Personal Mentchion

Felt almost cool enuff to frost agin
a few nights back, and we notised that
a blanket felt purity comfortable lords
morning.
However, we are glad to a nounce
that it diddent frost, which only goes
to show that appearances is sometimes
deceivin.
We wish to say that it has been some
time sinst we have secured a new sub
scriber AS rule we git a new sub
scriber every cupple of wks, but we
amt had one now for nearly a month.
Why is this? In our opinion the Boogle
is better than ever, and we cant I'M
derstand the publicl apathy lords this
newspaper.
Miss Milly Underwood, who goes in
a good cal for dress, has purchased
what she calls a pair of open-worlI
stockings. In our opinion any girl who
goes in for dress amt very we'll drest
when she wears these kind of stock
ings which muskeeters can bite through,
and besides they must be turrible cool
this time of yr. However, everybuddy
to their taste
Jim Hicks, who runs saw mill on
Snake Bend settlement, offered Hank
Dewberry a job last wk at doller per
day and found. Hank, who amt did a
lick of work this summer, TUX the job,
and the first morning he went to work
what did he do but set down on a log
that was being sawed and went plumb
off to sleep, and if Jim Hicks haddent
ysnked. Hank often the log jest in time
he would of been sawed in two. Hank
he quit the job right there. Jim give
him quarter for the time he had
worked and Hank returned to Bing-
vile. Hank says the saw mill business
is too risky for him.
We guess this is all the Personal
breYities we can think of at this time.

Hiram Cranky made big mistake
last wk when he purchased pr of
rubber boots at Hen Weathcrsby's store
which was too small for him and drawd
his feet 50 that he cant wear EN-, and
now Hen wont take EN- back being as
they have been wore, and as result
Hi has the boots on his hands, but he
hopes to dispose of en- soon, being as
he has marked en- down to $2.45 cts,
whereas he paid $3.50 for EN-. Emmy
pnrson desiring pr of rubber boots,
No. los, apply to Hi. Hi thinks he
could wear a pr of No. rs without EN-
pincfl;ng him.
Mel Skinner ketched a ttfrrible cold
II, his head last NIX which made him
ueariv coff his head often his shoulders,
and to make matters worse this wk the
cold has vert and moved from Mels
chest I'D into his head Betwixt the
two. Mel says, he would ruther have a
cold in his chest than his head. He
also saws he would like to know where
the dognashion he ketched his cold at.
We expect 10 nave SOILc HUE cx-
pense along lords the last of this month
and we wouid like to make range
n,ents with arf or two persons in Bing-
viI.c or =: my to subscribe for the
Bugle (iint-ss they already be sub
scripers). and we also wish to say that
they must pay cash strickly in advance
No others need apply. Go ahead ard
subscribe!
Local items amt quite so plentiful
this wk as ushual Well, that's the way
it goes-soms wks they are and SOME
wks they amt. However, what the
above locals loses in numbers is made
I'D in length. There amt very many d
EN-, as you might say, but each one fills
a good cal of space for local item.
Them as amt paid us nothink on sub
scripshion for many yrs will confer 4
favor on the editor of the Boogle BY
reading very carefully the edditoriul
which appears in this wks BooAle.

Bud on the
Rampage!
Bud Hinckley Who Amt Quite
Right in His Head Stirred Bing-
vile up TunihIe Last Thursday
Full PartickIers as Give per
Below!

Bud Hinckley, who amt quite right
in his head, & son of the Widow Hinck-
ley, who is very estin1able woman in
spite of the fackt that she's got simple
son. This, however, amt no refleck-
shion on the widow, being as she is as
bright and smart and intelligent as
can be.
1t is Our opinion that Bud never got
none of his simpleness from his mother
but from his father, old Alb Hinckley,
who passed away many yrs ago. Alb
wasn't quite right in his head neither,
jest like Bud. and therefore Bud come
BY what he amt got in his head honest,
as you might say.
Sometimes Bud is worsen other times
and last Thursday was one of the days
he was worse.
First thing Bud done after he had
ct his breakfast was to rig up a fish
hook on the end of string. Then Bud
he stuck the fish hook through a grain
of corn and throwed the grain of corn
with the fish hook into it over into
Anne Hillyer's hen yard and awaited re-
suits, which wassent very long in COM
ing.
Ame's big domineclzer rooster, which
Anne takes good cal of pride in, seen
the grain of corn fall on the ground
and made a dash for it and swallered
il and the next minnit the rooster had
the hook in his throat and begin to pull
on the string and squawk sometllink
turrible, while Bud held on to tother
end of the string and hollered louder
than the rooster could squawk.
Anne, who was in the house at the
time heerd the racket and run out and
when he seen what Bud had did he
grabbed him by the nape OF the neck
and cufed him over the ears until Bud
stopped latin and begin to boiler and
bawl.
Buds mother heerd him and rushed
20 his rescue and when she seen Anne
cutting her Bud she laid holt of Anne
and jerked him until she shuls his false
teeth outen his mouth. Then she slapt
him in the face until one eye is sweld
shct still and tore his coat and made
him apologize and beg for mercy for
abusing her son, who amt quite right
in his head anyhow. The rooster will
die.
After this was over Bud he wan
dered down street until he come to Cy
Hoskins' buggy shed. which was open
at both ends, being as Lem Brown had
Jest vanished Cy's buggy for him and
had propped the doors open so as the
air could git through and help TO dry
the Yarnish. Well, Bud he stuck his
fingers aginst the varnish on the buggy
to see If it was dry yet, and when he
found it wassent he thort it would be
a good joke to throw dust ali over the
buggy, which he did, and the dust stuck
to the varnish and now the buggy viii
haft to be>all sandpapered agin and var
nishcd over.
From here Bud he went TO Hen
Weathersby's store about noon. There
was nobuddy in the store but Hen, and
he had dropt of to sleep. so Bud he
snuk into the store and rummaged
around until he found some cannon

crackers which Hen had left over from
the last 4th of July, and Bud he TUX
one and found a match and lit the fuse
of it and poked it under Hens chair
and then run outcn the store and
peeked through the door.
When the cannon cracker exploded
under Hen he woke up with turrible
yell of anguish and give jump into
the air and landed with one leg in the
cracker bari and tother foot in key
of salt mackerel Then with another
howl Of despair he run outen the store
and diddent stop running until he was
half way home. Then with great pres
ence of mind Hen returned to the store,
thinking some of the. sparks might of
set it on fire, but they haddent.
Bud done some other mischief that
same day, but these we have men
chioned is the worst.
If Bud Hinckiey is going to acl1t like
this, it is our opinion that somethink
ort to be did with him. He ort to be
put into reform school or somewheres
where he wouldn't be mennace to sos

that there win be menny readers
who wouldn't know where it come

loved pastor, preached sermon on
this same text, and at the time we
heerd the sermon we tf1ort It would

eddytoriul and made a note of it
according, so here it Is:
| Judging from the way Bingvifle
folks have treated us sinst we have
been eddftor & prop. of the Bugle
for 10, these menny yrs. agone, it
is our humble opinion that there
amt no more than one citizen outen
la hundred IN Bigville land we
amt got only about 800 inhabitants
in Greater Bingville all told, in
Iclooding men, wirnmen, Children,
dogs and cats)-we say it's our
opinion that there amt more than
enc citizen outen a 100 in Bine-
willie, who believes in his heart that
it is more blessed to give than to
receive.
| If they did we caililate they
world give as sone.hirk on back

don't some of these dead beets

ask?

will wake up some morning and
find the sherifs notis tackled on
