Common Fairness.

A special writer has been asked by a
magazine editor to do short article
for him, and a country cousin Of the
free lance was visiting him at the
time. The free lance sat down that
evening, turned OF the article, and In
company with his cousin went to the
magazine office the next day to deliver
the article personally, as the editor
was In a hurry for 1t. While they
were there the editor asked the writer
how much he wanted for 1t.
"Oh, say $780," was the answer.
"All right" said the editor. do you
mind taking this order down to the
cashiers window and getting your
check?"
The free lance took the order and
stepped out Of the office, leaving his
cousin with the editor. Before the
editor could mako some commonplace
remark by way Of conversation, the
cousin leaned over and said, mysteri-
ously:
"Say! He's my cousin, an all that
but believe In honesty. That feller's
skinned you proper. It didn't take him
more'n two hours to write that thing.

1t. He didn't put In more'n 80 cents

Honesty BY Law.

Moses was the first lawgiver.
He tried ten laws on the Israelites.
And that didn't make them all good.
So along came some one else and
fixed up about hundred laws.
That number did not make human
ity any better.
On the principle, evidently, that In
obstinate diseases the dose should be
increased, more and more laws were
made.
At last 1t became necessary to
choose men to do nothing but make
laws.
Out Of this grew the great Ameri
can game Of politics, which the poll
ticians fondly incase in a long-tailed
coat and finish Of with q top hat and
call craftsmanship.
Not only do We have one set of men
busy making laws for the whole ma.
ton to break, but each state has its
own set Of men grinding out laws for
state fracture, and each community
has its little bunch Of aldermen pre-
pairing laws for local disregard.
1t might be well to go back to the
original ten, for a rest.

"Where Is her" the apple trees say II
In all the new Joy of their bloom,
The breeze come laughing, and sway II
Along with the cllnging perfume;
The grass that Is greener and cleaner

OF clover by summer winds blown.

AS gayly 1t chatters along;

Have blent in the lit Of their song;
The path up the hillside is dumbly
InQuiring for his little feet
His feet that were shapely and comely,
That trudged through the grass and the
wheat.
The roses that budded this morning
Are asking the question with all,
They mind how his wee fingers scorning
The thorns at the branches would haul
Until they could reach to the rarest
And reddest rose. dripping with dew,
And claim II because It was fairest
OF all Of the roses that grew.
They miss him, and miss him, and miss
him;
The breeze Of the morning is sad
Because 1t no longer may kiss him
And shake with his laugh that was
glad;
The orchard is solemnly quiet,
So quiet, indeed, that the bees
In wonder go hurriedly by 1t
And seek in the faraway trees.
''where is her" A hush on the hillside
A silence all day IN the field.
An untrodden path by the hillside
And then Is the answer revealed.
A myrtle is lovingly creeping,
A cypress bends down to be near
The low little mound where he's sleeping

Where is the boy-the real boy-the boy
that used to be,
The boy that planned to run away and
go to sail the sea,
The boy that yearned to twist a brake
upon the local freight,
The boy that thought a circus ring held
all of proud estate?
And where's the boy-the boy-est boy that
ever lived at all,
Who whistled on his fingers in a wild,
ear-splitting call?
Boys nowadays go solemnly at learning
this and that
Which he held in the busy brain beneath
his ragged hat
Oh, where's the hat he used to wear?-
The coffee straw" whose peak
Rose high, while all the sagging brim
slapped him on neck and cheek,
Or else it was a hickory" shoe string
for a band
The dealer strung them on a cord, all
ready to his hand.
He was a Boy! He knew more things
than you and may learn,
He knew where Indian turnips grow, and
how they itch and burn,
He knew the birds Familiarity, he watched
May-apples grow.
And had his private fishing place where
only he might go,
He went barefooted- How his feet got
stone-bruised right away!
He never had his two front teeth. Where
Is that boy today?
All, how he'd whistle! First and little
fingers in his lips,
And then blast that cut the air like to
a hundred whips!
And how he looked! His north stretched
wide, his eyes all strained and set
It's strange that such a boy as that is
now no longer met.
Becollared and be-shoed our boys go aim
lessly through life
And never stand red-faced and blow up
on their flnger-fife.
