'Jhe Mas That Wi:xtto Kansas.
I've just got back from Kansas,
To my homo in Illinois,
And tho sights I saw in Kansas,
Have tilled my soul with joyri,
Vor tho Holds of corn are waving,
And tho sun is shining bright,
Tho harvester stands waiting
And the harvest is in sight.
I've just got back from frunsns,
And here's' what I urn told,
That KaiiBas corn for U)08, '
Will sell for much more gold,
Thau this whole, county will produce,
Along its present lines,
In gold and silver both combined
1'iomjts entire mines i
J'vo jiiit got back front Kansas,
And I'm dead stuck on the state,
Its people ato on easy street, i
Its climato'ii simply great,
Its larms aro rolling parkways,
And the llowcr.- thntailoiu
The meadows and tho hillsidu,
Are c un corn corn.

And there 1-s nothing that can hold,

From this Hood ot yellow g Id, i

And uaiisas can live high,
And blow themselves for yeais to

And still put something by.
Yes I've just got back from Kansas,
And tho tunny man Kin poke,

And laugh -and scoll and joke,
About tho Kansas faimer,
And tho whiskers that he grows,
And tho way those whiskers lluttor,
When tho Ka-ikis zephyrs blows.
Hut I'd rather live In Kansas',
Among her busting cribs,
Than to live horo iu Chcago,

BACK TO THE TOWN
COUNTRY LIFE PALLED ON THF
SUBURBANITE,
Real Facts of the Case Somewhat
Different from the Explanation
He Made to His City
Friend.
Tho year around the city resident
nnd tho summer suburbanite wore car
rying on n conversation over their
hurried nponday lunch.
".Must ho mighty nil fired crimpy
around the edges out In the country
theso dnys," suggested tho city man.
, "Don't believe I'd llko living out In tho
country those dnyu . without steam
heat nnd tilings. You'll bo hiking into
town pretty quick now, I B'pose."
"0, not for nwhllo yet," rcturnnd
tho summer suburbanite. "This Is
really tho flncHt time of tho year to
bo in tlii country. It Is n trilto'cilnp
when you get out of bed In tho morn
ing, of course, but then It beats tho
city at that. Somo might oxchnngc
tho good country air for tt few city
comforts, hut not inc. A little cold
Isn't going to hurt mc."
This was n day or two ago. The
following morning when tho summer
suburbanite- crawled out from under
tlio covers tho thermometer wno down
nround 10.
"Holy Jumpln .Tamos M. Johosaphat,
but it's cold In this barracks!" ex
claimed tho S. S. to his wlfo. "Talk
about your polar expeditions nnd tholr
hardships. They lumn't,got much on
this! What arc wo staying out In a
place llko this for, anyhow? Never
saw such n bleak habitation as this,
If you'd call it n habitation, in nil my
troublous life. What's your idea In
sticking to it plnco llko this for when
wo'vo got n house thero In town with n
furnnco and hot water nnd bath tub
and all such things? That'B whnt I'd
llko to know! I surely would.
"If I wanted to froozo to death I
could do it right in town any good
winter day. I wouldn't need to como
clear out hero to tho country to do it.
Holy mackerel but that water's cold!
Don't oven daro wash your faco in
this Greenlnndlsh place! And I'm
sorving notice on you right at this
juncture thnt we're going into town
to-day, and wo're colnc to stav there
until next summer. Us for town. In
cold weather a man's supposed to live
in town whero thoy'vo got radiators
and such like. That's what towns aro
for."
Then tho other day the suburbanite
nnd his friend met ngaln nt lunch.
"So you've moved back to town,
hnvo you?" spoke up the year-around-city
man. "Thought you'd got enough
of thnt country business In this sort
of weather."
"O, yes, I moved In," ownod up the
Into suburbanite. "It was lino out
thero, hut my wlfo Just naturally
wouldn't stnnd for It. Said she couldn't
keep warm. And you know how use
less it Is to argue with a woman. I
had to come In. Hated like Snm Hill
to do It. though." Cleveland Plain

Clever Work of Beavers.
A peculiar fact was dlscovorcd at
tho reservoir nt Saddloback pond re
cently at Itangeley, when beavers
work In dam construction wns found
to Interfere with tho wator supply
from Saddleback stream. These busy
engineers had constructed a tight dam,
which had retained considerable of
the supply of tho mountain reservoir,
and workmen each day tore out their
work, only to find it rebuilt on tho
noxt visit. Good-sized troe sections
had been hauled in and plnced In tho
dam by tho beavers. After sovoral
destructions of tho beavers dnms
there was again found to ho a stop
pago In tho supply of wator through
tho main pipes. Tho dam had not
been rebuilt, but on closo Investigation
it was found that those cunning en
gineers, In revenge, apparently, had
built a donso screen across tho strain
er, which had prevented tho How of
water through tho main pipe Kenne

Deer Seeks Mall Carrier's Protection.
A deor ran cIoho to the mail wagon
of Edward Casshly when near tho

drove off tho dogs.
Tho several dogs which followed
close upon tho trail of tho frightened
