He makes use of his talent ^and is considered one of the beat -marksmen in Ohio In fact, he makes his living for his wife and aged mother by the use of his rifle.

Than running the streets and exclaim "I'm one of the boys." CHORUS. You may call me a quiz, you may call me a guy, But there Is some things that looks queer to my eye; A lesson to .all I hope it will be, When I tell about the things I don't like to see. I don't like to see ladies wear satin for dress, When their husbands are bankrupt tffid In great distress. They had better be at home washing the dlsbes, Mending the stockings and their husband's old breecheB. I don't like to see young ladles wear t^ht hobble skirts, Bare heads, short sleeves and low"fceck shirts; They'd look much better to dress cosy and neat, And cover their persons from their heads to their feet. I don't like to see old men that wore the Confederate grey, L*>af on the streets and around the poetoffice all day. Boasting and swearing and telling what they say. And how many Yankees they killed In the late Civil War. I don't like to see business men claiming the right To lay out from home till late In the night, Claiming to be at their places keeping their business Intact, When really they are at the club drinking, smoking and playing "setback." I don't like to see men riding around upon wheels, SpoutlVg and smoking In automobiles, That were bought on credit as has often been said. By mortgages secured on the family homestead. * I don't like to Bee negroes Hanging They had hotter Mb scattered and sent to the farms, Where, they conld work and be useful and do much less harm. I don't like to se? candidates at every turn of the lane. Scraping and bowing and claiming of kin, Shaking hands and saying "howdy do you do. How is your wife and how are you?" You may call me a quiz and you may call me a guy. But there are some things that look - j queer to my eye; 4. lesson to all I hope it wilt be, Au I h'lvo (aIH f\f fhin<va tVint T Hnn'f like to see.

Bootleggers operate in Oklahoma to some extent and generally make the'whiskey they sell. It is known locally as forty-rod stuff, because it is guaranteed to kill at that distance. In a case in Durant, where the quality of the whiskey was in question, it was explained to the court how dynamic it is. A Durant man, it seems, took home a pint of the mixture. He spilled a little of it on the floor of his shack. A rat came out of a hole in the wall, took a sin and went bade. In a minute the rat came out again, took another sip and retired to his hole. Presently the rat came out and took * third sip. Then, instead of retreating to ita hole, the rat stood up on its hind legs, waved its forefeet in the air, gritted its teeth and squeaked: "Now where is that damn cat!" Saturday Evening Post.
