IJ3 its jg- 1.5 5 To Whom it May Concern: My competitors will tell you that I am not making; farm loans; that my companies have withdrawn from the territory; that you must make your farm loan through them, etc. In answer to this, I have simply to tell you that I have loaned as much money on Thomas County land as all my competitors combined; that I am loaning to-day more money on land than any other loan agent in the county; that I have a direct connection with three large Western Loan Companies, who are not afraid of Kansas wind and weather, who are in the field to stay, and who Want Your Loans. I may not be able to make you as big promises as some will, because my business does not consist of promises; but I Will Loan you as much Money on as Good Terms and as Promptly as any man or firm making loans in this county. Thanking you for past libe'ral treatment, and soliciting your future business, I yours respectfully, F.

It being her birthday she was the recipient of many useful and handsome presents from a multitude of friends.

The party reached the-bouse i at 10 o'clock and took her quite by sur prise as all had been carefully kept secret from her.

A FELINE'S FATE. Some Young Zadles play a Joke oh CautesHlm. to Break out in Rhyme. The other day some young ladies who reside in Colby not over a mile from theU. P.

depot, conceived the idea of playing a great joke on F. G. Nichols, the popular U. P. agent, and accordingly proceeded to devise a plan which would work successfully without their identity becoming known.

The racked their brains from forehead to cabbage neck and at last the dark tragedy, had materialized in their brilliant minds. The? procured the remnant of a Cleveland campaign an old white hat with democratic proclivities and within its ancient walls enclosed a feline. With this menagerie and three special trains they proceeded to the depot for the purpose of presenting Mr. Nichols with the present. He was out rustling business for the freight and passenger department, and some time after returned to his office to figure up the number of cars it would take to export the Thomas county wheat and corn crop to the gulf.

His hilarity at finding a present awaiting him might be more gigantically imagined than the real fact portrayed. "Nick," as the boys call him is naturally witty without trying to be so, and can return a compliment about as quick as the next one. He concluded that as a feline had been considered by the ladies as a present of great value, he could do less than pay them back in the same coin. Now, while everyone knows that "Nick" is a clever musici in, an apt conversationalist, no one probably ever dreamed that he was a poet. But he is, and the delight which he felt upon this occasion caused his sentiments te explode in the following poetic style.

Here is a poor cat put iu a box. With all the cuteness to a fox, Left for Nichols at the U. For a Joke on him, don't you sec. Of course 'twas done fair and straight. Not thinking' of the poor cat's sad fate: But reflect for a moment of this way Of being closely hemmed up for a whole day.
