of sawsidge and throwd sawsidge
< spider at the COW which misd
he COW and hit Lem in the fase
who happend to step into the
kitchink door at that rninnit! Lem
was turrible surprised to git the
hot sawsidge and bilin greese right
betwixt his Ease & eyes and he let
out a awful whoop. He was also
surprised to see a COW in the kitch-
ink with his wife and when Missus
Brown explained that the COW had
walkd in of her own accord Lem
was SO mad with the impydents of
the COW and also 5ecuz the hot
greese was burning him so that he
lzickd her hard enuff to break her
ribs and she rund around the kitch-
ink trying to get out and knockd
Missus Brown down & even started
upstairs & upset the stove and like
to of set the house on fire before
she made her excape out of the
back kitchink door where she got
in.
1t was Gideon Hawkins old spotted
COW who he calls Fanny" who
done all this damage and Lem says
that hes agoin to have the law on
Gid for permitting his cow to walk
into other peepuls kitchinks in that
manner. AS for Gid he says he
can go ahead and sue for all of
him. Gid says its one thing to
bring suit against a man for dam
ages and another thing to colleckt
EN- being as you cant git blud outen
a turnip, nor money where there
aint none. There is a good cal of
truth in this.
Let this be a sollum warning to
folks not to leave their back kitch-
ink doors open even if the wether
is warm enuff to do so becuz you
cant tell what minnit some fool
COW will walk in and make herself
lust as mutch at home as if she was
in the kitchink.
The Board of Helth ort to look
after this matter or the Town
Selectmen or somebuddy else now

Don't Let a Cold
Get a Good Start

The way to check cold is to fight
it from the first. Even the worst
maladies often are easily conquered
if attacked early enough. Colds may
lead to asthma, bronchial troubles
and pulmonary affections. In the
treatment of these one of the first
needs is to build up body resistance.
Eckman's Alternative often has as
sisted in such upbuilding. AS treat
ment for the troubles named, it has
been used for more than twenty
years. And in many instances 1t has
effected lasting relief.
AS with any other medicine, 1t
should be regarded only as first aid
to right care and hygienic living
and a safe one. For it contains no
narcotics. opiates or habit-formlng
drugs of any sort.
