The Good Fellow

This individual is a shrewd comb
nation of smiability and selfshDess.
The species may be found in every city
and town. He is a town outgrowth
generally. The Good Fellow Is friendly
and familiar, confidential and To-
qaacioas. The present condition o.
the country weighs heavily upon him
and the coming municipal election
engH ges his most serious consideration.
These responsibilities make it necls-
sary that he should spend n good deal
OF his time watching games of billiards,
standing on the corners { the streets
lookout for bibulousiy inclined nc
qUaiDtances, who may throw out tow
I sipe and take him into some beer port
hard by. Every night he is down
! town; every time on business of i'm
portspee. The number and variety of
! his excuses to his eredulous wife and
| suspicious mother in-law are legion.
! The Good Fellow never spends an
evening at home, unless he il sick ur
there is a rain storm. he wouldn't
miss dropping into his Main street
! haunts several times during the day
and after dark no, not for wealth
! itself
The Good Fellow is tremendous
ward politician. He is firmly OF the
laf n
of his ward, and can defeat any
candidate, If he once turns
/ himself loose. lie has been a
candidate several times himself, and
was once elected to small office, "in
Virginyah .befo the wah, sir.p That
small office ruined him. A taste
of official pap and election whisky
converted Il jolly dog into Good
Fellow, and when he hears the pack
OF Office seekers in fun cry, coming,
there is no holding him; he becomes ubi-
quitons, drinky, hard up, and intensely
political. The Good Fellows domestic
Biefidge is run by his wife, who is
generally q pretty, coDfiding, indus
trious, tidy little woman, with plenty
OF little Good Fellows, male aud
female, to whom she tievo:es her life
of hard work, seif-denial aud the
effort 10 make both ends meet with
the seanty funds provided by her
jovial, popular husband, who spends
As much on himself and 'sths boys''
as he does on his poorly clad, over
worked and Under-fed wife aud chit
