S., Minot. Thar attempted German junker revolution was a mad-Kapp sort of affair. .They say the sad thing about fish||p ing. trips this year, is that fishermen have to fish. ... The Leal Leader hid an awrer tisement in it that ran something like this: "For Sale—A cow will have calf soon, also some hogs." Some cow, some cow! We'll say so! $ The papers' report a great slashing in wearing apparel. We presume they mean the laundries. "How it this, "waiter yoiPve charged me $2^0 for planked steak?"

F. FULLER HERE was once a mul& This mule had a "master. The mule's master -ihade him work veiry hard, and allowed him only poor food and poor shelter. The mule grumbled at his hard lot.* The master told him that he should not murmur or complain, and that he should be content with the condition to which God had called him. The master also told the mule how intelligent he was, and~what~a good mule he was, arid promised, him better things, but. the mule never got them. One bright day when the master was near, the mule let fly both heels and. kicked him clear out of the lot. As soon as the master regained his Benses, he asked, the mule what he meant by such unseemly conduct. The mule replied I am tired of hard work, poor food, poor shelter and broken promises.- I am tired of my life of constant toil. I want some leisure in which I can enjoy a mule's life. I am willing to serve a portion of my time, but I refuse to be eternally at work witib no leisure whatever .. The master replied:"-' You ungrateful beastl Don't you know that I .have gi/en you a job? What would become of you if I did not furnish you work Said, the mule: You did give me a job but I DID NOT NEED A JOB TILL YOU FENCED IN THE GRASS.- You tell me that God placed me in this cdndition, but lam quite sure that he did hot. I know that by taking away my opportunity to make a living you com-, mitted a great iniquity against me before you extended to me the favor of a job. BEFORE I WAS ROBBEP OF MY OPPORTU NITY I HAD ONLY MY OWN LIVING TO MAKE, AND I MADE IT EASILY AND HAD MUCH LEISURE, but now I work hard all the time, making your living as well as mine, and have no leisure at all. .The master replied: You evidently don't appreciate what a blessing it iB to have a job. You ought to be very thankful as your father was. He used to work for me. He was an animal of character, always a hard worker, willing, humble and contented. He was the ideal of what a worker'should be, and a great political party adopted him as a model for its adherents td pattern after, and placed his picture at the head of ite tisket as the highest ideal that could Vi be attained by a worker. I used to make your father work harder than you do, and gave him less food and poorer shelter than you get, but HE never kicked. "Yes," said the mule, "so I havelieard, BUT EVERYBODY KNOWif THAT MY FATHER WAS A JACKASS."—NEW MAJORITY, PAGE TWO- THEY DINED IN THE CELLAR A gentlemari*who was a-regular at tendant at church, was dining with a few friends on Saturday night and re mained out rather late.

Extract from the report of the fore man on Mr. Steff&nsson's berg farm: "Some mermaids broke into the pas ture last night and milked all the sear cows." A COW STORY A farmer over near Bagley, Miniu, was out in Hie barnyard milking one of the old cows one evening last week when an air plane winged its swift flight over head and, as the farmer said in telling of the incident later, "that tarnation old fool of a cow r'ared up and knocked me over and spilt a liull pail of milk." "Yes, I saw that airplane goin' over," corroborated one of his auditors. "That must have been Townley." "Hell, no, that -wasn't Town ley," declared the farmer.
