Pas Rural Holiday.

Said the bad boy TO the grocery man:
You see one of the deacons of our
church lives out on a farm, and all his
folks were going away to spend the day
and he had todO all the chores. so he
invited pa and ma to come out TO the
farm and have "A nice, quiet time. and
they went.
There is nothing pa likes better
than to go out on a farm and pretend
he knows everything. When the
farmer got pa and ma out there he set
them to work, and ma shelled peas
while pa went to dig potatoes for din
ner. | think it was mean for the dea
con to send pa out into the cOrnlield to
dig potatoes and after he had dug up a
whole ROY of ORR without finding any
potatoes he set the dog on pa, and freed
him IN an apple tree near the bee hives,
AID then go and visit with ma and leave
pa in the tree with the dog barking at
him, Pa said he never knew how mean
a deacon could be until he had sat on
a limb of that app'etree all the after
noon
"About the time to do chores the far
mer came and found pa and called the
dog off. and pacame down, and then the
farmer played the meanest trick of all.
He said city people didn't know how to
milk cows, and pa said he wished he
had as many dollars as he knew how
to milk COWS. He said his speciality was
milking kicking cows, and the deacon
gave pa a Tin pail and a milking-stool
and let down the bars and pointed out
to pa the worst COW on the place.
"Pa knew his reputation was at stake
and he went up to the COW and punched
it ID the flank and sad, Hist, confound
you Well, the COW wasn't that kind
hut a hlsting bull. and pa knew it was a
bull as Oon as he see it put down its
head and below, and pa dropped the
pail and started for the bars, and the
bull after him.
81 don't think it was right in ma to
bet two shillings with the farmer that
pa would get to the bars before the bull
did. though she won the bet. Pa said
