WE MEAN BUSINESS.
A evr Brand.
One day when trade was dull, a gro
cery clerk procured a piece of sole
leather from a shoemaker, painted it
black and laid it asido for future use.
Within a lew days an old chap from
back in the country came in and in
quired for a plug of chewing-tobacco.
The piece of sole leather was tied up,
paid for, and tho purchaser started for
home. At the end of the sixth day
i he returned, looking downcast and de
i jeeted, and walking into the 6tore lie
inquired lor the clerk.
The clerk was called and came up
emiling.
i As toon as be cast his eye on the old
man, he recognized at once his shoe
leather customer, and commenced to
, feel quite weak in the knees.
i However lie kept a sober lace and
J awaited develqpmeuts.
j Said-the old man :
' 'Member that terbackcr I got here
the other day '"
"Yes, sir."
"Well, was that a new brand ?"
"Yes."
"Regular terbackcr was it ?"
"Yes."
"Weil, then, it's me. It's right here
in my jaws," eadly replied the old
man. "1 kiiowed 1 was gettin' putty
old, but I was alius handy on bitin'
plug. I never seed a plug afore this
one that 1 couldn't tear to pieces at a
chew. I sot my teeth on this one and
bit and pulled and twisted like a dog
at a root, and I've kept bitin' and pul
liu' for six days, and thar she am now,
the same as the day you sold her to
me ?"
Seems to be a good plug," remarked
the clerk, as lie smelt of the counter
feit. She's all right; it's me that's fail
in'!" exclaimed the old mau. "Pass
me out tome fine cut, and I'll go
home and deed the farm to the boys
and get ready lor the grave myself."

Harboring in Lcadvllle.
Life iu Lcadvillc is full of excito
nicnt even for a barber. The other day
a citizen named Plug strolled into a
barber's establishment where there
were two chairs, both full, and four
teen men waiting. If there is ono
thing that Plug despises, It is waiting
around while a lot of other fellows get
shaved. He figured on how to avoid
it, and espying a friend in one of the
chaii-ij he stepped up to him and spoke
a few words in a low tone. Suddenly
lie became excited. Addressing his
friend he cried : "You third-rate mule
whacker, I'll have your gore!" And
tho friend yelled back, "You greaser,
I 111 shoot you lull ot holes! ' "lean
j shoot first," yelled the plug, drawing
! his revolver." "I'll let you ce you
can't," roared the lriend, leaping lrom
his chair. By this time a scene of
wild excitement was taking place in
the shop. The whole fourteen wait
ing customers were wildly struggling
to get out before the shooting began.
Tlie man iu , tho other chair, without
stopping to' wipe the lather from his
face or remove the apron about him,
leaped from the window upon tho
head of a policeman, who at once ar
rested him for a madman. One of the
barbers had bumped his hoad terribly
and got hi mouth full of dust, crawl
ing under a sofa, and tho other barber
was promptly concealed behind a bar
rel in tlie closet. As soon as the shop
was cleared the two friends stopped
threatening each other, put up their
pisiols and after a hearty laugh coax
ed l he barber to come out and shavo
tliem. I'hu tried to explain to the
head barber that it was all a joke.
But," said tho barber, "voure a
fighting man." "No," said "Plug, "I
am a regular coward and couldn't lick
a Ilea." 'Then by tunkct," yelled tho
barber, "you've driven over $b worth
of trade away from me and I'll take
the value out of your hide!" And he
got in several lusty blows on Plug be
fore the latier-could oiler to settle.
And, somehow, Plug doesn't think it
was such a good joke after all.
