The President ordered thirteen win
dows raised, the ice in the waiter pail
renewed and all the dogs turned out Of
the room, and then said
when you come across man who
has no vices nor weakness, drap him as
you would hot 'tater. De I,awd in
tended man to, be mo- or less weak,
wicked an wretched. 1t was not de
ideah to turn out perfect maH. II it
had been we should have had neither
religion; preachers nor de Bible. Airth
would have bin Heben an dar would
have bin no call to diesee t1l3s.
"Natur' sometimes turns out q pus-
son without guile, just as she turns out
one-eyed colts an three-legged calves.
Sich pussons Soon become known as
either fools or lunaties. Il am agin
Natur's way to bring men into dis
world wild an angels wing half grown.
An it am leetle suspicious to find q
two-good man. When you diskiver a
human bein' who isn't lame somewhar'
who nebber deceives cheats, lies, en-
vies, covets-who goes about satisfied
wild de weather, craps an 'himself-who
won't bet, drink, go to de circus or look
upon a hoss race, You have foun' q man
to let alone. He am to good. Natur'
made him fur an angel and forgot to
put him in Heben.
"I like man whe has weaknesses an
sins, Den know dat he am feller-
mortal who was put on arith to be saved
like a man who has had sickness,
heartaches an grievous trouble. Den
/ am sartin of man who has sympathy.
like man who has bin foolish nun to
get drunk an strong 'nnff to kick do
temptashum ober seben-rail fence.
Den you know whaf' to find him. He
has bin dar an knows, what fool he
was. like man who has bin liar,
an who hisn't entirely recovered from
de injury. Den / know how TO trade
hosses wild him, am no what to be-
lieve whepshe tells me dat he has bin
fishin' If goody-goOd nabbur borrys
my spade doan' know when 1t cum
home, nor how much of it will be left.
If thief takes it for loan l am pretty
sartin to rekiver it in day or two an
in good condishum." -T b.
"When man tells me dat he has be-

go right home an put an extra paddock
on myl kitchen doAh. When man
sheds tears ober de condishum of de
far-off heather, de heathen at home had
better be keerful how dey lend him
money. sDenman who's conscience
won't let him go to place Of amuse-
ment has bin known to elope wild an
other mans wife. De man whe can't
remember dat he eber used an cath or
tole a lie has bin followed across dc
ocean an arrested fur robbih' widders
an orphans. De man who allus wars q
smile am now sarvin' his third term in
State Prison. ,,.....
ssLet me say to you in sumin' up dal
de man who sins an knows 1t an wants
to do better, am sooner to be trusted
dan de man who neber aims an feels
dat he am good 'nuff. b II you tie to Q
man. let it be man who feels dat hs
am. weak an sinful. Ysu.will den hay,
apardner who am not . freak of Natnrf
Let US now embarrass ourselves wild,
regular order Of bizness." ci hstseY
