sessions, children and wife? (Wife
ranks second after the advent of the
first offspring.) “And home’s not mere
ly four square walls.” Around and
quite near his dwelling are sheltered
his mule, his oxen, his cow and pigs,
while upon some neighboring hillside
his orchard and vineyard thrive. And
thrive without pruning or spraying, for
these are unknown arts to him. He
knows his fruit usually “hits” and his
vines are usually loaded with grapes
from which he manufactures the win
ter’s supply of wine. And sometimes
when the revenue officers relax their
vigilance he perhaps engages in the
manufacture of the stronger liquors.
But with the exception of the Christ
mas spree drunkenness is of rare occur
rence. And how is it with the wife
and mother of these homes? Her life
is bound up in her children, her hus
band and her chickens, and in looking
after the welfare of these her time is
taken up. With the exception of an
occasional visit with the neighbors
and kin folk (and everybody is akin)
and the monthly “meeting,” she takes
nor desires no relaxation. To be sure,
her house, although clean looking, is
often unsanitary, for nobody ever
heard of microbes. However, the un
sanitary conditions are completely
overbalanced by pure air and uaadul
terated food and simple living. So
with plenty of snuff to “dip,” the wife
is happy in her own as is the
husband. ’

FROM THE HOTEL ANNEX.
There was a big convention going on
in a small town and the proprietor of
the only hotel had leased a church
over across the street from the hotel
and had put beds in there to accom
modate the overflow.
“Two drummers, who had been im
bibing quite freely, were given beds
in the church.
“About two o’clock in the morning
the church bell, which was also the
town fire alarm, began to ring. It
brought out the fire department and
all of the natives. When the propri
etor of the hotel rushed across the
street into the church, he called out:
“Who’s ringing that bell?”
“I am,” responded one of the drum
mers; send over two Scotch highballs,
and a pitcher of ice water to Pew 17.”
