THE TWIN BALLOTS.

IThe following WAS handed us by Jeff Cover, and was composed in 1904 by A. r. Watson, of Nandalia. Mo, a Baptist Missionary Editorl ] Aloug in November when chill was
 the weather.
 Two ballots were cast in a box to-
 gether. They nestled down close like broth
 CT to brother;
 You couldn't tell one from the
 other They were both rum ballots. And sanctioned the license plan. One was cast by jolly old brewer, And one by Sunday School man. The Sunday School man, no man
 could be truer;
 Was busy all summer in fighting
 the brewer, But his fever cooled off with a
 change in the weather; And late in the Autumn they vot-
 ed together. The Sunday School man had always
 been noted,
 For fighting saloons; except when
 he voted, He piled up his prayers with holy
 perfection,
 But knocked them all down on tht
 day of election. The jolly old brewer was foxy and
 mellow
 Said he T admire that Sunday
 School fellow, He's true to his church. 10 his par

Tells About Ii In Poetry.

Aformer we'll known citizen of Springdale, who has been living in a distant state for number of years, recently had an addition to his family by Che birth of a son. On learning of the advent of the boy, a friend in springdale wrote the father and here is the latter's reply: In reply to your letter of recent
 date, Before could answer I had to wait To see the results of the wheels of
 fate, Whether it be boy with long flow
 ing curls. Or whether it be two bright golden
 haired girls. But now since fate has decreed it a
 boy, It brings to it's parents and sister
 exceeding great joy. When We put him in the balances
 for weight, The hand showed the mark of half
 past eight He has a heavy suit of dark brown
 hair, Eyes that are blue and face that
 is fair His limbs are all perfect and he is
 generally cute The neighbors all say he is pretty
 rather. And just the image of his dear
 father l wouldn't swap him for a girl now, With a thousand dollars to boot. He is the pride of his fathers heart, The height of his sisters joy. And his mother lavf2hes her whole
 heart, On her precious baby boy. His name is Franklin stinson. After both his grandpas, We thought thst better Than Moses the maker of laws His sister thinks hes the finest boy
 in town. And predicts in the future he will
 bring to the family great renown Before he came l vas happy as any
 one eyer could be, With one little girl to call he papa,
 and sit upon my knee. But since he came there $ climax
 10 my happiness and joy. Which nothing else could bring to
 me, But my precious baby boy. Tell the homefolk to share with us, In this our new found joy. That comes to Us in the person. Of our beautiful baby boy.
