For the elegant, long-lineaged Mr. Coco is a baltoon. He is a baboon veneered with mod ern society manners. He hns easily mastered those few thin conventions that distinguish the common baboon from the ordinary swell. Mr. Coco drinks tea or cocktails with a deftness and indifference that marks the highest culture. He wears his dress suit with on easy obvious ness that charms the ladies and driv es the mere men with not more than one or two generations of soft-hand ed gentility back of him mad with envy. Mr. Coco shakes hands in tl»e latest approved fashion. His smile lights his face into geniality and in telligence quite rare in exclusive cir cles. IIo drives an automobile and spends much leisure time driving in the parks in a brougham. Mr. Coco Is the rage. Swell women fawn upon him. No high social affair is complete without him. He strik ingly illustrates how little of brain and of human quality is needed to make a great swell- NOTICE. name If It had only been spoken in • sit Ion to look down upon them from • reverence, and thereby hangs a beau- j high life and patronizingly discuss tiful lesson, a life’s story with scarce- I them in much the same sort of chat- ly more words than years. The wri ter has the honor of the old gentle man’s acquaintance. In the morning of life he left his ancestral. home In Tennessee, came west and in a tangled forest built a cabin. The walls were of hewn logs, notched down close at the comers to keep out the piercing winds of winter, arid the floor was of ^plit puncheons. There the young pion eer loved his family, served God, and lived peacefully In the little home built with his own hands and beauti fied with busy fingers. Nearly fifty years have leaped the dark precipice into the tomb of ages; the log cabin has changed into a neat cottage with a shingled roof, vine- clad windows and carpeted floor, tho forest has disappeared, and the broad acres bless the garden with a bounti ful harvest when pompous autumn smiles and the withered banners of the corn are still. “Only an old farmer.” One of the many who have tolled for home and food and substance, fostered civilization, revolutionized commerce, fed nations, pampered kings, and heapened the granaries of a thrifty people. Go home, weary toiler, to your quiet home, "over the hills and far away,” around whose hearthstine the ghosts of burled hopes, fallen virtues and broken vows do not throng, and over whose thresh old the vulture of dissipation never flew. The merchant prince in his counting room, or the cattle baron wMk his “cattle on a thousand hills,” t greater or moro blessed than Vrehonest farmer who Is king of his fireside. A residence in the throng ed city may be palatial and grand, but after all, the peaceful home among the flower-clad hills of the country is dearer, and he sun bronzed hand that guides the plow and sows the seed and garners the harvest holds In his brawny clasp the wondrous key that unlocks the storehouse of the world. “Only an old farmer.” Gray haired and grand old gentle man! • The fair forms of children clamber on his knee, nestle In his arms and bless the fleeting years with tho prattle of innocence;; field and forest tan his tawny cheek with the sweet odor of the morning, and tho dew-gemmed flowers bathe nnd kiss his feet at evpntlde. Totter on, "pale wanderer to that hollow vale,” wearing a crown or tufted snow and a garland of wrinkles won in the bat tle of life. Tho black wings of death will put out the light and herald the awful night of gloom, but fold thy placid hands In peace; it has touched the string In the harp of life that set the world a throbbing; and more, it built a little home and fought the wolf from tho door, helped the penni less and forged a link in tho golden chain that leads from earth to heav en. Then gather around the drop ping mantle of purity woven of good deeds, and he soul of the "old far mer” shall exist through eternity as It has lived through these last seven ty years, honest and simple and free. —Southern Odd Fellow.
