a. Missouri official returned In very

bouse and present it "to hlui. . .
Tho Missouri , statesninn 1 was noted
for his ability to beep on the fence. He
never took a positive stand on ahy
thing, but loaned one way and then nn
other and compromised by remaining
on the tight wire. ,,
The committee went , to look at
house. It was a good house, wltuplen
ty of rooms and two bathrooms. All
were pleased except one man. who said
nothing. .:
"How about it, Bill 7" the other com
mltteemen asked. "Do you. think this
house Is all right?"
"Nope," replied Bill. "It's . Insani
tary." - ..-.: : -
"Insanitary? Why, man, you're crasy!
It has good plumbing and two bath
rooms."
"That's Jest it," said Bill. "Them
two bathrooms is what I don't Uke.
He'd never get to take a bath wlth two
bathrooms' in tbe bouse, because he
couldn't decide to use one without be-
In' afraid he'd hurt the feelln's of tbe
other." Saturday Evening Post, .
