Executed His Orders.

Al Washington, the other day. II was
raining hard and the street cars were
crowded with passengers more or less
bedraggled. Among them was Gen.
Joe Wheeler. Next to him was a wo-
man wearing "A macintosh, who rose
to get out at Fourteenth and F. streets.
Gen. Wheeler noticed an umbrella
leaning against the car seat. He
gra bbed the umbrella and ran after
the woman, caught her at the door,
and said; Pardon me, madam. but you
left your umbrella" The woman
looked puzzled. but took the umbrella
Gen. Wheeler resumed his seat. Then
woman on the other side OF him gave
little scream. and said why, you
nasty old man, YOU gave that woman
my umbrella. Gen. Wheeler apolo-
gized, but the woman said. Now, you
just get right off the car and get Il for
me. or I'll notify the police. Meekly

Prof. Thomas F. Shaw, writing In the
Breeders Gazette, asks how many more
years must come and go before the fact
is recognized that "the sheep had a golden
hoof2"
They gather their own food-twelve
months in the year in Tennessee-and
only must be fed when the ground is
covered with snow They do not have
to be carefully MIXED twice a day for
nine or ten months In the year They
never have SPAWN, ganders, ringbone,
etc, and do not run against barb wire
fences and cut themselves so they are of
little use for the rest OF their days. Dis
eases to which they are subject can be
kept at bay by use OF the dipping vat
once or twice a year.
They are more hardy than the steer,
They enrich a rundown farm and make Il
grow good crops. They are scavengers
par excellence and the most profitable
''crop' on the farm.
Why not more OF them. we almost said
"some" of them, In Tennessee. the best
sheep state in the Union? The answer Is
one word. dog.-Nashville American.

a mack of His Own,

When the father kept a little hotel not
far from the Michigan Central depot he
told his troubles to several of his in
innate friends.
THAT boy OF mine Is a perfect lunk-
head" he candidly admitted. "IIc don't
know how to carry in wood. and when il
comes to 'rithmetic he don't know the diff
ference between multiplication and sub.
traction. l don't believe he'll ever cut
much of figure. less it's on the haY
scales, but I'm going to do my duty by
him, and take him out on farm and see
IL 1 can't put some gimp into him
A few years later one OF these conf
Dental friends found the father running
an old-fashioned tavern not far from Kal-
amazoo.
"Hello"' was the greeting. Last time
I saw you, you were going to take your
boy into the country to put some gimp
into him"
'That's right. Well, farmin' didn't put
any gimp into the boy and 1t took all
the gimp out OF me and ma. One day
when 1t was bout 30 In the shade, and
was drenched from chasin' the hogs out
of the oats. long came a fellow that
wanted to trade this hotel for FARM
and the dicker didn't take five minutes"
"And the boy?"
That's the curiousest thing about it.
He coaxed his ma TO give him the money
to buy a colt He didn't do nothu' but
work on that colt. At the fair he cleaned
out everything, and the boy sold for 5000
more than he paid. He went to a sale
in Kentucky and brought home the
