A cieaier wno nas been over the county a good deal, says large numbers of fields are affected, and that as a result the crop will bo much lighter than was at one time anticipated.

The Interstate Commerce law com pels the posting in a conspicuous place of all schedules of rates and fares, for the information of the pub lic. This is not a schedule of rates or fares, but is a statement of my per sonal feelings for being opposed to the tree coinage ot silver: 1. Because my present pay won't enable me to buy everything on earth and I have no desire to have that pay cut in two.

2. Because I prefer to have what few dollars I earn worth 100 cents a piece, not 53 cents. 3. Because 1 do not seo why should be any better off if tho price ot everyuinig j. nau 10 ouy doubled.

4. Because I have no idea that it would profit me if the whole country went uanKrupt. 5. Because, though the ratio tnav now be 16 men out of work to 1 who has a job, I have no desire to swell the ratio by turning tramp myself. G.

Because, though I do not hap pen to be general manager ol this road, I am still no blooming fool. It is a matter of surprize that the universality of a bicycle has not produced an extensive vernacular. As a matter of lact, the "slang" express ions in general use, as gathered by an eastern contemporary, are but few. Cyclist is a legitimate and compre hensive word that is shorter than wheelman or wheelwoman. In faraway New Zealand the awful word "cvclodonna" has been coined a3 a substitute for wheelwoman.

In many western towns the fair rider is called without regard to her costume. The word "scorcher" as indicating a speedy cyclist, is fairly engrafted upon th language. In Chicago however, the "scorcher" is railed a "scout." The technicalities of the machine have led to attemps upon the part of j'oung men to coin expressions. "Your tire is punctured," indicates that the story you are telling lacks the probable element of truth. Reckless statements are called '-coasting." A very ancient yarn is not called a but a "century." A young couple showing a mutual fondness are "riding tandem." A man leading a fast life is "geared too high." An old fogy is referred to as a "high wheel," A chaperon is known as a "pacemaker." A cheap bicycle is called a "gaspipe." machine.

A professional racer is a "pro." It would be hard to convince a man suffering from bilious colic that his rgony is due to a microbe with an un- pronouncable name. But one dosie of DeWitt's Colic Cholera Cure will con vince his of its power to afford instant relief. It kill pain. For sale by Tay lor Bros.
