How a Farmer Was Done
For"

y good old Wethersfeld farmer,
peStered by the lack of help, told his
son to slip down to New York and
hire a man. But before he started
he cautioned him to look out and
not get loaded down with a dead
beat, adding: There are sharpers
there who will beat you if you give
them half a chance. You can tell
one OF them air beats as far as you
can see him. Hire some good, lusty
young 1eLOW-a greenhOrn if you
can-anyOne not a dead beat" In a
couple Of days the new man was
at work on the farm, and with a
little practice would have broken in
all right, but the old farmer,
who was fTetful and impatient, dis
liked his ways and so he shipped
him. The young man went to a
neighboring place and hired out and
the old man started for Gotham
himself to get the right kind of a
hired man. He came back with
one last Thursday, stopping at Hart
ford to buy him some new clothes,
the price Of which was to
be deducted from his wages.
The new help wanted some
pretty good clothes and quoted the
old farmer by telling him he could
take the price cut Of the earliest
earnings. Friday morning he set
him to work in the garden in the
rear Of his barn. In about an hour
the old farmer went out to see how
he was getting along. lie found
him lying on some hay on the barn
floor. "What is the natter" said
the farmer.
''I'm feeling bad - don't know
what ais me"
'Do you ever drink" asked the
farmer.
eyes, an s'poSe that's what's the
matter. I've been drinking pretty
hard of late"
why didn't you let me know it."
said the farmer, land l would have
fixed you up Sunthing. I'm a temp
rance man, though l always have
a drop in the house for medicine"
The old farmer went in and
mace rum punch and
gave 1t to the fellow. This
had an inspiring effect, and the
hired man said he felt better and
started for the house. In a few
minutes he came out dressed up in
the new suit of clothes and started
down the road to MiddetOWn, much
to the old farmers surprise.
Where are you going?" sang out
the farmer.
ITO New YOrruk" was the prompt
as the pedestrian started off
at Ave mile gait.
The old farmers feelings may be
better imagined than described, as
he saw $50 worth of his clothes on
the road to New York, but at this
moment his son came along and, |
with twinkle in his starboard eve,
quietly said: where's the hired
