An Exile.

The average citizen imagines that
he lives at home, but he doesn't,
says a Missouri exchange. He gets
up in the morning and puts on his
socks made in New York, shoes
made in Boston, pants made in
Ohio, then slips a pair of Connecti-
cut suspenders over his shoulders.
He dips some water from an Illinois
bucket with a Chicago dipper. and
puts it in an Indiana washpan and
washes his Missouri face with a
cake of St. Louis Soap. He dries
his face with a Rhode Island towel
and reaches his hair with a Yer
mont comb. He takes his Cuban
coffee from an Indiana cup and
saucer, sweetens with sugar from
Louisiana and stirred with a New
York spoon. His knife, fork and
plate are made in the north, and
his table cloth ditto.
He eats a piece of Chicago ham,
fried in Kansas lard, sops his St.
Louis biscuit, seasoned with Boston
and Michigan salt into Louisiana
molasses. He wipes his, mouth with
a Vermont napkin and, seats his
family around Michigan table in
chairs from the same state. His
meal is cooked on St. Louis stove,
with wood cut with a Pittsburg ak
and hauled in an Indiana wagon.
The citizen then puts a Boston
saddle and bride on a Missouri
mule; gets out his pillow and WORKS
in field incumbered, in all proba.
bility, with New York mortgage.
He returns at night and satisfies
his appetite with another imported
meal, fills his Indiana lamp with 1
Pennsylvania oil and lights it with |
a New York match. He then fills
his Illinois pipe with North Carroll
ma tobacco and settles down in a |
Northern chair for a comfortable
smoke. When bedtime comes he
takes down his family Bible, which
was printed in Massachusetts,, reads
chapter, says a prayer composed
in Jerusalem, then retires to bed, |
sleeps under an imported cover
and is kept awake two long hours
by the prowls of his Missouri cats,
which are the only home product
he has on his farm.-Ex. !

Did You


Did you give him a lift? He's a
brother of men.
And bearing about all the burden
he can.
Did you give him a smile? He was
downcast and blue.
And the smile would have helped
him to battle il through.
Did you give him your hand? He
was slipping down hill,
And the world, so | fancied, was
using him ill.
Did you give him a word? Did YOU
show him the road,
Or did you just let him 90 on with
his load?
Do you know what it means to be
losing the fight.
Wnen lit Just in time might set
everything right?
Do you know what it means-iust
a clasp of a hand,
When a mans borne about all a
man ought to stand?
Did you ask what it was-why the
quivering lip?
Why the half suppressed sob and
the scalding tears drip?
Were you brother of his when the
time came of need?
Did you offer to help him or didn't
you heed?
