FOR THE JUICE

One day last week, somewhat dilapi-

cies cast anchor to windward in front of
the Standard Office door, and stated that
he would like to have some odd jobs of
work to do-that he was around calling
on business men generally, and didn't
want to slight anybody. Not happening
to have anything in his line at the time,
he was so informed.

you are wandering about this way, out of

I've been living on the husks long enough.
and want ten cents to get something more
substantial"
We informed our wandering friend that
the story of the Prodigal might do well
enough as illustrating trait of
human character, but as an example
worthy of emulation it is a fraud. We
believe that when stout young man vol
UNFAIRLY goes off and lives on the husks,
among strangers, the one who stays at
home and hoes, plows and shucks the
corn, is entitled to the corn-juice. This
may not be strict orthodoxy, but it is
reason. When the Prodigal comes home,
throws off his ragged coat, rolls up his
tattered sleeves, and goes to work with a
vim which imparts healty warmth and
glow to his cheeks, then we are in favor
of giving him every encouragement. But
when his efforts are only directed toward
coloring his nose, we think the other fell
