The average Mississippi citizen inn
agines he lives at home, says an ex-
change. Bat be dosen't, He gets up
in the morning and puts on pair of
socks made in New York, shoes made
in Boston, pants made i'll OHIO, then
slips On pair of Connecticut suspen-
ders over his shoulders. He dips some
water from Missoari bucket with a
Chicago dipper and puts it into an llli-
nois pan and washe his Mississippi
face using q cake Of St. Louis soap
in the operation He dries his face on
Rhode Island towel and reaches his
hair with Vermont comb.
He then drinks Cuban coffee from
an Indiana cup and saucer, sweetened
with Louisiana sugar and stirred with
New York spoon. His knife, fork
and plate were made in the North,
and his table cloth ditto. He eats
piece of Chicago ham fried in Kansas
lard, sops his St Louis biscuits, seas
oned with Boston soda and Michigan
salt, into Louisiana molasses. lie
wipes his whiskers on Vermont nap.
kin and seats his family in Michigan
chairs around a table from the same
state. His meal was cooked on st.
Louis stove with wood chopped with
st. Louis AK and hauled in an Indiana
wagon.
The citizen then puts a Boston bri-
die on a Tennessee mule, gets out a
Georgia plow and works in field en-
cumbered in all probability with a
New York mortgage. He returns at
night and satisfies his appetite with an
other imported meal. fills his Indiana
lamp with Pennsylvania OIL and
lights it with New York match.
de then fills his Illinois pipe with
North Carolina tobacco and settles
down for a comfortable smoke
When bedtime comes, he takes down
the family Bible, which was printed
in. massachusetts, reads a chapter, says
prayer copmosed in Jerusalem, then
retiles TO his bed, slips under his inn
ported covers and is kept awake for
two long hours by the howlS of his
Mississippi dog, which is the only
bone product he has on his farm.
Here's to laughter the sunshine of
the soul, the happiness of the heart,
the leaven of youth, the privilege OF
purity, the echo of innocence, the
treasure of the humble, the wealth Of
the poor, the bead on the cup of pleas
ure it dispels detection, banishes b.u6s
and margles melancholy, for it's the
foe Of woe, the destroyer ct depression,
the enemy of grief. 1t is what kings
envy peasants, plutocrats envy the
poor, the guilty envy the innocent, it's
the sheen on the silver of smiles, the
ripple on the waters of delight, the
CLINT on the gold of gladness; without
it humor would be dumb wit would
wither, dimples would disappear and
smiles would shrivel, for it's the glow
of clean conscience, the voice of a
pure soul, the birth cry of .mirth, the
swan song of sadness. Laughter"
