How scnator Evarts Found h Eating
Capacity of "a Rural Hired Man.

How Senator Evarts Found the Eating
Capacity Of n Rural Hired Man.
Up in Vermont a short time ago l
heard n story of William NJ. Evarts, the
senator. statesman and lawyer who daz-
zles New England every summer with
his agricultural ability as much as he
does New York and Washington la the
winter time by his political profundity.
One of the hangers on around his
Immense stock farm was Ivory Hall, a
big fellow who could eat more and do
less work than any other man ever
known in that region. Stories about
Ivory's wonderful capacity for food
came To the ears Of the senator, who
discrediting them made up his mind 10
put the rcputed champion to IA test.
He accordingly hired the gornandi2.
ing giant for a day, and sat him down
to the breakfast table preparatory TO
going aiield. Food enough for five
men was brought on. and Hall had no
trouble in clearing the board.
Now. Ivory" said the polysyllabic
orator. I'VE have II long way tn 90 to
the field, ami if you don't mind ]
should like 10 have you eat dinner at
this time. 50 you need not ON clear
back to the house"
''Jes ez leave take my dinner now ez
any time" was the willing response.
Again the table groaned under the load
of provisions, and again Ivory swept
all before him.
See here. Mr.. Hail." said the ad.
hiring statesman. ''our supper hour ISIS
o'clock. and ! want you to work later.
Do you think you could take your sup.
per now. too. so rs to work until sun.
down.
'Sartin." came the quick answer.
Supper and dinner and breakfast are
! all the same to ne. can allos eat
EN-"
For the third time fresh dishes were
produced. and great roasts and stews
forthcoming, Plate after plate of Yer
mont beef and cabbage and onions and
potatoes went down the greedy gul!et
of the hired man, and after these came
~puddings and pies and cakes enough Ia
stock a bake shop. Not n moment did
Ivory relax until every dish was clean.
IF you are ready now. Mr. Hail."
suggested the dumfounded orator. I'VE
will 90 to the field and I will show you
where To work"
Then Hall looked at his employer for
fully IA minute. rubbed his abdomen
lovingly ard said:
