VARIOUS AND ALL ABOUT, j For Friday a picture has been sub- j stituted for the one advertised in the! program. "The Broken Butterfly" i will be shown. This picture is one: of the biggest pictures of the season! and has a notable cast. That part of the Boyd Epting j property in Friend street used as; stables by Pat Wise has been bought j by Banker H. L. Parr, who will con- j vert it into a garage for the present, j Mr. Parr intends to put a cotton : warehouse there later. We take i pleasure in noting these marks of im- j provement. The neighborhood of the | depot ought to be improved for the j favorable impressfon of passengers; traveling through or stopping over, j If you go to the opera house to- j day, Friday, you will see over three j hundred feet of striking pictures re- j leased by the German war office! showing the latest views of Ger- j many's former crown prince and i Hindenburg, through the Fox News.; This in addition to "The Broken j Butterfly" and the usual comedy. The owner of the lost glove found | his property through advertisement j in The Herald and News, and now 1 T>?OOI.c lin iiron+c +VlI XjitWS) X (t^OUigci ocij o uv wiv | woman who lost her heel to come to j him and get her property, or else < leave her other heel with him. Wej suggest that he turn the heel over to j that cotton platform bunch near the i depot. What ought to be a warning to j other ladies is here briefly related: I On one of those very cold mornings! last week a lady wanted to scan ai " <-> > ? j i ? i qUJCK nre. one usea Kerosene, many other ladies do, pouring the oil from the can, holding it close down. All of a sudden there was a big outburst of blazes and the flames flew fast and furious for a while, coming very near causing serious injury and damage. Don't fool with kerosene in the can near the fireplace or stove. In a newspaper it doesn't take much to change "James" to "Joseph." 1 All that is necessary is for the "a" in "Jas" to drop to the "o" in "Jos." | That was how Auditor Jas. B. Half-| acre was called Jos. B. Half-1 acre in Tuesday's paper. But that doesn't keep him from making a good auditor. Sometimes a letter is dropped from a word, the apostrophe gets i in the wrong place and other things! don't go right. Even "Mr." is once i in a while changed to "Mrs." and1 "Peacock" converted to "Peabody."' Pninf-.incr the affected narts with ! iodine is said to be good for thei itching in chilblain, and that unguen- j tine salve is good for the soreness. This is the time of the age to buy' lots, while money is plentiful, the population is increasing and people j are wanting to build. A great chance will be given lucky oneo on Saturday afternoon, beginning at 3 ; o'clock, when Keal instate Agent | Frank R. Hunter will sell a number ; of beautiful lots in Gilder's field. ! One lot is to oe given away to uie i holder of the right ticket.

J "Mickey" was great and the crowds j at the opera house Tuesday exceeded < the standing capacity beyond the! limit. Couples going turned back i upon seeing the stairway packed from ! i the outside doorway up. so immense i was the blocking of the people many' had to be let out through the passage j under the stage, it being impossible at i times to get through the mass at the! front. Mabel Normand was at her 1 best. And when Mabel comes again ! the people will want to be there. j The address in the interest of the j anti-saloon league was not delivered last Tuesday night, as Rev.
