WORDS OF WISDOM.

Farmers make lot OF money for the
people who sell what they raise.
Every boy needs a good education
so he can realize how little he knows.
When man talks weather to you it
is a sign he thinks you are Il blamed
fool.
Everybody's head would be filed
with brains if they were no use to
him.
People can enjoy doing most any
thing unless they make their living
by it.
Either it isn't hot enough in the cold
season or cold enough in the warm
season.
If man married rich wife prob
ably it would be just his luck to so
and die.
To man spring brings tender
thoughts of fishing rod; to woman
of bonnet.
A nice thing about living in the
suburbs is it never seems hard to die
when your turn comes.
A man gets along witk his landlord
almost as comfortably as with his
wife's relatives.
A woman calls man good husband
when he will blame anything she does
to Annoy him on the weather.
A man always thinks he would be
willing to drink less if lie had half as
much money as he spends on it,
1t would be much easier to be good
If you thought ii was smart to keep
anybody from catching you at it.
a girl is going to have good time
at the stupidest kind of a party if she
is going to wear a new dress at it.
You have to understand human ma
ture mighty well to know that other
people aren't any bigger fools than you
are.
If woman rode across on steamer
and came right back again without get
ting off the ship she would talk about
the time when she lived abroad.-From
Reflections of Bachelor" in the
New York Press.

The Gila River enters the Colorado
just west of Yuma, and we crossed its
angry waters through maze of eddes
and whlrlpools through which immense
quantities of driftwood were whlrling
in mad race. Escaping the worst of
the turmoil, we reached the town at
racing speed and made triumphant
landing, with half our journey ac-
complished
At most places alongshore the river
had reached the line of older growths
and was levellinS the larger trees by
hundreds wherever bend of the river
directed the force of the current
against the far shore. Trees ten inches
in diameter and twenty to thirty feet
high were constantly topping into the
Unsuitable river
The fall Of these larger trees was
always graceful. The first intimation
of II was n distinct shiver that ran
through the entire tree, but was most
marked in the upper branches; mo-
ment later the tree would bend grace
fully forward as if bowling to its enc
my. An infants pause, and it would
sink slowly into the rushing waters
that had reached to and loosened the
insh0re roots.
Tree after tree of this larger growth
would start down the river broadslde
to the current. Slowly at first, II
would roll over and over tangling its
branches into great skeleton wheel,
rolling faster and faster as the
branches became more impacted and
presented fewer projecting points to
catch and hold for a moment in the
shallower reaches. Eventually the
branches would be worn off in such
progress, leaving only the tougher roots
TO retard it. Then the denuded tree
would give up the struggle, and whlrl-
ing into the line of least resistance,
would float head on down stream until
caught by the spreading roots in some
shallow.-G. G. Copp, in Harper's Mag.

Southern Chivalry.

Many stories have been told oil

pears to go to story told by former
governor of Kentucky while visiting
in this city recently.
According to the narrator genuine
Kentucky colonel boarded a street car
which was very crowded. and some
how he stepped on the foot of very
pretty woman. OF course the woman
expected the Colonel to apologize. just
as did everybody else who heard her
give a mouselike squeal when the
Coloneps foot came down.
And she looked as though she ex-
pected an apology, but the Colonel.
diyining her thought, doffed his hat
and said; "No, madam, I'm not going
to apologize. When the good Lord
was so gracious as to make women
so beautiful and charming and with
such wonderfully small feet that a
man has to tramp on them to find
them, then I don't think that an apol-
ogy-"
The compliment was too graceful
for the woman to resist, and all that
followed was a smiling acknowledge
ment of the Colonel's gallant speech.
