m aQe III out uOOfS IN large WASH ket-
tie so you see he wanted the boys to +
have a good lot of it as he was in sym
patty for them for haxing sold their
shoes for fiddle. There were ashes
and live Goals of fire for considerable
distance around the kettle and it came
to pass when tho butter was about done |
that Lasater left the kettle of butter in
the care of Leander and went into the
house to get some extracts to flavor it,
and while he tarried in the house Lee
ander decided to try some of the butter. |
So he took out some in gourd and was
eating to his hearts content. He be-
came so delighted over the delicious
butter that be leaped for Joy, and as
there were ashes and live Goals of fire |
around the kettle he raised such dust T,
that the kettle was spoiled, and unfor- !
tunately he stamped his feet on the
live Goals and was severely burned
When Lasater returned from the house
be was surprised and very sorry to see
and learn the misfortune but he having
on hand good supply of Dr. Graysons
Magnetic Powaers, which are a certain
cure for burns, took him into his office
and treated his case. The Magnetic
Powders relieved his feet and he was
able to attend church Sunday.
While Smith was raising that awful
dust around the kettle the Owl of Hicks
Chapel few by and saw the dust that
Smith was raising and heard the rat
thing of his buekskin pants, he became
so frightened that he few away with
all his might and told that the butter
was scorched. Lasater says he will
have to make the boys another kettle
of butter but will be careful not to let
them get near it while it is being made.
The Roman notations, or xxx of
Paramount, stated in last weeks News
that Sorrow corn would produce quarts
of sour mash per gallon. He don't
know any more about that corn than
hog does about side pockets. We don't
like to have the old Sorrow misrepresen-
ted in such way as he has done.
That corn swells and produces 16 quarts
of sour mash and makes first class 'owl
soup"

Notation, of Paramount. You know he
said that Leander Smith and | passed
through with a couple of hand organs
