DAY Al'TKIl DAY, iu iu every way, I'm getting worse and
worse; I have the fever known as hay, and I'll be busted
when I pay tho doctor and the nurse. I hear my dippy ueighbors
claim their ailments have expired; tho blind, the bald, the sore,
tho lame, arc working this "get better" game until they mako
me tired. I shudder when with baleful grins they seek my cot
toge door, ami tell of ailments which were twins, of chilblains in
their feet and shins which bother them no' more. "We've con
quered all our aches anil ills," I hear these guys repeat; "we've
thrown away the druggists' pills, we pay no more physicians'
bills, and life is full and sweet. We merely chant our rigmarole
ten thousand times a day; then sickness wilts and hunts its hole
and pence pervades the tortured soul, and pain is shooed awny.
You have hay fever and the flu, you havo the blamedest time;
why don't you join our merry crew and chant, a million times or
two, the Frenchman's healing rhyme?" Hut I'll endure my punk
disease, us I have long endured; if I took up that healing wheeze,
I might become a bore like" these who tell how they've been

Benj. Whetstone, one of our well to

a farm on Antelope creek, was a busi
ness co,Ucr lust Thursday and so was
Roy Conley of Bute Fulls who owns
tho aid Hawk sawmill, and I asked if
he was cutting much lumber now and
ile said no, that he was feeding his
cattle, that he had plenty of liny and
that he was just poking it into them
and they looked fine.
Sam H, Harnish who has the con
tract to take the high school children
to Med ford and back, was on the sick
list last week so had his son Robert
drive in his place, but is now back on
his old job again.
Carlylo Natwick of Mcdford, was
here for dinner Saturday and reports
mat he Is building a houso on tho
tract of land that fell to his wife in
the division of what is known as the
Nichols farm, some six miles north of
hero on Rogue river. After it was di
vidod between his wife nee Ruth Nich
ols, and her brother Thomas F. Nich
ols, they mutually agreed on the
division, had a surveyor run out the
lines, without the aid of a lawyer, und
everything was settled as it should
havo, 'been between a brother und sis
ter. L. G. Palmer ot Butte Fulls was out
Saturday and reported the deatli of
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Spencer's infant son
tiged 13 months, who died Friday.
Last Friday, Feb. 10th, being the
49th birthday ot our' popular roail
supervisor, just about the time when
ho was about to retire, having taken
off his shoes nnd everything ns quiet
as a dentil chamber, all at once he and
his wife wore startled by one ot those
unearthly yells" that few could give
except Gus Nichols, broke the stillness
ot the hour, when in rushed about -0
ot his noighbors to join with him and
his fumily in celebrating his birthday.
So after the excitement was over they
nil settled down to spending the even
ing in visiting and socinl games until
bedtimo whon lunch was served and
the visitors retired wishing William
many happy returns of Feb. 16th.-
Wm. Butler, one of our well to do
farmers and Mr. Van Allen who is
living with Mr. Butler, wero in town
on business with our postmaster and
manager ot our tclophono business,

Saturday nftcrnoon just ns I was

ist for Hubbard Bros., Medford, drove
up on u business errand, and when
through drove off nnd I started right
off for the postoffice again and my

i Mr. Howlott was a minister he thus
, called on the phone. Ho then wanted
to know if I, could marry a couple
about elghtw'elock that evening- being
told that I could, not giving any names
ho again called up and -wanted to
know If I could go out In the country
about half a mile. Again I answered
in tho affirmative, us he proposed to
come after me and bring me home so
that being settled I again started for
the postoffice and got thirty rods on
my way when who should drive up
and stop, and f supposing that he hud
forgotten something I inquired the
cause of his returning. He said that'
he had come after me and I looked at
him inquiringly and asked it he was
the man who wanted to be married
and he said he was, and wanted mc
to get right in the car, but I protested
that I wanted to change my clothes,
Finally I thought of my fountain pen
and said I would have to get that to
fill out the certificate so we started
back to the house and I changed my
j clothes and got ready and we started,
and after we started I asked the name
of tho lady he was going to marry and
he said the name was Mrs. Hannaford,
and after we had rode a mile or two
I remarked that his half mile was
rather long then asked where the lady
lived and he said on his place a part
of the Everett Daliack place (it was
four miles but he wus too excited to
thiuk). Well, we went on through the
sticky mud and finally came to a pluce
1 near (the foot ot a hill where the
ground seemed to bo softer and soon
wo stuck fast. Ho tried to back up
but tile more lie tried the deeper wo
went -into tllo sticky, so Mr. Pierce
took the load off and tried again but
every move made It nioro difficult to
get out, so he finally nsked if I had
on rubbers. I told him I had. Well,
said he, I guess we will hove to walk
nnd i nsked how fnr If Was over to the
house nnd he replied: O, two or three
hundred yards. I still had in mind
the length of his "half mile" nnd fig
ured accordingly, and so we started.
Of course I could not walk very fast,
especially through sticky, nnd after
we hud walked about three-quar.e s
of a mile and by this time it beg.u to
get quite dark for a man past ninety
nnd almost blind. We finally reached
the house and on entering met Mrs.
hdizubeth Hannaford, her siBter-in-law
MI-s. Hannaford, Mr. and Mrs. O. E.
Stille, and ten children, Mrs. E.
llunnaford's five, ono of the other
hannaford family, and four little
Htillo's, und in tho courso of a short
timo Mr. Plerco was ready and
brought in tho prospective bride and
in less time than it takes me to write
it the happy couple wero joined in
wedlock. And then he and Mr. Stille
started to extricate tho car from the
mudholo.
Hut then I camo up againBt another
difficulty. I had been used to electric
lights, but we wore off the line and
consequently had to depend on a coal
oil lamp for light, nnd I was unable to
sco to write or read, but 1 secured the
'"

assistance of one of the ladles and
dictated to her and finally managed to
make them out. Then simper wa
called and after partaking of a hearty
meal Mr. Pierce unnounced that tho
car was at the door ready to take me
home. So we, that is Mr. Win. O.
Pierce, his bride and mysoir started
and in a short time I was landed ut
the Sunnyside safe and sound. So
bidding the happy couple good-night
they went on their way rejoicing.
Among tho Sunday visitors wore Dr.
M. C. Burker and wife, Mr. and Mrs.
Lynn W. Smith, all of Medfoid.
