The following is a story of - Abraham
Lincoln which, if it is not true—es it
bly is not—is at: least entitled to a
place in legendary literature: Lincoln
was onee riding akmgz s lonely road
when an ill looking ‘man, who held a
cocked revolver, suddenly faced him.
. “What do you want, my friend?"
* Lincoln asked. :
“I am going toshnot you,’’ answer:
_ “Well,” said Lincoln, “I don’t mind |
being killed, but I ghonld like to know
your reasons.’ : a
"41 once vowed," said the man, ‘that
if I ever met a wan homelier than I am |
I would shoot him."
Lincoln locked critically at his assail-
ant for a minute, ard then said:

are, then for pity’s ake shoot!”

LOPSIDED HENS.
How a Cope Elizabith Mun Produced a
Breed of Nonscratchers. :
Speaking cf hens reminds me of a
worthy townsman of ours, J. Fairfield,
- Tuttle, who Lad a small patch of jtraw- |
berries so sitnated that enly a fence,
and a peor ono at that, divided them
from a neighbot's henyard, and these |
same hens botherod our friend very
much by getting through the fence anfl
scratching up the strawberry planta.
‘Our friend tried many ways to rid|
himself of them, but failed until one
day he saw bis neighbor in the aot of |
setting another hen, : :
Now, it’s necessary for you to know
that the hens above mentioned were of
what is known as the Shanghai breed!
and hal very long legs. It ccewred to
our friend Tuttle that he saw a way out
of the difficulty. So procuring half »
dozen bantaru (short legs) eggs ho stole |
over during the night, took out siz of
the eggs that wer: under the him and |

What was the result? When the chicks
