U. S. Brown had an encounter
with a vicious dog recently which
will be long remembered by
that gentleman. It seems that the
animal bad entered Mr. Brown's
ben house and was preparing to de
vour fowls galore. Being attracted
by the squawks of the hens, Mr.
Brown began an investigation. Up
on nearing the aforesaid fowl domi
cile he noticed the rear end of a
shepherd dog protruding therefrom.
I lysses thereupon unceremoniously
seized the dog’s hind legs and yank
ed it from the hen house. The ca
nine seemed to have become insult
ed at this seemingly un gen tie manly
act upon the part of the owner of
chicken*, for no sooner had it again
lighted on terra firma than it chal
lenged Mr. Brown for a battle. The
challeged was accepted and the bat
tle wai on in the twinkling of an
eye. * I he dog u«ed its needle-point
ed teeth while the man wielded a
four-pronged pitchfork. After a
little expert fencing Mr. Brown suc
ceeded iu downing the irritated
brute. He ran the prongs of his
weapon through the clog and pinion
ed it to the ground. Seizing an ax
he literally cut the worthless dog in
to shreds, thus putting out of
existence a dangerous, snarling
cur. However, Mr. Brown did not
escape injury; for after the dog had
snapped its last snap, he realized
that the canine had lacerated both
thumbs, the sharp teeth having pen
etrated the gloves which he wore
at the time. The wounds were cau
terized an<l Mr. Brown does not fear
any after effects as regards hydro
phobia, etc.
Oak farm.
One of the most enjoyable plays
given in Ceredo for a long time was
“Oak Farm,” a three act comedy,
by home talent, at Wright’* Opera
liou»e tail Friday evening. The
people were naturally expecting
something good or the building ;
would not have been crowded.
There was *carcely a vacant neat —
cither reserved neat* or the lower
priced ones—not occupied. And,
the large audience wan not disap
pointed in the entertainment, for
the play wa* interesting from start
to ending and no one went home (no
far an we have heard) regretting
that he wa* present. All the par- j
licipants* name* were given in these
columns last week and they are all
well known to many of our readers
and to most ol those who witnessed
the play. Each one performed bin
| or her part in such a way that im
provement would seem almost im
[possible. If any errors were made
by any one such were not noticeable
by the audience. Good music was
furnished by Messrs. L. E. Tillman.
I P. P. Chapman and Chan. Marcum.
The play was a decided success
in every way and all honor is due
to “Oak Farm Company ” We be- i
lieve the people of this community
would like for the comedy to be re
peated.
The gross receipt* of the play
ami program amounted to over one
hundred dollars, which will be ap
; plied toward purchasing a new or-[
gan fortheCong’l church.

That languid, lifeless fooling that
comes with spring and early summer,
can be quickly changed to a feeling of
buoyancy aud energy by the Judicious
use of Dr. Sheep's Restorative. The
Restorative is u genuine tonic to tired,

needed to satisfy the user, that Dr.
Shoop’s Restorative is actually reaching
that tired sj>ot. The indoor life of win
ter nearly always leadH to slugg'sh tow

The customary luck of exorcise and out
door air ties up the liver, stagnates the
kidneys, and oft-times weakens the
Heart’s action. Use Dr. Shoop’s Restor
ative a few weekH and all will be changed.
