Gid's Nose Ground

Gid smaiiey met with a very painful though interesting axident last Saturday. Gid was trying to sharp carving knife for his wife on the grindstone in the back yard. He got little Tommy Barker to turn the grindstone for him while he held the knife As everybody knows Gid is turrlble near sighted. We'll, in order to see what he was doing he had to git his face right close to the grindstone and in doing this he got his face too closeand his nose come fin contact with the. grind stone which was going at turribie speed and before Cid could exeare the stone had ground all the skin often the end of his nose. Gid got mad and took the carv- ing knife into his wife and told her if she desired that knife sharpad she would haft to get somebody else to sharp 1t for her. as he had got enough of 1t. Cid is now wearing sticking plaster on his nose which gives him Q very comikal appear- ance.

NARRER RXGAPF

Hike o0inby and Sam Peters had a awful & hair raising excape from instant .deth last Thursday from which they will never forget Hike and Sam started out deer hunting. They had only ons gun between thern--a old nuzzle leading shot gun which HiAe's grandpap used to use 50 or more years ago. AThey mad a lot of powder and some caps but they didn't have no shot so they used old nail heads which they callxilated would be jest as good. They hadn't any more than left home until what should they see but a partridge and Hike who had the gun biazed away and missed the partridge. but to their awful disappointment the hammer of the gun flew of and they couldn't find 1t no where. While they was hunting for the gun hammer they heard a noise and looked around and there stood a big buck deer Sam whispered to Hike to shoot it.. Then 1t dawned on them how was they a going to shoot the deer without no hammer to the gun until Sam he told Hike to take a keerfuI aim at the deer and he (Sam) would explode the cap by Hitting it with 1 bIOnS. GO 1llho uO SABheo0 sAA9 8NA eAtea said. 'sReddyr' and Sam he brought down the stone and hit Hike on the thumb smashing same. The gun went off and come within a foot of blowing sam's head of. Sam told Hike he ought to be keerful where he shoots and Hike told Sam he ought to be keerful where he strikes. Then they returned home. The buck excaped.

The warty, red-nosed, lop-eafed editor of that pusillanimous travesty on a ai- leged newspaper known as the Hard- scrabble Banner published intermittentIy at blot on the map II miles west of this city, who called at this office last week and assalted us in the privacy of our office Ga full acct. of which appeared in last weeks Bugle) while we was get ting ready to assalt him, took occashion in the next issue of his cupboard shelf cov- ering to state that he mad licked Us sim gle handed alone on our own dunghill and hoped that he had teached us to know our place in the world.
 Then he went on to make fun of us because we have a nounced in the eoi- ums of the Boogle that we perpose to become a candidate for the legislature. Since the occurrence of last week we desire to state that 1t is matter of total indifference to US what the editor of the Hardscrabble Banner thinks about us or says about us. As for us we don't care a cold potato what he thinks or says. In the future we shall treat his blasphemous and imbesile vaperings with silent con- tempt as they deserve. We regret that we did not do this in the past If he thinks he can injure US by anything he can print in his calamity howler he is mistaken -- his circulashion ain't big enough. He claims that he prints about 240 copies. The facts is he prints about g copies and they are borrowed from house to house which is how he gets his alleged circuiashion. And even when a person in Hardscrabble borrows the Ban ner from neighbor and reads every thing in it, he don't get something for nothing-he gets nothing for nothing, shaf's what he gets.
 Our past may not be entirely free from calumny, but so far as we can recollect we was never arrested for hoss stealing and had to leave the county where we was born and raised and go elsewhere for our health in order to live it down. We don't squander our money in drink and riotous living and we don't have proboscis on us that looks like a red hollyhock. We don't never get mad and beat our wife, and being as we'll ac- quainted with our wife as we are, we never will. We ain't pigeon-toed or wall eyed and we don't go through life chew ing other peoples tobacco and trying to borrow a gal. of hard cider.
 We dismiss anything which the editor of the Hardscrabble Banner has to say about us as unworthy of our notice. and we shall continue to do this in the future. We shall ignore the ignoreamus.
