Notorious Gossip

A prominent stockman of Paisley tells this quip that happened up in his locality recently. One of the hired hands on agranch there came back from town with the informa- tion that he had to quit his job and get to his home in Washington. Why, asked his employer, did he have to quit his job in such a hurry? Was there any emergency? No, the erstwhile hired "hand said, and then, frankly and un- bashed, showed the stockman á letter he had received from his daughter in the neighbouring state,

who informed him if he arrived

home immediately he would have time to "sign up" on the relief rolls for the winter.
