TOLD BY THE TRUTHFUL iVIAN This Is a Story of the Remarkable Effect of Sudden Rains on the Gulf Coast. “You’d scarcely believe how ex cessively damp it is along the Golf coast,” said a truthful man with long whiskers, to the editor of the (fiasco Sun. “We all use rawhide harness, and a real hot, damp day sure does cause the tugs to stretch amazingly. One day I drove down to the river bottom more than a mile from home, and loaded up three-quarters of a cord of pecan wood. “.lust as I had finished loading a shower came up and the water that fell was as hot as the so-called hot coffee in restaurants. Well, 1 start ed the mules, and the tugs began to stretch, but the wagon never budged. 1 drove on home and when I got there the wagon was still down in the bottom and the tugs were stretched out as small as shoestrings. “What did I do to get the wood home? That’s easy. 1 just unhar nessed and threw the gears over a stump in the back yard. Fifteen minutes later the sun shone out, dried up the dampness, and in less than an hour that wagon came creep ing up the hill. Y'es, sir; that’s a fact.” • DOMESTIC ANIMAL CENSUS Figures for the United States Are Somewhat Surprising to Man Who Hasn’t Thought. The United States is much more densely populated with domestic ani mals than is generally realized. In these days of famine prices for eggs it is interesting to learn that there are 280,345,133 chickens in the country, or an average of nearly three fowls for every man, woman and child. They are valued at $154,- 663,220, or 52 cents apiece. Only chickens over three months old Are included in this report. The number of horses, as might be supposed, has not increased as rapidly as the population, but de spite the almost universal automo biles there are still nearly 20,000.000 horses in the United States, which are valued at more than $2,000,000,- 000. It is rather surprising to find that thtre are more than 60,000,000 cattle, valued at more than $1,500,- 000,000. The number of sheep has declined in the past decade, but there are still more than 50,000,000, which represent a wealth of $232,- 000,000. Not the least important item of national wealth is the swine, which number about 60,000,000, and whose value is almost exactly $400,000,000. THE WRONG PARENT.

BRIGHT SIDE. “Will I recover, doctor?” inquired the pedestrian who had been run over. “Surest’ thing you know!” replied tha ambulance surgeon. “The fellow who owns the auto is a millionaire.” —J udge. CUSTOM HOUSE AMENITIES. “The government has given back all the captured flags. Nice thing, eh?” “Yes; and I understand there’s a movement on foot- to return those seized aigrettes.” INTERNATIONAL INFLUENCE. “Why did your friend take French leave when hostilities began?” “I guess he had too much Dutch courage.” CRUEL COMMENT. “He is a man one will always find in the van.” “Do yon n ''an of progress or the police patrol ?” NOT SUFFICIENT DATA. “Are the running expenses of your new car much?” “I don’t know; I haven't caught up with ’em yet.” REFINED DICTION.

HILL a SON Homer, - - - Georgia. Explaining Why They Got Married. In New York recently a lot of post Cards were mailed to married men ask ing them why they had married. Among the replies was one from a man who wrote: “Please don't stir me up.” Another man answered: “I yearned fer company. We now have company all the time —her folks.” Wonderful Peroration. A lawyer, more fluent In his speech, than careful In hts metaphors, was once guilty of the following perora tion: "Gentlemen, it will be for you to say whether this defendant shall be allowed to come into court with unblushing footsteps, with the cloak of hypocrisy in bis mouth, and draw three bullocks out of my client’s poci& it with impunity.” ,
