A BKj NOSE
What is it for? Why, you dunce,
to breathe through, and to adorn
the face. Yep, see; but what else?
Why, you dunce, to pull at and
pick in church and select company.
Yep, see; but what else? Why, xml
dunce to blow and sneeze throufW
on a cold, frosty morning, on the
south side of the barn. Yep, see; j
and what else? Why you dunce, to
snore with when asleep and to
smell with when awake. Yep, see;
but what else? Why, its a ventila
tor, and keeps the brain cool. Big
nosed men seldom do anything
rash—their big snoot makes them
cool brained. Yep, but what else?
Why to nose into other peoples’
business. And this reminds me of
the two men who had a fight, and
one cut the other’s nose off, and it
scared them so it broke up the
fight and in the excitement the
man who did the cutting grabbed
up the nose stuck it on and hur
riedly bound it up, telling the in
jured man not to touch it until it
got well. He did so, but lo and be
hold it was on wrong end up’ards;
and when it rained he strangled,
and when he sneezed it blew his
hat off. If anybody doubts this let
him ask Jim Ketchem or Bill Du
vall.
All things are lovely here, but
the mud. It is the stickiest mud in
the world and packs on one’s shoe
heels as hard as leather. But my
what fine land! Com and cotton
grows here to perfection, and the
day is not far distant when all this
fertile country will be in a high
state of cultivation.
Young man stick to the soil. It
is the best bank on earth; it never
breaks, nor burns, and if ever rob
bed you do it. Jas. F. Jernigam.
Marked Tree, Arkansas.

WHEN HODGES WAS WISE
The Salem Banner contains an
interesting write up of Earl VV.
Hodges, Secretary of State. One
paragraph says that “Newark is
proud of being the birthplace of
this most extradorinary young man
but not more so than Salem is of
the fact that it was here he con
tracted a liking for printers ink.”
Neither Newark or Salem can be
more proud of Ear! than Imboden
for it was here that he married
Miss Nell Gamel, the smartest
thing he ever did in his life.—Im
boden Gazette.

NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS
Notice is hereby given that I will at
tend in person or by deputy in the dif
ferent townships throughout the county
for the purpose of collecting the State.
County and Special Taxes for t)ie year
1910, on the days and dates specified |
below. EACH TAXPAYER IS RE
QUESTED TO BRING HIS LAST
YEAR'S TAX RECEIPT. I would
suggest that as many as can make it |
convenient to do so, meet me on
the day I am in their township and
settle their taxes, and thereby avoid |
the rush which always comes later.
After February 16, in my office in
the court house at Batesville, until
the 10th day of April, 1911, taxes can
be paid without the penalty, and after
the said 10th day of April, 1911, the
law requires a ]>enalty of 25 per cent
to be imposed for non-payment.
W. R. SHEEPMAN,
Collector of Taxes for IndependenceCo.
NOTICE

dependence County, at its October 1910
session, adopted a resolution looking

for the care of the poor and indigent
and those who by reason of disease
are unable to maintain and support
themselves, at or near one of incor
ated towns or cities of the county, pre
ferring the said town or city that
would offer the best inducement, such
as a site or money.
Therefore any of the said towns or
cities of said county are hereby given
notice of the action of said court, to
the end that they may take such action
as they see proper tn the premises.
This matter will be closed and prop
ositions accepted on the first Monday

submitted by that time, in writing, and

Do This Better Abroad.
"When all Is said and done,” began
the Englishman, "your T'ncle Sam
might improve on the way he manages
his postal service, you know. You see
what 1 mean? For instance, this way
he has of returning letters to you
that you have forgotten to put stamps
on. Eh? Frankly, that is the w'orst
thing he does. Yesterday I lost a deal
by the return of a letter that should
have gotten to the man on time. Back
It came, the stamp rubbed off. Either
1 forgot it, or It rubbed off somehow.
Eh? Upon my word, a thing like that
couldn't have happened hi England.
The man who gets the letter pays the
extra postage, or the whole of it, if
you have forgotten your stamp. And
he does it very gladly, too, if it’s an
important letter such as this one I
sent yesterday. You see what I mean?
Eh?”
Steals 6,000-Pound Girder.
Alton, 111.—The Alton police are
looking for the strongest thief in Illi
nois. When they find him they expect
to obtain an explanation of how' he got
away with an iron girder .15 feet long
and weighing 6,000 founds, the prop
erty of the city. Recently the city be
gan the construction of a bridge on
the Vandalia road, expecting to use
the girder on the structure. When
they were ready to move the girder
they could not find it.
Ohio Bovine Eats Paint and Dies.
Bucyrus, O.—William Kranich, a
painter, is being sued for the interior
decoration of a family cow\ Kranich
had the contract to paint the farm
buildings of William Klein. The work
wras completed and was evidently ad
mired by the cow, as she sought the
place where the paint was stored and
proceeded to apply what was left In
ternally. She died and Klein ia
suing Kranich for S60.
