He Got the votes.

A congressman is thus quoted by the

s'The first race I ever made for con-
gress resulted in my defeat by less than
so majority, and if one of my friends
had not been too Jealous would have
been elected. There was precinct
where I expected to receive 100 votes
and feared there would be some fraud
in the precinct that would injure me,
so got an old man who had never par
ticipated III politics. but who had al
most paramount influence in the dis
trict, to take charge of my interests
there, instrGcting him to see that every
friend of mine voted and that the votes
were counted.
"When the returns came in, had
not received single vote in that pre-
cinct, and the next day bulky envel-
ope was handed me containing 1870 bal
lots. together with letter from the
man had left in charge saying that he
had seen every friend of mine and taken
up their ballots so that none would be
missed, and as he wouldn't trust the
judges of elections he had sent them to
me himself so l would be sure to get
them. Since then | have seen to it that
men in charge of my interests were not
only honest, but knew something about

The Art of Doing Nothing.

One mark of the modern man is his
inability to idle. When he has to work
for his living, he will grumble lavishly,
telling you that leisure is what he
longs for; that an idle life is his unat-
tainabie ideal But let him come into
a fortune and you will see. Does he use
his new affiuence in the only reasonable
way, making soft places for himself
wherein he can idle happily? Not he; he
runs to and fro about the city like the
Scripture dog, risking the portion of
goods that has come to him among the
outside brokers, or he tries the muscles
ers himself, bound hand and foot. to
the tyranny of the racing stables, or he
becomes a philanthropist. or throws his
unconquerable energy into amateur
photography.
To a dweller in the sheepfolds the
question comes urgent, insistent When
does man come into this his birthright
of antlike industry? When does this
inability to idle grow ON him? In the
time of his lambhood he will do any
thing. everything, to insure his doing
nothing. To attain this object he will
spare no patent pains, no anxious
thought. He will achieve his end ever
in stprep. with the eye of the shep
herd upon him, and it will be perceived
that to do nothing when talking is i'm
possible and staring about, an expensive
luxury, requires a talent amounting al
most to genius. Pail Mall Gazette.
