A Kansas yarn: "In Kansas barbers die of starvation. When you see a wagon on the road looking as if it were loaded with silk, it's only the old mans whiskers stacked up behind him; most of She streets are paved, the grains of corn being used for cobble- stones, while the cobs are hollow out and used for sewer pipes. The husk, when taken off whole and stood on end, makes a very nice tent for the children to play in. It sounds queer to have the feed man tell the driver to hitch up and take over dozen grains of horse feed to Jackson's livery stable. If it were not for the soft deep soil here, l don't see how they would harvest the corn as the stalks would grow as high as a Methodist church steeple. However, when the ears get too heavy their weight presses the stalk down in the ground on an aver age of 92 feet, thus bringing the ear near enough to the surface to be chop ped off with an ax."

got something bad to say
about his fellowman never
talks about any one who IS
worse than he is himself.
Remember it is always his
superior he is trying to pull
down, and instead of pulling
them down he builds them
up. If some men would just
stop and see what they are
doing they would get tired
some time. Talking about
a man behind his back only
helps him along among his
neighbors. There has been
many a fellow talked right
