THE "COW LAM7

The following small story is told by
railroad man at the expense of Pat
sy Bowler, the principal legal lumin-
airy, and ALI. Mccarthy the Journals
tic star Of Hawthorne. It illustrates
the frequent il oplicabiEty of law
and the frailty Of human affairs in
general.
Mccarthy and Bowler were mem
bers of the last Legislature, and their
legislative talent was excised in Sc
curing the passageof an enactment,
which may be known as the @Cow
Law" providing for the punishment
Of owners of cows and other animals,
when such animals should be found
roaming the classic thoroughfares of
Hawthorne after P. M. Since Haw-
thorne had suffered much from the
nocturnal depreciation Of kline, the
promulgators of the %Cow Law" ex-
pected that it would yield them per
sonsl comfort and local gratitude.
at least, il not universal renown.
AS soon as the law went into effect
Mccarthy and Bowler began to pant
with thirsty desire for the appre-
hension Of an offending bovine. In
due time cow was captured tlagrante
delicto and was impounded. McCar
thy and Bowler then put on their war
paint and prepared to visit the law
upon the owner The COW was found
to belong to s. A. Laws. Laws is a
power in Hawthorn and his COW is
sacred, and the rampant legislators
were constrained to vote the law in
applicable to particular cow.
Mr.. Mccarthy has garden, and
one night ehort time after this Incl.
dent cow jumped over the fence
and ate it up-ate the bottles which
lined the walk, the tops of, the palings
and the mob on the door. She was
taken into custody just as she finished
the last bottle. In the morning Nc
earthly was red-headed, and he sailed
down to the pound with blood in his
eye. He found his compatriot, Bow
Ter, looking over the fence into the
eyes of the imprisoned kline with an
air of proprietorship that was unmis-
taxable. The cow was Bowler's and
ss the fact became apparent to Nc
Carthy he nearly fell iii faint. There
was nothing to do, however, but to
once more vote the law inapplicable.
AS Mccarthy has no COW, he is un-
decided whether to buy one and turn
her loose on Laws and Bowler, or Ic
move for the repeal of the law

When spriag was young md life was new,
Iovo WAS our only fiiond and guide.
Sweet were the bowers he led us through
And sweet our going side by side.
Then summer came, golden flood,
And still we followed hand IN hand.
Love was the music In our blood
b And love the glory Of the land.
sEich autumn foil, and winter drove
The fruity ripcness from the air.
But wrapped In warm, soft robes of love,
What rocked We II the world was bare7
So rotna again We como to spring,
Strong for another years emprise.
The birds arc whist to hear us sing,
Tho sun Is dazaled by our eyes.
For hand In hand, whero'er we go,
Earth under foot and heaven above,
Love Is the only life we know.
And every breath we breathe is love.

A False Maxim,

The loungers around the only store in
a little New England village were great
ly amused at something that happened
one warm afternoon. A tall, lanl1, bare
footed man came into the store with a
gallon pail filled with blackberries,
which he exchanged for three quarts Of
molasses
He carried stout hickory walking
stick in one hand, and when he departed
he put the pail on one end of the stick
and threw the stick across his shoulder.
He reached the platform IN front of the
store when shining new pin at his feet
caught his eye.
'See pin and pick 1t up,
All the day youll haSa good luck"
he drawled out and stopped over to pick
up the pin, when the nolasses crawled
out all over his back and neck
Strengthening himself hurriedly, the
man said:
"Waal, never thought much of that
air proverb, an l think less on it meow
than I ever did. "-Youth's Companion.
