REx'S LOVE AFFAIR
Unusual Attachment Between a Collie
 Dok and g Jersey Gait.


 Dog and s Jersey Calt.
 Rex Judge Roraback's big collie. just cant seem, somehow, to keep out of the light of publicity. Undoubtedly that's because Rex is no common dog. Rex is of high birth and gentle breeding, and naturally does things differently and has aspirations and ideals unlike those of coarser breed. Just now-what do you think Rex is in love Yessir, in love and, you never would havo guessed it, but Rex is in love with calfl Think of it It's an awfully nice calf, though, and anybody could love it--a beautiful Jersey heifer calf that is being raised by Judge Rorabaok, and is at present kept at His Honor's capaoious Twin Lakes domain.
 Rex formed the acquaintance of the calf only 8 short time ago, but 1t was a case of love at first sight for both. Rex spends most of his time while at tho Lakes, incoming and spooning around the oalf's pen, casting sheep-dog's eyes at the pretty little bossy, which bossy duly reciprocates, and they invariably kiss each other goodbye by affection ately touching noses through the fence whenever Rex has to leave for the viii lage in Clint's automobile.
 It is & unique and interesting instance of mutual affection between an Has sorted pair. The calf is disoonsolAts and restless whenever Rex is absent. and Rex loses no time in hastening to Bossy as soon as he returns from an auto ride or a ramble with the Judge, when they indulge in unmistaksble manifes- tations of affection that betray all the symptoms of loves young dream.
 An amusing incident occurred a few days ago, when Rex was determined to give the calf an automobile ride. Clint had gotten aboard, with Chauffeur Geo. Bullock, and called for Rex to take his accustomed seat for the ride to town, but strangely enough, Rex was not in sight. The auto started on without him, but had gone only short distance when the occupants of the car were as- tonished to see Rex and the calf beside the road apparently waiting. Rex had in some manner entioed his bovine sweetheart out of her enclosure and brought her out to meet the auto. The machine was stopped, for Rex to mount. but the dog indulged in the most unac- countable behavior. He ran up to she auto, stopped, looked at the calf and parked sharply; then ran back to the calf, frisked about her for a moment and darted back to the car and this perform ance was repeated again and again. 1t was plainly an earnest and persistent effort to induce the calf to get aboard for joy ride, The calf seemed to un- derstand the invitation, but was too shy to accept. Finally Rex gave it up for a hopeless job and jumped aboard in a dis appointed manner. .
 The strange attachment is all the moro remarkable from the fact that although the love-lorn Bossy is of the "vealy" age of susceptibility, Rex would seem rather too old to be afflicted with the divine passion known as puppy love" which, by the way, is not confined ex- clusiyely to dogs. ...

Veteran, Aged sI, Cutting a Tooth


 Alonzo Sweet of Kensington, 81 years old, veteran of the Civil War and a member of the Berlin Veterans Associa- tion, is teething. Strange as it may seem the aged veteran is now cutting tooth on the right side of his upper jaw. MT. Sweet confidentially told a reporter of the Hartford Courant that he only had one tooth left when this new one began cutting it's way through. and all he could think of when it came, was, Welcome little stranger" His only complaint is that the new tooth and the old one which he has left will not meet. MT. Sweet is wondering whether he is going to start cutting full set of third teeth at this late day.

state. | was married in Hale
County, Texas, Feb. 26, 1912.
Made one crop on the plains
and decided to hunt a more sea-
sonable country. We loaded our
wagon and started for Hemp
hill county, Texas, Dec. 2, 1912,
and landed at Gageby Dec. 10.
| sure was glad that we had
come to our journeys end. We
have had several SHOWS ndsOme
lain this winter, and a good
season in the ground for spring
planting. Corn, Kaffir corn and
brOOmcOrn are the principal
crops here, with some cotton.
Corn made from 20 to 40 bush
els last year. Wheat and oats
are very scarce this year. The
farmers are most all behind
with their work. No one has
planted yet but will get busy.
| do not take your paper but
my dear mother takes it and l
often sit and listen to her read
ing the letters from her friends

her so much good to read them.

Meridian. MiSSiSSippi

, Dear Editor: | failed to get tht
Herald this morning. / learned
through another paper that &
} cyclone struck Cookeville anC
destroyed several buildings.
hope the Herald, including the
building, editor and working
force are all safe. / shall anx-
iously await the coming of my
paper as l have many kinspeo-
pie, friends and acquaintance
in and around Cookeville.
II NO.2 escaped when the south
side OF Terre Haute was blown
away please report through the
Herald. l see Lebanon, Tenn,
has recently been visited by a
flood. Two terrible wind storms
swept through Marshall coun-
ty, Tenn, one just west of my
wife's mother nd the other just
east of them. They both de-
stroyed many houses and barns,
killed many head of stock and
sons house was partially un-
rooted.
When men, women and child
rem are being rushed into eter-
nifty as they have recently in
the north and west it is the part
of wisdom, under a clear sky,
for each one to quit sin and ask
God for Christ's sake to forgive
his past sins, and walk ever
more in paths of righteousness.
1t is well enough to insure your
life andproperty in the interest
of those you may leave behind,
but vastly more important to
insure against the wrath of God
when you are brought to face
Him at the judgment bar.
Spring is here-the flowers
are beautiful, the lawns look
like beautiful green carpets and
the gardens look very promis-
ing. The sky is clear today.
Meridian has not been visited
by any calamity lately. She is
moving along nicely under the
commission form of govern
ment. The city voted $250,000
bonds for improvements. The
Meridian & Memphis railroad is
being built in a rush and busi-
n SIS of all kinds seems to have
a healthful and stedy growth.

We left CoOkeville Feb. 26 for
Oklahoma. Came by st. Louis,
and spent most of the day there
waiting for our train for Wood
ward, Okla. We reached For
gan March 1 at night. Sunday
morning we found man in the
town with a four-horse team
from Elmwood, near where we
were to land and he said he
would bring us out; so we all
mounted the wagon facing the
cold south wind and started on
on the journey of Is miles into
a community of strangers
where we were to make our
hOme-nOt person to meet
that we had ever seen before,
not even a house to move in to.
That looked hard for a man to
take his family in the winter to
such a place and it was. But
did l say strangers? Really we
have not seen a stranger since
we have been here. A more kind
and accommodating people l
never met. Mr.. and Mrs. M.
Turner prepared dinner and
waited for us until we arrived
about one o'clock and then took
care of us until we could fix the
house and arrange to move,
which was nearly two weeks.
When l got everything ready
the neighbors came and helped
me put the roof on my house.
After we moved, as our freight
had not come they loaned us
bed clothes, and one lady gave
my wife six hens and others
helped us out other wyas.
This is an open priarie cOun-
try and we have sand storms.
The principal crops you can
depend on here are maze, Kaf-
fir corn nd broomcoln The
wheat crop looks very sorry.

country all right, but can tell
more about how we like it after
