Farmers Smooth Retort.

One Of Governor Fosss old Massa-
chusetts friends recalled to him the
other day one Of his early defeats in
politics. We'll, there were some COM
pensating features in the fight" said
the governor. Reminds me OF the
old farmer out in Iowa. A live stock
dealer arrived in town and bought all
the hogs In the vicinity except from
one old fellow, who held out for a
higher price than the dealer was will
ing to give. The old man said he'd
rather drive his hogs over the road to
Chicago than accept the price offered
by the dealer. He did drive his hogs
over the road. OF course, they lost
weight, and in addition to that when
he got to Chicago the bottom had
dropped out of the market, and he had
to sell his hogs for great deal less
than he could have disposed Of them
for at home. His neighbors gleefully
awaited his return home, and when he
stepped off the train they began to
josh him about his poor trade. He
listened for a while and then said :
We'll, there's this advantage | had
over you fellows; had the company
OF the hogs all the time"

The Man Under the Bed

Miss Melissa impson had regularly
looked under her bed for--odd years.
In all that time she had never found
a man under 1t. People often laughed
at her, but she did not care and went
on looking under her bed each day.
Years went by without the expected
happening.
Then, on this day, she went into the
bedroom of her luxuriously furnished
home and was standing at the window
when she heard an unmistakable
sound. 1t was under her bed and inst
the sound she expected. Without
a sign OF fear she turned on the lights
and walked over to the bed, turned IN
the draperies
How are you getting along?" she
called out without culver.

THAT is good she returned calmly
and walked out of the room.

THURSDAY JULY 20, 1911.

The longer we live, the more We
learn, and the more we learn, the less
we think we know. Such is the IN
consistency of mans ideas. The less
one knows the greater his opinion OF
his abilities and wisdom. In the morn
ing of life a conceited man prides him
self on his greatness, and wonders to
what grand channel he will contine his
talents He looks upon his school dis
trict as the world at large, and him
self as the great genius in whose keep
ing the worlds nature rests. lie I'M
AGNES that when he speakes, nations
tremble, mountains totter and the sea
becomes silent.
He imagines that gaping and Won
dering populace are gazing on him
with wonder and establishment, and
that he holds the world in the hol-
low of his hand.
But as days, and months, and years
pass in rapid succession, the young
man finds out that he is possibly mis-
taken and if he would wander away
and get lost some one or more OF all
the people on the earth would not
miss him. BY and by he begins to
realize that he is only one of the
many millions of people, and instead
Df l,nnl;,fr font IA og he pantar T.
traction, he only fills small niche
of some obscure corner, and really
attracts but little attention. The ig-
norant man who realizes his ignor-
ance and who does not seek to pass
himself off for more than he is worth,
is pardonable. but the self-conceted
man who tries to pass himself of at a
premium, is to be pited The best
way is TO hold ones self-esteem down
and not rate himself too high.
1t is more pleasant to be invited to
take higher seat than to be deprived
of it. 1t is more pleasant to he king
of cottage than the servant of a
palace. 1t is better to be a good five
cent piece than bogus quarter; in
other words, it Is better TO hold our
selves at what we are honestly worth.
The world is full of people who never
learn anything because they think
they know enough to begin with.
Thousands believe themselves wise
when their ignorance is lamentabe:
thousands believe themselves clothed
in gold when they are only thinly plat
ed and the copper shows through in
many places. The wisest are campar-
atively ignorant and thousands of men
who have grand ideas of their own a.
bilities will some day wake up to the
realization that they have been labor
ing under large sized delusion. Many
young mans lifeis gilded by bright
dreams that come in the early stage Of
the game, but later on he finds that
these dreams are only empty, and @,
how little is the change when it comes.
