Remember if you want your
items printed in the paper you
must send your name along. Not
necessarily for publication, but as
evidence of good faith. If an edi-
tor printed all the stuff that was
mailed him he would get in all
kinds of trouble.
The REGISTER office is the only
place in the county where you can
get first-class printing. If you
don't believe it come inland we'll
show you samples of our work and
samples of the other fellows work.

liable.

A horse belonging to H. M. Col
Inns, the livery man, standing in
front of the Commercial Hotel, got
frightened at one of the automo-

broke loose from the post where
he was hitched and started down
the street on a dead rum. The
frightened animal attempted to
round the court house corner, but
was going at such speed that he
could not control himself and
dashed into Whitworth's hardware
store, breaking his skull and dy-
ing in five minutes. The buggy
was not greatly damaged.

The following, dated Middle
brook, February 10th, addressed
to the gentleman in charge of the
Budweiser Depot, here, is self
explanatory "Dear Frtend:-I re-
ceived a letter and check for $500.
Many thanks. Now I notice you
dam me; that was not needed, as
| am damned enough. I worked
at a dam, paid for a dam, belonged
to a dam club, and had a dam HARD
time with the dam, and still AIM
got no dam. But | got into the
dam like the rest of the dam fell
lows, and now they want me tc
keep the dam because the Dam
President played thunder with the
dam. Now, don't you try to dam
me, but dam yourself, and when.
ever another dam man calls or
you to join a dam club you take
your dam club and lay that dan
man out, and you will be making
business for yourself, as that dan
man will need a coffin; that is the
best way to settle the dam bust
ness"
