Births

This has been a turrible bizzy week for the stork in Bingville and 1t fills us with grate joy to say so.
 On Tuesday a boy was born to MT. ana Mrs. Theophilus Stebbins, who lives over Pea Ridge way mile from the main road north of Bingville. Doc. Livermore of fishiated and brought the child into the world successful. Doc. also treated The ophiluses' horse for collie during his visit and managed to get enuff outen both jobs to have meat on the table twise a week for quite a spell to come.
 MT and Mrs. Dave Wilkins, also or Bingville, added girl to our populashion. As they have six other girls Dave and his wife didn't enthuse over the latest one as much as they expected to and wisht she was a boy; but it is all over now and they might as well try to make the best of it insted of repining. Doc. Livermore also offishiated at this func- shion.
 Then just as we go to press we learn that Doc has been called to the home of Ike Witherspoon to assist in givin birth to a child whose sex we do not know, being as it hadn't been borned at last ac- | counts. We are sorry for this, but it aint our fault.
 We like to hear of these births. It not
 only adds to the populashion of Bingville hut it also gives Doc. LiveFmore steady work as a physician: helps Hen Weath- ersby sell verbs and dry goods; helps

 friendly game Bige said his head was ack- in him some but he would play one game
 Sam said he didn't have his specks with
 him and twant no use to play like
 blind man. Hen rigged them a little. and after a spell they agreed to play one game for the segars. Unbekncwnst to Bige and Sam, Hen had glued a checker on the king row on each side of the board and had the checkers set out
 on the board reddy to play. Bige moved
 his men purity fast and finally placed one
 man so's Sam would hafto jump and
 then Bige he was agoin to take three of
 Sam's men. Sam seed whot Bige was up to and as he went to jump anuther way he took holdt of the glued checker and lifted the whole board offen there laps spillin the checkers all over the floor. The way Bige swore was something orful to lissen to, and worse to print in a first class newspaper like the BugIe, until Hen stopt laffin and showed Bige, both check CTS glued on the board. When Bige and Sam cooled down they both shuk hands and Hen he treated all hands to a chew
