An amusing incident occurred in the stovo and tinware storo of William Krick, on South Main street, which has the reputation of be ing ono of the tidiest business places in the town. A lady ontered tho storo the other day, asked for a certain articlo and while ex nraining it her eyes caught thelloor. She stood on her heels, kept moving in a nervous manner that worried tho merchant greatly, and finally said, I'm sorry, but I cannot stand on this damp floor, I feel tho water soaking clear through my shoes and I know I shall be sick." This was too much. fur tlio modest merchant. He explainod that what she mistook for water was only a ne solu tion of oil which is put on floors to arrest the dust. Sbo looked at him a little mysteriously, glanced cautiously and then folt her shoes Finding them perfectly dry sho was induced to remain until her business was finished, but it is doubtful if the woman really bo liovod tbe merchant for she declared to the last that "she know sho would catch cold."
