"A woman can do almost any
thing with II hair pin. She can
pick a lock, mend the parasol, fix
her back hair, cut the pages of a
novel, scratch her name, clean her
nails or ears, button her shoes, and
waken her husband in church be-
sides other things too numerous to
mention.
--Abner Spencer, Jr., Of Ward
township, was committed to the
Athens Insane Asylum last Tues
day. His delusion seems TO he
that when he attends church he is
in danger of being mobbed or
stoned, and that some one should
pay him $50. The latter is probab-
ly no delusion.
On last Tuesday the Lodge Of
Knights of Pythias of this place,
paid off the mortgage Of $500 for
Mrs. W. II. Kern, that was on her
home at the time her husband died
about a year ago, who was an es-
teemed member of the Lodge.
The gratitude of Mrs. Kern for
this noble and glorious act of the
Lodge can be better imagined tn an
expressed.
An unusual case was tried be-
fore Esq. j. NJ. Floyd and jury
last Monday. Fred Downs VS.. Ez-
ra Stevens was the title of the case.
Downs sued for S275 damages. 1t
seems that Downs was out one day
hunting a horse trade and over
took Stevens who said he had Il
horse to trade and when they came
to Stevens place, Stevens held
Downs horse in the road and told
him where the horse was that
he would trade. Downs went in
the field to look at the horse and
passed a mare who flared her ears
at him and suddenly turning
kicked him before he could get out
Of reach, inhicting injuries
which laid him up about three
weeks. The jury gave him $50
damages.

How to Prepare and Adj
dress Packages Sent
by Mail.

The season is approaching when
the mails will be filed with holi-
day presents, and great many
are unnecessarily lost, delayed or
damaged each year because of the
Indifferent manner in which they
are prepared for mailing.
Newspaper or other thin paper
should never be used for wrapping,
and packages as ordinarily wrap
ped where purchased are not suffi-
ciently secure for forwarding in
the mails.
Use strong paper; make solid
package that will not crush easily;
tie we'll with good twine; address
legibly and correctly with ink on
the lower right-hand corner and
very few packages will fail to reach
destination in good condition.
1t is always advisable to place
the name and address of the send
er on the upper left hand corner of
all packages, etc., sent in the mails
so they may be returned in case
the addresses cannot be found.
Postal statistics show that more
delays result ON incorrect ad-
dresses than from errors in distri-
button by postal employees.
In case of loss or delay report
the same to your postmaster with
all of the information that can be
given.
