2, HEARLE BUILDING
TO BUY A GOOD R

Mr.. Glenn Bledsoe departed for the blue
grass regions OF Kentucky Thursday
morning where he has gone for the pur-
pose of purchasing a good horse az jack.
He intends buying the best horse he can
find, and is not limited to price. He will
get one that combines saddle and road
qualities. In the purchase OF a jack he will
also secure the very best. AS he cannot
be here or ''horse day" he requests his
friends to wait until he returns, assuring
them that within a very few days he will
be on hand with something entirely 10
their suiting. Mr.. Leroy Farmer is in
terested with Mr.. Bledsoe in these pur-
chases.

THE VALUE OF AN INCUBATOR.

THE VALUE OF AN INCUBATOR.
An incubator is a great thing. Last
Saturday night the editor of this paper
retired to his yirtuous couch, with the
kindly injunction whispered in his ear
that he must get up about midnight and
take a look at the incubator, and see that
everything about that 200 capacity patent
hen was all right. Soon the powers OF
Somnus overcame him and he slept the
sleep of the just. After a refreshing nap,
seemingly of only a few moments dura-
ton, he felt the gentle dig, dig, dig, of an
elbow drawn up at an angle of twenty
degress-such as spouses are wont to dig
with when arousing drowsy husbands
from that sweet repose an easy conscience
gives.
Dig, dig, dig.
"Ahgh!"
Dig, dig, dig.
"Hallo, Aowughl"
Dig, dig, dig.
"Hallo, what's up?"
let up and go see about the incubator.
Every egg in it might get roasted and you
here snoozing away like a log!" Mote
We have seen a million logs, and never
heard a solitary one OF them snooze. We
don't believe logs do nooze either.
Well, he got up and in passing his mar
BILE top bureau ran against an open draw
err. A burglar had entered the house
while he slept and had got as far as this
drawer in exploring for some exchanges
for what else would he expect to find al
an EDITORS house worth carrying off
However, had he tackled the editors pant
aloons he would actually nave ound fl
teen cents in the cash drawer of the same
but these he seems to have missed.
He was evidently put to flight by Mrs
Editors efforts to send her lord out to at
tend to the incubator; and that is why W
say an incubator is a great thing.
