A few years ago plain country doc

jewelry and wore a valuable diamond
stud in his shirt bosom were running
for the legislature in one of our coun-
ties. The race was close and hot. At
one speaking the doctor made the fol-
lowing fierce and dangerous thrust at
his opponent: Fellow citizens, don't
you want an honest man in the ]egis-
lature? OF course you do Now what
sort of man is my opponent? Why,
gentlemen, look at that magnificent
diamond he wears!N 1t is almost as big

be thousands-of dollars. At what val

taxation in his return to the state as
SCISSOR? Way, at the pitful sum OF
twenty dullars!' The crowd yelled
for the doctor. Three days later the
two met in joint debate. Again the
doctor took up his telling theme, and
held forth eloquently and passionately
in denunciation of dishonesty and dia-
monds and false assessments; and then
he again told of Mays false return to
the assessor. Look at that gorgeous
pin, gentlemen! My eyes can hardly
endure its dazzling rays. solomon in

Hold on there, doctor" said May.
"Do you mean to say this pin is worth
more than twenty dollars?'
Eyes, do-twenty times or fifty
times twenty dollars!"
Would you give twenty dollars for
it. doctor?"
'Of course | would"
We'll, you can have it for that"
''All rightr' said the doctor, and he
hurriedly counted out the money and
took the pin. Then May rose to speak.
and the crowd cheered him. He was
undoubtedly game" and honest lie
was willing ia take what he said the
pin was worth. He was elected.

the doctor and said: Doctor, don't
