Being SENT OUT

The chancery clerks office is busy
today making out notices to persons
whose lands were sold for taxes in
1907 for unpaid taxes for the year
of 1906. There are about 40 of these
notices that are to be sent out to de-
linquent tax payers, who have now
only short time in which to redeem
their lands or titles will vest with
the parties who purchased them at the
sheriff's sale of delinquent lands.
The law requires the chancery clerk
to make out these notices and he is
allowed rs cents for each notice. They
are turned over to the sheriff who is
required to serve them on the de-
linquents and for this he receives 81. so
for each service made.
This is the last chance to redeem
lands sold for taxes in March, 1907.
The parties who redeem the lands
will have to pay the purchasers the
full amount they have paid out with
20 per cent damage.

One Peril of Dentistry.

THE greatest snag a dentist can run
up against" said one of the clan, lis
the office of deceased dentist, whose
widow would like competent man to
take his place. You see such adver.
tisements all over. Beware of them.
There's a double meaning to that in
sidious ad. You must not only take
his place as competent dentist, but
If the widow takes shine to you, you
must replace him also as a husband
ITS terrible. Positively the only
way I got out of 1t alive in one in.
stance was to do such poor dentistry
that the people wouldn't come to me
even to get their teeth pulled. AT that
l think if l had showed the slightest
willingness to learn the trade she
would have permitted me to fill the
place OF second husband and dentist
combined"
