[Copyright, 1907. by T. C. McCluro.]
"I wouldn't go so far as to recom
meud the heir to n million dollar estate
to turn tramp," said the dilapidated
gentleman as he pocketed the quarter
tendered him, "but at the snrue time
I wish to say that enjoyablo events

"The process ton heads for the co

That's where the laugh comes in.
One of Two Things Sure to Happen.
"In the course of a week one of two
things is sure to happen. The officers
XS??? "... H?... oi?;v ?| ' ??
at liberty or 1 am arraigned foi exam
ination. In the former case the sheriff
coiues to my cell and calls out:
.. 'Here, you miserable old tramp, t>*
?ut of this!'
" 'What for?'
" 'Becnrsp I s;>.y so. You are dis
charged Iroui custody. Why in tho
devil didu't you say you weren't
guilty V
?' 'liut I did.'
"'Kou't lie to me! Get out of this
jail! A nice mess you have inado of
It! I'eople are calling mo the bluest
ass in tlic state! Get a hump on your
self!'
"And two years ago In an Ohio jail,
where L_ had lain for a week under
charge of a double murder, the sheriff
kicked me as I left the tall. I went
straight to a lawyer and Uad him ar
rested for assault uud battery, anil ho
settled the case by banding: me $35.
"If I aui arraigned I am given a law
yer. It's dead easy for hlni to show
exactly where 1 was at the date, or,
rather, where 1 wasn't. On one occa
sion I was nt work In the hayOeKl six
ty miles from the spot. On another I
wa$ chopping wood for a farmer sev
enty mile# distant I am set at liberty,
bnc grudgingly. The public bad Its
miml made up that 1 was guilty and
should be longed, and It's a disap
pointment to all.
"Let me tell you that the dilapidated
gentleman reasoned things out long
ago. He Is no more a criminal by In
stinct than any other man. He doesn't
want to lose his life or bis lll>erty. lie
Is not greedy for gain. Not one tramp
In ten would quit the road If he got a
legacy of $5,000. (live him sulllcleut
for today and the morrow may go
hang. He may hit back If you bit
him, but he has no cause to want to
murder any one. lie may steal to as
suage hunger, but not for prollt. Now
and then you hear of some tramp rob
bing a farmhouse. He Is either uruuk
or a fool. No pawnbroker will taku
anything from him, because he Is a
tramp. No person will buy any of his
plunder for fear of being compromised.
The tramp with sense In his head
knows tlilg, and If a dozen farmhouses
were open to him there would be no
temptation.
"Suppose that a tramp Stole $25 In
cash from a house. If he struck a
town and went to buy a suit of clothes
he'd be suspected. If be went to a ho
tel and wanted to become n guest he'd
be suspected. I f he even bought a new
hat or a new pair of shoes It might be
made the grounds for his arrest. How
would It prollt him, then, to take the
money ?
"I have worked for a fanner for six
weeks ou a stretch aud taken the road
with $30 In my pocket. I have been
arrested a day later and had to send
for hlni to prove that I wasn't a thief.
If I had a ten dollar bill In my pocket
I might walk 200 miles aud not find
anybody to change It for me. I once
found a twenty dollar bill on the
streets of a town. I carried that bill
with mo for four months and then at
last gave a tin peddler $2 premium to
change It. He felt sure that I had
stolen It, br.t decided to take chances.
Tramp Is Suspected.
"You see that a horse has been stol
en and a tramp Is suspected. Bosh!
Where would he go with It? Whom
could be sell It to? You see that a
country store has been robbed. It was
tramps that did It. Bosh! What could
they do with their plunder? A post
office is entered and the safe blown
open. Tramps some more. Bosh!
When you find a tramp that can blow
a safe you may look for cows with
wings. The door of that postofflco
might be left wide open every night in
the year and he would pass oil.
"Tlirce years ago in Lonnecucui a
farmer's bnrn was robbed of fifty
bushels of onts one night. Ills own
baps were used to sack them up. The
team used to draw them away was fol
lowed for six miles. 1 was within ten
miles of the site of the robbery that
night, and next day I was arrested as
the robber. 1 was held In Jail for a
week before being examined to allow
of the sheriff working up the case, but
when things finally came to a head
you ought to have heard the Justice
score him. He was a uiau of sense,
he was, and he made the sheriff out a
born fool within ten minutes. If I
stole the oats [ must have stolen a
team to draw them away. Who had
lost n team? It would havo taken two
men to sack and load the oats. Where
was the other man?
"Oh, yes, there are events lu the life
of every dilapidated gentleman on the
road, and the moral lesson to be drawn
from most of them Is in his favor. He
does less lying than any salesman,
less stealing than confidential clerks,
and, as for immorality, your millionaire
is convicted of it oftener than your
tramp." M. QUAD.
The
General Demand
of the Well-informed of the World baa
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its com
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given
the preference by the Well-informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine ? manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty centt
per bottle.
