The Poor.

Moore was sitting in his Office one
afternoon, some years ago, when
farmer friend came in and said: Mr..
Moore, | like your paper, but times
are so hard that | cannot pa for it,
rs that so friend Jones? | am very
sorry TO hear that you are so poor; if
you are so hard run | will give you
my paper"
"0h, no! can't take it as a gift"
"Wcll, then, let's see how we can
fix it. Yon raise chickens, ! believer
ayes, few, but they don't bring
anything hardly
Don't they? Neither does my pa
per cost anything hardly. Now I
have proposition TO make to you.
will continue your paper, and when
You 90 home you may select from the
lot one chicken and cali her mine.
Take good care of her and bring me
the proceeds. whether in eggs or
and we will call it square"
"All right, Mr. Moore" and the poor
fellow chuckled at what he thought
capital bargain. He kept the contract
strictly, and at the end of the year
found that he had paid four prices for
his paper. He often tells the Joke him
self and says he never had the face to
say that he was too poor to take pa
per from that day.

"Mr. Hunnicutt's remarks seemed
to carry good deal of weight with
the audience. After speeches by a
number of others, the subject was
handed over to "the committee who
carried it out and "sot on it." In due

WHENEVER we have met Charles
'0'Conor in our walks he bad his eyes
cast down, very slightly swinging his
body, sometimes his necktie awry, his
general appearance suggestive OF men
tai abstraction. He wears his hat
like Greeley always did, tipped back
ward, giving room for the brain to
beat in his rounded, handsome FORE
head His chirography is as neat, as
precise, as strongly characteristic as
to details, the forming of a letter,
proper placing of paragraph, punctu-
alton, as poe's. When 0'Conor strikes
cut a word in his manuscript it is i'm
possible TO read it, owing to the care
with which obliteration was made.
He is almost intuitive in his Judgment
of people, and despiSes all shams, vnl.
garity and falsehood with an earnest
ness that leaves him apparently isola-
ted in IN atmosphere Of individuality
peculiarly his own The bound vol
umes of the cases IN which he has iig-
ured will form a small library Dan
