PIPE DREAMS OF CITY MAN
Raising Spuds at One Dollar a Rushel
Certainly Looks Good to Us,
BY Heckl

When | am old and bent and worn,
with hair all gray and pants all torn,
and town has grown too swift for me,
and in my backs a miseree, I'll take
my bundle meath my arm and go and
settle on a farm, and In the spring
and in the mud each square foot
will plant spud, then with a nice
self-starting hoe I'll coax the lowly
spud to grow, as spuds were never
coaXed before, and they shall Irvine
about my door, and shall drink up
the morning dew, and shade the wind
ing avenue that sort of turns and
twists and crawls to get to my an
cestral halls.
And paris green by pecks I'll lug
to put on each pertater bug. I'll keep
the weeds out of the rows, and when
a hot wind comes and blows I'll
sprinkle each one from a can and sit
beside it with a fan until the danger
has gone by; will not let it wilt and
die.
And when dead leaves are earth
ward tossed and when norther
threatens frost I'll get cute little
union suits to put upon the spuddish
beauts. shall know each last spud
by name and pet each one and make
1t tame; so that when autumn comes
apace I'll go and open UP my face
beside the bars and call each spud by
name, and it shall leave the mud, and
leave the vine, and leave the tree,
when my call comes, and follow me.
And l shall hike away to town and
where the roads go winding down the
spuds shall follow me, and go where
hungry men rush to and fro in search
OF spuds, and they shall pay q PUNK
peck for spuds that day, and l shall
get wad of kale as big as any cotton
bale. That's what I'll do when l am
old and when my blood is getting cold.
think I'll do 1t, anyhow; but I've not
time to start it now.-Judd Lewis, in
Houston Post.

WOMAN'S DRESS NOT MODERN
Recently Discovered Drawings Prove
That Dame Fashion Has Reigned
for Quite a Lengthy Period.

Rock drawings recently laid bare In
the Spanish peninsula have discovered
to us a very interesting period of pre-
historic man. From a lecture recent
ly delivered in London by Sir Arthur
Evans Of the British Archaeological as
sociation it appears that palaeolithic
woman was not only dressed, but most
gracefully. AT Cogul the drawings in
dictate that the sacred dance was per-
formed by women, clad from the waist
downward in well-cut gowns, whilst
In the rock shelter of Alpera the dress
of the same sl1irted ladies is supple
mented by thin flying sashes. In the
paintings at Cueva de la Viege women
are seen with still longer gowns ris-
ing to their bosoms, their shoulders
yelled in scarfs.
Thus we are astonished to find that
fashion has a much longer history
than has been hitherto believed.
These recent discoveries are the
more interesting because hitherto
amongst a wealth of wonderfully
drawn animals and sign writings the
human figure has been extremely rare
in European discoveries of the kind,
and it is reassuring to know that our
predecessors at a period even as re-
mote as this were not without the
charm and comfort Of clothes, and
that woman was then, as now, a pi-
oneer in the great and enthralling arts
of dress and adornment.

Vigilance Committee.

The vigilance committee of colonial
times an unauthorized, loosely con-
nected body Of citizens representing
public opinion, was formed in the 10
American colonies Immediately pre-
ceding the revolution. It's object pri-
marily was to enforce the agreement
not to use British products, but later
the scope was enlarged, investigation
being made as to suspected persons
loyalty to the American cause and
punishment being melted out to Tories.
At first the activities were secret.
The participants in the Boston "tea
party" were vigilance committeeman.
Where this sub rosa movement orig
mated is hard to determine; nearly ev-
cry community had its vigilance COM
mittee.-Philadelph Ledger.

Catarrh should not be neglected or
