I never can forget you, Dear Husband,

FARMERS IN NEW
FOOD SAVING PLAN

Marion farmers are about to
try a new food conservation plan
according to wags at Jasper, the
county seat. The price of coun-
try bacon has scared to 38c. and
it is in contemplation to use Jerk
backs" so as to conserve it.
This is especially the case in
families where a multitude of
children bless the home and
have to be fed. A Jerk back"
is rugged up and operated thus.
You take slice of 38c bacon or
a piece just about swallowing size
and suspend it by stout cord
from the ceiling or any convenient
location. Under it you place a
chair. At meal time the children
are summoned1n and No. l is re-
quested to mount the chair and
swallow the meat. The chair is
then knocked from under him and
the meat is naturally jerked back.
No. 2 is then summoned and the
operation pleasantly, or other
wise, repeated until the required
number of children are fed. The
same piece Of meat will still be
found to remain and the children
will all have had a chance. 1t is.
a rule of the game not to fasten
ones teeth in the meat, otherwise
some cuspids and bi-cuspids would
lose their location. Of course
where there are fifteen or twenty
children in a family the operation
has to be fastened and it would
bewell toriguptwo jerk backs. "
The enjoyment then, Of course, is
more intense, and greatly increas-
ed in hilarity. There is no pat
ent on the device and anyone
recognizing any good qualities in
it may use it if he wants to, but
as a conserver of high-priced ba-
con it is a bowling success, and
beats sausage FOR the howl.

SHOT BY SHERIFF
WHEN ATTEMPTING ESCAPE

Pikeville, Oct. 81. Glen Hile-
man, white, and Raymond Scott,
colored, both inmates of the state
reform school on the mountain in
Bledsoe county, were shot by
Frank M. knight, a deputy sher-
riff, guarding them last week,
while making a desperate at
tempt to get away from the re-
formatory. The two were in the
same cell and called to the deputy
for some water. He brought the
water but when he unlocked the
door to give it to them the negro
boy darted thru and seized his
arm. AS they scuffied to obtain
the mastery the white boy, Hile-
man, rushed to strike the deputy
with an oak stick which they had
torn from some furniture in the
cell. Knight by this time had
got out his pistol and fired at
Hileman as he rushed towards
him, striking him in the shoulder.
The negro was still endeavoring
to wrest the gun from the deputy
and he had him grasped around
the waist endeavoring to throw
him but the deputy managed to
put a shot into his shoulder. Both
boys we're badly wounded but will
recover. Deputy Knight is rs
years old, but very active or other
wise he would have been over
powered and the boys made their
escape.

of the life-and-death issue in the trial

The hat and the dress were worn,
the defense claims, by the wife of
the accused man, the wife swearing
that her husband was with her over a
mile away from the scene of the ex,

Mrs. Mooney declares the dress and
hat worn by her can be identified as
the same garments worn by the wom-
an shown in the photograph taken Of
the roof of building some distance
from the scene Of explosion. The
defense is trying to show that It would
have been impossible for Mooney and
his wife to have reached Steuart and

on the roof. In the photo street

declared that F. C. Oxman of Oregon
