Some Kansas farmer from Louisville, on
the Kansas Pacific read, writes to the Chicago
Iater- Ocean
Who sits on the fence and grins in glee,
When the farmer planting his corn he doth see,
And exutingly shouts. "Yah! Bully for me"'
The Hoppergrass.
Who squats on stump in the early morn
And watches The farmer blowing his corn,
And says, "'You'll gather that crop--in a horn!''
The Hoppergrass
Who, when the grain is 4 few inches high,
Marches into the field with his whole familie,
And gobbles it all in the wink of an eye?
The Hoppergrass ORD
Who makes the farmer cu5s and swear,
And gnash his teeth, and yank out his hair,
When he views his fields laid waste and bare
The Hoppergrass
Who, when the rain falls ana covers the ground,
Climbs up on chip and floats calmly around.
And out of all danger comes safe and sound
The iioppersrass.

him to be alone, and hence gave
him what every full-grown man
needs, viz, some one to argue with,
to love and cherish, and, If things
don't go right generally, 90 for-to
lay part Of the blame upon.
Did you ever contemplate the
poverty Of Adam when he took Eve
for better or worse? Only think of
it. He hadn't a hat to his head, a
coat to his back, pair of shoes to
his feet, nor "nary red cent" in his
trousers pocket. Eve brought no
dowry; she had nothing to bestow,
save her love and affection, and as
he was the only young fellow
around, it was he or nobody.
Equally as poor as her husband,
she came to him without bonnet or
shawl, calico gown, or even a pair
of slippers. Moses forgot in his
"reminiscences to give us any ac-
count of their wedding trip, but
from what we can gather in regard
to the wardrobes of that day, their
baggage would have proved no in
cumbrance-for. a very limited
amount sufiiced, and dressing to
please everybody was of no ac-
count, for there were none but
themselves to please. Doubtless
their whole outfit of travelling
dresses, waterproofs, busters, lunch
baskets and alIShe could have car
ried in the pocket Of his trousers.
They must have started housekeep-
ing, also, upon as small capital
as could be imagined. They hadn't,
as far as can be CLEANED from his
tory, a hair brush, fine tooth
comb, towel, or soap; no bitters,
soothing syrup, clothes wringers,
smoothing irons-no nothing.
Adam was afraid to invite his
wife to 60 on an excursion with him
through fear Of having to go down
deep into his trousers pockets for
the wherewithal to buy a suitable
outit-for the reason that he had
no pockets in his trousers; nor was
he bothered about the trunk checks,
nor did he swear at baggage-smash-
ers or brook the insolence of rail
road officials.
There was no good and sufficient
reason why they shouldn't have
been'sn amiable couple and had
good time generally. They washed
their own clothes, doubtless, by a
dive in the Euphrates, and there
being no clothcs-lines, their clothes
we're allowed to dry upon their
backs, and Adam didn't care a rush
whether his shirt-bosom was smooth
or not, and why should Eve bother
her head about it SO long as her
husband was suited.

Adam an a Bachelor.

Linn ra AoVeTuser
Imagine Adam in his loneliness,
the only human being in the wide,
wide world-a full-grown man at
his birth, with no one to grant him
a certificate thereof, or to furnish
him with the evidence that he was
ever born at all. He had never ex.
perienced any Of the perils of in
fancy and childhood, such as the
cutting of teeth, mumps, measles
and chieken-pox, without which no
young mans education is complete.
Adam is the only boy who never
had a grandmother to mend his
pants, knit his mittens and stand
between him and all harm. He
had never played the great and ex-
hilarating game of ball, never
had submitted to the indignity of
having a chip knocked from his
shoulder by another boy. No, he
had none of the essentials that 90
toward making up the average boy
of the present day. He found him
self born somehow, a full-grown
man, a bachelor, with no chum in
the whole universe with whom to
converse upon that intermlnable
topic, the weather; no one to 90
