It was a gloomy day at the great pork
packlng establishment of Armour & Co.
A leaden sky overhung the city and a
dense fog draped the gigantic town of
Chicago in a misty, ttarful veil that
dampen? d the eplrus of men and j
}i spondeney ?ras everywhere, and
the Bwino of the establishment were in
no humor to crack jokes. They were
dying by tho hundreds every hour, and
an Incessant, never? tool floated
out on the air as the victims went by
scorcea to their death. TbOM who
awatted their turns at the dreadful i
were huddl d rh mly tagether, und as
tie y beard the shrieks of lr.? rids and
ves th'-ir h. arts stood still within
them and their spirits sank to the lowest
ebb. It was no Joke with thons. Each

on the natty kinks in the tails of their
aristocratie friends. Jt w.is aa hour of

and agttatiofl a tima f??r soLer
thought and spirited curisolutlon.
Some great individual always arise? In
the face of adversity and do SB ?omethiug
which entitles him to get his name in
the papers. It was so on thi? occasion.
Just a? the glorm ?eemed gloomiest and

a huge brunette hog, with a conspicuous
bay window and a pair of hams which
him look as if he wore a bustle,
aros?. t?i a .jm ?tlon of pejsonal privilege,
and asked an audience of kid moribund
companions. As death was near at baa?
the swinish < oncluded thej
couldn't be much Injured by lending hin
an ear, and so the speaker eras allow*
to " -.': ot 'iff his gnout" say ii
hog partance, which means the ?am?
thlnp as "shunting off Otto's Up."
Th? runette In .?r. with the bay
window, thanked his bearers with grarlt*
and dignity, and then Incidentally re?
marked that this honor was wholly tin
ex; eted to him. He n?-xt quoted the
following Latin, which he had picked ur.
in a i i ... lim
"Morlturl te salutant."
Am his auditors heard Mm. they be

of that future life which awaits you, the

the I scorns that are
i for you, who now ?brink from a

wash. Kaih.-r I k eternity with

these priceless comforts and luxuries."
And the audience, diminished every
moment by those especially segregated
for Imm?diate destruction, listened with
rapt attention, and at the mention of the
swill and SCOrUS many actually
chuckled. Nothing more pleases s
than the thought of food. They are like
in this respect. Truly, it was a
; ful picture which the sp
d and at Brat many thought that
nothing appeared to bs lacking ln this
sweet pig heaven which tha orator pic?
tured. Hut finally one old hog who
Invariably made, himself dlaagroeabls on
all occasions determined to trip the huge
brunette and to knock his sketches of
porcine Elysium Into a SOI kl ? hat.

The words of the disagreeable hog had
i marked effect upon the audience. In
belr thoughts about the future food
which awaited tlmm th. f ha I for a mo
nent overlooked that other essential to
loggish beautitudi?mud. All eye? were
urned upon the brunette spokesman, to
lie could give comfort in thia par

But ihn brunette hog did not ?how the
