'Ilang it all, Warier, I'm sick nn' tired
of this everlasting palaverin' about
women's work nover bein' done, ntf slclr
nonSenso! Pm blanied if I boo why a
riffht smart woman can't frit her work

"Well, anyhow,- Marier, I'm mighty
cure that Jf I was a woman I could do
your work an' have ti good, easy timo
every day of my life.
I s posts then, jfosh, you wouldn t
mind tryin' it a while, bein' a man?"
asked tho wife, pausing in washing tho
breakfast dishes, n!l glatJcins cynically
to where her spouse sat'smomhg
i sfi 1
cobt nrnotinu lookine, through a
montli's Fafmer'i Tribune.
"Eh?" asked Jo3h; looking up.
She repeated her' question.
"Pro thought of that same thing my
self," he replied, only I didn't know
how you could git along wUh my work. "
"Oil, you needn't .worry yourself 'bout
that, Josh. I kin.do your work if you'll
do mine. " '
Mrs, Phlatkins felt safe in promising
this, for when Joshua' was seized with
his semi-annual "rhoumatiz," sho had
had tho whole thing to attend to many a
time. Josh seemed to forgot this, in his
sudden solicitude for the welfaro of lib
business.
"You'll have to hitch up, and bo keer-
ful with that off colt, 'cause no's skeery
of the railroad crossin'. Bo Euro an'
water them, at Smith's well; an' don't
lot 'em drink too much. Take that but
ter to 'Squire Eubin's. an' the punkinto
J ones s. an tna -corn-to anears ware-
house : an' don't forcifc to order a bar'J of
1irnr) .nWoMh nr tw.
chine."
"Oh, I'll remember everything," said
Mrs. Phlatkins. uAn' now I'll tell you
your work for tho day. You jest want
to finish these dishes first ; then wash out
that basket of .clothes an hang 'em out
to dry; scrub tho floor an' churn that
butter; it orto come quick to-day, 'caus9
tho cream's jus? right. By that time the
bread'll bo ready to bako ; an' you might
put on somo beans an' squash an' taters
to cook at the same timo, for you an'
Dan's dinner. After you get the dinner
things done you can can them two buck
ets of plums ; then, while you're resting,
like, you might mend that basketful of
socks, an' put a patch on Dan's everyday
pants. Then you kin git supper, an' I'll
try to bo back in time to cat it an' tell
you what to do next. "
After giving these explicit directions,
Mrs. Phlatkins proceeded to do her hus
band's errands in tho town; while Joshua
began most systematically tho tasks
that were to bo as play to liis superior
tact.
Thev washing was dono in no time, and
tho clothes all hung onthe lino in good
arrayt iO bo Euro no Uid not rinse nor
wring them; but these operations were
only consumero of timo, anyway; and
they looked beautiful, as they waved
their bright blue (albeit streaked) folds in
the sunlight.
It seemed .all foolishness to lot tho
bread stand around so long, when it
might just as well be in baking.
"I'll just put. it in now with the other
inings. an-ouiia up a goou noi iire.au
by the. time I git Uiis butler chumedtlio
whole bakin'will bo. done, an' overy-
tiling.. josU; so he built a roar-
ing fire, and went merrily to his churn-
ing. After bobbing the dasher for 15
minutes, Joshua peeped into the churn
thing8, an' build up a good hot fire, an'
how things wero progressing in
there.
At that exact moment there arose a
dreadful screeching in the back yard.
"That blamed hawk after tliem chlcx-
ens againj "muttered Joshua, dropping
the dasher and making a dive for his old
smooth bore, which contained a good
charge of fine shot, for use on spch occa
sions. Pushing toward the barnyard, he espied
a large hawk just rising with one of his
most promising young pullets, while all
the other P. Y. P's wero rending the air
with their shrieks and "ker draw cuts."
Bang! Down dropped the pullet with
a thud and a "kuckl" which was his last
word to his brethren. Down went Josh
ua with an"Ohl".and I-didn't-know-it-
was-loaded Bort of expression on his phiz.
Up went tho hawk to circlo in the air,
hungry as ever, but nono the worse for
his great scare.
In the barn there was an Old gray jack
ass who had been noted as a kicker in
his younger days, and' had nevor out
grown the ; propensity entirely. How
Mrs. Jafliua Phlatkins had neelected to

1 good behavior for several days, and was

jaci's eara moved lorwaru viciously ; uut
still ho refrained from rash actions, as a
good old mule should. When, however,
that "bangl" came, Jack's youthful
vigor began to return,
"SUvslil Crash! "-r-with every successive
I kick a - board flew from tho bam into
I space ; slats, boards, studding, everything
I went down before his righteous fury.
Not until everything within his reach
1 was kicked out of reach, did Jack stop to
rest, and condescend to eat the corn which
Ins master forwarded,
A Utter of young pigs that had been
shut in the barn went squeaking uirougl
the newly made door, and Joshua spent
much valuable time getting them penned
up out of reach of an old gentleman hog
who was jealous of them, and deemed It
his duty to devour them.
Thiu it was that when Joshua returned
to the house ho found the Uro waning
ifter reuewiug it he recommenced his
churning.
'Wonderful! I never heerd Marier say
1 that butter would churn itself! " muttered

Poor old T. Cat! Ho loved cream, but
this time he hadwen more than he would.
Jodh plai-ed him outside the kitchen
window, when he began a process of
cleaning which to this day he has never
ended.
Josh was wiping up tho cream as well
as he could, when Dan camo in.
"Gosh! Pop. what kind of a animal id

