THE COUNTRY EDITOR.
"Kalumity" Bonner, of Austin,
in a recent issue of his Harpoon,
had this to say of the Country
Editor:
Every country editor on leav-
ing this vale of tears will doubt-
less have an immortal crown and
a harp of from Iimm) to 15 M)
strings. Unless he does, Saint
Peter will certainly overlook a
bet. Who on earth ever succeeds
in distributing so much joy and
happiness to humanity as tin*
country editor? He will take up
for you even when he knows
your subscription is not paid
ahead.
When your freckled faced
daughter marries that worthless
cross-eyed Bill Stobbs, don't the
editor say that she is the "most
beautiful, talented and popular
young lady in the country," and
that "Colonel Stobbs is without
doubt the rising young man of
the hour," and that "in all prob-
ability he will yet be heard from
in the councils of the nation?"
Of course it's alia lie. and every-
body else knows it. but don't it
make you feel good? When you
go to the office owing him for
four years' subscription and he
^compromises for two and takes
- it out in butter of the Methuselah
brand, and in the next issue you
see a personal which says:
'Our sanctum was honored last
week by a visit from Colonel
Hiram Shortchange, who left
four big silver cartwheels to be
credued to his subscription,"
(Mjt it make you • •.'! joyful,
although you knew he was lying
like a politician? And when you
die, still owtnjr him for ran
won't you feel more resigned
to your late when you realize
that the next issue of the "Week-
ly Flatbroke" will contain n col-
umn or two of brilliant editorial
comment on the nobility of
your past life, your honesty,
integrity, your Christian charac-
ter. and wind up with the assu-
rance that when the paper
went to press you were strolling
through the golden streets taking
in the sights? That's the life-
work of a country editor, and
when you read this, have pity on
the good-natured distributor of
human happiness, send him that
back subscription, for the Lord's
sake, and it will make him so hap-
py he won't feel bad about you
being a "real, first-class fellow."

Sunday School, of Texas, conven-
ed at San Antonio Tuesday, with

WOODMAN PIC NIC.
Constable Guy. of Cedar Creek,
reports extensive preparations
under way for the Woodman Pic-

dial invitation is extended the

ising all a fine dinner and a pleas-
ant time. Even candidates, he
