Show A Clever Evasion. There was an aspiring citizen in Mississippi who used to quote grandiloquently grandil-oquently the familiar saying, "Tho office of-fice should seek the man, not tho man the office." On one occasion he was observed electioneering for himself in the old-fashioned style, with whisky, cigars, etc. Being reminded of his recont lofty utterances, ho answered: "I still maintain my position. The offlco should seek the man; but, by gadl sah, the man should bo around when the office is looking for him." |
