Why Should He Hurry The visitor to a country farm was being shown round the premises by his host, says the New York Times. Thev in spected the hennery, the piggery, the cowery, the horsery and all the other "eries," and the city man was very much interested. Presently, as they walked along the side of a field, he touched his companion on the arm. "There!" he exclaimed auickly. "Is that scarecrow?" "Where?" asked the farmer. "That shabby thing in the middle of the field. It must be a scarecrow. It hasn't moved all the time I've been watching." "That's no scarecrow," replied the farmer sadly. "Thai's a man I've got hired working by the day." "Say, doc," said a small boy as he entered the physician's office, "I got measles. Nobody else knows and I'll keep it quite." Thp ni177lpH Hnftnr Irvnlrn^ n? ruuu.vu uwiui ivuntu at the boy, but said nothing:. Finally the boy got impatient and said: "Aw, get wise. What will yer give me to go to school and spread it among the kids?" LAND EXCHANGE The Wise Investor is Always looking for opportunities to buy real estate at a price less than its actual value.

Paqeland Insurance & Realty Co, I G. R. Knight Thanks Voters I desire to thank the voters of Old Store township for their support in the recent primaries, and promise to discharge the duties of the office to the best of my ability. G. R. Knight A gentleman from Vermont was traveling west in a Pullman when a group of men from Topeka, Kansas, boarded the train and began to praise their city to the Vermonter, telling him of its wide streets and beautiful avenues. Finally the Vermonter became tired and said the only thing that would improve their citv would be to make it a seaport, The enthusiastic Westerners laughed at him and asked how they could make it a seaport, being so far from the ocean. The Vermonter replied that it would be a very easy task. "The only thing that you will have to do," said he, "is to lay a two-inch pipe^from your city to the Gulf of Mexico. Then if you fellows can suck as hard as you can blow you will have it a seaport inside half an hour." It was a dull day on the wharves, and a bunch of negro stevedores had gathered and were discussing a pail of beer. After a while the talk turned on one of their fellow workers, who had been shot at the night before. A strange negro who had drifted in asked: "Did dat nigger run?" "Run?" replied a witness. "Run? Why, ef dat nigger had V had jest one feather in his han' he'd 'a' flew!" Jimmie was going: out with his mother one afternoon and had been sent upstairs to get ready. After a long wait the mother called up the stairs: "Hurry down, Jimmie, we're late now. Have you got your shoes on yet?" "Yes," replied the boy, "all but one." Church Service Directory J. W.
