OBJECTED TO UMBRELLAS.
Were Liable to Cause Trouble for the
Deacon When Milking.

Deacon When Milking.
Speaking about umbrellas" said
Butterwick, as he leaned back in his
comfortable armchair and watched the
crowd padding by in the rain, always
reminds me of a pleasant little episode
that occurred some years ago when 1
was free and careless farmer boy,
as the poet tells about, working for
good old Methodist deacon named
Boggs.
The deacon owned COW that had
an annoying habit of switching her tail
while being millSed, and as Boggs quite
naturally objected to being swatted
alongside of the head or having his hat
cuffed off every other second, he used
to serve an injunction on the tail-flour-
ishing by tying the offending appendix
fast to his bootstrap when he sat down
to milk. Then he would go ahead and
extract the tactical fluid in peace, while
the astonished cow would shake her
head and wonder why her switching ap-
paratus didn't work with it accustomed
freedom.
"One rainy day, when the deacon was
milking away as usual, with the cows
continuation anchored to his boot
strap, 1 thoughtlessly walked in front
of her with an open umbrella, and the
next instant the ancient but still able
bodied milk producer was plunging
wildly about the barnyard like a. brin-
die cyclone, while her owner, with his
head jammed through the bottom of
wooden milkpail and its contents dis
tributed partially over his person, was
o1n
on one foot and imploringly rhouting:
so, boss! So, boss!' ut every jump.
"It was as good as regular circus
performance while it lasted, and en-
joyed it immensely, or, at least, I would
have done but for thinking about
what Boggs might say when he got
loose.
"The boot strap finally broke, al
| lowing the deacon to roll in one direc-
| tion, while the cow plunged headiong
! through closed gate, smashing it into
kindling wood, and galloping off in an
| other. '.'
"It suddenly dawned on me that this
was a good time to take vacation, so
| started at once, taking my employers
| consent for granted. I stayed away
until Boggs had cooled up and built
| a new gate, and then sneaked back
one morning and went to work agaiG.
And all the bluff, good-hearted old
deacon ever said to me about the mat
| ter was: .... ...,.. r..'
"Wilyum Henry, I low ye're mighty
| good hand ter work, an don't knew
'zactly haw I'd manage ter git along
through hayin' an harvest withnut VI,
but if ye ever try ter kerry an umhrcl lie.
in front Of q COW ag in when I'm NJ; ,k..!:
her, I'll git up an break every tarnal
bone in yer good-fur-nothin carcass:
| Understand!'
| II understood. And not wishing to
interrupt the harvest gathering by get
ting crippled for life, always left my
parachute i'm the house during milking
time after that."-Detroit Free Press.

How Big Chimney Was Moved
Nearly 1000 Feet.

How a Big Chimney Was Moved
Nearly 1000 Feet.
There are two ways of moving a
chimney. One way. and that usually
followed, Is to tear it down carefully
and rebuild it in the desired place.
This utilizes only the brick and means
a great deal of labor The other meth
cd of moving a chimney is to handle
1t much as house would be handled
and to move it bodily and without tear
ing it down by putting ii on skids.
This latter method was followed by a
firm of contractors Of Bridgehalnpton,
n. Y, in moving chimney for the Ma
hanset Improvement Company at Ma
hanset, n. Y. The chimney is 50 feet
high and feet square at the base. II
weighs nearly 100 tons, and yet it was

grades without injury or accident. But
