ACKNOWLEDGED THE CORN
A Popular Expression That Had Its
Origin In Congress.

A Popular Expression That Had Its
Origin In Congress.
The following is the origin of II ac-
knowledge the corn,' which is used in
the sense of admitting failure or hav-
ing been outwitted: In 1928 Andrew
Stewart was in congress discussing the
principles of protection and said in the
course of his remarks that Ohio. Ken
lucky and Indiana sent their hay
stacks, cornfelds and fodder to New
York and Philadelphia markets to sell.
Charles A. Wyckliffe jumped up and
said: why, that is absurd, Mr.. Speak
er. l call the gentleman to order. He
is stating an absurdity. We never send
haystacks or cornfields to New York
or Philadelphia"
"Well, what do you send" asked
Stewart
1--WE send" replied Wyckcliffe,
''horses. cattle, hogs and mules"
'Well," continued Stewart, what
makes your horses, cattle, hogs and
mules? You feed 800 worth of hay to
a horse; you get on top of your hay
stack and ride off to market. How
about your cattle? You make every one
carry $50 worth of hay or grass to an
eastern market. You send hog worth
$40 to market. How much corn at 33
cents a bushel does it take to fatten it?
Why, thirty bushels. Then you put
thirty bushels of corn into the shape Of
hog and make it walk to an eastern
market"
Before Stewart could proceed further
WyckIiffe arose and said, MIR. Speak
er, l acknowledge the corn"

Reasons For Pride.

annoyed by tactless English woman
who undertook to banter her and who
said:
II take it for granted that you have
no coats of arms in your new coun-

"Of course no American family could
have one unless it was borrowed from
English ancestry" replied the former
American.
"For instance, has your family any
especial cause for pride over your
grandfather" persisted this particu-
larly tactless female cad

THOROUGHLY CHINESE.

Canton In One of the Oldest Cities
In the World.
Canton, the capital of the province
Of Kwangtung, has population Of
about 100000 and is one of the oldest
cities in the world, and until the port
of Hongkong was opened it was the
export city of the empire Its old
walls and Notifications, with their old
guns, are all now obsolete and entirely
neglected, remaining only as monu-
ments of departed ages They have
never been of service except as warn
ing of danger to an invading foe and
no doubt had the desired effect until
the last half century.
Canton is said to be absolutely and
thoroughly Chinese, and there is no
other city in the empire that is more SO.
There it exists today, with its narrow
streets, its old temples. its wealth, its
extreme poverty and its peculiarly
constructed buildings, and when one
considers the habits and customs of it's
people and their achievements in the
arts so characteristic of that country,
its ancient history so Respondent cen

The smallest fee ever taken by an
English counsel was sixpence that fee
having on one occasion been taken by
the late Sir John Holker Barristers'
fees were in olden times much less
than those now paid An entry occurs
In the churchwardens' accounts of st.
Margaret's, Westminster, for 1915,
showing that fee of 3s 3d., with
fourpence for his dinner, was. paid to
Robert Flypott, counsel, learned in the
law, for his advice.
In Mares GLOSSARY" a barrister's
fee was stated to be an angel, or 10
shillings. These are somewhat different
figures from the 600 guineas paid to
Sir Charles Russell number of years
ago at the Leeds assizes for less than
three hours work, or at the rate Of
over guineas a minute.-London Tit

WHAT HE THOUGHT OF HIM
A Postal Card Serial Story and q
Lost Suit For SANDER.

Postal Card Serial Story and q
Lost Suit For SANDER.
A certain Kansas man, so the story
goes, wanted to tell a neighbor what
he thought of him without laying him
self open to a suit for damages. So he
hit on the plan of sending him each
day postal card with only one word
written on it in a large hand, in addi-
ton to the date obscurely tucked away
in q corner.
The person receiving the cards rec
ognized the handwriting and, suspect
ing something, kept them until they
stopped coming, when he read them
consecutively in the order of their re-
ception. What he read was, "Ridicu-
lous old Bill Jones is the meanest cuss
in town." and he at once instituted a
suit for SANDER against the sender
The latters lawyer, however, called
attention to the fact that the postal
card containing Ridiculous though
mailed first, was dated the day after
the date of the card having the word
town." Moreover, a careful inspection
would show that after the word ri
diculous' was an exclamation point,
and after the word ''town" was an in
terrogation mark, so that the series Of
postal cards might be made to read:
"Old Bill is the meanest cuss in town?
Ridiculousr' He claimed, therefore,
that instead of slandering the plaintiff
his client had defended him from SLAM
der, and this plea was sustained by the
court
But, all the same, everybody in town
insisted that the first reading of the
cards was the correct one, so that the
writer attained his object.
