If a man mokes a break through his own chucks ucadedress, he can laugh over it and pretend he enjoys tt; but If he makes a mistake simply because he doesn’t know any better, he Is full of mortification from the roof of bis hat down. It seems to jar hi* vanity. “About , the most humiliating experi ence a man can have Is to get stung to a horse trade. The average man doesn’t know anything about a horse. He-can see If It has four legs and a tall and a pair of eyes, but he la ob livious to all the things that make * horse a good one or a poor one. If; he gets the worst end of a trade he •houtd be a philosopher, and say that while he isn’t a success at swapping Plugs, he can tftod up « phonograph or stoke a furnace better than any man In the country. But he gets mad, and the fact that he was atuck in such a trade leaves a sore place that never heal*. “I can remember a, break my first wife made when we were newly mar ried. She tovfteei some folks to dinner, and, after much deliberation, decided to have a roast duck as the chief <ti«h and told the hired girl to go ahead and prepare the bird. Now, a duck Is mighty fine eating, what there is of It, hut there is mighty little substance to tt A duck Is a mere shelL It doesn’t rim to meat at all. A good hungry man could eat three ducks at a sit ting and look around for more. “My wife, who had lived at hotels and boarding houses all her life, sup posed a duck was a solid chunk of meat, and thought there would be enough of the bird left, after the din ner, to keep us to cold meat for a week. Well, there were eight people at that dinner party, and each one had a piece of duck about the size of a one-cent stamp. "Everybody but my wife thought the mistake was funny, but the most su perficial observer could see at a glance that her heart was broken. She tried her blamedest to smile, but right In the middle of the effort she broke off with a yell, and left the room to weep a few stanzas and she never did recover from that humiliation. I tried time and again to convince her that there was nothing to be ashamed of to such a misadventure, but she thought the finger of scorn would be leveled at her as long as she lived. “I can't sit here nnd moralize to thl* ■train all day, but I feel Just as slek as anybody when I make a break. When the mayor was burled three years ago there was a big procession to his honor. A lot of mounted men led the parade, and If you were look tog you doubtless saw me. 1 was tiding a big black horse, when the big black horse wasn’t riding me. I never supposed there was any trick to riding a horse, so when they asked ms to sit on a foaming charger I didn't hesitate a minute. I got seasick be fore I was on th* nag two intents*. and I let go the lines end bung to it* mane and tbs fool horse cavorted ell over the street, so that I looked like the Idiot who tries to ride a trick mule at the circus. “My evolutions simply broke up that funeral parade and turned It Into a Joy ride. I really wasn’t to blame to any way, but whenever I think of tbs episode a cold sweat breaks out on me, and I feel like offering myself to the first comer for seventeen cents."
