BV INNOCENCE ABROAD *
I bave tramped the streets of W'ax
ahachie, bated my delicate frame
mround stoves this cold weather since
Christmas till I am tired. Too Lunch
cold weatber and too much dry weath
er to suit the farmers and this acostle.
I thought last summer daring thai hot
dry spell that I was too far south and
now it looks litre I am too far north,
but we most not complain at the
weather; the fact is, a man ought not
to stop long enough to complain, but
do oar dutv and trust to a kind and
good providence for results and all
will be well with us My better half
! owns one of the finest milk cows in
VVasahscbie and during this long cold
> *peil, she bss tsoubt me to churn,
|c«-rrht!g! cerohug!' The fact is I
Kincier uke the work, au<i then eke
' brags on me when I work faithful and
make a good boy out of myself. Tne
good worn» η of the land, God bless
I them, need more help from we men
than tbey usually get. When my
wife reproves me for not doing more
! about the house. I teil her a fellow
! who aets the hens and prck^too mucn
about the house is n> good at aov
thing else, but we ought to cut the
wood, mate tires and do a thousand
οι h» r little things to help our good
wi»es, that, I am afraid, a grrat many
of us tail to do. As »iil Arp says. I
have beeu ruminating about this bus
iness i-ince my wife put nie to churn
ing and I myself for one of these de
linquent felluws. In end to turn over
a ne» leaf and mske mjself a little
useful and not quite » j ornementât a'
I have heretofore bven. This cold
weather coo'inues and to an old grip
py case it is haid on him and I re
marked t_> a delicate w akly candi
date this wt-t-k that all of his kind in i
the race for tne different offices wh«
liable to get left tbie year. Tbie cold
disagreeable freezing weather no del
icately constituted man can stand to
face it to nucit the voter* and to the
strong, robust candiuares. this is all
right for him, just gives him a good
appetite. I outcberen that turkey
and devoured him long ago, and this
cold sp«dl I also butchered a fat pig
my better half bad been feeding, and
what I am doing to him is a plenty,
but soon that will all be gone and
then the neighbor* do get migtity
tired bringing in thing* when I stay at
home so long as 1 have this time.
