mother wore the stern look of van
pushed conqueror, and the only doubt
about it was whether she was gong
TO be the conqueror, for her van
quishment was clearly in sight II she
kept up the fight much longer. The
little spitlire girl was getting another
! lesson in homeology and was grow
ing more irrascible every round. The
brute force was bound to win how
ever, as it always does in combats OF
this nature and finally the child was |
chugged down in station pew, Wiltcd |
and worn and weary, admlrlng her |
mamma with that same sort OF ad- |
miration that comes from having to
live with a vehement democrat when
YOU are 4 gentle republican. Let me
say in conclusion, that my goddess OF
liberty was doubtless tired from a
long Journey and was all out-ot-sorts,
and her little libbess OF goddesty had
TO suffer for it. The second little gid
dess Of liberty looked on as much as
ITO say: Its my turn next, cheer up

III the Hired Man was young
farmer with a pretty wife, and mcr-

| am trying 10 think Of a certain
merchant in Caldwell who would carry
. his commercial affability too far in
this direction and at this writing
cannot locate even just one. on may
, be over-iealous. You ought to know
, that store keepers just must be gen
ial and congenial to every body, ugly
or pretty. Chances are that you are too
sensitive about it. If your vile Is tell
! ing you this, the chances are that she
G has that streak in her that many wo-
G men have, that is, she delights III
! making herself believe that other men
4 men fool themselves i'll this. 1t some
r BODY else has been telling you, and
n your wife has said nothing about it,
9 then YOU might consider the report
Il and act scnsibly about it. If the 'mer-
v chant" is really interfering with your
t. rights, lights and benefits you might
o slip around to him some day and kind
r. " but earnestly state to him that you
=, are thinking about getting sawed
e off shot gun with which to plug a
Ii hole in him big enough for an elephant
to play horse in. OF course you Woulc
not do it yet, but all such fellows are
# the biggest sort of towards, and would

l. The Hired Man has a simply the
d ology He thinks that the first twenty
d questions that will be put to every
t. man at the Judgment bar of God, will
g be about as follows:
S, Did you lie?
l. Why?
Is Did you steal?
IS Why?
w Did you swear?
G. Why?
,e Did you commit adultry?
n Did you want. 10 commit adu'try? !,
n Did YOU confess your entire STOCK
,e Of sin?
S. Did you quit the lot?
10 Did you believe the record God gave
OF of His Son?
as you?
in Was your conversation filthy?
SIS What did you do for your race
he What did you tell men?
I'll What sin did you like best:
ms What was your weakest virtue?
=, Are you surprised to be here?
mr. What would you give TO pass her
ell in safety?

down the real feasible and natu
equipment for retaining all this

ment in the first place, we would ncN
have thought of Arrow Rock 4
Lake Lowell. Something else bcsi(

could have had every acre watered

and Lake Lowell besides, think
entire acreage could have now b.
under water both the North side
the south side and that too, at an
pcnse of $500 per acre. II Uncle 5
