Only a short time since our friends
were greeted with the news that Mr..
and Mrs. Fritzinger had bouncing
boy, and closely following this was the
news that MIR. and Mrs. Love were also
honored in the same way. On the
heels of this came flashing over the
wires, the news Of Mr. and Mrs. John
DAILY having added a flower of beauty
to their little home on the hill. A
little girl mad arrived. We had hard
ly time to quiet our mind when more
pleasant facts came to light. 1t was
the fact that Mr.. and Mrs. Hardin
were rejoicing over the advent of a
new arrival, young lady Of genial
manners who had come to stay. Still
we were not to have peace and last
Thursday evening there was great re-
joicing at cur neighbors, Vim. I.
Jones, and natural enough we joined
in the general joy Of the occasion. It
was also girl plump and round as a
dollar weighing nine pounds. Thus it
has been for the past six weeks, and
the other day while we were at Nc
Camleys & King the latter looked as
tho he was envious of his hardware
competitor, Jones, and was going to
take advantage of him at the first oP-
portunity.
