Labors Compensation
After all said LTooJ Ster
ling Morton this morning as he
seated himself hear theAnanias
a cord of green elm to apply on
subscription says the Washington
News the life of the hired man is
not entirely devoid of pleasnre It
is certainly a luxury to have such
an appetite as he carries abont with
him Didyon ever see a real live
contracts his powers in this line
At dinnertime for instance he
comes blithely up from the swelte1
ing field washes his face at the
horse trough by the well and site
downUo the table with bis shirt-
sleeves rolled np to his elbows His
eyes his mouth his every motion
speak of a consuming and ungover-
nable hnugej and the way he sails
in when time is called is a cautiou
to dune museum actors The bill
of tare generally comprises salt
pork and boiled potatoes and he
eats the pork and sloshes a lot of
gravy over the potatoes and de
vQiirs abont a bushel of them
He works hard and ho wouldnt
know indigestion if he met it on
the road wearing a siring of bells
at cupper lie is ravenous Hgain and
eats more salt pork and potatoes
liejsleeps like a petrified man and
in tiie mominghe finds moro suit
pork and potatoes on the table and
lie eneorapasses thtni around abont
and feels like a new new man Oh
I tell yon continued Mr Morton
vith emotion life cannot be who
ly a fuiWcftba man who has an ap-
petite that age cuinot wither nor
custom stale Better to be a hired
man ht12 a month and he > able to
digest a hair mattress than to be
the president of a railway company

familiarity with distress after eat

A learned scientist says that
while the human race is gaining in
brains itis losing in beauty Thats
the result of patent medicines

their mirror gives em convulsions
are always yanked irom the brink
of the grave by a patent panacea
and their pictures put in the paper
to show the devil may be cheated
