his head, done fool thing the other
day and suffered from the consequent
ces. When his mother wasn't watching

had pulled almost all the feathers outen
the hen.
Mrs. Hinci5ley returned to the wood
shed with Bud, and most everybody in
Bingville could tell what she was doing

EDDYTORIUL,

This month reminds us that it is
Febooary, & being reminded that il
is Febrooary also reminds us that
Febroorary amt got only % days
this year.
Now last year Febrooary had 20
days, which made last year leap
year.
If Our mennry serves us right we
dasht off a Eddytoriul early in the
yr. 1912 calling espechial attenshion
to the fackt that it was leap yr. and
advising the estimable young ladies'
of Bingville & vincinity to take adj
vantage of SIGH a golden oppor-
toonity to win a husband-we
warned EN- that a SIGH a boon
wouldn't come agin for 4 yrs, and
that being as some of EN- was past
the bloom of youth, as we might
say, it would be takin a awful
chants to put off this vital quest
chion of nlatrimony for another 4
yrs, being as at the end of that
time they would be more past the
bloom of youth than ever, and like
as not would live and die old maids.
But what good did our advice
doa Answer-NO GOOD! Why
there wassent more than only a few
marriages TUX place in Bingville
during 1912! Rev. Saml Moore.
our beloved pastor, says he can't
recall VI. sinst he has been pastor
of the Bingville church, when mar
riages was so skeerce as they was
during the past year, and further
states that most of the cupp1es who
did git married beat him down on
his reglar price of So to in some
cases as cheap as 70 cts. which
price is absurd and ridiklus in the
extreme.
Thank goodness it amt our fault
that Bingville girls didn't purpose
when they had the chants during
leap yr., because we warned en- in
advance, and now if they become
old maids as a result of not taking
our advice al we can say to EN- IS
I'VE told you So"

Mrs. LATE Packard is spending a few
days with her father, who lives 10 miles
west of Bingville. Mrs. Packard's moth
er is sickly, so Mrs. Packard went over
to help out. LATE is patching It dur
ing her absence, and says he is mighty
sick of cooking his own meals.
Mrs. Israel Goodwin gave a Sing
at her home on Main st. Thursday ev'g.
She had several of Bingville's most
talented vocalists present, including
Miss Amelia Tucker and Miss Milly
Underwood, both of whom belong to
the church choir, and haven't spoke to
each other since they spoke last Christ
mas about who was to sing the solo in
the Christmas anthem. Those invited
sang several hymns and had general
good time.
Miss Abigail Gookins, who Is a MEM
Der of the Bingville smart set, has been
throwing out hints lately that she will
give ball before the close of the sea-
son which will ecklipse the most bril-
liant funckshion ever give in Bingville.
It is even rumored that Miss Abigail
will have a fiddler from the Co. seat
to furnish the music, and that she will
serve ice cream. Abigail never does
things by halves.
Mrs. Eph. Higgins, wife of our P. NJ,
had few friends in to tea last Monday
afternoon from to 4. Mrs. Higgins
served apples and doughnuts with the
tea. After the guests had departed
they talked scandalious about the affair,
being as they expected big feed. Mrs.
Higgins is not woman who when she
gives social funckshion cooks up a
big meal and sweats herself all up in
the kitchen for them she entertains, and
we don't blame her. Fools make feasts
and wise women eat them.

Births

We take pride in announcing that on
last Thursday night there was born to
Mr.. and Mrs Harve Hines, the latter
the wife of our well-known tonsorial
barber and hair cutter, a lob. baby
boy under the direckshion of Doc. Liv-
ermore, our hrman specialist & vet
Urinary surgeon. This makes two for
Harve-a boy and q girl-which Harve
says is sufficient for him to support, be-
ing as most of the men folks of Bing-
vile shaves themselves.
Bige Barker asked Harve IL he was
going to make barber outen his boy.
Harve told Bige it wouldn't be neces-
sary, being as the kid was a little shaver
anyhow. Bige laughed fit to bust. That
was blamed good joke, Harve.

The couple returned to the city and
and one month later Crawford died,
He was 75 years old at the time,
more than rs years older than his
wife.
DR.. j. w. Hart of this city, who
attended Crawford during his last
illness, today issued a statement in
which he said that he had given
Crawford medicine containing NOR
phine and meuconic acid.

alleviate his suffering" said DR.. Hurt
Il also gave him a cough mixture
that will well account for the pres
ence of meuconic acid. l have never
testified anything else.
II am not surprised to hear that
DR.. Harris reported finding traces of
these drugs in the stomach, but I am
surprised to hear that he says the
man did not die of pneumonia. I
treated him and signed the death cer-
tificate.

'Of course I deny the whole story" )"
said Mrs. Crawford tonight. "It is
just one thing piled on another to
make me spend my money in law

me because heirs-at-law Of my hus-
band want more than their share of
the estate and hate me-"
The estate of the dead man is val
ued at $260,000. Much of it is real
estate in this city. His widow, un-
der the terms of his will, is the chief
beneficiary of the property. The es-
tate has been in dispute since shortly
after Crawford's death in March, 'O9.
Mrs. Crawford was married to the
dead capitalist in February, 1909, at
Jacksonville, Fla, where he had gone
on account of i'll health. The mar
riage followed courtship of less
than month. Crawford roomed and
took his meals at the home of the de-
fendant The acquaintanceship thus
begun eliminated in the marriage.
