 Jim Hill of Sorrow Hollow walked ali the way from the Hollow to Bing- vile last Wednesday. This is pretty good walk for Jim who is afflickted with corns.

Lost a Bst

Plutarch Stone down to Hen Weath- ersby's store tother night was talking about how strong he was.
 Plutarch said that when he was young and in his prime he could pick up bari of flower, put 1t on his sholder and walk of with it and that he gest he could do the same thing now in pinch.
 Snide Petersby asked Piutarch If he could lift hisself by his boot-straps and Plutarch said of course he could; that he had did it many time. Snide then offered to bet Plutarch seegars for the crowd in the store that he couldn't do t and Plutarch took the bet. He hauled of his coat and took of his hat and spit on his hands and put his forehngers in each of his outside boot-straps; then he asked Suide if he was ready and Snide said he was and to go ahed and lift hisself
 Plutareh pulled and hauled and lifted and grunted until one boot-strap broke and Plutarch went over backwards and hit his head hard enuff on the floor to fracktchure his skull for him.
 Everybody present agreed that Snide had won the bet so Hen Weathersby, prop. of our general store passed the seegars around and told Plutarch that the bill was 45 cts. Plutarch told him he would haft 10 trust him being as he hadn't that much loose change on his person and Hen told Piutarch he reck- oned if he had 10 trust him it would be many years before them seegars was paid for after which Plutarch put on his coat and hat and started home in deer disgust

Anne Hillyer, our talented ioryer and legal light, J. of the P. Notary Publick, Real estate Dealer and other things, etcettary too noonrus to mentchion is also engaged in the inshurance business and just at present Anne is trying to get most l of our respeckted citizens of Bing- vile and visinity to inshure their worthless lives and also their prop critics against personal decease, fires or acksidents.
 It has always been more or less jof a question in our editorial mind as to whether life insurance or fire
 insurance really pays. < Take Old Dad Henderson for instance-Dad has carried $500 worth of life in-
 shurance on his life-for the past 35
 years and Old Dad is alive yet. What has Dad ever realized outen inshuring his life7 We answer mo- thing.
 Dad says that he's carried this insurance so long now and has paid out so much money to keep it | up that he's affeered to let go of it because he might lose what he's put into it and the insurance like wise. Dad says he's in a turrible perdickament and wishes to good ness he had never took any inshur- ance on his life being as he calcki- lates he would of lived just as long and been good cal happier. Then take a example of fire ir- shurance. There's Jethro Jennings -Jethro he inshured his barn for $700 10 yrs. ago and kept 1t up for I7 yrs. and Jeth had to rake and sclSrape and deny hisself in order to keep it up. Finally at the end of 2 yrs. Jethro he let his fire in shurance eckspire and the very next night he went out to the barn just before he went to bed to see if the stock was all right and was smok- | ing his old corn-cob pipe and acksi- dentally let spark fall into the hay and returned to the house and went to bed only to be woke up by his wife a hour later with his barn on fire and half burnt down.
 The Bingville fire dept. respond ed as promptly as ushual but it will be remembered that before they arrove on the scene of the confla- lgrashion there was nothing left of the barn but huge smoldering ruin
 to throw water on.
 Jeth says the only thing he's got
 against insurance is that when a feller's life is inshured he never
 seems to die and when a feller's
 bildings is inshured they never seem
 to burn down until after the inshur-
 ance has eckspired.

 Hod, he wandered round until he come to Sim Petersby's house where he woke up the folks and was took in and put to bed.
 It seems that Mel went to sleep and that old horse took him back to Snake Bend and landed him at his very door. Mel didn't disckover until the next day after he had reckovered his sobriety that the reason he thought he was going up hill all the time was because the wheels on the blackboard had been changed and that the forard end of the buck-boart was nearly foot higher than the back end.
 Hod walked from Petersby's to Snak' Bend the next day and apologized tt Mel for saying he was full, but the jok' leaked out and everybody is talking about it.
