WILLING TO ACCOMMODATE.

One day last week, while J. M. Oliver was out in his automobile, he discovered that he needed some lu- bricating oil for his engine. He drove up to a farmhouse where a small boy was playing. "Son," he called, run and ask your mother if she has any lubricating oil--or, castor oil will do, if she has that" Soon the boy re- turned and said, Ma ain't got no castor oil or nothin, but she said if you would wait a few minutes she would fix you up dose of salts. - Clay County Courier.
