A worthy farmer, full Of fun, once
overreached jeweler in some transac-
ton. The ieweler complained of the
way he had been treated
"weel, I'll tell we whit I'll dae wi ye,"
said the farmer, "rll sell We a. my
levin stock at half Groom n head. an
I'll let We come and coont them yersel'."
The bargain was struck. The day
was appointed to count and hand over
the stock. The grasping jeweler and his
assistants in due course arrived at the
farm. They totaled up horses, cattle,
sheep, hogs, dogs, etc. The jeweler then
asked when he would remove the stock.
"Bide a wee, bide vice." said the
farmer; Eye havena seen them a yet"
He then led the party close up to a
dozen bee hives, overturned one of the
hives with his foot, and amid the yells
of the flying party the farmer was heard
shouting:

Cowboy and spook.

stories, but one which reached the
eals of a reporter the other evening

The Leader can vouch for the relin-
bility of all the persons mentioned,
except the ghost itself. The narra-
tive runs in this wise:
Joe Healey, a rollicking cowboy
who rides the range for the Carlisle
Cattle Company, was engaged in
transferring bunch of horses from
one ranch on the Sweetwater to an
other and passed the historical In
dependence rock after nightfall.
When near the noted landmark Joe
was nearly scared out of his wits and
his charges almost stampeded 10y the
appearance of a CHASTITY apparation
across the trail. The figure was that
of man and white in color. The
outlines were clearly defined hut the
cowboy is unable to describe the cos
tune of the unearthly tramp.

Flies are sometimes regarded as
furnishing representations of the

where they were found in abundance.
Although sacred insect among
the Egyptians, the beetle receives
but little notice in folk lore. 1t is I'M

In Germany it is said to indicate
good luck to have "A spider spring his

prosecutions of those who follow the
teachings Of Scripture did not stop
with the Dark Ages, but have been
handed down to this wicked and per.
verse generation. Evidently, there is
something wrong somewhere, when
such things are done in the courts of d
land which calls itself Christian, and
which gives money by the million dol
lars in order that the inhabitants of the
Cannlbal Islands may not be obliged to
go to bed on wasbdays.
What that something is, brethren,
and where that something is located,
you are invited to look into your hearts
TO inquire. This preacher does not pre-
tend TO do your thinking. But it is the
essence OF professionalism that everybody
IS entitled to hold his own religious be-
lief; which seems to mean, that If any
man prefers the elbow grease OF the
elders to castor oil, he has right 10
his choice, but that If any man in
Brooklyn substitutes the laying on of
hands for the cheerful mustard plaster,
when anybody's life but his own is in
danger, he is more than likely to land
IN Jail. The lesson is obvious, brethren;
be sure You are right. and then don't go
