The Congressman and the Pin.
Woman has no vote, in most of the
states, but in all of them her influence
in politics is acknowledged by the
politicians, who keep their wits at
work devising means whereby they
may win and hold her good wishes.
Kissing the babies is an old trick, but
being still a good one, it is played
whenever a good opportunity presents
itself. Getting a rural housewife to
darn a hole snagged in one’s trousers,
which is alleged to have been a spec
ialty of a former rtmatpr of the United
States during bis campaign visits
through the country, is another trick
concerning which much has been
i written and said. But, according to
I Judge Hill, of Newport, Ky., Conmess
man Berry, of the Sixth district of that
state, has hit. upon a new and bright
idea, the practice of which should
warm the hearts of the women of his
constituency towards his candidacy.
Congressman Berry’s scheme was
seen in practice on a Newport-Coving
ton belt line car, the other day In
the car with the colonel-—for of course
the Kentucky congressman is a col
onel, by virtue of both bis birth aod
bis office —were a number of Newport
women going to a convention in Cov
ington. While boarding the car one
of the women displayed signs of sud
den but deep agitation. Something
had given ’way. There was an imme
diate amt earnestly whispered demand
for pins. Two or three were produced
b}’ the other women, but the whole
stock seemed inadequate to the emerg
ency. Col. Berry bad been buried
behind a newspaper, very discreetly,
during this time. But be got infor
mation somehow —it must have been
by telepathy—that there was still a
woful want of proper pinning. At all
events, with the utmost delicacy, be
produced a very large safety pin and
tendered it to beauty in destress, with
the information that if one was not
enough, there were more where that
one camo from, and they were all at
her service. Then the colonel went
off behind his paper again. The big
safety proved just the thing ; ami the
rescued one was so grateful that she
could alni'ist. Lavi' II ibsomz'd rue
rescuer. Naturally every worn in in
the car i'>tantly felt : n incr ased in
(erest in CT B rry ; b was so thought
ful in carrying safe!', pins, and so
prompt and tactful in i flaring them.
Now, Judge Hill of Newport, who is
the c.olonid’s friend and abo something
of a joker, declares solemnly that Berry
makes it a practice tu carry several
papers of safety pius in bis pockets,
for just such emergencies, and that he
has attached more votes to himself
with safety pics than any other man
in public life.
