Some months ago farmer who lived
very few miles from town, having a
good wife and nice family, sold his pro-
perty for something about eleven thous-
and dollars cash. Then little later
agreed to purchase quarter section, on
which, it is reported, he made no pay
ment. Moved his wife and family on to
it, and later still forsook them, taking all
the money proceeds of his sale. The
last heard of him he was met by one of
his former neighbors in Minneapolis In
company with some strange woman, APP
parently IN 10 way ashamed of his heart
less conduct toward his family. It's hard
to conceive how dog, or hog, could
descend to lower depths of unflial or
unfatherly depravity, but undoubtedly
there are some who pose as men, and
walk on their hind legs, deceiving the
very elect, WHO should have pendulous
ears and caudal then. be
forced to go on all fours, and associate
with their own kind.
Don't Start Wrong.
