BUILT A KITCHEN CABINET
Handy Man Worked at Il Sundays,
but Forgot to Measure the
etalr<Nay,

He is the meat man IN q street
grocery. Besides being handy At trim
ming spare ribs with . safety razor
he IL also An adept with carpenters
tools. About q year ago he decided
to build kitchen cabinet for his wife.
He chose the basement ~ the place
OF construction. ordered a lot Of lum-
Der and other accessories and went to
work.
The only time he had to give to tho
kitchen cabinet cause was on Sunday.
as he had to work early and late dur.
Ing the week. He closed all basement
windows tightly In order to mufde all
the noise he made with saws and ham
ners. He even had = set Of signals
arranged with his wife that she was
to stamp on the floor when the min
lister Of some pious friend was pass
ing. Sunday after Sunday he toiled
away on the kitchen cabinet, picturfng
in his mind how pretty and how use
full It would be in the kitchen.
Finally the cabinet was finished and
the builder asked two or three Of
the boys at the store to dro- over on
Sunday morning and help him carry
It upstairs. The boys, anxious to see
the product OF 50 many days OF toll.
accepted the invitation and went over.
It was q Jim Dandy kitchen cabinet.
It was the best ever-even better than
The store kind.
We'll. boys, let's hike upstairs with
It" said Fritz. the cabinet constructor.
The boys took hold, tilted 1t and
started for the stairway. Fritz groaned.
The boys snothered a laugh.
It was nine inches too wide for tho
stairway.
The cabinet has departed this life
via the furnace 1t Is unlikely that
Fritz will build another.

copDI1NG THE FARMER.

"ash!n gtOn, Iowa. Democrat
The Iowa Homestead. which usually
takes no interes, in politics, has Joined
The ranks OF "c!ackers" for the Iowa
farmer. Il Is simply amazing what
tender sol.cttude these papers NANTES:
for the poor, dowrtrodden farmer.
They talk Of the farmer as X he were
a class apart, and noc up,o-date n
his views and ways OF thinking. The
Homestead. which pretends to keep out
Of politics. even goes SO far as 20 lie
about II. and /. Hes IKE the devil TOO.
It says rot a farmer IN Iowa Is for
reciprocity. ana we k3c" hundred. Of
them who are. right here in Wash :
;ngton county.
We believe the HON estead when It
says no farmers are :or reciprocity
with Canada, refers only to re-
publicans, but We know OF plenty OF
democratic farmers who are willing TO
take a chance at the trade agreem mt
with Canada. The very chaps who are
now SO Justify bowling against reel
proc!tv are the ones who howled Tor
years for tariff reform. and Senator
Alher, B. Cummins led the list
Taft played the best politics OF all
his lifetime when ne made them shoot
or give up the gun. He called the
bluff OF the progress!ves and now they
are hustling TO cover like a lot OF
bunny cottontaiis when the wolves are
turned loose after them.
Only one lone. lonesome Iowa con-
gresham stood the test, and that Is
Hubbard. away of up in the Eleventh
district territory Inhabited by In
dams and buffalo and Wild turkeys and
jack rabbits. Al! the rest turned tail
and ran for the tall timber.
The Iowa Homestead will not gain
anything by coddltng the farmer. The
farmer is 10 fool ard will not be
nisled by any poppycock handed him
on silver spoon. He can see fraud
or a subterfuze Just as quickly as any
body else. We get so Internally tired
OF this constant coddl!ng the farm or
that We want to yell bloody murder
every time We hear of it.
The farmer is no different from other
people. He may wear overalls. h!ck-
DRY shirt and an old. crumpled up
pants with long gallus fastened with
an old rusty tent penny nail and he
can go without underclothes In the
summer time, and he may not wear q
night gown when he retires to his
virtuous couch at night. but his think
works are as active as the think works
Of any writer on the Iowa Homestead
and then some.
Oh, the Iowa farmer may eat pie
with his knife and he may drink his
coffee right out OF his saucer with a
report like pouring vinegar down a
rat hole. but he gets there just the
same. The farmer may not have any
use for finger bowl, but he can bow
his head and say his prayers for all
that. We DO not recall that the apostles
