by a cedar water bucket, secured until
it's brass hoops shine like virgin gold,

The pangs of hunger assail one as an
eyer-industrious fancy pokes its inquisi-

pantry whence comes the appetizing
odors of sugar frosted doughnuts, ginger
cookies and apple tarts. and eyes grow
wide with desire as the rich brown of
a boiled ham looms up in the offing,
and somehow one knows instinctively
that 1t Is a real country ham which was

Ere long Tom reached the breeches

pair OF shears cut down pair of his
Uncle Jacks trousers to proper size and
made him don them. a proceeding which
tried little Toms pride so sorely that
in fit of rage he retired to that ever
popular refuge of outraged childhood,
the farthest corner under the bed, and
stubbornly declared he wouldn't wear
nobody's second hand breeches" The
ehild's picture shown here is Toms, and
the trousers he has on are the identical
ones which he objected so strenuously to
wearing.

w ould Let Rye Dictate
Pardon for His Client
BY KATIE PARkHiLL,

MANY instances are cited showing Gen Ryes humane
view matters his kind heartedness and, above ALL his
high type honorable manhood Some time since, while
a Democrat occupied the gubernatoral chair, Gen Rye
took in nearby county, in which his client was
charged with killing man. There were mitigating cir
curnsances Rye succeeded in reducing the penalty
to comparatively short term the penitentary Later
a large petition gotten asking for pardon Gen
Rye the nsstence of friends agreed to take 1t to
the governor, but the only argument he would OFFER
that the had always borne good reputation
and that friends wanted his release
The governor looked over 1t and said; Mr. Rye. this
is a strong petition If my memory does not play me
false the prisoner got off very light indeed .
Then laying his hand Mr.. Ryes shoulder he said:
tom, have known you long time and do not believe
you would misplace confidence, You familiar with
this and know whether Justice has been done Con-
slider yourself for the time being governor If In your
judgment this should be freed write the pardon and
/ win sign IT.
No pardon written.

fall Is the arena where the family and
their friends thresh out the pros and cons
of such weighty matters as from time to

in the case.
, The young man promised to do his
best, and Gen. Rye cautioned him II

With two-fold reason for reform,

Wonderful Bull Calf.

"Jim" was an apt pupil, and, besides
being entirely trustworthy under the sad
die, possessed other accomplishments,
such as climbing a ladder, balancing him
self upon a chicken coop and riding one
end of see-saw as skillfully as Tom
rode the other
II is extremely doubtful If Tom ever at
any time owned anything which he was
20 wrapped UP in or for which he felt
such genuine affection as he did for this
big-eyed yearlng, and the event which
brought about the separation of these two
fast friends will not fail to strike a
tender chord within the breast Of any
who ever owned and loved pet

with his uncle, Mai T. G. Morris. of
Charlotte, and arranged to go there to
read law in his uncle's office.
Sells Pet for Clothes.
Naturally one of the first problems to
present itself was the question of suit
able clothes to be worn on the journey
and AFTER ne SnOulo reaCn ms new nome.
Tom had never had store bought
suit OF clothes In his life--he was just a
brig, shy. awkward youngster, who some
how knew intuitively that In the big out
side world there was q place for boy
with true grit and unwavering honesty
Tom didn't have any money; he didn't
have anything to sell to get any money.
Oh, yesl there was old Jim" But how
could he part with "Jim7' Somehow he
had always pictured Jim as going with
him and had even wondered what the
calf would think of things In a strange
sown-he just couldn't sell Jim" He
did, though, and the proceeds went to
purchase the suit he wore to Charlotte
He went out to the lot, and. with arms
around the animals neck, said goodbye
20 'Jim," while great sobs shook his
boyish frame and scalding tears fell upon
the shaggy back of his four-footed play
fellow.
"Jim" had been taught to come at the
can OF his master, and when, after an
absence OF two years. Tom came back

on the street and called him by name.
