The two hardy Democratic campaign- ers were doing southern California one | election time and got into the country at the back door of Los Angeles. One night they reached & farmhouse where they had expected to find lodgings. The farmer had nothing but two arm- chairs. Foote and English pleaded for | beds—cots, trundle beds, anything that looked like a bed. Nothing doing. | The campaigners, like Napoleon or Grant or like Washington at Valley Forge, slept in their chairs. Wkhen the first advance agents of | dawn scudded out of the west, the poli- ticians laboriously got out of their chairs and went out for fresh air. They met the old farme lking the cow | with the ¢rompled horn. “Do you knew, gentlemen.” he s\id i blandly and without contrition, *“yon | could have hid a bed. after alt? 1 wag expecting two Demacratic orators here last night and saved the beds for then, but sowehow or other they tever show- ed up. dang "ein."—San Franeisco Cail ) WSS : Candidate | | or WRIGHT Sheriff, Republ can e ,(3‘[ N \\ &L \I ANN, Candidaw: For Shenff, Repoblican ' N E AT i at el Fo- RIS Samoa’s Tolaug Man Samoa’s talking m.x._ or tolafall, fa @ character. All the affairs. of state of the village in which he holds offica * are carried upon his shoulders. In or- dinary he is the chief adviser, per- suader, convincer and restrainer of the leading chiefs. Having the gift of elo quence, he makes the most of it. He enjoys. immunity from many things. He cannot be spoken of in ordinary terms. . If it should be necessary to speak of his eyes or his mouth or his limbs, special honorable words mast be used, words which attach to him elone and have never been applied to the personal parts of ordinary mer. As he stands to deliver his soft, per- suasive, mellifiuous oratory, with staff of office in his hand, any one can see that he is a man of great importance, or if this is not apparent from his at- titude it may be gathered from the at- tention paid to his utterances by gray haired chiefs and by youth and maid- ens. If the talking man is a clever fellow and understands his business, he is the chief ruling power im his tribe, although the nominal headship B always vested in a chief or patri- archal figurehead. How Wyckoff Was Revealed. The late Professor Walter A. Wyck- off of Princeton had a passion for knowledge at first hand and will be best remembered as the college pro- fessor who studied labor conditions by becoming himself a laborer. Starting in 1891 in Connecticut with no money and with a sult of overalls, he worked his way through nearly every state I the Unlon after the fashion of the floating laborers of this country, so many of whom ultimately become tramps. Wherever there was a possi- “bility of work he applied for it, wheth- er it were digging ditches, wrecking houses or factory .work. For awhile his incognito usually werked well, but a8 soon as his fellow laborers saw him at table they at once began to suspect bim. His manner of eating, hs way of holding knife and fork, at once set them speculating. Once he was seen drinking tea at a fellow laborers house in Chicago. He lifted the saucer from the table, held It in his hand and forgot himself so far as to drink with- out noise. *I knowed then,” his host afterward sald, “that he was a sweR masquerading.”—Harper's Weekly. The Most Beautiful -Flag. In a village school in the Acadian region of Nova Beotia the young lady teacher, who was from a portion of ‘Canada more remote from the United States than the section she was MW, was on ome occasion preparing for a lttle celebration of empire day. Call- ing one of the boys, she gave him a colr and sald to him: “Take this, please, and go out and get us the prettiest flag you can find.” She had no idea, of course, of his procuring anything else than a British flag, and her astonishment was great, therefore, when the boy came back with a small edition of the stars and stripes. “YWhat have you there?’ the teacher asked sharply. “Did you suppose I sent you for anything else than the flag of your country?”’ “Why,” answered the boy, “you teld me to get the prettiest flag I could find, and there was nothing else 8o pretty as this!” The boy’s judgment was unpreju- :diced, at any rate, for he was a Cana- dian. Oh, Wait Till He Returas. “Why, my dear,” exclaimed the good friend on finding Mrs. Newed in floods | of tears. “what s the matter?’ The young wife wiped her eyes and tried to compose herself and be in~ | humanly calm. “Well,” she began, with folded hands. “you know John is away for a week.” *Yes, dear.” helped the lady friend. “Well. he writes to me regulary, and in his—his last letter he tells me { “But that is nothing for you to cry | about!" exclaimed the good friend. ! “Yes, it Is cried Mrs. Newed, | hursting into tears afresh, “be-because ! . took my picture out of his ba-bag be- ! before he started ju-just for a jo-joke and put ene of mo-mo-mother’s In its prace?’ Why They Don’t Desert. “Instances of desertion from the .army In Mexico are very rare and for . the best of reasons.”” said Senor Jose + de Minaldez of Nueva Leon. “The reason lies in the almost sure capture of the fugitive and the certain- ty that he will get not one but numer- ous floggings on his bare back. These lashings are done in the presence of the comrades of the deserter, and when the men see how great is the suffering of the miserable wretch who tried in vain to quit his military obligations they are forced to conclude that it is better to stick to the army than to un- dergo such a terrible ordeal.”—Balti- more American. Audiences Have Changed. “They don’t write comic operas like they used to,” said Mr. Stormington Barnes. “They used to have jokes then that made people laugh.” “Yes,” answered the manager, *“but you must remember that in those days they had audiences who could he made to laugh.”—Memphis Commercial Ap- peal. _ Not Deluded. “Do you want employment?” *Lady,” answered Plodding Pete. “you means well, but you can’t make work sound any more invitin’ by usin’ | words of three syllables.”—Washing- ton Star.
