"If 'twas a common man, Miss Sally; but a king's set up on high by the Lord, and we ought to obey what He sets over us." "I don't see where in Scriptur you get that idee, George," retorted Zekle. "Well, it says in one place you're to obey them that has the rule over you, sir."
President, brothers and sisters. Fact is, I sent my boy down to the seminary to learn how to talk, so't I wouldn't haf to. I guess he represents my idees purty well, though, all except this political idee. I don't know about that. I aint quite made up my mind on that point. I guess I'd better leave the floor for somebody else."

By perfeshun I'm a exhibiter of wax works & sich." "Good God!" yelled the Kurnal, "the idee of a exhibiter of wax figgers goin into the presents of Royalty!
