Mada a Bad sknh

siIas Goolins. whose hair has been growing long on him for the past several years and has needed a haircut turrible bad for long spell back. made up his mind to have his hair took offen his head since it became so warm. But si don't believe in paying Harve Hines. our ton- sorial artist, 2Scts. for 2 haircut. SO he made up his mind he would cut his own hair. So he got pair of shears and stood up before the mirror and went to work. Si managed to cut good deal of hair of. He also managed to cut off the edge of his right ear and jabbed the shears into the back of his neck sl didn't make a very good job of it, being as he couldn't work very we'll with his hands while looking into the mirror, and as a result his hair Is long in some places and short in others. not to say nothing of cutting hisself up so with the shears. It is our opinion 1t would of been better if Si had of went to Harve in the first place even if 1t would of cost him a quarter.

We desire to ask in this editorial whot our Bingviile Board of Trade, wieh is also the Board of Helth and School Board, has been a-doing recent for the good of the town if anything2 They hasn't been no manufackshuries or mills or anything of that kind come in here so as you could notise if of late has there7 What is a board of trade for anyhow if it hain't for to do some good to the town by indooeing trade or nanufackshuries to come into our midst? When the members of our board of trade was eleckted into office didn't they say that they would do the town some good2 Have they did it? We answer, "Nol" they have not did it and It don't look to Us as if they are a-going to did it.
 How can you expect a town the size of Bingville to grow and improve and branch out, as you might say, unless the Board of Trade takes holt and does something7 All the misunderstanding industry which has came to Bingville sinst the Board of Trade was establish ed was Si Bean, who came here from the county seat and rented a part of Cy Hoskins's buggy shed and went into the business of manufackshurin9 bro- oms for sale, employing himself and nobody else, and turning out three bro oms a day, but he couldn't sell his brooms as fast as he could make lem and so Si got terrible disgusted and went back to the county seat where he comed from. That's the only manufaek- shuring interest wich has come into our midst for terrible spell back, and Si would of come if we hadn't of had no Board of Trade-it is our opinion that he would of come in spite of the Board of Trade,
 Cy Hoskins, who is chairman of the Board of Trade, received letter about two weeks ago from a citizen of Hard scrabble, saying that if desirable sight could be secured and Bingville would be willing to give bonus he would build a Patent Bunghole Factory in Bingville. Cy at once called meeting of the Board of Trade and it was de- cided to offer them a strip of land at the lower end of the town for the new enterprise. But they wasn't none of the Board of Trade members who could make out what bonus ment, so Cy he wrote right back that they could have piece of land, but that Bingville was all out of bonuses.
 The capitalist from Hardscrabble then writ another letter making all manner of fun of Cy and calling him a sucker and said he jist wrote that letter to have some fun with the Bingville Board of Trade and thought that Cy and the rest of the board was more ignorunter than he supposed being as they believed they was sich a thing as bunghole facktofy. It made Cy terrible mad to think that Hardscrabble was a-making sport of us and he showed his disgust by not even answering the last letter. Cy said he thort 1t would be better to simply treat it with silent content.
 But they is one thing sure, and that is if we want to grow until we git big enuG to be cald a metropolis our Board of Trade must wake up and git

Bill Almost Had Em

Bill Hepburn. our artistick blacksmith, almost nearly had a attack of snakes last week. but he is better at this writ ing. Bill purchased 10 gals of hard cider from Pete Rankin out Snake Bend way and kept his skin full of 1t for seven or eight days. Last Sunday Bill begin to notice that there was snakes in his bed. green spiders in his coffee and l00o- legged worms in his boots. He got out his old muzzle loader shot gun to kill the elephants which he said was in his blacksmith shop. Mrs. Hepburn irnme- diately sent for Doc. Livermore, who got Bill calmed down and give him medicin to make him sleep. Mrs. Hepburn found BiIs supply of hard cider and poured 1t all out on the ground. which seems like a shameful waste to person who knows enough to use hard cider with discresh- ion. In two days Bill was hisself again. and now he is able to go around without seeing any snakes at all.

VEGETABLES AS MEDICINES

Carrots are excellent for gout.
Cranberrics correct the liver. Aspar-
agus stimulates the kidneys. Water
crcss Is an excellent blood purifier.
Honey is a good substitute for cod
liver oil. Parsnips possess the same
virtues as sarsaparilla. Celery con-
tains sulphur and helps TO ward OH
rheumatism. Bananas are beneficial
to sufferers from chest complaints.
Celery is Il nerve tonic; onions also are
a tonic for the nerves. Bcctroot Is fat
tening and good for people who want
to put on flesh. Tomatoes are good
for torpid liver, but should be avoid
ed by gouty people. Lettuce has n
soothing effect on the nerves and is
excellent for sufferers from insomnia.
Spinach has great aperient qualities
and is far better than medicine for
sufferers from constipation. The juice
of a lemon is excellent for sore throat,
but should not be swallowed, but
used as gargle.
