not to show off his ability as a

day morning he got up real early
about 9 o'clock-and went out
to split enough wood to last the
family during the day, and to
show that he was some hand at
the business, proceeded to spit on
his hands and strike a mighty
blow at the chunk on the split
ting block. He knew there was
a witness to the supreme effort
and wanted to exemplify to the
greatest, and put all the strength
possible in the blow. What do
you think he did? Struck his
wife's clothes line and down it
came, with a full line Of white
clothes recently washed hanging
thereon. The way he moved
about getting hold of the severed
end to keep the clothes from
touching the ground was some
thing worth seeing, and after
help arrived it was only a small
matter Of time it required for
him to remove the laundry. We |
didn't wait to hear what Mrs.
Sheen said.
