She felt her heart, looked at her tongue in the mirror and rolled her eyebaUs. “Mebbe he’U know some disease ole Doc Shakewell ain’t heard of’ she sighed hope fully. “They say them fellows fresh out of school has cooked up some wonderful afflictions.” . - Sure enough, the new doctor caught on like the measles in kin dergarten. He took with Aunt Gee Gee right away, found more thing? wrong with her in a week than Doc ShakeweU had found in 20 years and pronounced. her an emotional invalid. This delightful diagnosis drove her to her couch* from which she kept the party line hot pro claiming the new doctor’s merits She spread his practice all ovej El Dorado county with/her tongue Aunt Gee-Gee is walking contagior —her tongue has spread more ill ness, complaint, malady, disorder decline and collapse than an> plague or virus to hit humanity She carries in her mouth a diction ary of symptoms and is most gen erous in sharing them with anyone who’ll listen to her. A visit from her is generally followed by a cal! upon the doctor, so vivid has been her description of her delicate health and her discernment of the same symptoms in her listeners. “Honey,” Aunt Gee-Gee would exclaim, languishing upon a neigh bor’s settee and fanning her fevered forehead with a handker chief, * , he says I’M a hypochon driac.” • But the new doc’s head got toe big for his stethescope. He began to presume that some of his most important patients were cured while Doc Shakewell generally let? a disease drag along until the pa tient becomes bored with it and brings in another. Soon the new doc’s practice began to dribblr back to Doc Shakewell. “I went back to Shakewell when that young upstart told me my heart • palpitations were caused by un masticated onions,” said Aunt Gee- Gee testily. “Humph!” grunted Doc Shake- well. “Cure all the sick people, will he? That smacks of socialized med- *cine!” * /CONSTABLE Starr Badgett an- ^ swered a riot call Friday at the Cracker Barrel General Store. Seems a city slicker stumbled into the darkened store, and, blinded by the bright sun outside, upset the checkerboard between Clem Poore and Milo Mopish, Just when Clem had Milo in a trap. Knute Bellows and Odd Bodkin roughed up the stranger some, and then there was a big hubbub and a general fight between those who allowed Clem would have won and those favoring Milo. The stranger was dragged off to the county Jafl. “Dang fool!” complained Bill Steepbelly, store proprietor. “Didn’t wanna buy even a plug of tobaccky. Jes wanted to ask the way to Bumble Bee Bend.” • • • Belle Bellows (Knute Bellows’ oldest daughter who married Odd Bodkin) told us the other day that, when her husband goes out under the tree with a stack of western magazines, she always makes him check his six-shooter with her lest, in his excitement over the stories, he take a pot shot at Laze Dozier, who, Odd says, rustled some chick ens off the Bodkin hen ranch one night last summer. . * * * Speaking of thieves, Squire Glad- money Debitside had Constable Starr Badgett out cm his farm all night Wednesday watching for the fellow who stole 'a shoat there last week to return for another pig.

PAGE FIVE I’m turning today’s column over to Ted Truebiood. He has some mighty interesting things to say to you trout fishermen: IH I am a -rule breaker when it comes to fly fishing. It took me a long .time to get so brave. Like everybody else, I started fishing a dry fly upstream, and using small flies and light leaders, at tempting to cast curves right or left, and paying strict observ ance to all the other theories that look so good on paper and are so hopeless oq the stream. I’m all for tradition in the right places, but when you’re fishing it’s a handicap. Let’s look at some of these time-hpnored rules. The first cardinal principle— and the worst handicap under which the beginner can possibly labor—Is the old rule to fish a dry fly upstream. You’re sup posed to face the current, wade against it and cast curves in or der to float your fly down ahead of the leader. Nuts! I usually fish my dry fly downstream, the easy, natural, fish-taking way. Next to the fish-upstream rule, the worst bugaboo of the begin ner is drag. I have caught hun dreds of trout on a dragging dry fly. -I have actually seen days when the only time they’d strike was when the fly was dragging. In order to catch trout most con sistently on the drag the angler should work it, not give up to it. I don’t simply let my line pull tight and rip the fly across the surface. Instead I pull it a little feed some slack and pull again. One of the old rules with which I am in wholehearted agreement says the leader must sink. But the method that I am sometimes driven to for sinking my leader will probably shock some conservatives to the mar row. I put lead on. Two little chunks of lead, about the size of No. 6 shot, clamped on near the last two knots, will break the surface film and take the leader down, yet not bother the fly. When it comes to playing fish the most popular erroneous be > lief is this: Let a fish have slack, and he'll get off. With a plug, maybe yes. With a fly, nothing could be farther from the truth. You keep tension on the fish so that you can wear him out and land him. The drag of the line going through the water when & fish is moving or the pull of the current on it when he’B station ary is enough to keep the hook in his Jaw. When a big one Jumps it is a good idea to lower the rod and give him slack so that he won't break the leader.

Paysinger, Distributor • Fire insurance wasn’t the big business in Grand* maw’s day that it is today. Matter of fact there wasn’t too much need for insurance since that dear old soul stayed at home most of the time and if a blaze started simply doused it with the dishwater or a few buckets from the well.

The home today is without occupants much of the time and that little blaze which grandmaw handled with such ease is free to develop into a real fire. * Of course you have already guessed the moral to this tale and we will not bore you with a mention of it We will just slip this in though: “You will enjoy that vacation more if your possessions are fully covered.” « * A thousand or two more is just a matter of cigarette money, and then if your house burns down, your wife will think you are some sort of genius for being so far sighted.
