6 'Pants.'' -

A boy in the Wichita schools, Cali
fornia, was suspended for reading
the following essay on ''pauts:"
Pants are made for men, and not
men for pants. Women are made
for men, and not pants. When a
man pants for a woman and woman
pants for a man, they are a pair OF
pants. Such pants don't last. Pants
are like molasses-they are thinner
in hot weather and thicker in cold.
The man in the moon changes his
pants during an eclipse. Don't 60
to the pantry for pents-you may be
mistaken. Men are often pistaken
in pants. Such mistakes make
breaches of promise. There has been
much discussion as to whether ''pants>'
were singular or plural. Seems to
me when men wear pants they are
plural, ard when they don't wear eny
they are singular. Men get on a
tear in their pants, and it is all hight:
but when the pants get on tear, it
is all wrong.
The Lexington dispatch. [volume] (Lexington, South Carolina) 1870-1917, 1899-02-22
Getting Out Of a Difficulty.

A young shorthand writer was
once told to report a speech by Sir
John Macdonald. Now it happened
that the Canadian premier had come
on to the house from dinner party,
and his speech in matter and form
Was of a decidedly post-prandial
character.
The youthful reporter, however,
could not believe it possible that Sir
John should want editing, and took
down every word. His editor, on
seeing the copy, told him it would
not do, and as it was not wanted for
the next morning, he was advised to
60 see Sir John and get him to cor
rect it.
The reporter, on being shown in,
found Sir John, as usual, exceedingly
affable.
Having explained the Object Of his
visit, the reporter was desired to read
his notes aloud. Tnis he did, while
Sir John lay on sofa listening with
face of extreme solemnity to his
own incoherenties and corr> ting
them as occasion required.
When the notes were finished the
premier rose, laid his hand on the
young mans shoulder, and began in
the most fatberly OF tones, Il see ex-
aclly what has happened. Now, my
dear young friend, I am an old man
and you are young one, and you
will not mind if I give you word Of
advice as to the practice Of your pro
fessiou. My advice is this: Never
attempt to report speech unless
you are perfectly sure that you are
sober
With this Sir John bowed out hSa
astonished visitor.

however, and Chamberlains Cough

Although Gov. Eilerbe has been
inaugurated for his second term only
about month the politicians are al
ready beginning to train their candl-
dates for the race two years hence.
Col. Willie Jones is generally ac-
cepted to be a candidate for the
place. He is popular throughout
the State and no doubt make a
strong candidate. There is talk OF
Congressman Latimer entering the
race, but has not assumed definite
shape.
Then it is said that Senators Shep-
pard and Henderson may take part
IN the contest and it may be that
Lieutenant Gov. McSweeney will try
his luck With the rest. These are
the gentlemen talked of most in con-
nection with the office, but the elec'
ton is a long time off and many
changes may occurr before then.
