THE HIRED MAN
One time Death caiÄc along the
highway and met a citizen and said
lie was going to take twenty persons
from that city. In six months Death
was leaving the city whereupon he
met the citizen he had talked with be
töre. The citizen upbraided Death for
taking five times as many people as
lie said he would when he first en
tered the city. "Indeed," said Death
"I only took the twenty I was sent |
for and the others died because they j
were afraid of me." One time Death
was traveling'along the road when he
met a doctor in his big car racing like
furv to see a very sick man. The doc
tor, recognizing Death, checked up and
asked him to ride with him. "No,
indeed," replied Death, "you go on
and do your best and I will see the
gentleman later."
One day Death got his foot hung in
the frog on a railroad track and was
having a time liberating himself. A
switchman came along at the time and
promised Death he would let him out
of the predicament just as the fast
mail rounded the curve half a mile
away providing he would never use
that means of taking another switch
man from his wife and babes. Death
proposed a compromise stating that he
would guarantee that particular
switchman that he would never die
with his foot hung in a railroad frog
if he would give death a little lift
before the then past-du c fast mail
came over the frog. The switchman
took a bar and liberated Death just
as the fast mail came by, but in his
excitement he let th e bar fall on the
rail. The engine struck it, where
upon it was thrown^ mortally wound
ing the switchman. As he was dying.
Death upbraided him for being so
careless as to thus endanger his life
*fter having so recently escaped him.
"Then," said Death, "when any thing
tells you you will be let off, you may
rest assured that that is not T."
. One time Death came along where
a lady was sprinkling her flowers. He
sai'l to himself that that lady was en
gaged in a very delightful service, but
that she did not know why one blos
som is red and another white or blue.
"However," saîd Death, "both colors
look well on the coffin." The ladv
went on watering the flower beds, all
unconscious of her distinguished visi
tor. That evening she casually asked
lier little girl how far Death is from
us at all times. Th e little girl said it
was not a question of how close or
how far he was from us, but why was
it that he waited until a certain time
to sting ns. Death remarked, "I won

young lady was teaching school and
touched her beautiful cheek with his

they kept engagement rings and found
where her's had been taken out. He
then went a hundred miles away and
blew in the face of a fine young man.
He then went to the storehouse of
sleep and fever and brought a- small
quantity of paint and threw it over
the frail body in its bed, and said "this
is the last." Death then whispered
to Christ and told him what he had
done and the Christ said "do what
you please and when you please and
as well as you please, for I have her
heart safe within my heart." The
calm sweet smile lighted up where the
hectic flush had been, the invisible
choir in heaven sang her song for her
and Death made her fall into the
calmest sort of a dreamless sleep.
—o—
Death came along one time where
people were being baptized in a river
and counted as many as fifty who
were ready for the act. The ministers
were telling the people how wise they
were to come and get rid of their
sins. Death stood for a moment and
watched the transactions as one after
another was baptized. Finally he said
to himself so loud that some almost
heard him "I wonder if these people
suppose that I will not touch them
just the same after they are baptized
as before? It is not I that shall have no
power over them, but it is my running
mate, Second Death, that must now
leave them alone if they mean real
business in this act." He then went
a mile down the lane and kissed a
young lady on the cheek and re
marked "whether baptized I know not,
but T certainly do know that heaven
has none fairer."
Death came along one tim c and told
a sister that he wanted her younger
brother. She remonstrated with Death
and argued that it was impossible that
her brother must die. Death told her
he only wanted one in that family
and that if she would go he would
leave her brother. The girl told Death
to look over his instructions _ once
more and se c whether it said simply
get one out of the family, or did it
tell him to take her brother, for said
she, it would be a pity for you who
have always been so unerring to now
so carelessly read your instructions as
to takp some one on general princi
ples when it was really the brother
who had b<¥n definitely sent for.
Death said "I observe that you are a
very careful person and I should
reaily dislike to take vou now, but
you can sec for yourself that my in
structions tell me to take "any one" in
this family. The girl colored with
fright and quickly replied "my broth
er's name is Andy Stone, don t you
see how a little error like that could
occur?"
One time Death came along where
a teamster was trying to replace a
spoke in his wagon wheel. "Why did
that particular spoke break, and not
another." asked the distinguished visi
tor The teamster did not look up
from his work to discover whose voice
it was, but replied, "that is a fool
question." Death replied that it might
he a fool question, but that a wise
answer would be expected. The re
pairer did not look up, but said, "there
is so little difference between a mans
foolishness and his wisdom, that it is
difficult to tell where one lets bff and
the other commence»." Death then

A little later the man stooped down to
pick up the burr that holds the wheel
on, whereupon the axle fell on him
giving him a mortal wound from
which he immediately died. When
Death heard of it he soliloquized as
follows: "It was not so much what
the man said to me as the way he
said it, that caused me to decide to
oreathc upon the nape of his neck."
—o
Death came along one day where a
mail was planting a vine on the grave
of his little girl. The man was weep
ing. Death went softly up to the man
and laid his hand on his arm. "Now,"
said Death, "I am not surprised to
find you weeping, but you tell me why
you do so." "Well," replied the man,
drying his tears, "I had planned so
many things for her. She was to be
educated highly, be proficient in music
and other arts and was to bo a leader
hmong wome'n:" "So, so/' replied
Death. "I once had an only daughter
and I wept when she was separated
from me and I can sympathize with
you." Death then went on to soothe
the man's nerves and comfort his
heart. "Your little girl," continued
peath, is much better off, for it was
,eft t0 nle ,. to say whether she should
see vou die or that you should see
her die, and I wished to spare her the
great grief, for you were better able
to bear it."
One time Death came along where
a man and his child were lamenting
by the remains of a sparrow that had
been t >rn by a hawk. The little child
weeping bitterly, for she had
seen the hawk destroy the sparrow.
The man went on to comfort the child
by telling her that it was God's way
of doing things. He told the child
that God h 'id made one creature to
live bv the destruction of another and
that all were made to be destroyed by
others. The child could not compre
hend the goodness of God in the face
of this explanation and so she talked
more about it. "Who is to destroy
us?" asked the-little girl as she peered
into her father's flushed face. "Death
will do it sooner or later." replied thf
father and this information started K
shudder over the child's frame and a
chill took possession of her. Where
upon Deatii spoke for the first time
and said, "You da me wrong to liken
me to Life. It is true that one life
must take another, but my work is on
the opposite basis. T only take to
bless that you may live again, while
life is only given that it may be sur
rendered unto a higher and better
plane. Life is sweet, but millions are
now telling that T am sweeter, after
all."

