A SUMMER
BOOM
By M QUAD
Coryrlfiht. lni. hy Assoclntcd Lit
eral I'rcMi
It was Deacon Spooner who started
It. Tho doctor sent him off to a sum
tner resort for two weeks to get n.i
I of fever, nnd when ho came home tie
had tho biggest kind of nn Idea In Ins
head, lie got down to tho poutollhe
i that same evening nnd snld to th
crowd:
"What wo want to do Is to turn in
' nnd make Digit II ill a summer resort.
She's got everything the heart could
wish for, and If we don't see lu.OUO
people here next summer it will be
our own fault. I'm primed with facta
and statistics, and I inovo wo call a
public meeting for next Tuesday evuu
lng." Tho idea met with favor, and Hip
meeting wns called, and during the
interval the price of butter and eggs
wpnt up 30 per cent. Most of the
families In town decided on taking
boarders, und they decided that $lu
per week would bo a fair charge.
There was a large turnout nt the
meeting, and Deacon Spooner went
right to business by calling for order
and saying:
"The idea is to turn nigh mil Into
a summer resort nnd welcome thou
sands to her gates. To get n boom
under way our motto must be 'l'ro
Bono Publico." There must be no
hanging out, no examples of individ
ual selfishness. I'm one who is will
ing to turn my house into a hotel for
the summer to accommodate the
strangers who will come here, nnd
I'll also make the price of board its
roasonnblo as possible."
"Deacon, about what would be your i
price for board?" asked Truelove
White from the nudience.
"From $10 to S12 a week. 1 guess.'
was the reply.
"And what would you fodder the
people on?" '
"Mostly on meat nnd taters. but of
course apple snss and custards would
come in pretty frequent." i
"Then I move that the price of board 1
be fixed nt $11 per week all round,
witb extra for wa.slibowls nnd lookln i
glasses." I
The deacon put the motion to the
meeting, and it was carried, and he
then said: j
"There will bo hundreds come here i
who will want in hnv lnnrl nnrt hnllil I
cottages. I've got twenty village lots.J
and in order to start the ball rolling
I'll put 'em in nt a low value. I hope
others will follow my example."
What would you call a low value.
deacon?" asked Moses Turner as he
rose up.
"Well, I might say 5400 apiece. I
presume they'd bring twice that, but
we don't want to rob nnybody."
Then came the question of hauling
the people to and from the railroad
Nothing so discourages a person as to
meet with extortion on the start He
had thought the matter over, and It
wns his idea that the charge should
he $2 per capita In each direction. In !
case any one started a livery stable in
town and three or four such instltu-1
tlons would be sure to rise up the tlxed
rate should not be above $5 an hour J
for a horse and buchboard. When he
was at a summer resort he had long-
od for pumpkin pie, nnd it was not to
be had. People who came to High Hill
would long. The pumpkin pie would
be ready, but there must bo no extor-
tion. Every pie. no matter whether .
round or square, should bo cut into j
four pieces and the price per piece
should be 'Jfi cents.
There was one thing more, and the
deacon proceeded to state it. The
people should turn out to welcome
every new arrival and make him feel
to home, tint for every such turnout j
there should he n fixed charge of ".()
cents, and the same should be collect- 1
ed with the hoard bill. The meeting
adjourned timid great enthusiasm, and .
Feveral of the houses were lllutnlnnt
ed in honor of the occasion, nnd every
body went to bed hnppy. They were
still rejoicing next day when a tin
peddler came along, lie heard what
had happened, nnd then he shook hla
bead nnd mournfully replied:
"I'm sorry, but you people "will bo
disappointed.'
"But how?" was asked.
"Why. Halifax is offering all that
you nre und is going to throw In two
mudholes nnd the brickyard for noth
ing, nnd the crowd will nil go that
way."
"Then we've got to have n cave?"
Bald one of the boomers. "Everybody
coming to a summer resort expects to
see n enve and is willing to pay f0
cents to wnnder around In it."
"But Halifax has got ono, nnd the
admission Is only 10 cents."
"But wo can advertise spelling
schools every evening in the summer."
"They've thought of that over
there "
"Then we'll have a camp meeting.
That'll he a novelty worth a dollar a
head to sinners from the city."
"nnllfnx Is already ndvertising that
very thing."
"Look a here," said tho boomer in
Ills desperation, "wo can't bo beat
We've two pairs of twins to show in
this town, und tho prico won't bo
over 10 cents."
"And Hnllfax is going to show trip
lets for a nickel," nnswered tho ped
dler as he turned away.
Only one summer rcsorter appeared
at nigh Hill that 6eason, and be slept
In a fence corner and ttlolo apples fot
his breakfast
AND sue?
SURE, YES
IT win all because ho didn't
rend tlio papers. Every
body has hoard of old
Hiram Gink, who went to the
big city and bought a gold
brick. That was twenty
years ago, but ho is still tho
saino old Hi. His boast then
wns that he didn't road the
papers, and ho makes the
same brag now.
IF HE HAD INVESTED $1
A YEAR WITH THE NEAR
EST EDITOR IT WOULD
HAVE SAVED HIM $200.
But he stiid his old dad had
never paid out good money
for "any of them measly
sheets, and, by gum, I won't

So ho has been EASY
