A baby was born down in Alaba
ma the other day with its brains in
its stummiok. It's a pity the poor
thirty didn't live. He would have
made a wonderful legislator when he
reached manhood.
Uncle Joe says about the worst he
ever felt in his life was when he came
to town not long ago on IJollar Day,
and had only 15 cents in his pockft,
I had a peculiar experience myself
last Sabbath. 1 saw the collection
plate corning round, and the smallest
change I had was a 5-doliar bill, so
I simply dozed off to sleep.
Some men would put you down ai
a plumb fool if you were to try to
swamp, them a dime for i>0 cents, yut
those same meo will play their money
into a slot machine.
A man up in Ohio has developed
a new type of radish, and wants a
name for it. I suppose he crossed a
horse radish with a turnip, and mule
radish would be a very good Maimer
for his tummick aeher.

Cotton Letter
New York, March 25.?Account
continued unfavorable weather, together
with the result of the Stribling-Sharkey
light, aided and abetted
by the slow movement of fertilizer
for the season, plus the promised
farm relief from Mr. Hoover, cotton
broke 85 points during the day to x
new low for the week, therefore, we
prefer not to advise our clients
further than to say that while May
may be a good buy at the present
level, we are confident that if July
is sold short, and October is straddled
while you are long oh spots, that
December will break in March when
the cotton mills give notice that they
will begin curtailing in June and con-!
tinue through August. . . .If cotton
sells for 3 cents a pound less than1
it's worth. I
Dresses useter be so long that they1
flopped about on the kitchen floor and!
stirred up a dust all the time. Now!
they are so short, they flop around in1
the gravy and soup while the old ladyl
is "needing dough" for other pur-i
poses. Moral. Fumigate.
It is very atylish nowadays for
business men not to go to work till
about 0:30 a. m., and knock off about
5:00 p. m. That's the reason you
hear of so many failures.
Grand Opera
It was my privilege last year to
attend Grand Opera in a neighboring
city, and it was my pleasure to
leave before the show vt&s over. I
can readily understand how certain
people Who don't love music can enjoy
Grand Opera, but if it were not
"society" to attend these functions,
Madame Bidamski would have to get
4 somebody to show here where the
stage was.
Well, I paid my 4 dollars for a'
ticket, and went in and sat down
on a plunk. I think the plank in

and was groover! and warted very
