Th fun of it is that th "pesky critters" have at tacked the very territory in which our richest and most high-toned citizens dwell and have spread themselves with all mag nificence. Along th Riverside Drive stretches a long line ofjsplendid residences, in which costly and fine raiments are the rule and sumptuous dinners a common occuranc. while the bed's are of down, and soft and tender to the bodies of th slumberers. But these beds are full of float, urn fiu is ubquiious, tutu can bile as well on down as on sackcloth.. Th people on the East side may be scratch ing for a living, but the people of the Riversids Drive are scratching for a moments relief. It is some comfort that our rich people are making a study of .th habits and character of Ihe nimbi little creatures, and by winter will be full of knowledge besides many reminiscences of BIER COUNTY PREACHERS fl TO MAKE If five particular marriages occurred in th past year, then there is owing to th county of Baker, between $2500 and 1 3.000 in fines, unassessed and unpaid, but assessable and collectable.

SURE CURE fOR SNAKE BITES Here is a "sure cure" for snake bit, that is said to be far ahead of the old time remedy, that used to b so popular. "Take about seven drops of th tincture of iodine, scarify and bath th wound also with iodine. This remedy was first used by a medical officer in British ser vice in India. It has cured both man and beast; it never fails. It is really wonder ful in Its affects.

People are reading up on Egypt, and trying to get som lines upon the way th people of that country endured th insect. Others are complaining to their landlords, but they have fleas of their own, and all the bother they want on their own premises and persons. The color of th parasite is a reddish brown. They do not seem to trouble themselves about the discom forts of th subway, but simply cling to th human friends they have found and become quit attached. There is never a friend so true as a flea. He never de- Mutswis, uuirUiK away iui kuiuu uiu, of flesh, and tenderer places to bite. One man comes forward with a com mon remedy simply sprinkle common table salt around th habitat of th flea and he will flee away. The trouble is urn. must people mime in salt man is making fun of them and don't try it, but it It said that some have tried it and find it efficacious. knowledge and wanted' record kept of those things. Hence they hedged in the officiating minister oi judge with a serious penalty for failure to record a ceremony performed by him. Th stata provides that any one who willfully refuses or neglects to make the return specified, shall forfe t for such refusal or neglect a penalty of not less than $10 nor more than $50 to be recov rd by action for each five days of such refusal or neglect. If Baker ministers perorfmed the cere monies in question, and areas poor as the traditional ministers, they may nd even the little saving wiped out by a strictly technical interpretation of the law. In its mildest sense the court before whom such actions were brought, if they were brought would have to fins various ministers or magistrates a sum of notless than $2610 while if the law was enforced with rigor the penalties at $10 for each five days would amount to $13,040.00 MORE DAIRY COWS J.
