Ili iurnt Hnrlneircd 1i A ii In Out of Im VIIIukc I reckon weve got tho oddest town In our state that theru Is In the United States said a West Virginia man Ever hear of Culloden I dont mean tho clniiH of Oulloden described by the poet Campbell I mean Culloden W Vu Well sir about half the popula tion of tho town doesnt live In the town and cant vote In the town al though they are right In the town Ill explain The good people and they aro In the majority too aro down on silicons and liquor In any shape They got up a temperance meeting and purposed to drive tho liquor men out of town When you tlnd a West Virgin Ian who believes In liquor you find a man who Is ready to light for It The liquor people got together nnd in some way got the confidence of the own en gineer 1 dont know whether he was a liquor man or not but they got him on their side The engineer discovered that tho town was not laid out right and he got authority to change the metes and bounds When he tlnlshed the job the temperance people found out that they lived Just outside of the line of the town no matter what part of the town their houses were In A man could stand in his back ynrd and talk to the man whose place was right up against his plnce nnd who was a voter but tho first ninu had lost his vote The linos of the engineer excluded as I have said tho temperance people It took In tho license folk all right The ninp of Culloden ns It Is now looks n good deal like a sheet of paper after a lly with Ink on Its feet meanders across It You can tell how n citizen of Culloden stands on the liquor question by the plnce where he builds a house If he builds one which doesnt often occur In spite of Its zigzag bounda ries however Culloden Is n contented community New York Sun A Pnlnful Memory A lady who 11 on
