me show you my side of the quarrel,

every word of what L tell you of
Wanda and myself. She and 1 were

She was right, Cora. She went away

COULD HE OR NOT?
ADVERTISEMENT

A certain candidate, SO it is said, was
making a speech to a crowd of farmers,
in which he told his hearers that he was
born and reared upon the farm. That
as a boy back in Kentucky, he fed the
horses and pigs, drove team Of oxen,
split rails, cleared land, plowed and hoed
in the field, worked in the garden and
had worked in the harvest fields. In
closing he said: "Fellow citizens, tell
me if you please, is there anything on
the farm that I cannot do?" There was
profound silence, until small voice,
emanating from the rear of the house
was heard with the question: Can you
lay an egg?" 1t is said that the meeting
adjourned abruptly-La. Democrat.
