A HEN WANTED
The Government Has
Good Position for
Her.

Since civil service reform has
become an old story and what was
once a novel system has worked
so smoothly that it no longer chal-
lenges reluctant attention, some
needless and inconsequential peo-
ple have forgotten that it was ever
new, and there is danger of gen
Grafton growing up which will give
so little credit to the enlightened
citizens of to-day as to suppose
that, as it is so it always was, or
else, in the words of Topsy, that
it "jest grewed."
Fortunately, something is about
to take place that may avert this
calmity. An ancient naturalist de-
scribed man as "a two legged
animal without feathers" But it
is apparently conceivable that a
two-lcgged animal with feathers
may enter the service. The United
States geological survey is in
need of hen. She must be II
gOodly hen, devoted, industrious,
virtuous. The ordinary, frivolous,
barnyard fowl of commerce., with
no special pedigree and not much
self-respect, will not do at all. She
must be seriously concerned with
the chief end of hen life; and she
must give proof on due eXamina-
ton by officers of the civil service
commission that she thoroughly
knows her business. If such a hen
applies she will be guaranteed an
excellent position, with short
hours and plenty of consideration.
But she must produce one egg Il
day and must be punctual as to
Its delivery. Ii she can do this she
will rank beyond many of the old
geniuses who rarely evolve an O.
riginal thought that is presentable
in twenty-fom hours.
The diurnal egg is required in
order to supply albumen for the
geological survey to be used in
'photo-lithography. Any we'll
educated hen, with properly devel-
oped taste, should feel proud to be
associated with so imposing a
compound word as that, and of
the honor, too, of being dis
tinctively mentioned in official re-
ports, which will be turned out in
fat black binding with gilt letter
ing by the government printer.
On the whole, the appointment is
well worth trying for, on the part
of the elite of our hen population.

Congressman Steele of Indiana
says that the mcanest thing he even
heard said of anybody in Congress
was Speaker Reeds remark about
Deliver of Iowa. The Maine man
and some others were talking about
candidates for Vice President, and
Reed said: And there's Deliver,
too. Now, Deliver is a Vice-Pres-
idential impossibility." About on
Il par with this was ex-senator
