SAYS BLUE BAY MULE
 HAS POOR EYESIGh7
THEREFORE R. s. YOUNG WANT TO RESCIND TRADE WITH
 BUDDY BASS.

The blue bay mule which Buddy Bass last month traded to R. s. Young for perfectly good brown bay mule has turned out to be partially blind all the time and almost totally blind part of the time," and mot worth anything" At least this is what MT. Young charges in a complaint filed today in the Faulkner circuit court, in which MT. Bass is named as defend ant.
 The plaintiff alleges that the brown bay mule was five years old, weighed 950 pounds and was worth $50, but the blind blue bay mule which Buddy Bass swapped him isn't worth the feed he has been consuming since the trade was made and MT. Young wants pay for that, too. According to the complaint the defendant warranted the blue bay hybrid to be sound from head to foot and from nose to tail and at the time of the trade ''the said mules eyes looked to be good" As the blue bay wore no spectacles the impaired vision was not detected un- til after the trade was consummated, and now, in the presence of the court, plaintiff formally tenders the said blue bay mule to Buddy Bass and asks judgment against him for $50 the value of the brown bay mule, and the value of the feed given to the blue bay animal while in his posses sion.

Ornaments Necessary.

The small furnishings of a room are
the things that really furnish it. The
wall covering may be in the most ap-
proved of neutral tones, the floors
may be faultlessly finished, the rugs
may be exquisite and in impeccable
taste and the furniture may be the
careful choosing. Even the pictures
on the wall and the lights may be
faultless and yet the room in ques-
ton will lack certain air of COM
pleteness unless a few objects, vague
ly termed ornaments, be included
in it's furnishings.
