Stove no Good

Hen. Weathersby, prop. of our gen.
eral store, built fire in his stove in
the store for the first time last Tues
day evg. You will remember it was
quite coolish that ev'g.
Well, the stove smoked 50 that 1t
drove everybody outen the store. Hen
then remembered that he hadn't took
the packer outen the chimney and so
he done so, but still the stove smoked.
There is big crack in the stove, and
Hen is of the opinion that this is what
causes the stove to smoke and is
afeard he will haft to get new stove.
This hatchery makes Hen feel bad who
has had this stove for the past IS yrs,
and is just beginning to get attached to
it. LATER-Hen says this old stove
will haft to last out this winter any
how, being as he can't afford to buy a
new stove.

Mel Sampson has a hen who has stole

Ed Simpson, who has been working

Mrs. Lige Green of this City took 8
doz. eggs and lbs of butter to the Co.
seat to market last wk, being as eggs
and butter is cts. more per doz. & ID.
there than at Hen Weathersby's store
here When Mrs. Lige got to the co.
seat she found all her eggs smashed,
but the butter was still intackt. Hen
Weathersby was a good cal tickled
when he heard about this, and calli-
lated Mrs. Green would of come out
better if she had patronized home
trade.
Jabez Crum, who lives five miles out of
Bingville, called at our office Thursday
last and TUX up two hours of our val
liable time in idle conversation We
wouldn't of lissened to Jabe except that
every minnit we was expeckting him to
pull out dollar or two and hand it
to us on his back subscripshion which
is nine years back But at the end of
the two hours Jabe departed without
giving US a red cent The next time
Jabe calls we won't be so blamed po
lite to him.
These is about all of the personal
brevvyties which we can think of at
the present writing Perhaps if we
would think harder we could think of
few more, but these is sufhshient for
the present ishue +.

ODE HAWKINS TOO
SHARP FOR HEN
There's Money in Eggs if You
Know How to Go About 1t

Hen Weathersby informs us that ODE
Hankins, who has always been regarded
as one of our most rcspeckted and hon
est citizens, has been playing him pur-
ty sharp tricks of late.
For the last couple of wks. Hen has
been selling eggs at 20 cts. per doz. IN
order to meet compensation at Hard
scrabble, where eggs is also being re-
tailed at 20 cts. per doz. Well, one day
last wk ODE he went into Hens. store
and bought doz. of eggs often Hen,
which was all he had, at 20 cts. per
doz and paid Hen cash fer same. This
was good cal of a surprise to Hen.
Hen wanted to know of ODE what in
thunderashion he was going to do
with so many eggs. ODE he jest LATED,
powerful big egg eaters. ODE told Hen
that he would take all the eggs he
could get at 20 cts. per doz.
So Hen he spread word amongst his
customers to bring in their eggs, and
in few days more ODE he got IL more
dozens from Hen paying him cash for
same This made Hen curious, SO he
begin to investigate, and to his conster-
nashion he found that ODE had been
buying eggs often him for 20 cts. per
doz. and selling them at the Co. seat
for 80 cts. per dozen. This made Hen
powerful mad, and next time he seen
ODE he told him hereafter he would
haft to pay 80 cts. per doz. for eggs,
but rs for his other customers they
would haft to pay only 20 cts. ODE
said alright and went away.
But Hen continued to find market
for his eggs. He noticed that there
was more of demand for eggs among
4 r. h,I Ena
but he didn't think nothing strange til
Lank Peterson come to Hen and in
formed him privately that ODE had been
employing Hens customers to buy eggs
often him at 20 cts. per doz., who then
turned them over to ODE at Il cts. per
doz., and that ODE had still been cart
ing Hens eggs to the Co. seat, where
he was still getting so cts. per doz. for
same and was getting rich at it.
Hen asked Lark how he knowed
about this, and Lank sait knowed.
because he had been en1n' by ODE
to buy eggs hisself, but 1use there
was 2 eggs in a doz. Ec bought from
Hen that wasn't good, ODE said he
would haft to deduct for them, and this
made Lark mad, so he went and told
Hen all about it.
When Hen found this out he was
Madden ever, and put up a notise in
his store reading as follers, mo Eggs
Wanted By Me"
But ODE wasn't discurridged. He is
now buying his eggs at Hardscrabble
where they are selling for 20 cts. per
doz and hauling them from there to
the Co. seat where he continues to get
80 cts per doz. ODE says it's farther
to take them from Hardscrabble than
it is from Bingvi1le, but in spite of that
he is making money in the egg business
hand over fist.
AS for Hen, he is considering the
advisability of getting out injunk
shion to restrain ODE from handling
eggs, but Anne Hillyer. our 1oryer & le-
gal light, also Seth Dewberry, our lion
hearted town constable, both says that
in their opinion ODE is acting within
his rights, and that Hen can't prevent
him from dealing in eggs if he so de-
sires.
ODE Hankins is cute one.

PIutarch's Leg Asleep

Last Friday ev'g, about 8 p. m, as
Hen Weathersby, prop. of our general
store, was closing the shutters of his
store preparatory to closing up for the
night, Plutarch Stone, who had been
setting acrost a nail keg without no top
in it for a couple of hours, got up to
go home, and fell end over end with his
face in the sawdust box.
Hez Watkins had noticed that Plu-
tarch had been eating crackers outen
the cracker bari, and thought he was
chockin, so Hez begin to pound P1u-
