UNCLE DICK UNDULY EXCITED
Took Aunt Mary Sam* Littlo Tima to
Understand the Matter, and
Then, Action!
“I don't know what we are coming
to,” xalil Uncle Dick Fowler, as he
surveyed a 9heet of thin paper, which
had accompanied a periodical sent to
Aunt Mary by their daughter In New
York.
“What’* the matter now?” asked
Aunt Mary tranquilly. “What are you
doing with that sheet of paper, Dick,
and where are your specs?”
“I’m huntTh' for ’em now," said
Uncle Dick, excitedly, “and I suppose
this here,” shaking the paper, “is a
new map, and the way it’s cut up by
the railroads Is a shame and a dis
grace ! I don’t see how there's room
left for a decent house lot in the whole
slate.”
"Well, now, And your specs and read
what It says,” counseled Aunt Mary,
abandoning her socks to look over
Uncle Dick’s shoulder. “Perhaps
they’re only prospecting the roads as
yet; maybe they won’t be built any
more'n some o’ these western towns
that’s laid out all so pretty on paper,
and now hopes else. Read what It
says, father.”
“It says,” faltered Uncle Dick, with
a confused expression on his face,
"Pattern of skirt and jacket (.11 page
372. Pattern of evening waist on page
374. Pattern of —”
“Here, you give It to me!” com
manded Aunt Mary, and she departed
to spread Uncle Dick’s supposed rail
road map on the table, while he was
left to ponder ou the wonderful works
of mau—-and woman.—Philadelphia
Ledger.
POINTED WAY TO EFFICIENCY
Railway Mall Clerks Really Inventors
of System Acknowledged as the
Beat Yet Devised.
When railway mall cars were first
Introduced each clerk was allowed the
privilege of doing his work in the way
that seemed best to him. Clerks com
peted for efficient methods —-some ot
them attaching to letters they tied up
In bundles a slip on which they wrote:
“In case of error report to J. Hlnnk,
Route DD.” From this the modern
“facing slip” now used was copied.
These slips are of great variety, and
are used In post offices as well as on
the cars. One Is placed on each pack
age of letters distributed anil tied for
further distribution ou another raH
. road system or in a post office. 10v
<*ry package can lie identified in this
way. If errors are found this slip
with notations Is sent through appro
priate channels back to the man who
made the error. Iu this way clerks
are enabled to perfect their skill and
add te or change erroneous Items In
their knowledge.
Teeth Had Wandered.
An extraordinary case of a wander
lng tooth leaving its normal base fn
tlie gum and traveling half way rouud
a woman's head is reported from
Constance, Switzerland.
A wealthy woman named Graunei
suffered great pulu from neuralgia
which also affected her eyesight. She
underwent treatment by leading
French, German and Swiss specialists
for several years, hut without result.
Finally, she consulted a dentist, who
by the aid of X-rays discovered a
wondering "wisdom” tooth behind her
right ear and In dangeroua proximity
to the brain.
A surgeon successfully removed the
tooth and the patient immediately lost
her neuralgic pains.
Mine. Urauner, who has now com
pletely recovered her health, rewarded
the deaSst and surgeon witli large
fees aad had the wandering tooth
mounted la gold.
Marks as Wrapping Paper.
Murks are so constantly depreelut
ing in vulue that the thrifty Teuton Is
hard put to find some use for them.
They are, of course, of some use In
buying clothes and groceries, hut not
much.
The latest step la the downfall of
the mark ims been Hs use In Un
wrapping of chocolates. An enter
prising candy manufacturer lias dls
covered that 20, 30 or 40 pfenning and
1 murk paper money Is a cheaper
wrapper for chocolate* titan tinfoil,
especially when one must purchase
tinfoils wltii marks. In addition
the money wrappers offer an in
duceinent to the speculative candy
buyer who wishes to bold murks for
a rise.
Mrs. Harris' Brood.
District Visitor (calling on Mrs. Har
ris, a new arrival in the village)—You
*t-etfl to have a great many children.
Mrs. Harris.
Mrs. Harris —Yes, mum; and what’s
more, all their names begins with
haltcb. There’s ’Ubert, my oldest
Then comes Ilda, ’Arrlet, and ’Orace.
Then there’s Arold and ’Arry and
Kotor and ’Onorla. They’re all
liaitches; utl except the huby, and we
christeued ’er Holive. —London Tlt-
Blt*.
Did Not Like Fat.
The provision dealer was astonished.
He gazed at the newly murrled young
woman as if he thought she were a
victim of temporary Insanity. “Did
you say you wanted a —a leuu chicken,
ma’am?” he queried.
“Certainly, 1 did,” and the young
woman’* expression took an added dig
olty. "Neitlier Mr. Torker nor I evei
chicken fat. It Is extremely dls
tasteful to both of us, and 1 see no
occasion for paying for what we dc
not like.” —Philadelphia Ledger.

Mr. Petty'began improving his
cotton in 1916 or 1917 by the sin
gle stalk selection method, being
very careful to keep records on
the different plots and having his
cotton ginned on a private gin on
the H. A. Petty farm, thereby
keeping his seed absolutely pure
as he did not gin for the public.
Mr. Petty has continued the
above method until now, his suc
cess is quite evident and the de
mand for Petty's improved cot
ton seed is much greater than the
supply available and he cannot
fill the orders received for seed.
Mis cotton has made a very
creditable showing in all sections
olanted. Mr. Petty has made
shipments of his seed, not only
out! of the State of Georgia but
out of the United States and in
to China and Italy.
