Some say thal ap as I am to have the profits, ng should take oll the risk. If I promised $30,000 in township bonds )0 I could bettor afford it. But it is go nd ing to take all of the $17,000 in town an ship bonds and the $3,000 in towi ud bonds to finish the road.

The profits if any, will be in operating the roai Vi which the builders have agreed to do ia- I shall now show my good faith ant J. fairness by making the propositior ist bettor. I will deposit with the Clerl ur of the Court, Maj J.M. Stewart, $60, or 000 in first mortgage bonds of thc od railroad to indemnify those who sigi of the proposed bond to me, to be deliv In ered to the obligors in case the, ny should have their bond to pay. 'Bu tro the chances are against their havini the bond to pay; for I propose to fit ay ish the road not only according 388 ay contract, but better than the contrac ial requires, by not using any pine cros est ties on the grade.

nd Sixteen thousand dollars worth work, exclusive of cross ties, whic have been discarded, has been don upon the line. It is a good and tho oughly practical grade, and all tb Ia bridges are as good as now. nug The lawyers and laity are alike i ng the opinion that the bonds will hav e' to be delivered as as the road i mr built according to the contract. we I jnEt need your credit ninety day to put this delivery of the bonds LVO yond a doubt. I do not ask a con Ahs in aid-of the building of the road.

"ct Put your heads and hands togethe on the bond, and I will put the rail id, on the ties and the wheels on th ar- rails. Respectfully, tro Nov. 19th. Jusuu E. Boos.

tvO Always Polite. blis Illustrating a case of real polite nd noss, a story is told of a famou as Now York clergyman, as he tell nd it. One Sunday, not long ago, mi was (oing up the steps of his churc nv when he was asked by an old lad (- (who, of course, did not kno him) to help her up. With usual couritly grace he complic em with her request. On reaching ti: the top stop)s, she hal ted, breathlessl' is askedl him who was going be preach that day.

"The Rev. jib- Blank," he replied, giving his ow name. "Oh, oxclaimn ice the old lady "help me down agait I'd rather listen to a man sharp: nd oining a saw. Please hielp. me dow fari again.

I reckon I won't go in. to The clergynian smiled and genti oir assisted her down the stairs agait of remarking, as he reached the ill walk: "I wouldn't go in, eithei ho if I wasn't paid for it." as lhe One clay a beautiful girl looke ic out of her window, and saw hec rude brother on the pavemoni walking about on his hands wit eyhis feet in the air. "Tom," sh said reprovingly, "don't Tom, wou ldn't do that, Tone--indeed would not." ''You wouldn't?" rc rio plied the rude boy looking up ani nld speafking with marked and mali e.d cious emphasie, "You wouldn't rer Ry Jackcs you couldn 't ho Miss Highkicker--Are these dic mends false? ill "No, indeed, they are as true a ry my love for you," replied Johnn Masher.
