THE ToUoHY Cows.-"I learned a lesson
when I was little GIRL says lady. zone
frosty morning was looking out of the
window into my fathers farmyard, where
stood many COWS and oxen and horses, wait
ing to drink. The cattle all stood very
still and meek till one of the COWS, in at
tempting to turn round, happened to hit
her next neighbor, whereupon the neigh
Dor kicked another. In five minutes the
whole herd were kicking each other with
great fury. My mother laughed and said !:
"See what comes of kicking when you are
hit" Just so, I have seen one cross word
set whole family by the ears, on frosty
morning. Afterward, ifmy brothers or
myself were little irritable, she would
say "Take care, my children. Remember
how the fight in the barnyard began. Never
return kick for hit, and you will save
yourselves a great deal of trouble"

A Coon MAN TO BE A KANSAS SENATOR.

A Coop MAN TO BE A KANSAS SENATOR.
Jim H., out West tells good story about
"Shellbark lawyer" His client was up
on two small charges" as Shellbark desig-
mated them-Qorging note of hand and
stealing horse). On running his eye over
the jury he didn't like their looks, so he
prepared an affidavit for continuance, set
ting forth the absence of a principal wit
ness. He read it in whisper to the pris-
oner, who, shaking ais head, said esquire,
can't swear to that dokyment." "Why 2"
"Kase hit haint true" Old Shell inflated
and exploded loud enough to be heard
throughout the room. "What forge a
note an steal horse, an can't swear to a
lie! Hang such Internal FOOLS" And he i'm
mediately left the conscientious one to his
fate.