These little Spitz dogs ain't worth
the powder that would kill them.
They are the first to take any dog
disease that comes around. The other
night one out on Fifteenth street bit
a little girl on the porch and then ran
through the house and bit her little
sister on thc,ce!lar door and then ran
on out in the yard and bit a calf on
the hitch rope and then run into the
hen house and chewed a nice rooster
in the corner. It will be remembered
that the Spitz was the first to have
the rabbits a few years ago and they
always have the first runny noses and
the first bum eyes and the first
worms. At my tender age I would
banish every one of these doggies to
»Jinny and get a dog what is a dog,
good for more than looks and who
won't go bad at every provocation.
I often wonder—I mean I frequent
ly wonder—if I am really getting wise
beyond my tender age. A real estate
mm sold a man a bad farm and the
purchaser found it out in six weeks.
lt r went around telling what a liar
and robber that real estate man is.
Th|e retnl estate man mustered up
courage and sent for him anil says to
him keep still about that farm and go
to telling what a good one it is and
that you would not sell it for four
times the price, but that yottr wife is
sick and that you must get out of this
altitude and longitude and mutltitude
etc.. and I will get your money out of
it The point was well took and that
cheated farmer began to tell what a
fine truthful real estate man this onç
is and he spent several days building
up that fellow's reputation so a buyer
would believe him. Sure as snakes
he did get his money out of it and
five hundred dollars more. 1 am won
dering when that real estate man will
get that place over the top and have
to take water on it.
T can discern at my tender age ihn»
the inequality of inclination has given
some fellers the advantage over the
predecessors. Whbt makes one man
able to trade the poorest steed to an
other man and draw down the usual
ten dollars? It is just inequality
inebriation. What makes one mm
able to trade you some Arkansas land
for Idaho property? It is simply in
equality of inebriation. What make
one man able to sell alkali snots a
big as a race track and make vou
think they are not bigger than a
manure spreader? It is simply
equality of inebriation. I coniastulate
that 1 am correct about this hv>oter>
use. T see it at my tender age

man conjistulating on the streets this
week about whether to spend their
money in a Caldwell store or go to
Boise and unload it. The woman she
had an idea that they could save
enough to pay for the car ride, and
said she, its very-nice indeed to whiz
along even and smooth like on them
cars. The man allowed that it would
take three hours of their time to do
that easy riding and h# said at this
time of the year it was foolish to put
in time getting anything on earth just
because it was easy. The fat lady's
conjistulations prevailed over good
horse sense, and they beat it down to
the station and aborigineed away their
funds into the exchecker of the great
soalless corporation and hide away on
a nice jaunt during which they would
get to see the spiers on the capitol
building and insurrectionately might
get to see some of the new elected
state officials. They would leave a
little currency in Boise that morally
belongs to our own town merchants.
I hope that not all the fat women in
this region will be able to coax their
childrens' fathers to go to Boise and
be deprived of their funds.
I seen in a religious naper where
the editor was advising women folks
to not go alone when they went to
see a doctor or dentist or scoth
sayner. The editor explained em
phatically that women should take
some with them for the looks of
things. The editor went on and got
Pompaeian about his grounds. I am
guessing that when a woman goes to a
soothsayner for sooth, she don't want
somebody else sticking along for sooth
or anything else. The editor of that
religious journal spoke like he had
been hearing some remarks over in
St. Louis, for there is where he im
pugns his sheet. I do not think we
have a right to implore one's mastiffs
until we catch him at something. Dad
says a detective always looks for the
mastiff. He states that there is a
mastiff for everycrime if we could
locate it. So when women goes to
see a professional man, no one ort to
have a right to catechise her mastiff
unless he is well advanced in cate
chatics. Of course the man for his
own jurisprudence might see to it that
he has some one eternally on his body
guard.

At my tender age I annoy flippancy.
Its getting to be pretty prolific about
town. 1 seen two girls about IS gaze
broadcastly into the eyes of two
young strange men they was meeting
on the street and both of them girls
had a heir of flippancy about them
that was dogmatically erroneous.
They nudged each other instinctly
just as they passed the young men and
they giggled like the gurgle in the
steam ; pipe when its about to start.
They look around to see what infect
t was having on the fellers, but their
flippancy was too spontaneous even
for them two who were persuasively
out for something of the same sort
of instrumentality. \i my tender age
rannet see no use in turning little
girls out to the wolf of inebriaty and
congressivcncss when combativeness
inceeds responsibility. Flippancy was
what Jacob used on Laban his old
father-in-law. Why can't our mothers
learn our girls to go li'vht on in the
ven tenor of the modest ways and
