Last Sunday eve, November 18th,
Mr.. Murry FuImer and Miss Mary
F'ulmer, the charming daughter of
Mr.. D. Cal Fulmer, accompanied by
Mr.. Sam Wiggers with Miss El7ie
Fulmer, sister of the bride, drove to
the parsonage near St. Peters (Piney
Woods) church, and there we're made
man and wife by Rev. E j. Sox.
Then after the knot was tied they
quietly drove back down to Mr.. D.
Gal Fulmer's where they served a
supper. The table was loaded with
bounties and delicious eatables.
We wish them long, happy and
successful life, and take upon their
shoulders the burdens of life and
bear them easy.
Yes they married Murry and Mary,
To live in the kitchen and dairy;
Murrv is a farmer, so he will plow,
Mary, the lnilkmaid, to milk the COW;
He will take upon his shoulders the bur
dens Of life,
To be accompanied by his good wife;
And 60 through life with straight face
And never eat without saying grace;
Well, we will bid them farewell,
And wait for another wedding bell;
Who do you think it will be?
Don't know, but will wait and see;
Guess he will be farmer to plow.
And get one that can milk COW.
A Young Sporter.

Women and Men.

"Men," she said, are continually
asking in the newspapers the ques-
tiops:
"'Why does woman always want
to know if her hat is on straight?'
"'Why does she sharpen pencils
with her husbands razor?'
"'Wby will she ruin $50 gown
in struggle to save two cents at a
bargain counter 2
Il think it is about time We women
should retaliate on the men with
some questions like these:
"'Why does man when he finish
es with newspaper always throw it
in heap on the floor instead Of fold
ing it up neatly?
"'Why when sent to look for some
thing in bureau or closet does be
always return and say it isn't there?'
"'Why when pretty girl praises
another mans looks does he sneer
and say the girl is soft t7'
"'Why is his Sunday morning
headache always due to what be ate,
not to what he drank, on Saturday
night? 2
"'Why as be laughs at women
does be fail to perceive that women
find much of the ludicrous in him 2"

great need of hay, straw, corn pota-

Havad, of Kebele (Post Marosvasarhe-

large potatoes, with plenty of sugar
content, for fattening. Prices in Bu-

necessary. Shipments can be made by
the Cunard steamers to Finne, the port
