South Side.

Lick you would get Licked"
The hottest battles of war up TO
date have been fought at the cross
roads saloons where scbooners were
maneuvering over the bar.
The White Sulphur band, led by
"West End" rendered some very
fine music at the grand entertain
ment at lower Salt Lick on the
18th inst.
Not only do the young people of
Olympian Springs dance in spite Of
the preachers, but they rub il in by
dancing to a waltz arrangement Of
Nearer, My God, to Thee"
We are very much gratified that
our West End friend needed our
suggestion and is now seasoning
his greens with buffalo perch, and
we now hope he will not have an
other accident.
A South Side girl thinks it
shOckingly immodest for men of
war to be stripped for battle. Dust
the bushes from your fair face,
young lady; the term is applied to
the ships, not the jolly tars who
man them.
Did you ever notice the anxiety
manifested by mothers for their
boys2 IL n boy could only be de-
veloped into the man his mother
would have him to be what a race
of noble, manly men the world
would see.
When you notice a man digging
in the garden very slowly, stopping
often to rest and cussin' occasion
ally it's safe to say his wife has got
him to work; but if he be digging
like good fellow, never stopping
to rest, and whistling popular
air. he's after worms for bait.
South Side has 4-year-old boy
whom about six months ago some
member of the family who didn't
know any better learned to fuse the
weed" and now the little fellow
bankers after twill even cry vo-
ciferously for it. He will chew and
spit like an old man.
Grant North shaved off his mus,
tache because "the girls did moi
like to play pickle and pop" with
him, for his mustache tickled then
noses. If Grant had played with
the girls that say "a kiss without q
mustache is like eating an ege
without salt" he would not have
had to sacrifice his handsome mus
tache.
We were invited to attend the
wedding of Prof. Kimbrell, but
sorry to say, we did not have the
pleasure to hear Judge Ramsey per
form the ceremony that makes two
hearts futter as one. We hope tina
the Prof. and his beautiful bride
may live to be Of a good old age
and always walk on a bed of roses
and when called across the great
river go hand in hand to the Neg
Jerusalem.
A REMEDY AGAINST FLIEs.-"l
never use window screens" said a
wise boIsekeeper the other day
"bccause l have fancy that they
shut out all the air in hot weather
and besides they serve to keep tho
flies in the house equally as well a.
to keep them out" But never SET
a fly in your house." said her friend
show do you manage it? For my
part l must confess that. scree Us al
no screens, my summer meaLs t.
me one long battle with the it'll,
pests" My remedy is a very sim
pie one" said the good housekeep
err; land l learned it years agt
from nv grandmother when / uset
to watch her putting punches o
lavender flowers around to keep tn
flies away. My method is simple
buy five cents worth of oil o.
lavender at the drug store and mil
it with the same quantity of water
Then l put it in a common glas
atOmizer and spray it around tn,
rooms wherever flies are apt to con
gregate, especially in the dining
room, where l sprinkle it plentiful
ly over the table linen. The odor Il
especially disagreeable to flies, ant
they will never venture into it,
neighbOrhood, though to most PEG,
pie it has a peculiarly fresh anG
grateful SMELL" II shall certainly
give it a trial, said the other woman
