A Tribute to the Hired Man.

Nebraska State Journal; “7 The life of the hired man is not a happy one. He works about eighteen hours in the field every day, and when dark-

ness he has to feed a lot of inappreciative hogs, milk several cows which are old enough tq know howto milk themselves, and do about three thousand Other cjiores for which he receives no extra pay. Nobody ever heard of the hired man going on a strike, however. He Jpilg along unostentatiously and never branches out as a labor reformer. All honor to the hired man, who earns his every loaf of bread by a gallon or two of sweat.
