a wise old Gobb1er.

A farmer living in Hartford county
has for many years very often invited
the preachers Of Sunday to take din
ner with him, and, of course, rs all
preachers are very fond Of fowls, his
wife would have some killed and pre-
pared for dinner. And, strange to say,
but nevertheless true. all his old COB
blers and roosters by some means
could tell preacher by his looks, AMI
just as soon as a preacher drove up to
the house the old gobblers and roosters
would call Ill their families to hide I'M
der the big barn and stay there until
the preachers left. But upon one oc-
casion two preachers drove up, and no
turkeys or chickens could be found
anywhere. But after dinner one Of the
preachers left and the old rooster came
out and Topped his wings and told his
family that the preachers were gone,
but the old gobbler was not satisfied
and poked his head out and said,
Doubtful. doubtful, doubtful"
That was the first time that l ever
knew that any Of the dumb creation
could count. as the old gobbler was
certain that two preachers had driven
to the house.-Forest and Stream.

naa Methods of Washing.

The hardest worked washerwomen in
the world are the Koreans. They have
to wash about q dozen dresses for their
husbands, and inasmuch as every man
wears pantaloons or drawers SC Daggy
that they come UP to his neck like
those Of clown, they have plenty to
do. The washing is usually done In
cold water and often in running
streams. The clothes are pounded with
paddles until they shine like shirt
front fresh from Il Chinese laundry.
The Chinese rip their garments apart
for every washing, and they iron their
clothes by spreading them on a fiat
board and leaning this up against the
house to dry. The sun takes the wrin-
kles out of dry clothes, and some Of
them have quite luster.
The japanese woman does her wash
ing out Of doors. Her washtub is not
more than six inches high and is about
as big around as the average dishpan.
She sometimes uses Japanese soap,
which is full Of grease, and works
away with her bare feet. The Chinese
girls do their washing in much the
same way.-Kansas City Journal.

An Age Of Falsehood.

ATLANTA, Ca, July 15.-Bishop
Morrison spoke from the pulpit Of the
First Methodist church to-day to the
Frecmasons of Atlanta. In the course
of his sermon the bishop said: cit
has seemed to me of late that the pres
ent is an age Of insincerity, an age OF
falschood and the status Of society
and of our business life will bear me
out. Thousands Of men will not tell
the truth unless they know they can
make something by it. The moral de-
cay Of the present age is due to this
disregard for truth. Lies are put up
in packages, sent out in barrels and
hung on hooks. Men are justifying
themselves with the fact that their
acts arc common.
''That embalmed beef sent to Cuba
is no worse than we get to-day. l be-
lieve that the large death list in this
country which is daily growing great
er. is due directly to the dishonest
adulterations of the food which goes
in the homes of our country. The
whole commercial world is honeycomb-
ed with untruthfulness, and the inor-
dinate love of money which has taken
hold of our people is at the bottom
of it.
"There arc men in Atlanta to-day
who have been running to money SO
long that while their wealth is five
times as great as formerly their repu-
tation and their influence for good III
the community is more than five times
as small as it was before.
