Rude Rural Rhymes
The Descent of Man
1 point with pride to that old mon-
key who sired the hernan race, by
hunky. A faulty race both then and
now, yet even pessimists allow he
started something anyhow. When
man first slid down from the trees,
sloughed off his tail, unkinked his
knees forsook his safe old forest seat,
and stood straight up on ,his hind feet,
he was a homely husky dub who
scorned the weekly cleansing tub and
ruled his sole mate with a club, And
when she talked of rights, 1 ween, he
did not fuss nor make a scene but
bounced big boulders off her beats.
That female of the species bluff lie
called it quick and called it rough.
He .let his hair and whiskers sprout,
save when some rival yanked them
out. He ate raw meat both hair and
hide then crunched the bones for fat
inside. We view this caveman with
disgust when his rude manners are
discussed. In age, in middle Life and
youth, his roughneck way's were most
uncouth. Yet what we think of that
old cuss our sons will doubtless think
of us. Give rare the man whose tools
had stoneheads instead of certain
modern boneheads, Sleek . citizens
who fail to vote, buy bootleg booze or.
rock the boat.

A curious thing is' the law. ,Frank
Stanley was committed to one month
in jail for attempting to obtain money
fraudently from the West Wawanosh
Insurance Co. He had no sooner
served his term than an action to re-
cover the insurance came up before
Mr. Justice Orde, and a jury •awarded
hint the full amount of the insurance
he had claimed plus the interest on it
which he had not claitn.ed, .Mr. Jus-
tice Orde charged the jury strongly
in Stanley's favor. He admonished
them' to pay no attention to former
'trials or convictions. There was more
than the Insurance at stake. There
was the reputation of the plaintiff
which was more important There
t.
was met one title of evidence ths,. he
was responsible for the fire, He sub-
mitted several questions . to the jury
every one of which they answered
favorablytil

for two nd one half days and was no
concluded until after midnight on Fri-
day. Among the local witnesses were
Oliver Cole and Win. McLeod who
swore that Win. Stanley had come in-
to Whit Hick's house about one
o'clock in the mottling where there'
was a dance in progress. It was
about this time that the fire took place
nineteen miles away. This evidence
was in rebuttal of testimony tending.
to cast suspicion on the plaintiff's
brother. Wrn, Thompson went into
1 the box to swear that there was no
ford car at the dance that night,
This was, n rebuttal of testimony giv-
en by some of Stanley's neighbors

Like bread without the spreadin',
Like a puddin' without sauce,
Like a mattress without beddin',
Like a cart without a hoss;
Like a door without a.latchstring,
Like a fence without a stile,
Like a dry and barren creek bed,
Is a face without a smile!
Like a house without a dooryard,
Like a yard without a flower,
Like a clock without a mainspring,
That will never tell the hour;
A thing that sort o' makes you feel
A hunger all the while—
Oh, the saddest thing that ever was
Is a face without a smile!
The face of man was meant for smiles
An' thereby is he blest,
