HOT TIME FOR DELINQUENTs,

We clip the following from one of
our exchanges to warn our delinquent
subscribers what a hot time they will
have if they fail to pay their news
paper bills. The same fate awaits
our sloW-paying advertisers:
An editor who died of starvation
was being escorted to Heaven by an
angel sent for that purpose /" May
just glance in at the other place be-
fore we ascend to eternal happiness ?'
So they went below and skirmishing
around, taking in the sights. 1t so
happened that the angel lost track of
the editor and went around Hades
hunting him. He found him sitting
by an enormous furnace, tanning him
self and gazing with rapture upon
a crowd of lost souls in the fire. Over
the furnace was a sign bearing the
words, Delinquent subscribers y
Come said the angel, we must be
going now You go on, said the
editor, I'm not going. This is heaven
enough for me,

Sparrow Sets House Ablaze.

An English sparrow was the cause
of three houses catching fire at Law
renceburg, Ind, recently, and had it
not been for the prompt work of the
neighbors and friends all would have
been destroyed. The sparrow was
building a nest under the caves of the
home of Mrs Mary Weber, and It
picked up a long cotton string from a
pile of rubbish that had Just been
burned. With the burning string In
its beak, the sparrow flew to the roof
of Mrs Sophia Skaters house, then
to Otto McCright's house and then to
the roof of Emanuel Wuest's home,
where it dropped the burning string.
A fire started in the shingles of each
building. Each was extinguished by
neighbors before much damage was
done
