Close Call

What came near being a very
serious accident befell Mr. W J.
Trimble on Thursday evening last
lie was bringing a load of corn
from Bath. and, about opposite Dir
II Fl Terry's, on Jackson's River
where the road skirts the bluff, III
attempting to evade an obstruction
in the road, his wagon went over
the steep EN- bankment at tire foot
of which the river flows. There
were four horses attached, and all
went over, taking Mr. Trimble
along.
The wagon turned over two or
three times and lodged against a
sappling. Strange to say. the horses
we're not seriously hurt, and Mr..
Trimble escaped with a bruised
knee. The corn. which was in bags,
was recovered, some of it, we were
told, tumbIing into the river.
We have not seen any one who as
sisted in the rescue of the team and
wagon, but learn that several hours
were consumed in getting things
back into the road.
The marvel is that no more dam
age was done. The obstruction
was either a bank Of snow or a
landslide, to pass which, the public
was forced to 60 dangerouly near
the steep bank. The accident at
fords both warning and a lesson
and ought to work good to the
county.

Obituary

The friends Of Jno P Hise and
family were shocked to bear OF the
death of their son, Willie, which
occurred on the 21st day OF Feb.
1908. This is one common level
to which we must all submit. But
no one knows what it is to part
with child till death comes in
their own home. -,
Willie was loved by all who
knew him and though he was only
4 years, IL months and IL days old.
the Giver of every good and per-
feet gift saw fit to take him to a
better home where we may meet
him again in the sweet by and by
and where sickness and death never
come.
Though he was sick but a short
time he bore it with great patience
and was laid to rest in the family
burying ground the following Sun
day. A neighbor.

Dear Sir:-A few years ago q
New York daily got-up'a great ag'
itation for dollar gas, and got 1t.
The State passed the law, and the
people liked it, Of course, till the
bills came-in. The bills were big
ger, not less; the law didn't say
what the gas should be.
The price Of a gallon honest
paint is $1.75; but there's paint"
all the way from IS cents to Sl.7s
A popular price is S1.25; there are
scores Of paints at that price.
Like dollar gas.
lf$1.75 is the price Of a gallon
Of honest paint, you may be quite
sure there are scores Of paints at
all prices from that down, with
paint enough in them to pass for
paint. And what are you going to
do about it?
1t takes from 81 to 81 gallon
to pay the painter for doing his
work. Is it worth while to pay 81
to 81 a gallon for brushing.on
pant half whitewash?
No; the expense Of that extra
and useless labor makes counter
felt paint cost more than true.

The strongest one of the eight.
