land became
more valuable, but its owner being of
the Rip Van Winkle type, continued to
sleep.
Recently a timber concern prospect-
ing through that section in search of
timber, met with old Morgan. The
concern offered him $35,000.in cash for
the 750 acres. Morgan jumped at the
offer, not knowing whether the concern
meant business, or was “kidding” him.
The deal was closed, and Morgan now
has $35,000 in cold cash in the Webster
Springs Bank to his credit, all through
the sale of his little gray mule.—Ex.
HARD TIMES IN KANSAS.
The old days of grasshoppers and
drouth are almost forgotten in the pros-
perous Kansas of to-day; although a
citizen of Codell, Earl Shamburg, has
not yet forgotten a hard time he en-
countered. He says: “I was worn out
and discouraged by coughing night and
day, and could find no relief till I tried
Dr. King’s New Discovery. It took
less than one bottle to completely cure
me.” The safest and most reliable
cough and cold remedy and lung and
throat healer ever discovered. Guaran-
teed at E. H. Miller's drug store. 50c.
and $1.00. Trialbottle free. 11-1
Customer Had Worst of It.
An eastern paper tells us that a cus-
tomer who recently went to a local
store to buy an ax, found the price to
be ten cents higher than he could get
the same article from the mail order
house at Chicago, and on making a
complaint to that effect, the merchant
agreed to “knock off” the dime, pro-
viding the customer would give him
the same treatment that he gave the
Chicago house, and then the fun began.
The customer paid ninety cents for the
dollar ax. He then had to pay two
cents postage and three cents for the
money order. Then he had to pay the
merchant twenty-five cents for express,
and was on the point of taking the ax,
when he was told he would have to
leave the ax at the store for three or
four days, the time it would take for it
to come from Chicago. As several
witnesses were present when the agree-
ment was made, the customer had to
comply with all the above terms, and
on summing it up afterwards, he found
he had paid $1.20 for a dollar ax, and
still saved writing paper, envelope and
loss of time to write the letter, and the
risk of a duplicate money order.
The customer was on a par with the
merchant who sends to the “Cheap
John” city print shops for his printed
stationery.

Old maids who live in Washington,
D. C., have been appalied by the fact
that there are 11,820 more women in
that city than there are men, and that
out ot every 14 women in the district,
13 can get husbands if the men want
them, while the fourteenth will have
to live single or import herself a man
from some other place. These figures
are the result of the census taken by
the police. The total population of the
town is 326,435, of whom 157,308 are
men and 169,132 are women. The
white population is 221,417, and the
| colored population is 95,018, so-that the
| colored people constitute nearly one-
| third of the population. It is stated
