Like many another famous man both
before his time and since, Talleyrand
exhibited, at least in early life, n great
reluctance to settling with his credit
ors. When he was appointed bishop Of
Autun by Louis NVI., he considered Il
fine new coach to be necessary to the
proper maintenance of the dignity of
that office. Accordingly a coach was
ordered and delivered, but not paid for.
Some time after, as the newly appoint
ed bishop was about to enter his coach,
he noticed a strange man standing near
who bowed continually until the coach
was driven away. This occurred for
several days until at length Talley-
rand, addressing the stranger said:
well, my good man, who are you?"
81 am your coachmaker. my lord"
replied the stranger.
"Ah," said Talleyrand, "you are my
coachmaker! And what do you want,
my coachmaker?"
81 want to be paid, my lord"
"Ah, you are my coachmaker, and
you want to be paid? You shall be
paid, my coachmaker."
But when. my lord?"
'Hum," said Talleyrand, settling
himself comfortably among the cush-
ions of his new coach and cying his
coachmaker severely, you are very
inOuiSitiye"

Two Ways of Doing Work.

Asa business, farming is just what

He can choose life of drudgery and
privation or one of comfor. and plenty
Although there is enough work on q
farm to please the most industriously
inclined, in order to succeed man
physically lazy may be the better farm
er of the two. In fact some of the
best farmers we ever knew were SO
pesky lazy that they were continually
planning how to avoid fatigue by pro-
curing labor saving implements and de-
vices that would minimize physical
exertion and studying short routes to
results. Some of our worst farmers
are up before the cock crows, make
two or three trips to and from well
a hundred yards away, then climb a
ten rail fence to the horse lot, shuck
the corn for the team, takea plow line
In hand and go out in the field to the
fodder stack and return with the nee

tried bacon and black coffee, hook a
mule to a single plow and break an en-

saving devices are desreputable apolo-
gies for laziness, and he hates lazy

posed to hate satan. The lazy man. if

Wood and water will be at hand with
out the necessity of going out of doors
to get either. His barns and stables
will be similarly planned and built.
Therefore he does not have to get up
so early or hustle SO fast. Then in
stead af lndustriously stumbling over
the clods in guiding and following the
plow, he bitches fat team to double
disc plow, takes his position on the
spring seat, gathers up the reins and
lazily plows back and forth until he
has plowed two or three times as much
as his Industrious neighbor knocks off
in day, or recreates himself with some
light or needed exercise about the gar
den, orchard or elsewhere. All through
the seasons operations the same differ
ence prevails one laboring assid-
ously and accomplishing little-the
doing twice as much work with his
head as he does with his hanls and &C
complishes much. 1t is rare combin-
alton if the farmer happens to be in
with both head and hands,
and his success is assured in all he un-
dertakes. But if the mind Is clear and
active he will good substitute for the
industry he may lack. No amount of
industry can ever make sue
cess without the active aid of the brain
that tn inketh.

! George Washington's false teeth,
which We're supposed to have been
made of ivory, are giving a certain
class of freak historians about as much

Many times a year for several wears
this Institution has been called upon TO
produce these mysterious teeth for the
inspection of persons who insist that
they are here.
Our matter of fact answer to these
inquiries that Washington had no false
teeth' or at least If he did, that they
are not in the possession of the mu.
scum, seems only to stimulate the in.
quiring mind to protest our statement
They proceed to give us authentic ac.
counts of these teeth and always con-
elude with expressing the belief that
they must be in the museum some.
where.
Where or how the idea that Wash.
ington had false teeth originated is an
unsolved mystery. That it is firmly be.
lieved by many is certainly fact.
There seems to be no authentic record
OF the Father of His Country possess
ing ivory teeth, and by study of the
bust we have of him, which was made
but few years before his death, there
is no Indication of an indentation along
the line of the gums such as can be
noticed In persons who have had their
teeth drawn, even though they wear
artificial ones. However, we will con-
tinue to answer the same question in
the same way probably many times in
the future"
According to some biocraphers
Washington lost his teeth during his
service as commander in chief of the
Continental army and had a set of
ivory ones made. These teeth. IT is
also stated, gave him much trouble be.
