THE ROAD HOG.

About as good a way to study man
nature is when you are driving on the
public road. If a man is willing to
observe the laws and the courtesies of
the road. he will duly give his share of
it when meeting another. and shows he
is willing to do the gentlemanIy thing
about it. When you meet one who takes
every advantage of those he meets. and
holds the road for his own selfish self
often to the great discomfort of those
he meets, or will not allow them to
pass. we are almost sure to think of
pork in connection with such drivers of
teams. Bedford Democrat.
This is well descriptive of a
certain class we meet up with
everyday. To the which might
have been added the buggy or
carriage driver who sticks to his
rights TO the right in passing a
heavily loaded team pulling
through sand ruts, instead of
timely pulling to the left and
letting the burdened beasts con-
tinue in their track.
