Inck Better Than Brains.

Ex-Governor Upham Of Wisconsin,
who was once mourned for dead, told
a good story on himself at the Capitol
the other day.
Il was once interested in two lum-
Der deals" he said. L had offered i
valuable piece of property at 100000
and at the same time l was trying to
buy a tract of pine trees. While the
deals were pending l ran across a
gypsy fortune teller in the woods and
1 asked her to tell my fortune.
You will be very lucky in your
deals she said.
"'That's good l remarked.
YES continued the fortune teller,
your luck will beat your brains.'
Governor Upham says that the wom-
an spoke the truth. A few days later
the syndicate which held the option
Of 100000 upon the property he had
offered at that price decided not to &C
cept it. and it was not long before he
was able to sell the land for almost
double the Observation-Disclosures Post.
