The Victory of a Hardware Clerk.

A sprightly looking man with sandy whis-
kers and buff colored satchel entered hard
ware store recently, where he encountered
the head clerk whose humor frequently takes
practical turn.
Good morning, SIR said the sprightly
looking man as he began to open his satchel.
"Bad day out" @
Don't want any cutlery" responded the
clerk f''
"But assure you sir" a-
"por't want any chisels, nor hammers,
100. ,irn.t'e k.
m NV ,l,rr sir -'
"Il.u't want amy hund saws, stoves, era.
d'. A'd"s, axes nor naylhing else. Don't
want even lin horn" .
BY this time the sprightly looking man
had unbuckled the straps of his valise,
dipped down into it and brought to light
small, curioasly shaped machine, which he
held up to view with proud smile.
This, sir" said he, "isa model of SimP-
sons celebrated cooking stove and wash pot
combined. You will see that the movement
is rendered reciprocal by this simple"
"ly friend,' interrupted the clerk, ode
you know that you are liable to be counted
out at any moment? The returning board
is in session right here" "i@
'But just do me the kindness to examine
this beautiful piece of mechanism. II
'See here, stranger" responded the clerk,
''dd you er.know crippled man to be.
come PRESIDENT"
"No, sir, believe not" a'A
"Well, if you've got any ambition tha
way you'd better leave this store. because in
a general scuffie between you and meyos
might get your leg broken over some Of tbss'
ovens and things"
The sprightly man took the hint, repackec
his model, and left in a hurry, while the
head clerk went to the drawer, selected the
cleanest-looking so bill and put it in hi
pocket as a token of victory.

a TEXAS SToRY.-'Youd hardly believe
now what am going to tell. In Texas We
use rawhide straps, or thongs, for traces.
and in wet weather they do stretch amazing
ly. Why, often in damp weather, at home,
I've hitched up two horses and drove down
the hill from my house into the creek bot
tom for sled load of wood. l have loaded
the wood and many times driven back
home and unhitched the horses and the
| sled would not be in sight a#..
But how did you get the wood home
then p asked an inquisitiye bystander.
oh, just tied the ends of the traces to-
gether and threw them over a post, went
knocking about my work and waited till
the sun shone cut. Sometimes it would be
moro than two hours before that sled load
OF wood would get home, but you'd see her
crawling up the hill at last, gradually ap-
preaching as the rawhide traces shrunk up
into their proper lengths. Yes, Texas is .
| great county, you bet.

II you love me, tell moF',
Wait not TIL the summer glow
Falls In autumn's changeful light
Amber clouds and purple night
Walt not till the winter hours
Heap with snow drifts all the flowers,
Till the tide Of life runs low
II you love me, tell Inc 50.
II you love me, tell me so,
While the rivers dreamy flow
Holds the love enchanted hours

Ere the summers dreamy days
Fade in mystic, purple haze
