These friends have been closely identified with the people of this section, and occupied a htgh position injour community?in the estimation oi the people at large, aud there is general regret that their business interests, called for a change in . their home.

A few nights ago a runaway couple from across the river went before Ma gistrate J. G. Huckabee and were relieved of their uneasiness, because of tbeir rebellion against parental authority. Many juat such couples, come over here, hnding it cheaper to pay ferry fare that license. Mr. Curtis Fennel, Operator at McCormicb, was here for a day last week. Dr. J. B. Britt of Wideman spent a day or two last week, at the home ot his brother-in-law. K Rev. C. L. McCain of the Shiloh circuit came over Saturday morning aud brought over the Bev. R. H.

He sees right-off that 20 Devoe is as r-\ much as 30 of anything else. He likes that: it oomes quick; it is a surprise; and be tells of it. The best advertisement is a pleased customer. Three years roll round. There isn't a sign that his bouse ueed9 paiut: be don't paint it. This comes slow: it if a surprise; but be has got used to it.
