HER NAME NOT POLLY TICKS.
During the late campaign an Illinois
candidate for the legislature was driv-
ing through the country, seeking
votes among the farmers, when he
met a young man in farmer's garb,
walking by the roadside.
Having in mind a prospective vote,
he stopped his horse, and saluting him
in a familiar manner, inquired:
"Are you paying any attention to
politics nowadays?"
The young man stopped, looked at
him suspiciously, and drawled out:
"No, stranger; that don't happen to
be my gal's name; but ef it was, I
wouldn't think It was any of your
durned business."
This ended the interview, as well
as the prospect.—Judge.

FARMING IN
THE SOUTH
Tribute to the Hog.
Tho hog occupies a conspicious
place in the annals of the American
farmer. The more he is studied the
more he is appreciated. And the
more he is appreciated the more he
is cultivated. A writer in the Ne-
braska Express, Mr. A. H. Kidd, pays
him the following tribute:
"Take off your hat to his lordship,
the Hog. There is none more worthy
our obeisance than he. Though of
lowly origin, he is the king of the
mighty West. Though by the inexor-
able decree of fate he is doomed to a
life of confinement and self-denial,
yet he gives up his life that his
captors may wax fat and inherit the
earth. Such an example of self-
sacrifice for the public good is rarely
to be found. Sprung from a race that
was despised and reviled by all men,
yet by his innate worth and his
philanthropic deeds, he has made for
himself an honored place among the
benefactors of the human race. He
enters the homes of the rich and the
poor with the same lordly demeanor,
fully confident that his presence is
welcome, and his absence greatly to
be deplored.
"Men of all nations struggle with
each other for the privilege of mak-
ing him his business partner, and the
man with whom he enters into busi-
ness alliance is envied by his neigh-
bors while he yearly adds to the size
of his bank account, and gathers in
the surrounding farm lands. He is
the greatest mortgage lifter and the
unsurpassed happiness producer.
"Give him but a comfortable place
in which to roam, a frugal meal of
maize and slop, a bubbling spring to
quench his thirst, and he becomes at
9nce your truest friend in time of
adversity. Kings have been crowned,
have strutted their brief time upon
the 6tage, have died, been buried and
forgotten, but his lordship, the Hog,
reigns on forever. Each year extends
the boundaries of his dominion, and
strengthens the fealty of his subjects.
Cotton may be king of the miasmatic
regions in the South; rice may be
queen- of the land of the alligator and
the moccasin snake; the gentle cow
may reign o'er the rolling acres of the
dreary East; the horse may lord it
over the land where the blue grass
grows and the moonshiner hides;
wheat may be king of the land where
the blizzards blow and the torrents
fall; but the king of the broad and
the sweeping West, the land of sun-
shine and happiness, of fair women
and brave men, of peace and content-
ment, of plenty and prosperity, ie his
lordship, the HOg. Take off your hat
to the king. Long live the king."
LESSON FOR SOUVENIR FIEND.
Captain'a Remarkable Aetlen Designed
"to Avoid Scandal."
"On the slow and cheap ships," said
a purser, "the souvenir thief does no
harm; but on a famous liner like the
Ruritania, where records are broken
and tip-top prices abound, the amount
of stuff that disappears is shocking. .
"Only things with the boat's name
on go—champagne glasses, inkwells,
curling tongs, buttonhooks and so
forth. And what are we to do about
it?
"We had an American peeress aboard
last voyage. The day we reached New
Tork a stewardess eame to me and
said:
'"Oh, Mr. Meet, I just seen Lady
Blank's cabin trunk, and she's taken
two of our finest ailver inkwells.'
"Here was a quandary, eh? The cap-
tain was called in, and he settled the
matter In the unsatisfactory way such
things are usually settled.
" 'We must teach Lady Blank a les-
son,' he growled. 'At the same time
scandal must be avoided.' He thought
a moment, then said to the stew-
ardess: 'Take one of the inkwells
and leave the other. That'll show
her!'"
V
ASKED MUCH IN SHORT PRAYER.
Remarkable Invocation of Scotch
Minister, Reported by Magazine.
"O Lord, we approach thee this
mornln' In the attitude o' prayer, and
likewise o' complaint. When we cam'
tae the lan' o' C.inady we expected tae
fin* a lan' flowin' wi' milk and honey,
but instead o' that we foun' a lan'
peopled wi' ungodly Irish. O Lord, in
thy great mercy, drive them tae the
uttermost pairts o' Canady; mak'
them hewers o' wood and drawers o*
watter; gie them *ae emoluments; gie
them nae place o' abode; n'er mak'
them magistrates or rulers among thy
people.
"But if ye hae any favors to bestow,
or any guid lan' tae gie awa,' gie it
tae thine ain, thy peculiar people, the
Scots. Mak' them members o' parlia-
ment an' magistrates an' rulers among
thy people. An' as for the Irish, tak'
them by the heels an' shak' them ower
the mouth o' hell, but dinna let them
fa' in, and a' the glory shall be thine.
Amjin.'*—Success Magazine.
Sounds Queer.
"Yes," said the returned tourist,
"over in England the sole fish is con-
sidered a great delicacy."
"But suppose one couldn't eat a
whole sole?" spoke up his friend.
"In that case, I suppose, you would
order up a half-sole."
"Half-sole? Great Scott! If I heard
that order I'd think I was in a shoe
shop Instead of a restaurant."—ChS
