There was once little, slim-built fellow, rich
as Jew, and as independent as the devil, riding
along highway in the State Of Georgia, when

"No, sir; I'm to work by the month"
"What pay might you be getting, friend"
Ten dollars month and whiskey thrown in, "
was the reply.
"Well, look here, Tn weak, little inofIensive
man, and people are apt to impose upon me, dye

said Mr. Gardner. But, " he added, as q thought
struck him, show might you be on iightl"
"Never been licked in my liGe," rejOined the
six-footer.
"Just the man I want It's a bargain ?"
queried Gardner.
Six-loOter ruminated. Twenty-Five dollars
double wages-nothing 10 do but to ride around
and smash fellows mug occasionally when he's
sassy.
Six.footer accepted.
They rode along till just at night they reached
q village inn. Dismounting at the door, they
went in. Gardner Immediately singled out the
biggest man in the room, and picked fuss with
him. After considerable promiscuOus jawing,
Gardner turned to his fighting friend, and init
mated that the licking Of that man had become q
a sad necessity. Six.GoOter peeled, went in, and
came out first best.
The next night, at another hotel, the same
scene was re-enacted- Gardener getting in row
with the largest man in the place, and Six-foOteT
doing the fighting
At last on the third day, they came to ferry

Gardner, as usual, began TO find fault and blow v
The ferryman naturally got mad, threw things
around, and told him his opinion Of their kind.
Gardner turned TO his friend and gently broke
the intelligence to him, "that he was sorry, but
that It was absolutely necessary to thrash that
ferryman."
Six EOoter nodded his head, but said nothing.
Il was plainly to bo seen that he did not relish
the job, BY the way he shrugged his shoulders,
but there was no help for T. So when they
reached the shore, both stripped, cod at Il they
went Up and down the bank, over the sand, in
the water they fought, scratched, gouged, bit and
rolled, till, at the end Of an hour, the ieFTymAn

been tough work. Going up TO his employer
