Here comes young fellow to the
N fIlreQ Man and says ne is not po1no
ii TO get married Tor TWO good reasons:
y One IS, he loves ms mother too well
TO allow any otner woman to come
INTO his heart, and the other reason IS
Il On, gee. what would l do II / should
II get Wlte like the most OF these we
see. Inns young man appears to me
1 to DC pretty well balanced, too, but he
i Is certainly oil the rails in these two
Y ideas. When | hear a Young fellow
Il telling that he is AFRAID to get married
lest he get stung, 1t makes me think
that he mas no head at all; that the
thing he wears his hat on is simply his
3 neck grown up, hardened some and
grown over with hair. Why, OF
course, 1t behooves a fellow to be
sensible In selecting his wi1e and make
n the best OF that one legitimate choice,
4 but hang these fellows that are all the
VI time SO cautious they are afraid to
put their loot on a cast iron bull dog
A on the lawn. like to see a young
& fellow love his mother too. lust last
night l dreamed that | saw my dead
Il mother in heaven and she was carry
ing little box OF her own manutac-
tured salve and was going over to
4 apply it to a bruise a boy had got
4 when limb on the tree OF life gave
q way with him. / won't take a back
seat Tor any man.. white or red or
brown, when it comes to my love for
our mothers, but shucks, what's the
matter with a young fellows head
when he gets it shipped up that his is
y the last OF good mothers. His sweet
WI ID bar
children will be telling later how
4 much they love their mother. Then,
again, this young fellow may stand
up three thousand Canyon county
@WlVes i'll one procession and he will

Z OF them may need their alignment

III A man has asked me what | think
about the hereafter. We have got to
have hereafter, for things don't al
ways even up here. Teach a boy some
evil and then later | get saved and
sweep into the presence of the King
invisible and lnvincible, and begin to
y look for the robe and crown, when
some one pulls my shroud tail and
says don't get IN hurry Pete, Bobby
!. Illler is still battling with the evil
you taught him on earth and your
4 case is taken under advlSement until
we see how Bobby gets through. If
he makes it alright,your battle is fav-
orable, but then there is Bessie and
Mary and Della and Dora. You just
take this card and report to the big
angel over yonder with the seersucker
, suit on and he will put you to work
\ around here some where until about
dozen of your old chums come in
and report Yes, there's got to be a
Hereafter.
1t often happens that those of us
who start good thing must wait until
we die before people will fall in with
us. The first set of men who favored
Jesus Christ paid dearly for their
whistle. Paul got away with it good
while, but finally Nero cut his head
off in Rome. Judge stood out long
time, but at length he was shot to
death with arrows. Barnabas was
] stoned to death at Salonica. Peter
! was crucified at Rome with his head
4 down. At the last hour he talked
them into putting his head down,
"for," he said, 81 am not worthy to ap-
pear on the cross in the position
of my Master" Matthew was run
through by sword in distant city
of ETHIOPIA. Mark was dragged
through the city of Alexandria and
1 died while enduring that cruelty. Luke
in the classic land of Greece, was
seized by enraged men who could not
stand his teaching, and hanged upon
an olive tree. John was thrown into
caldron of boiling oil, was rescued
/ by an angel, afterwards demonstrated
with but owing to his obstinacy was
banished to the isle of Patmos where
! a crow could not make a living, and
there wrote Revelations. Bartholo-
new was flayed alive. James the
greater was beheaded in Jerusalem
and James the less was thrown from
lofty pinnacle of the emple and then
/ beaten to death with fulled's club.
Andrew bound to cross, whence he
preached to his assassins until he died,
Thomas was run through the body
with a lance at Coromandel, in the
East Indies. What does a preacher
want to whine around about if he does
have sore head or two in his organi-
cation. Brace up fellows and let us
have hot shot while you can give us
shot at all, the day will come when
another will stand in your pulpit and
it is little thanks you will get from
us then for giving us sorghum and
waffles all the time. We need a roast

s. old testament where Nebuchadnezzar,
king of Babylon, got to showing his
oats a little too much and God told
him where to head in. but still he
