That Mad Dog Killed.
From the Everett Press.

From the Everett Press.
The mad dog that did so much
damage in Rays Cove last week
was killed by Albert Hinish and
George Ritchey, near the foot of
the mountain. Before being kill
ed however the vicious brute had
bitten about a dozen head of cattle
and a number Of hogs. Seven
head of cattle belonging to Levi
Ritchey were bitten. Ed. Feight
had several cattle bitten. Harvey
Welsh had his two cows bitten
and he killed both of them. They
were the only cows he owned. A
low estimate places the stock bit
ten by the dog atS500.00. This is
certainly an extraordinary record
for one dog. 1t is very doubtful
policy to kill stock because they
have been bitten by "mad dog. "
Cows could be penned and devel-
opments noted.

LOCUST GROVE.

Interesting Children's Day
services were held at the Lower
church Saturday evening, June
Odd. The pulpit was tastefully
decorated with flowers by the
young ladies of the school and
the part rendered by each in turn
was very creditable to the per-
former and to the efficient Super
intendent, Mr. Harry Plessinger.
Miss Belle Diehl had charge of
the music, which was fine. There
was a large attendance, a number
of folks being present from Side
ling Hill, and from all the town
ships adjacent. Remarks were
made by Rev, Himas Mellott and
by Rev. A. w. May, both gentle
men giving the young folks eX-
cellent advice.
At half-past nine last Sunday
morning Rev. May preached at
the Lower church. At the close
of services here, nearly all of the
large congregation went to the
Whips Cove church to hear Rev.
Himas Mellott preach the late
Samuel Mellott's funeral sermon.
Samuel Mellott was a Baptist.

The Best Age For Men to Marry.

Edward Box, writing in The Ladies

under % years of age is in any sense
competent to take unto himself q wife.
Before that age he is simply boy who
has absolutely nothing which he can
of1@o a girl as a safe fundation for
Mt happiness. He is uniformed in his
character. unsettled in his ideas. alb
solutely ignorant of the first essentials
Of what consideration or love for a
woman means. He doesn't know him
self, let alone knowing a woman. He
is full of fancies. afN it is his boyish
nature to fit from one fancy to an
other.
HE is incapable of the affection up
on which love is based. because he has
not lived long enough to know what
the feeling or even the word means.
H4.s full or theories, each one of
which, when he comes to put it into
practice. will fail He is a boy pure
and simple. passing through that try
ing period through which every boy
must pass before he becomes n man.
But that period is not the marrying
time. For as his opinions of life are

girl be esteems as the only girl in the
world to make him happy. The man
OF 80 rarely weds the girl whom he
fancied when he was 90"

In recent editorial on the above
caption the Fort Worth Mail Tele
gram says:
The people of the United States
will continue for another period Of
time to pay tribute to the god of
war, through the medium of the
pink and blue pastors which are
attached to every document or tel
egram, every paster being in
scribed internal revenue. For
two years the people of the United
States have submitted to the i'm
position, but now that conditions
are shown to be what they are, it
is believed universally that the tax
should be discontinued. The re-
ceipts of the federal government
are largely in excess of the eXpen-
ditures. Secretary Gage has esti-
mated the excess for the current
year at $40, ,OO0,O 900, but the prob
ability is that the amount will run
far beyond that, probably nearer
the 500, ,000,0 mark. No expla
nation can be given, no reason can
be advanced and no excuse can be
offered for the heavy imposition Of
taxes upon the people. Congress
has reached the end of its session
without granting any relief what
ever, and the telegram of the mer-
chant, the deed of the dealer in
real estate, and the check on the
banker will continue to be on par
with the barrel of whisky from the
distillery, or the cask of beer from
the brewery. Annually the gov
ernment of the United States Is
taking about $44, 600, 900 from the
pockets of the people through the
medium Of the stamp taxes. Tbi:
is enormous, but the burden o
payment is but a small mattel
when compared to the annoyanc.
and irritation which is caused b!
the enforcement of the stamp taI
law. The people are tired of it
