19 The Paris News since I started, ramblin' a Htlle over three j'ears ago. But the coming: week should be even greater due to the fact that only a few days remain in which the Paris News may be had one year by mail for S4.95. This offer positively closes midnight Jan. 1 and after that time the regular mail price of S6 per year will be charged. I urge everyone to bring: or send his subscription to The Paris News office at once as it is not possible for me to see ex'ery one in person.

II you want me to have credit for your subscription just fell die folks in the office to put a on the receipts. The time is not only short but the roads are muddv and this will cut down my travel somewhat. Pain Hits Knee While an his way out to his barn to milk his cows the other morning. J. H.

Shannon. old farmer of ti Sylvan community, was hit in the right knee with a sharp pain and fell to the He said he ivent one way and bucket the other way. After a short time the pain let up and he went ahead and milked his cow. but his leg has since been very sore and he has had to use a cane. Mr.

Shannon says his health is good considering his age. Building New Home R. B. Lewis ivho has been a mechanic for many years in New Boston, has quit this work and is building a new home on his 300-acre farm on Blossom Prairie, two miles north of Pattonville to which he will move as soon as it is completed. The home will be five rooms with bath, runnina electric lights, gas and all modern conveniences.

Mr. Lewi? is a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. B. P.

Lewis. His father was for many years a cotton buyer in Paris. Mrs. Lewis is a daughter erf the late Dr. and Mrs.

W. J. Fatten oi Blossom. Slowly improving Mrs. T.

J. Perkins of the Hoovertown community told me the other day when I rambled up to her place that she was slowly improving from an operation she underwent a few months ago. Her daughter, Mrs. Clarence Nobles of Deport, who is teaching in the school at Birdtown, was visitine her mother the day I was there. This past summer she and her mother took a vacation trip on which they traveled more than four thousand miles.

They showed me pictures of Yellowstone Park and many other interesting places they visited on the trip. Mrs. Perkins is enjoying the nice new home she built about a year ago. Eats Too Much The Home Demonstration Club vl Pleasant Hill gave a chicken supper at the school last Friday nisht and according to the report given to me by J. L.

Bryant of that community, the supper was well attended. He said there was chicken left and that he was among the men who could not sleep well that night from eating too much. Damaging Fire Some careless person caused considerable damage by throwing a lighted match into the pasture of Tom Seaton in the community one day last week. In addition to about 100 acres of good pasture that was destroyed the fire also burned Mr. Seaton's one sere berry patch.

The fire extended over to the R. L. Vaughan place and burned a big hole in his barn before it could be extinguished by neighbors and people passing by. ONE likes to lie awake; yet every night thousands toss and tumble, count sheep, worry and fret, because they can't get to sleep. Next day many feel dull, logy, headachey and irritable.

Has this ever happened to you? When it does, why don't you do as many other people do when Nerves threaten to spoil their rest, work, enjoyment, and good temper try Dr. Miles Effervescent Nervine Tablets Effervescent Nervine Tablets are a combination of mild sedatives proven useful for generations as an aid in quieting jumpy, over-strained nerves. Your dnigprt will bo to sell you Dr. Miles Effervescent Nervine Tibleis in convcrucnt small or economical large packages. Why not get a package and bo prepared when over-taxed r.crves threaten to interfere with your work or spoil your pleasure.

Large Package Small Package Doesn't Rob Bees Fate Bray of Reno tells me this is the first year he has failed to rob his fifty colonies of bees. Cotton was so sorry he did not move the colonies to the black land this year during cotton-blooming time. He thinks there is enough honey in the hives to take care of the bees this winter and so far he has not lost a hive. Resting Wei! Mrs. L.

Cutrell of the Georgia community, who has been seriously ill of pneumonia the past several days, was reported by her husband Saturday to be resting very well. A New One Here is a new one: Graydpn Cass at the Lpwman community, went out to his barn to feed the other morning arid found a white rat had taken UD with his white sow and her white pigs. I have heard of a lot of other mix-ups but this is the first rat I've heard of taking up with pigs and a sow. Kicked By Mule Dr. E.

C. Hindman of the Howland community was in Paris Saturday carrying an injured arm in a sling. While feeding his stock "cently one of his mules kicked him on the arm. Hunter Kills Cow While their land is in the same preserve Bruce and Escer Dodson lost a good cow the other day that was killed by some bird hunter. When the cow was skinned a large quantity of bird shot were found.

They say it looks like they will have to carefully enforce the posted rule on their land to protect their cattle.
