A travelling man who had been on a
business trip through northern Texas
while east Of Greenville had occasion
to hire buggy to go across the coun-
try, and with the buggy there was
thrown in by the livery stable negro,
who, the travelling man says, was about
the color Of anthracite. The two
Travelled across the muddy roads for
miles upon miles, and all was going
well when suddenly the negro rose in
the buggy.
"Look a-dah!' he shouted.
The drummer looked barely in time
to see an ordinary cottontail rabbit
cross the road like streak Of gray.
The negro prepared to get out.
What are you doing?' demanded the
drummer, catching at the lines as they
fell. The negro got out. Then he care
fully turned every one Of his ragged
pockets inside out, backed up to the
place which the cottontail had crossed
and walked across the imaginary line
backward. Then he climbed into the
buggy again.

Old Letters.

There is but one thing to do with old
love letters-in fact, with all old let
ters, love OF otherwise that is to
burn them.
Letters are personal. the thoughts,
the wishes Of the moment Letters are
seldom Of historical interest. If SO, it
Is an easy matter to preserve those.
An old letter is seldom Of interest
While life is granted to the writer's, and
but cause of misery after death has
claimed either. Should both writer and
the one addressed be taken from the
world the old letters are either care
essly paraded or left to mold in cor
ner of the attic.

which is but an exchange Of personal
thought hopes or dreams-is answered
It is time to burn it. 1t will then new
