WOULD VOTE FOR A MAN
NOT A DEMOCRAT.

Attorney General Hays at Ow-
enton is reported as saying he
would vote for Hager if nominated
but that he (Hager) was not Dem
ocrat. This does not sound right
coming from a man asking for
Democratic promotion.

GET OFF THE FENCE.

The man who would count for
something must be decided; he can
not straddle the fence. If he be
for Prohibition, and that is the
leading plank in his platform. then
he must follow that principle but
hold on to all others consistent with
his conscience, but be sure your
conscience is right.

linda, may | see you home? She
timidly replied, Yes. sir"
Now, on the road home they
entered into a contract to marry.
John, being cautious, would not
take TO himself a wife until he
had home, so he went to Brown
and submitted to him bill for
lumber with which to build a
small house. A few days after,
Brown handed John his estimate,
John drew another paper from his
pocket and, after comparing them,
said;
why, Mr.. Brownl Over at
McCracke MS they offer me this
lumber 20 per cent cheaper than
you offer itw
AT McCracken's mill, John7
Why, McCracken's mill is over in
Canada, and by the time you pay

BY II. 4. HART.

Once there was a young man
whose name was John. He was a
good young man and gained his
living by working in saw mill,
in northern Michigan, tor wage
OF one dollar per day. He was a
good hand. as was evidenced by
the fact that he had worked for
the same man for number of
years Brown, the man for whom
he worked, was we'll pleased with
him. so much so that they had
become friends, and. while many
others had received their walk
ing papers" and been sent adrift,
John still held his job and con
tinucd to draw his dollar a day
with the sa isfaction felt by only
sovereign citizens of great re
public.
One Sunday night John went to
church. and while sitting listening
to the sermon he chanced to
glance across the room where sat
Mallnda Jones. Now Malinda
was exceedingly fair to look upon,
which caused an idea to germi-
nate in the mind of John. After
the Doxology had been sung and
the bencdiction had been pro.
nounced, he stationed himself at
the door and waited patiently for
Malinda to appear. When at last

yes, John; if i, wasn't for the
tariff wages would go down"
"Well, Mr.. Brown, that being
the case, shall buy from you"
John bought the lumber, built
house, married and kept on work
ing.

winter now. The boys are get
ting up before daylight and work
ing until after dark in order to
get in full day. Saturday night
comes; Brown calls all of the
hands together and says; Boys,
you needn't come back to work
Monday morning unless you will
work tor seventy FIVE cents day"
After the others had gone,
John approached Brown and said:
Mr.. Brown, | should like to
know why you are reducing my
wages. You always paid me a
dollar day when | had only my
self to support: now there are two
of US and you are reducing my
wages to seventy. FIVE cents. Why
is it?"
That is my business, Iohn.
And besides | don't propose to
have my hands inquiring into my
affaiars."
well, Mr. Brown, have
worked for you long time; am
established here and expect to
stay, but think you should let
me know wherein | am at fault,
so | may improve, instead OF
lowering my wages"
"Now, John look here; your
work is all right, but McCracken's
mill has burned down and the
men offer to come here and work
for seventy-fve cents a dav. /
am giving you the first chance.
"Oh! But hold on, Mr.. Brown.
McCracken's men are over in
Canada, and by the time you pay
the tariff on them to get them
over here, they will cost you as
much as | will"
"Why, john You're a fool!

, GUIMARD, THE SPIDER.
rhe Great Dancer of the Great Days
of the Ballet.

The elder Vestris. who fourished in
the middle Of the eighteenth century,
called himself the god of dancing"
and declared in all sincerity and with
out rebuke that his century had pro-
duced but three supreme men-himself.
Frederick the Great and Noltaire. On
one occasion when reproving his son
Augustus for refusing to dance before
the king # Sweden at the request of
the king of France he said that he
would not tolerate any misunderstand-
ing between the houses of Vestris and
Bourbon, which had lived hitherto upon
the most friendly terms.
Madeleine Gumard made her debut
when she was thirteen years of age
and for nearly thirty years kept all
Paris worshipng at her feet This
was a success of art and not of beauty,
for Gulmard was so aggressively thin
that she was known rs the spider
She discovered the great painter David,
who helped Fragonard to adorn her
house with frescoeS. Indeed, Frago-
nard, for whose paintings today fabu-
lous sums have been paid, lost his COM
mission because he dared to fall in
love with his patron. Gumard had
theater in her own house, and her en-
tertainments there were deemed eX-
travagant in an age of luxury, Paris
could not spare her to London until she
was past her fortieth year. She was
sort OF boudoir adviser to Marie An
toinette, and so great was the esteem
in which she was held that one Of the
most distinguished sculptors of tho
day nodded her foot, and when her
arm was broken in stage accident a
mass for her speedy recovery was cele-
brated at Notre Dame. - Macmillan's
