WHY SUCH MISREPRESENTATION

II is the opinion of Senator Nc
Creary. editor OF The Gainesville Sun.
that IL the new primary law does not
result in the abolition Of the primary
system of nominating officers. then
nothing else Is calculated 20 do so.
The new law will have TO be- seen
TO be- appreciated by the voters.
He thinks it's provisions are too
drastic c.-Times-U Union Short Talks
Senator McCreary Is one OF IN,
conservative" Senators who have al.
ways been opposed TO the primary
which gives to the people the righ,
TO select their own candidates. and
takes this right away from tho cor.
porations who have always controlled
conventions Senator MCCreary can
perhaps tell an anxious public whether
or not the drastic provision" Of thu
primary law were inserted with the
idea OF making the primary 50 obiec.
tlonable that IL would be an easy
thing to halter the voters and lead
them back 10 the convention trough.

Early this spring Uncle Ashdod
Clute made up his mind that he was
pretty sure to die within twenty or
thirty years, and he felt that 1t would
be a shame to die and not leave any
thing to carry his name down to pos
terity. and that he ought to hustle up
bit II he wanted to enroll his name
on the banner of fame. The only
thing that troubled him was that there
were not many things man could do
in BetZville to make his name resound
around the world like a June bug in
a bass-drum. but one day. when he
was down at the creek fishing. the
idea came to him like flash.
He says he was sitting there with a
grasshopper in one hand and the fish
hook in the other. ready to thread the
grasshopper on the hook, when Sim
ultaneously at the same time bee
alighted on his left ear and a mos
quito on his right ear. He says that
any ordinary man might never have
got an idea from that, but Uncle Ash
dod can wiggle his ears to and fro like
flag in the breeze. and he wiggled
them. He says he must have wriggled
them too hard, but he wasn't paying
much attention to his ears just then.
He says that II he had wiggled his
ears with just slight wiggle all
would have been we'll. but he must
have wiggled them mighty strong, for

Along about the 9Th Of August
Uncle Ashdod opened the hermetical-
ly sealed incubator in which he had
deposited the eggs Of the bisquito. as
he called the new insect. He had pre-
pared the eggs carefully, cutting each
egg in two and then gluing the rear
end of mosquito egg to the fore-end
of bee egg. He did this with sew
eral thousand eggs. and then put them
to hatch in a butter tub in his attic.
1t was his first attempt at egg graft
ing, and he hardly hoped that more
than one or two of the eggs would
hatch, but the results far exceeded his
expectations.
The 9Th of August was warm day
and Uncle Ashdod was but lightly clad
when he entered his attic. When he
took the lid off the butter tub he ut
tered an exclamation of surprise, for
1t seemed that every egg had Matched.
The butter tub was full of bisquitos
of the strongest quality. They were
full Of vitality and they seemed to
recognize that Uncle Ashdod was a
sort of step-father to them, and sew

II man doesn't love his work, he
had better get something else to do.
But the trouble is that such people
will hardly love any kind of work.
The trouble is in them. They lack
intelligence. II they knew enough
to know good work, they would soon
learn to love it. The manual-train-
ing scheme has this in view-to sur
round the job man is doing with
such intelligence and taste as will
make it attractive to him.

Job gets more contentment out of life
than any other" says Brander Mat
thews; and he gets great part of his
contentment in doing his work right.
No man can love his work who shirks.
No man can be contented who is dis
honest about his work. This is shirk-
ing or doing it negligently. So these
things always go together-honest
work, contentment and love of the job.

Stated In Cold Figures.

1t costs on an average about $3.50
to cure an incipient consumptive or
to care for an advanced case of tuber-
culosis until death. If he is left in des-
titute circumstances without proper
attention he will surely infect with
his disease at least two other persons,
and possibly more. Considering that
the average life is worth to society
in dollars and cents about 81 500, the
net loss which would accrue to COM
munity by not treating its poor con-
sumptives in proper institutions would
be, for each case, including those who
are unnecessarily infected, at the very
lowest figure, $4,25O. On this basis, If
the poor consumptives in the United
States who are now sick were segre-
gated from their families, and either
kept in institutions until they died, or
else cured of their disease. the saw
ing to the country would be the enor-
nous sum of $1,275, 100000.

1t angered the bee and the mosquito.
and at the same moment that the
mosquito angrily bit him on the right
ear the bee arose in its might and
swatted its singer into his left ear
up to the handle.
1t was Immediately after that-with-
in one-tenth of a secondhand Uncle
Ashdod saw where a great improve
ment could be made in bees and mos
quitos. He says his ear began to
swell Immediately, but that before it
had swelled enough to notice he had
decided that the rear end of bee
could be greatly modified for the bet
ter. He also says that few men could
think of two things at the same time.
but that at the same moment that he
thought of improving the bee he real
lied that the front end Of mosquito
would be more popular with humanity
If the singer wasn't on it.
So, as soon as he got home. he set
to work thinking how to improve the
he thought about it the surer he be-
came that life was too short for one
man to improve both separately and
that the right thing to do would be to
mix the breeds of bees and mos
quitos. He said that the only OBJ
jectionable part of the bee was its
after-deck and rudder. SO to speak.
and that the mean part of the mos
quito was its fore-deck and bowsprit,
and what the world had been longing
for these many centuries was COM
bination of the fore-end of the bee and
the rear-end of the mosquito, thus
forming one sweet and useful insect.
About that time a bald-headed man
from Chicago came to Betzville to get
material for History of the Promi-
nent Citizens of Ringtail County,"
the cost of the book being only ten
dollars, including the insertion of a
handmade biography of the purchaser
as one of tho most prominent of all,
and $25 additional for a steel engrav-
ing with a firm but gentle look. He
strongly urged Uncle Ashdod to fall
for it. saying that Uncle Ashdod had
bunch of the most biographical look
ing whiskers in all Ringtail county,
and that now was the time to be steel
engraved. before the price of steel
went up. But Uncle Ashdod babe him
wait. lie told the man from Chicago
that he would gladly uplift Amer
lean literature by contributing his face
and biography, but that he would not
be ready until about potatodigging
time. The fact was that Uncle Ash
dod did not want his biography until
he could run into it sthe facts about
the creation of the stingless bee and
the biteless mosquito, and he hoped,
by the time pumpkins were ripe, to
