Shakespeare, who, it wil] be remem- | §¢ate Should Encourage Such Thefts. bered, was such a popular writer and syndicate contributor a couple of hundred years or so ago, was greatly addicted to the ase of the word “ho.” At one place in his book he says, “‘what noise is this, ho?" clearly in- dicating that he had charge of a gang of man and had difficulty in keeping them at work, Another place he becomes even more emphatic and | should not be punished. Quite, he cries out, “ho, ho, ho! \mlzms, cowards!’ and so forth. The urthog- raphy of the word has changed some- what since Col. Shakespeare's time, but Brander Matthews told your cor- respondent one day that there was no ! doubt he meant the Florida implement. popular south A Sad Story From Xissimmee. F'SKe JOh“son! The hoe, crdinarily, and in its commonest form, congists of a thin blade more or less dull, dull, set transversely in the end of 2 long rod or handle. It is used for digging out weeds and loosening up the earth around plants and flowers. A sad story comes from Kissimmee. An aged lady there was hoeing in the potato field in her bare feet when she saw what she believed to be a toad. She gave it a terrific whack and was astounded to discover al- most instantly that she had chop- ped off her big toe, which had be- come partially hidden in the dirt. Up in the Carolinas and in many mhn-r southern States the negroes reverence the hoe, as is well estab- the fact that they have and the garden con- Dy and many a time [while standing in his templating the wenders of vegetable lite, has been accosted with there!
