A. J. Marsh made a business
trip to Wiville and vicinity last
week.
Miss Mabel Armstrong who
visited in our neighborhood last
week returned to her home at
Searcy last Thursday.
Mrs. Rose McCauley and step
daughter Mary and little son
Wayne came over from Judsonia
last Saturday to pay a visit to the
home of Mrs. McCauley’s father
Esq. W. W. Best.
Mr. Nance of near Eight Mile,
Jackson county was in our midst
the latter part of last and the
first of this week visiting among
our fair sex. He is a gay young
widower and this is •all that
needs to be said of him. What
would widowers be doing but
prospecting with futures.
Norton Jones and the tele
phone man of Augusta finished
their line last Saturday. There
wi 11 not be any exchange office
in McCrory as first anticipated
due to the lack of support such,
an undertaking would command.
We now have a long distance
phone, the booth being located
in the Fakes Mercantile Compa
ny’s store, where you can talk to
all the leading long distance
points throughout the state.

man who does not advertise be
cause it costs money should
throw away his cigar when the
light goes out. The man who
does not advertise because he
don’t know how should stop eat
ing because he can’t cook. The'
man who does not advertise ■ be
cause some one said it doesn’t

E. T. Wherry was seen one
night last week going down the
street with “the best gun in the
country” as he called it. In
speaking of his achievements in
the shooting line Mr. Wherry in
formed his listeners that he went
out to the Sailor Harris place
once and shot a bird at a distance
of over two hundred yards. He
said this was no fish story but
one about birds. And if they
didn’t believe it he could prove
it. As is usually the case such
incidents being related brings
on more talk. Mayor Raney then
spit out one of his childhood
day s when he claims sorheone
shot a hog dead across the river,
a distance of three-quarters of a
mile. This was also believed by
all present. Mr. Wherry now
wants to sell his gun. We don’t
blame him.

Editor Balding, who was at
the helm of the Free Press re
cently, talcing charge when his
royal highness Brooks severed
his connection with the great re
ligious, took French leave and
maybe a “bottle of something
else” a couple of weeks since.
The Free Press is now a ship
without a master so to speak, and
if it don’t run aground in the tur
bulent waters of journalism in
the near future it will indeed
surprise some who are very ex
pectant. It seems that these
gentlemen don’t nelieve in the
future greatness o: our sister
town Augusta, “the hve sleepy
thing.” Whether Balding is now
making a, tour, laying around
some dram-shop or Ranching we
don’t know, but Arkansas’ jour

transacted is the election of a di-1

tend, be present. An interest

roads running into Little Rock
have been requested to give a
onefare rate for the roun<} ( trip
from all Arkansas stations.
DOCTORS AND EDITORS.
!
In copying the following arti
cle from an exchange, which j
seems to have it in for the modi-'
:-ai profession, we want it untor
stood that it does not include the
lectors of McCrory.
“A doctor we know, in a fit of j
nental imbecility notan abnor-j
mil condition with him said
hat newspapers are run for rev
alue only. What in thunder do
i doctors run for anyway? Do
they run for glory/ One good
healthy doctor's bill would run a
country newspaper office six
months.
“A country editor works half
a day for $3 with an investment
of $3,000; a doctor looks wise and
works ten minutes for $200, with
an investment of 3 cents for cat
nip and a pill box that cost $1.37.
“A doctor goes to college for
two or three years and gets a di
ploma and a string of big words
the devil himself can not pro
nounce, cultivates a look of grav
ity that he pawns off for wisdom
and seldom redeems, gets a box
of pills, a donkey to ride that he
may cultivate ‘company’ man
7iers, a meat saw; then he sticks
out a shingle, a full-fledgqd doc
tor. Ho will then doctor you un
til you die ac a stipulated price
per visit and puts them in as
thick as your pocketbook will
permit.
An editor never gets his edu
cation finished. He learns as
long as lie lives, and studies all
his life. He oats bran mash and
liver; he takes his pay in turnips
and hay and keeps the doctor in
town by refraining from printing
the truth about him. If the
editor makes a mistake he lias to
apologize for it. If the doctor
| makes a mistake he buries it.
If the editor makes one, there is
a lawsuit, tall swearing and the
; smell'of sulphur; but if the doc
tor makes one, there is a funeral,
cut flowers and the smell of var
nish. The doctor can use a word
a foot long, but if the editor uses
it he has to employ the install
ment plan of one syllable at a
time with a good long dash be
tween them.
“If the doctor goes to see
another man’s wife lie charges
the man for the visit. If the
editor calls upon another man’s
wife he gets a charge of buck
shot. Any medical college can
make a doctor. A medical col
lege can’t make an editor. tie
must be born.
“The editor works to keep
from starving, while the doctor
works to ward off the gout. Tim
editor helps men to live better
and the doctor assists them to
die easy.
“The doctor pulls a lick man’s
leg; the editor is glad if he col
lects his bills at all. Revenuh
only? We are living for fun and
to spite the doctors.”
