Only farmers are re. called from slumber by music. The song of the bluebird is delight ful, but the lay of the hen Is still sweeter —to the poultry-raiser as well as loyer of fresh eggs. Milking with wet hands is a filthy practice. The clean milker uses clean hands and ib sure before he begins that the cow’s udder is clean and that na falling dirt can get into Using lard on the hands to make milking easy willfaid in making hard milkers. It will also help to keep the cow’s teats very tender. Dampening the teats with mils also has the same effoct It is hoped the new food laws pass ed by Congress and most of the States will prevent the sale of corncob juice and hickory bark extraction for pure roople syrup. This fraud has been palmed off long enough. The new laws require every article of food placed on sule to be labeled for just what, it is, and the fellows that try on this sham maple syrup trick will get Into trouble. It ought to have been stopped long ago.—Ex. Looking Ahead Some.!

Pat goes a-hunting. An Irishman, who wasn’t much of & hunter, went out to hunt one day, and the first thing he saw to shoot at was a blue jao sitting saucily on the top of a fence. He blazed away at the bird, and then walked over to pick it up. What he happened td find there was a dead frog which he raised carefully at arm’s length, look ing carefully it it with a puzzled air. Finally he remarked: “Well begobs, but ye was a devil of a folno lookin’ bird, befur Oi blew ther fithe's off o’ yerse.” Something of a Bad Break. Telephone mistakes may hare their serious sides.

Nelson spent Tuesday with her mother Mrs D. H. Holloway of Jasper. The Rock Hill school children spent Saturday afternoon pleasantly at the home of Mr. and Mrs. V,M. White searching for Easter eggs. The eggs were hidden in the pretty grove by Mrs. White and Miss Nelson. While the eggs were being hid the children were on the branch gathering flowers. When they came back they rushed to the grove eagerly to see who could find the largest number of eggs. Liz zie Moss succeeded in winning the prize. The prize given was a large picture. At five o'clock cake and fruit was served. When they depar ed for their homes they declared a delight ful time. TIY AC i nth . The Oyster. When an oyster has its shell closed it is alive. Trained "sliuekers” say it is not difficult to open the shell of an oyster when you know how and that they can open from thirty to thirty-six in a minute. It is said that oysters In season may be eaten at all hours of either day or night without causing the least symptom of indigestion. When served raw the small varieties are considered best.

HOT SHOT Tom & Jerry. “Beginning Mev the lothfour new rural routes will he put in the coun ty. Two more will go from Jack* son, another from Jenkiosburg and another from Fb'villa, malar.g twelve ioiili. This gives the countv a fine system of rural routes, and will be the means of making farm ing lands more valuable and coun try life much more desirable. The ' establishment, of this system is doe more to tlm direct efforts of.l. K. Carmicha* 1 than nr.y other one citizen of the county. He has been working quietly at the matter through Congressman Bartlett for more than t o . e rs.” While the abbvj appears in our con temporary, the Aigus. yet we are in no doubt about it having come from the pen of one of J. it. Carmichael’s Funky Fridays, and not from the pen of the Editress. Therefore what we have to say, is. by no means, intend ed for her. We know Johnie is very philanthropic (?) Yes, greatly con dderate of others and that he readily up his money for the advance ment of his fellows we f are, but.n Ftl kv Friday, your boss Johnie, did not directly or indirectly, have anything odo with the establishment of the free rural delivery's ystemsin Butts County or elsewhere, your boss, Johnie, has worked all this through Congressman Bartlett. Mr. Bartlett has worked untiringly aud unceasingly for nis constituents, not only in Butts, but all over the district he represents. I daresay no Congressional,district in any state of the Union has a better rural delivery than the Sixth, and to Charlie Bart lett the people are indebted and not to your boss Johnie. my flunky Fri day. I can tell you what your boss has done flunky Friday. He built a cheap post office building and got it, ofT on the Federal government for a term of years at a handsome rental price. Yes, flunky Friday, we know you think your boss is IT, but we think there are others. We are willing for you to parade the good (?) deeds of It was that matchless Tom Watson, while in Congress, who introduced the first measure on the subj ct and from that small beginning has grown the free rural delivery system all over the Union. No I your boss did not directly or indirectly bring free rural delivery to Butts. Why flunky Fri day, we would have had the system if your bos# had never been born. We wiil not allow it to go unnoticed and uncontradicted when you say your boss, but don’t take the work of our Congressman’ our Charlie, and give credit to your adorable Johnie. Now, Johnie is a great (?) citizen. We don’t see how the people could get a long without him, but, my flunky FViday, he is not entitled to one par ticle if credit for the free rural mail delivery in Butts. No, Friday not a bit of it! I will admit that he is an sdeptwhen it comes to getting his $12000.00 mansion by the tax asses sors for 86000.00, but the rural mail delivery in Butts is the product of Charlie Ba tlett working for eacii and every’ constituent along the several rout s in our county, and not to Hunky Friday’s boss. *** THE Wm MATRON AND THE DOG. The i-nost alarming thing we see as we go hither and yonder is the large number of young matrons and Miss es who are fixing their affections on the scavenger eating dogs. We were on board a street car the other day and found a beautiful lady, elegantly and handsomely dressed, and she had in her arms one of those scavenger eating animals, and of all the billing, cooing, spit swapirg and tongue chewing we never had hoped to see, nor hope to see again. The little scavenger eating rascal would run his tongue out and she would grab it with her teeth and pull on it like it was chewing gum. This dog-tongue chewing fad, so far, has not been taken up by the negro matrons ami misses that we have ob served, but we are hoping that tney will “calch-on” and drive our Cau cussion sisters from this sickening waste of their affections. One of our large cities in the East, has passed an ordinance prohibiting this dog-spit swapping process in public, and we :hink Macon and Atlanta should fol low aUU. To see ft womar, God’s greatest gift to man, with her mouth in the mouth of a dog, or the dogs tongue in her mouth, puts a man to wondering and asking, what is the the trouble in that woman's life? Is is possible that t,ne worna:: we saw on board the Street can't get a man to love her, or that her affeitions are so low they rise no higher than that dog? But love is like the butterfily. Have you never seen the butterfly, clothed and array. ed in gorgeous satin and velvet finish* u asit flits from rose to honev-suckl ai and in mirifly tires of its feast on th e switUitss of the flowers, and turns a <vay aid finds [leasure in sipping of t iie scavenger at ihe hrise s luel? to it is with a woman’s love. Conscious of tier beauty and charms and her ten der elTominite nature shown through the blush of her cheek, with spark, ling eyes and a look that draws men to her. yea, all men, yet, so often we ! find them reveling in a waste of their affections on a scavenger eating dog. kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Rapid changes of temperature are hard < on the toughest constitution. < The conductor passing from the heated inside of a trolley car to the icy temperature of the platform—the canvasser Spending an , hour or so in a heated building and then i walking against a biting wind —know the difficulty of avoiding cold.
