How Legislator Got Ria Of . Lot
Of Agricultural Reports.
An ex.member Of the Legislature had
q very large stock Of State agricultural
reports In good.sixed volumes piled up
on Superior street. and his associates
IN the profession who occupy the same
apartment considered the books good
deal Of an eyesore. The ex.member

Of the room, having been elected to a
highly honorable position. and so. In
his absence. one Of the associates deter.
mined to dispose Of the books In the
simplest manner known, aside from to.

ed to give them away.
Even that method he was afraid
might be little difficult 70 cnrry out,
but he went to a neighbOr!ng tenant,
who is clever with the marking brush,
and said:

The lawyer was pleased with this
work OF art. He loaded the office boy
with volumes, and put the card on top.
Then the boy went down the stairs and
laid the books along the curb with the
card leaning against the pile. As he
started upstairs for another load, he
noticed that IA small crowd was gather