"Dan'l,"wlu Mr. Pluatkins severely,

"Dan'l, dinner s gOin' lo bo lato to-day,
an' you had better go over to Aunt
Sally's for something to cat, or you'll bo
tardy to school. "
"All right, pop," said Daniel, march
ing off obediently.
Owing to a dearth of eatables, Mr.
Phlatkins dined on cob pipo and medi
tations. After dinner ho put the bread, butter,
and other uncatables in a largo pan and
took them out into tho back yard. This
dono, ho sat down, not to rest, as usual,
but to commence work upon a Bock,
which ho succeeded in darning a good
deal by 4 o'clock.
For supper ho toasted a,. little dry
bread and made a cup of tea by tho
timo his wife drove up to the barn and
had attended to the horses.
After supper Mrs. Phlatkins said :
"Well, Josh, after you gitthodishc3
done you kin go an' milk tho cows. I'vo
got a fow papers and things I want to
look over this evening. "
When Joshua had returned from do
ing this she remarked :
"Josh, I don't see tho bread nowherea.
Wasn't it good for notliin' ?"
Never seo nicer bread in your born
days," ho affirmed boldly.
Thats queei! muttered Mrs. Josh.
No ono ever could bako decent bread
without turnin' that damper to hoat tho
oven. " Then sho added in a louder tone.
And tho butter, Josh; whoro is that?"
"That was awful fine, too," replied ho,
f l-om behind his newspaper.
Just then tho cat rose from where ho
had been lying by tho kitchen stove, and
Mrs. Phlatkins' quick oye caught sight of
the grease spot with which ho had decor
ated the floor.
"Gracious! Josh, what on earth is tho
matter with Tom? Just look a-hero!"
Pop, he" begou Dan, who sat in tho
corner making htuo isatana on his Blato.
Dan'l," interrupted Mr. Phlatkins
harshly. "Dan'l. have you carried in
enough wood?"
"uuessso, pop."
" Well, go and carry in somo more ; it's
going to be colder to-morrOw,
"Joshua," said Mrs i'nlatkins, when
Dan haddraggedhimself out to tho wood
shed, "what have you dono with tho
bread an' tho butter?"
"Fact is," said tho truthful house
keeper, "somo poor iiecple come along in
a covered wagon gypsies, I guess an' I
gave all tho things, an' the squash an'
taters I had cooked, to them for then
dinner. Awful big family they had. "
"Well. Joshua, if they ate tho bread
that you cooked in that cold oven, they
must bo dead by this time, sure. But
what did you give them all that butter
for?"
"Oh, they seemed so fond of good
butter. I could not disapint 'em,
Just then Tom followed Dan in with
his load of wood. Poor, sticky Tom!
Ho walked as if his onco sleek fur had
been converted into a water proof, skin
tight coat; and ho had the most de
jected air ever seen in tho countenance
of a respectable farm cat,
"Why, whatever can be tho matter
with Tom?" asked Mrs. Phlatkins. "Ho
looks like ho had fell into tho soap
grease."
"I guess he feu in tn ,

mother continued in tho dark as to Tom's
appearance, which, however, she soon
improved by a fow kindly cuorts,
Tho next forenoon, as Mrs. Phlatkins
was digging somo potatoes for dinner out
in the little garden patch she noticed

near tho woodshed

thought the lady, "Guess I'll help him
Kit it out."
Suiting tho action to the words, alia
began to hoe up the rather loose dirt.
Presently -sho uncovered what looked
liked an immense cream pun. urowlcr
liclfed the pull, bit it, then went and lay
down in the shade of an ash barrel with
a disgusted look upon his face,
"I thought bo!" said Mrs. Phlatliins
softly. Good bread! TJh! Huh! very
nice bread! Nice raw squash an' taters,
too," raking out a few vegetables as sho
soliloquized. "Do-licious butter! Ye-ea
poor family in covered wagon,
At the dinner table Josh knew that
trouble was brewing because his wife
was so quiet. After Dan had started for
school she said :
"Well, Josh, I found the place whero
your poor family ate their dinner yester
day. Ain't you ashamed to lie like that,
a settin' sidi a example to Dan I ?

HOW TO COLLECT HAD DILLS.
A Clilcego Tailor 'WIto Wat Hound Not
to Ito Shook Off.
A Chicago tailor has devised a new
way to collect old debts. A customer,
who is employed in his father's office at
tho Board of Trade, has owed a bill of
$45 for several months. Statements of
tho indebtedness and demands for pay
ments havo been made once or twice a
week for somo timo with no effect,
and the young man's father and mother
havo ocen appealed to in vain. It was
useless to suo, for tho debtor isn't worth
a dollar. Tho case looked hopeless.
But tho tailor is a very foxy individual.
He happened to learn that the young man
was desperately in lovo with a pretty girl
and that ho spent certain evenings in
overy week at hor house. On one of
these evenings tho tailor appeared at the
young lady's residence and inquired fer
his debtor. Tho youth came into the
hall to meet nun, and when he saw the
tailor ho almost fainted away. Tho
tailor camo out flat footed and swore that
tho bill must be paid then and thero or
ho would raise a row, so that tha young
lady would bo informed how matters

conclusively that ho had only $1.4.5 on
his person, and the tailor finally relented
and left. Another monjassed and

lady informed her admirer that she could

and further, that if ho could not show
her a receipt for tho Wll within sir days

There was a terrifio storm at tho tailor's

This unusal exhibition of caution ex
