from an intellectual standpoint, states
men of the present fall below the
standard set by those of the past, one
of the members told the following
story:
There lived in Lee county, Ky, a
local sage by the name of Jesse Cole
Jesse entertained the notion that the
present day type of lawyer was not
to be compared with the jurists of the
old days. One day as he was entering
the courthouse at Beattyville he MOTTO
ed a group of lawyers who were dis
cussing the points of a case that was
to come up that day. Cole, disguised
by their conversation, stepped up to
them and said:
Gentlemen, thirty or forty years
ago the lawyers in this state were
men-great, big immense men, wear
ing fur hats as big as bushel baskets.
But now gentlemen, l honestly believe
that a fellow could without the least
difficulty draw a tomato can over the
head of any one Of you "-Harpers

Mother For

By Harriet G. Garfield
Copyright. 1904. by Hamlet C. Garfield

John Philip Brown sat up very
ble Mrs. Rachel Noah, at the other
end, could not see his little bare feet
playing tag beneath the table.
aunt Rachel looks just like my
chicken hawk-anyways she would If
he wore spit curls," he said to himself,
with little chuckle 81 bet But John
Philips bet was never recorded, for Su-

Mrs. Noah stared at her reprovingly.
II did not ring" she said sternly.
Nom, l know you didn't, but She
she's here, an -
"'She?' Take your apron down from
your mouth and talk connectedly. Who

columbia - Columbia Farley. She
says that's her name, ma'am, an she's
from the Orphans home-a little mite
of a thing, an that funnyr Here Su-
san retired again behind her apron.
What does she want?" Mrs. Noah
asked grimly.
"Well, ma'am," Susan exploded, "she
wants to stay!
"Stay?" her mistress repeated blank
ly, while John Philip, unreproved
squirmed with delight. Here was some
thing doing at last.
"Yes'm," Susan went on, "She's had
her eye on this house, she says, for a
long time, but it want till this morn
in that she decided she'd live with
you. She's a-settin' on her satchel out
in the Kitchen"
Mrs. Noah fairly snorted with aston
ishment and indignation. Much oblig
ed to her, I'm sure" she said sarcas-
tically, "and may l ask what decided
her in our favor?"
ct was John Philip, ma'am," Susan
said, choking with laughter. "She-she
says she wants to be mother to him."
John Philips face matched his hair
in color now; even the freckles took on
a livelier red. "Consarn her' he said
under his breath.
ANY more? his aunt asked, with
the air of one prepared for the worst.
"Yes'nl; she asked what your name
was, an when l said Mrs. Noah she
was that surprised She said she'd
heard about you an Mr.. Noah at Sun
day school, but she had no idee you
was Twin yet"
Anything more? My oatmeal is get
ting cold. Don't stand there giggling
like an idiot"
"She wondered how old you was,
ma'am, an when l said l didn't know
she thought she could tell by lookin'
at your teeth like the hired man at
the home done when he bought

(From a Speech by Bob" Taylor.)
Hands that once stayed the tide of
ruin and defeat at Buena Vista are
held out toward us, all withered and
empty; arms that welded sword and
musket at Cherubusco and Cerro
Gordo and hurled the thunderbolts
of battle at the gates of the Mexican
capital are.uplitted to us, unnerved
and uncovered; bodies that felt the
wrath and tempest of Moino del Rey
are clad in tatters and rags feet that
once scaled with impetuous tread the
heights of Monterey, of Chapultepec,

Grant was General; 80 were
Hayes and Garfield and Harrison.
Mckinley was a Major. Since An
drew johnson, all the Presidents,
except Arthur and Cleveland, down
to Roosevelt, were soldiers of the
civil-war. Mckinley was the last.
The civil.war veteran has passed from
the Presidents office to return no
more. Senator Bate was perhaps
the last of the old Copfederates in the
Senate from Tennessee. He is also
the last of tie old school of South
ern gentlemen who link the past with
the present. Turney was the last
Confederate to serve as Governor.
1t is doubtful whether another old
Confederate will be elected Governor,
Senator or Representative.

Baseball at Midnight

" The Yukon country went wild

and 4 900 persons at each game, land

A great wave of color rolled over
Mrs. Noah's face and broke on the
beach of "spit curls" outlining her hlgh
forehead. Bring her in," she SAID
closing her thin lips tightly over heI
"store' teeth.
Susan disappeared and moment lat'
err ushered Columbia Farley" into the
august presence of her mistress she
was truly "a mite of a thing" WIN
great dark eyes and most engaging
smile.
"How do you do, Mrs. Noahy she
said, holding out her hand in quaint
old fashioned way. To John Philip
surprise, his aunt took the little hand
in hers.
$50 you'd like to live here?" she said
not unkindly.
Yes, awful well. Don't you need
me?" she asked naively.
Il think not" Mrs. Noah said, very
gently for her. "and, besides, couldn t
take you without the consent Of the
matron at the home"
ooh, she won't care!' the little girl
exclaimed eagerly. "There's too many
of us now and
well" Mrs. Noah interrupted, you
can stay to breakfast, and then III go
with you to the home" The child had
crept thus quickly into a warm corner
of the grim lady's heart.
She was eating her oatmeal when
John Philips father came down to
breakfast and asked so kindly, "Whose
little girl is this?" that Columbia's
heart went out to him then and there.
81 don't know" she said simply in
reply to his question. "They amt
found out yet at the home, but know
how old l am. Pm going on seven.
I'm little, but maybe I'd do for him"
she nodded cheerily at John Philip
"till he got a really, truly one"
"a really, truly what?" Mr.. Brown
asked smilingly.
"Why, mother, of course. learned
how to be one from Mis- Jones. She
has eight children. She lives near the
home. You just help 'em be good, and
they will. cause you love 'em So It's
awful nice to have a mother" she said
wistfully. 81 asked Tommy Jones if
he didn't think so, and he said, Sure
thing!"
John Philip tried to scowl, but his
forehead refused to quicker, and when
his father said, "Shall we let her adopt
you, SOM" he laughed outright. We
we-might give her try" he stammer-
ed.
And so it happened that Columbia
Farley entered the Brown family ION
probation" and later was taken into
full membership"
1t was on Saturday morning, a
month or more after Columbia had
been received into full membership
that the children were playing together
in the garden.

noon" John Philip announced. Aunt
Rachel would just worry if told her,
