Preferred Hogs to Land.

They tell a good one on a prominent
real estate man of Waurika. Some
time ago he carried a prospector over
on Beaver creek to show him a certain
claim. He told the man that it was
an exceptionally fine claim, that the
land did not overflow and that he
would sell it to him for $4,000. The
man looked around and discovered
some red mud way up in a tree and
asked the real estate man what caused
that mud in the tree tops if the land
liz not overflow. The agent promptly
replied that there was a kind of hog
raised over in the Chickasaw country
which used to range on the creek and
that they rubbed the mud on the trees.
The ~prospector took a look over the
land. glanced up in the tree again and
told the Waurika man that he wouldn't
take the claim, but he would give him
$4,000 for a couple of those hogs

The Name Noses.

It is & curious fact unknown per-
haps to a majority Of readers, that
Moses of Scriptural fame was called
by eight different names in various
places in the Bible. Bathia, the daugh-
ter of Pharaoh, called him Moses be-
cause she drew him out Of the water.
Jochebed, his mother, called him Jeku-
thiel, saying, Il had hoped for him.
Miriam, his sister. called him Jared
because she had descended after him
into the water to see what his end
would be. Aaron called his brother
Abb Zanuch because his father had de
serted their mother. Amram, the ia
Their Of Moses. called the boy Chabar
because he was again reunited to the
mother Of the lad.
kehath, the grandfather of Moses,
called him Abigdor because God had
repaired the breach in the house of
Jacob. The nurse of the grandfather
of Moses called him Abb Sccho because
he was once hidden three months in
b Tabernacle. All Israel called him
Shemaiah because "in his days God
heard their cries and rescued them
from their ~oppressors."

Tho reasons which lead men to
choose u certain trade or profession are
often perhaps nc more sensible than the
reason the boy in the following story
from a New York paper gave for want.
Ing a place in a bank. The president Of
a bank told the story at his club.
Il don't think I ever told you of our
redheaded office boy, Brickbat," re-
marked the bank president after the
rest had each told a story.
Never did," was the answer.
Well" continued the speaker, che
came to me with recommendations
from his father. who was a schoolmate
OF mine up in Steuben county. After
read the note from the father I told the
boy to take off his hat, sit down in a
chair and tell me why he wanted to be
a banker. His answer was:
"'Cause I'm good at multiplying
"'Well,' said 1, cant you subtract
and divide too?
"'Oh, yes he said, but because a
banker wants to make all he can
thought you wanted a boy who could
multiply
II hired him on the strength of that"

so the men who bought on this occas-
