Like a lot of oth- er folk, he had his good points, but was evidently much misunder- stood. Every man has a hobby, and that of James Rey- nolds related to the poor and needy. He had a theory Residence Phone (not quite his own) that the execution 240 Black of the poor, by some painless method, DR. J. Q. SCARBOROUGH, would settle forever the whole ques- CHIROPRACTOR tion of pauperism. If poverty were made a crime, pun- ishable with death, a poor person would socon become a rarity. Such was his idea. But as he found that the world, however anxious it might be to adopt such a drastic measure, was not yet quite ready to do so, he carefully con- sidered other means. Being strictly a theorist, he gave away nothing to the distressed, be- cause he looked upon indiscriminate charity as a huge mistake, and con- Lady in Attendance Consultation Free Office in Dyches Building Between Park and Auditorium Residence phone, 278 Biack.

When a hungry widow with eight or nine children called upon him, he would give them all 8 warm welcome, take down a big book, enter their names, ages, diseases, pedigree, etc.; express the greatest sympathy; warn them against extravagance, and the pomps and vanities of this wicked world; then promise the fullest inves- tigation. Mr. Reynolds was just as hearty in receiving a call from the ordinary tramp of the day. Such a one would be invited to a seat by the stove, and his history, secured by means of much questioning, would be entered into one of the books. The caller would be asked for his views on the tariff, trusts, single tax, etc. After keeping the poor fellow on the rack until every tavern had been closed, Mr. Reynolds would send him out in the cold world, moneyless. Reynolds, assisted by his wife, formed a “Girls Club,” and got the members to practice scrubbing, sewing and other household pleasures, at his own home. He took down their names, etc, etc, and sent them away with his blessing. But this organization was short-lived. One day there called at the Rey- nolds homestead a respectably dressed man, selling collar buttons. He was greeted by the owner as though he were a long-lost brother, and seated in one of the easiest chairs. Mr. Reynolds got down to the sev- enteenth volume of the ‘Mendicant Register,” and asked the weary trav- Attorney-at-Law Van Huss Bldg. Lakeland, Fla EPPES TUCKER, JR.

He plainly told his host that it was not the year for taking the census, intimating strongly, in eddly shaped sentences, that he was there entirely in the shirt-fastening inter- est. Mr, Reynolds explained, by way of reply, that only the previous day he had bought no less than three collar buttons at the shop, which would last him for some months to come, and that his wife did not use such things. He then started’ in to compare the present times with the days of the old Greeks and Romans, when they fastened their shirts with rope. At this the collar button vendor got vexed and saw that he had been merely the victim of statistics. His sense of humor being dull, he forthwith proceeded to handle “Broth- er” Reynolds rather roughly. Having placed the statistician on the floor, he sat on him, took away his watch and other valuables, and, after kicking the dog, departed. In time the editor of the “Mendi- cant Register” came to himself. Af- ter adjusting his clothing he sat down to think things over. Had he made a mistake? Was it true that his efforts to learn all about the poor—their troubles, their views and their aims—had been in vain? The pugilistic collar-button sales- man had told him some plain truths, and had brought them right home in a rather unpleasant manner. As a result of a long, serious “think,” Reynolds finally came to the conclusion that he would let the poor Office Phone 138; Residence 91 Black l D. O. Rogers Edwin Spencer.
