Men are just like hogs, declares
a d;shcartencd editor, however dis
tasteful this may sound to the
hogs. When a hog gets an ear Ct
corn, every other hos will trot
along behind him and squeal and
whine and toady for q bite; but
just let the front hog get il a
tight, with his head fast in q
crack, and every son Of SOW will
Jump on him and tear him to
pieces. Just SO with men. AS
long as man is prosperous and
has money he can't keep friends
off with a baseball bat, The mo-
ment he is unfortunate and his
wealth is gone, he is not only
snubbed by his former alleged
friends, but they at once begin to
do him all the harm possible.

This Is True.

We presume there has never
been a eewspaper on this green
footstool that mentioned all the
local happenings. 1t is often
some one comes or goes that the
reporter does not gee. 1t may
happen that the same family will
thus be missed several times.
They get the impression the edi-
tors or reporters do not want to
mention them. Now this is gen
orally misteke. When it comes
to local news the reporters are al
ways anxious to find it, and it mat
ters little to them whether the
p.rson the item is about is per
sonal friend or not. They always
want the news.
