He Had Qualified.

A stranger in an Indiana village
thought he might improve the time by
attending service in the local church.
At the conclusion of a lengthy talk,
the minister announced that he should
like to meet the Board. The stranger,
in company with several other persons,
proceeded to walk to the front of the
church. The pastor, thinking there
must be some misunderstanding, said
to him: 81 believe, sir, YOU are mis-
taken. This is just to be meeting of
the Board. -
"Wen,' replied the visitor, 81

IN eastern Kansas there are only
two classes of potato-pickers who
can stay in the fields all day-the
farmers own family. who've got to
stay; and the hoboes, who drift in
when wages are high. Their skins,
not being softened by the foolish lux
ury of baths. stand the heat all right.
In early summer their business is
picking up potatoes in Kansas; in
later summer they go north to pick
the later potatoes; then east to pick
apples in the fall; and in winter to
Chicago or New York. 1t was one of
these who hurt his hand picking up
his favorite brand of cigar last win
ter. Yes; just as he went to reach
for it. the original owner Of it stepped
on his thumb.

Their Business

ONE of the best little jobs
of picking up is holding
the train of George Rex I'M
perator, Defender of the
Faith. etc. 1t looks easy
enough-just pulling on the
reins a bit when his Majesty
canters too fast. and giving
him one quick tug on the
right when you want him to
gee and one on the left when
he ought to ha1p. But not
any old kid can get the job.
Not by a long shot. For one
thing. you've got to be a
direct descendant OF William
the Conqueror. There aren't
many of those in England.
so it's easy to pick the right
boy.
