Hated to Take the Money.

Frank 1. Cobb, the chief editorial
writer of the Now York World, was
on a vacation in the Maine woods
once when Joseph Pulitzer. owner OF
the World, wanted to communicate
with him. Mr.. Pulitzer sent Cobb a
cipher message.
Presently a country operator drove
in to the Cobb camp and handed Cobb
the message. which read something
like this:
neutrality-suspicious. = grlf'
-gerald-roderick - hopscotch =
hamfat-publicity."

The.Farmers' ~SoIiIoquy.

When the farmers cribs are full OF
corn,
OF wheat and corn and hay,
It dom seem times are quite so dull
AS we hear people say.
Perhaps the cash is sorter scarce,
But then l seem to find
There amt so many mortgages
and debts to get behind.
1t amt so easy to make drafts,
Or buy goods, there's no doubt,
But still we have learned how many
things
That we can do without.
Hard times have taught us how to feel
Like freemen down this way,
And now there is no poverty
Where there are no debts to pay.
And no man really is hard up
With Southern ground to till.
And Southern chickens flying around,
And Southern hogs to kill.
And in his heart that Southern pride
That independence briggs
Why, then, no matter how things go
The farmers are all Kings.

Numberless men alleged to be hurt

Their trouble comes from bum
dance of leisure and inactivity. They
yawn through three or four hours in

heavy and rich a dinner; 60 out after

the like, and join boon companions
who walk around billiard tables or sit
at cards, and keep very thirsty until
the drowsy steeples toll two and three.
This is overwork, but OverwOrk in the
wrong direction, and Of a very differ
