''In two months he was able to sit
up in bed, and in another month he
could walk across the room. But he
never in all that time spoke a word.
His breathing apparatus was very
tender and sore, and he didn't feel
like using 1t any more than he had to.
But in another six months the whole
business was healed sound and we'll,
and he began to make an effort TO
speak. 1t wasn't q success.
He could only squeal. Every effort
to utter word resulted only in the
language hog uses when 1t tries to
express its desire for grub. The
windpipe wasn't built for talking hu-
man language, and it wouldn't do it.
But the fellow was full Of pluck, al
though part OF 1t was hogs pluck, and
he determined to talk or die. He
knew he had human glottis and lar.
ynx and all the other apparatus, and
he kept trying until he got SO he
could speak few syllables, but 1t was
hard work and slow business.
'The fellow lived out in the sub.
urbs, and after he had become able to
walk about and take care Of himself
the doctors let him go homo. The
whole operation was kept a secret
from his friends, and although they
knew that he had been treated and
was great deal better, no one out
side of two or three of the most init.
mate friends OF the doctors knew
that he was wearing pigs lung. He
had been considerable of a singer be-
fore he was taken sick, and in fact
had led the singing In church. He
was great on some OF the revival
songs. That's what got him into
trouble and gave the whole thing
away. He went out fora walk one
Sunday and entered a church where
service was just beginning. The
usher seated him about the middle Of
the church, and he hadn't more than
sat down when the choir began sing
ing, Come, Thou Fount OF every
Blessing 1t was the first time that
he had been in church for more than
a year, and the song reused him 40
much that he couldn't resist the de.
sire to join in the chorus. And he
did join in with u vengeance. II you
ever heard healthy porker fast In a
rail fence you can form some idea Of
the kind Of noise he made. The min.
lister turned pale, the soprano tainted
and the rest of the choir stopped
still, and he performed q solo, the
like of which was never heard In q
church before. Everybody turned
and stared at him, and the usher
came and marched him out. BY that
time he was so excited that he did not
know what he was about, and kept up
a continual squealing as he tried ia
talk and explain matters. Just then
a policeman came along and walked
him of, but before they got to the
station one of the doctors happened
to be passing by in a buggy and per-
suaded the officer to let him go. He
is getting so he can talk now without
squealing, except when he gets excit
ed, but when he gets to church h,
stops his mouth with handkerchief
while the singing is going on"
"What about the pig ?" asked 4
New York drummer. ibid it liv,

"Hardly. 1t couldn't get alon(

made about two hundred pounds o.
