After a thorough examination, the young medic told him to have his teeth pulled. A month later the man, minus teeth but still troubled, went to a specialist. The headaches and bugging eyes horrified the high-priced doctor, and predicted our toothless hero had only six months to live. The man disconsolate, hut decided to "live it up" during his remaining days ? so, he bought new clothes, even decided to indulge an old urge to wear custom made shirts. The shirtmaker made with the tapeline, calling out measurements to an assistant. When he called out "Neck size 16," the customer protested: "But 1 always wear a size 15." "Okav, if you insist." said the tailor, "but if you wear a 15 shirt your eyes will bug and you'll have awful headaches." _ , .t. & ?, 4 Jeffery Wayne Gabona is the 5 month old nephew of Mrs. Gladys Campbell, Lydia Mills.
