Alter the feast came the flow of oratory ihlerspersed with most delighttu! music by the Gree For est string band.
 Interesting addr essos were mad @ by pr. K. G Floyd and Z. P, Freeman of Eureka Springs, Mr. Lane of IIIluols, F, 0 Butt and A, J. Russell ot Green Forest.
 The success Of this occasion is indeed very creditanIo to our Odd Fellows lodge. While all ot the talks were we'll pointed and equal Iy well received, MT. Butt seems to have more completely caHght the crowd, probably on account of hts suiJ ect, winch was "the Re- beckahs.' Mr. Butt never fails 10 interest his hearers on any sub jecl.

Tbe amount of supplies that are being taken into and out ot Eureka fs enough to convince the doubting Thomases of the certainty of the new Railroad. It is nothing to see wagons going over the proposed line loaded down with Staple and Fancy groceries such as sugar, cot tee, tea, -four, meat, corn, tomatoes, peaches, aprlcots, oysteEs, crack CTS, fake hominy, oatmeal, beans and potatoes. This is intended to feed the many employees of ths. construction companies, and the construction company that has the contract tor the grading near Greeh Forest vii buy their groceries from Foster fer he carries the freshest line of staple and fancy groceries in Carroll county.

A man who does not take his home paper, but occasionally an- swers advertisements is "3tory papers, has had some interesting experiences lately. He learned that by sending one dollar to a Yankee, he could get a cure for drunkeness Sure encngh he did It was to "take d. pledge and keep it." Later on he sent 50 2cenl stamps to fnd out how to raise tn:nips successfully. He found out-'.Just take hold of the :op> and pull" Being young he wish ed to marry and sent 34 I-eeni stamps loa Chicago firm to learn how to nake an impression. W hen the answer camel 1t read: "Slt down ca q pan of dough That was little rough on a patient man, though he would yet succeed. The next advertisement he answered read: "How to double your money in six months" He was told to convert his money into bills, told them and he would see his money doubled The next time he sent tor l2 houshold articles and got a package of needles. He was slow to learn, so he sent a dollar to find out 'how to get rich. He was told to ''work like the al aud never spend q cent" Tha. stopped him but his brother wrote to tind eat Chow to write d letter without pen or ink" H was instructed to use a lead pencil. He sent So to learn how to live without work, and was told ito catch suckers lisk e We do."
 Uncle Billy Jenkins residing southeast of town, has invented q new scheme to settle with an m scrupu!ous sewing nmching com pany Though he employed a somewhat unusual method, DO hon est man will, under the circum stahc ces, crilcise his plan, In any event Uncle Billy is not ashamed Of the coarse he persued. He had, some throe or four months ago, given his note Co d certain sewing mach ne company tora S5o sewing machine, which was then aud there explained to him to proSide that he should have certain credits upon the uote and that he WAS to have three or four years in which to pay off the remainder. A few days ago he had learned from some of his. duped neighbors that the com pany's collector was making his rounds, demanding full and com rlete settlement at once. This put Uncle Billy on his guard, so he gathered np q nice arn ful of dry brush and laid il by the freside awaiting the arrival of the afore. saad collector. In a day or so the collector put in bis appearance and at the same time Uncle Billy also put the dry brush on the fire and called for his note. The col ector quickly fsIcd it from his large book, handed it to him, little sns pecting the drama thnt was then aud there 10 be enacted. Uncle Billy quickly tore his signature from ihe note and dashed 1t into the flaming fire and banded the di lapidated remainder 10 the dumb. foended collector, who made q ,S perate effort to recover the sigma. iure trom the funeral pyre, but without saceess, but not without schorcthing his lilly white hands. Although the collector become ira,e and said something aoout stealing, sheriff, and pemitentiary, il IS needless to say that he was willing to settle with Uncle Billy according to the original contract.
