I hope you nada plenty of good dry wood It was more than we had. It may sleet and the wind blow, but our school continues large. I believe lue peopie that have been practicing to marry have all got married at last. If ever I get that far on. I think that 1 would want it real from the be ginning. IL' I were you and you wer,e me,TJffld were to ask a girl to be your better-halt*, and she were to say to you that "You scare rae !" what would you do! Pa says for me to be quiet, that it is "Leap Year," and that she will be apt to want me to scare her again, but I tell you that il there are any more scaring go ing on it will be her, for I be lieve that it is unlawful to scare women. ! q< hoi 0 1 !':" oin far.mbi - ii. t)iis;couiitv Will r.nt go wih o\ h '.t/otton this year, Cor wher? a rr- as many children ns there 4?i^iarJbon> wc need lois of hr,:, and hotninj ,. and. if yuu dun t believe we hu e it, come up this summer when the days get long and hot to see pa. 1 know that he would be glad to entertain you for awhile, then, I believe ?ron will say "yam, that am old lam."

Moore still has some of that guano t hat he guarantees "no grow, no pay " So, boys, if you want to make big crops on a little place, come up and get some "of the red stuff that makes the cotton grow. A SCHOOL BOY. February 2, 1004. Miracles and Appetite. The minister ol' a kirk in a rather remote country parish in Scotland with his ruling elder went a long journey for the "catechising" of an old parish ioner. The walk was long and arduous, and when they arrived at their destination their appe tites, to say t he least, were some yyhat "keen/'and they did jus tice to .the nteal Vilich the Old parishioner offered 111 em. "Now Janet," said the. mi/lister, when he and his oom pa tulon had for awhile finished eating, "we will begin the serious business. Do you remember the text for last Sunday?" "Ay, I mind it well," replied .Janet; "it was about (he miracle ol' the loaves and the fi hes." "And have you ponder ed the subject during tin? week Janet?" continued Mle minister, "Deed have 1, sir," said the woman; and I'm thinkin' the not) thal if you and the elder had been lhere I hey wadna' have taken up sae many basket fills-"-V.

The colton is not all picked yet, but the stalk cutlers aro mouing wheie it has beeu pieked. It looks ae if the sower will almost overtake the reapers in getting in the new cotton crop. I saw that done for the first time j the past year in the hustling town ol Clio. Ono man was cutting oats with a mower, (the oats we e blown down) au other was layiag ofl lands and sow ing pons; and just beyond them then was another man running a reapoi and binder. This was on the lot now owued by Mr. H. J. Bennett, and Mr. A J Huestess was present at the lime. The peon lo of our section have changed places considerably. Man) have moved away and others have moved ir, ami taken their places, nm! all appear to be suited. Labor h soarcM :ir.i! ii rd to get for wages they all want farms. There are some who do not know what they are going to do yet, but I guess these will be come plantera later on. I see signs of a uew saw mill going into operation nearby soon, which will give lumber to some who dislike tn haul it so fur. Well, Mr. Editor, Ido not know what to write about further. The boys it appears, have all about decided not to marry soon. I bear nothing to make me think I wi'I get to eat tur key-only an occasional rumor from Wesley, and I have nnt banked on ih-t too much, for I look for the squire to move hid business t> a railroad town aud that town will be D-, and in that case, if he should marry ,of course he would huard the train and take a tour, and would have no "infair, and I would be left. Jany 28, 1904. A Hermit. FAITHFUL TO DEATH Tho Pioneer Pres3, Minnesota, prints the following iucidenfc which occurred at Great Falls, Montana, last spring. Tno victima of thc recent bliz zard that swept over the northern portion of that state, killing thou sands of lambs and a number of cattle, are now being found with the passing of the snow. In near ly every case the victims were sheep herders who were caught in the storm aud frozen to death be fore they could reach shelter. Al most without exception these sheep herders are men without counectious of any kind. One ot the most pathetic cases that bas como to light is that of William rMuraber, an aged man, whee sole friend, so far as known, waa a handsome shepherd dog which he had raised from a puppy. This dog could do almost everything except talk. When Shep, as he wn : called dragged himself m to th:' lit.:,; she op town or Shelby, with two of his legs frozen, the ate of^Plmnber was know ii. 1' v,t>: useless to proseen to n search ii him without the aid ol' thc dog, and as the animal was, ap parently, too disabled" to make another move, it was proposed to wait several days before searching for the body ot the missing man. Shep, in spite of his condition, was ready to lead tho party, how ever, and ulthough the progress was slow and painful over the snow-covered hills and vales, the faithful dog led the party to the body of his master. Crouching beside the lrozen corpse the dog worn almost to a shadow by the hardships he had undergone, ut tered a long, penetrating wail, and then licking the cold face of his muster, expired. Plumber and the dog were buried in the same grave. Don't You Love Flowers'/ It so, and you want some pretty pots of all sizes in which to place them, call at the Hardware store and you can be suited.
