Waste of f Taoray
In antebellum days Colonel Moore,
of Kentucky, owned a large number
of slaves. He was a kind master and
never punished with the whip. One
day ene of the field hands named
Jupe was guilty of some negligence
and was sent to the woods at once to
cut down and split up a black gum
tree, practically an imposible task.
Jupe cut down the tree and labor-
ed hard to split the tough woed, but
in vain. In the meantime & thunder-
storm came up and Jupe sought ref-
uge wnder a brush heap. Directly
the lightning struck a large poplar
near by, splitting it into kindling
wood.
After the storm had passed Jupe
erawled out from his place of
security and, after taking a careful
look at the remains of the poplar
tree, which was scattered all over
the woode, said; “Mr Lightnin’, I
wish you had just tried yo' han’ on
dis black gum. Any blame fool can
split a poplar!" —
