ed. Captain George Aicher, represent

Cassidy, heading the Oldland team,
didn't get their forces lined up just
right, and the proposed supremacy
match didn t materialize. However
thirty or forty seekers of rabbit hunt

the Little Beaver region last SUNDAY

1t is said that a man who died IN
bad that the minister called to bury
him eouldn t think of single respect
able thing to say. The corpse was
neatly laid out and the minister sadly
considered his eulogy. The audience
fretted during the early part of the
service. wondering what the preacher
could possibly say that would not shock
them and still be something near the
truth concerning the deceased. Finally
the minister began: "My dear friends,

Should Be Tested
Above the White ranch on Salt creek
monty called sulphur springs by the old
timers. These waters are said to cor
tain wonderful curative powers, but
have never been tested as to their
chemical properties. Being that thev
are located in direct line with the Best
Chance, the claim which is producing
such wonderful carnotite specimens, it
might prove that these springs. besides
containing sulphur. also contain radio
activity. These waters should certain
ly be analyzed.-Eagle Enterprise.
The Endless Chain
Merchants who advertise only in out
of-town newspapers, or by circulars
that do not bear the imprint of the
home paper, are aiding very materially
in driving trade of all kinds away
from home, their own included. If
home merchants set the example of go
ing away from home to spend their
money, many other people will thereby
be encouraged to do the same. For
every Ftostburg dollar that is sent out
of town for printing, At least ten other
dollars are by that method Induced tn
be sent out of town for goods that
could be bought to Just As good advau-
tage at home.-The Frostburg (Md.)
