Who Made Congressmen ?
Once upon a time a good mm took his little boy to the gallery of the House to show him the great men of the nation, and they listened eagerly to an able effort by one of them. When lie had finished, the father turned to the boy nnd put his hand on his head. “My Son,” he said “ an honest man is the noblest work of God.” The boy looked into his father’s face with his great, earnest eyes. “ Papa.” he inquired simply, “ who made Congressmen ?”—Whashington Critic.
