HAD FUN WITH PA.
A Ride on an "0cean Wave" Car
Pa Gives in.

The following is taken from the
st. Louis Republic:
When man from Mexico, Mo.
aud proud of it, came to st. Louis
recently to see his son, who is an
attorney, he made up his mind that
IL any one sold him n gold bisck,
induced him to ask any questions
that he conld avoid, or 10 any other
way imposed upon the fact he was
not city broke, he would make them
spring an entirely new one. Feel.
ing absolutely certain that all sorts
of efforts would be made to land
him, the father was very cautious.
lie refused to show the slightest
surprise when the most astonishing
statements were made to him, aud
accepted all these as it they were
every day incidents of life in Au-
drain County. 1t would be pleas.
ant to state that the son tried to
shield his father, but the cold facts
OF the ease are that he spent all his
spare time figuring ont plans TO
catch the old man. by the time
he had been here three days the
Mexico muu wouldn't have loaned
Il stranger 30 cents with a $40 gold
piece AS security, and with the
stoicism of an Indian he avoided
showing surprise.
Ills downfall came at u SUNNI err
garden, where he had been taken
by his sou. When they were ready
to start home the young man
suggested that they go home by the
elevated" aud escorted his father
to a seat in figure.eight car.
After the first dip down and sudden
rise the old man lost his nerve aud
gasped:
Son, what IN Il lid town is the
matter with this thing, anyway"
Guess it's jumped the track"
the young man replied, cody. 1t
will probably jump back on again"
The old farm back in Audraiu
County began to look like paradise
to pa, and every devilish twist of
that Internal car made the chances
look remote ofever seeing the home
place again. Then the old man
weakened, aud with Il trembling
hand on his boys shoulder he said:
Son, if you can stop this thing
| guess we had better go back home
the way we come.
