A Wedding in Paradise.
Under the above heading, the
Stillwater Advance makes the
following1 facetious report of a
wedding which occurred in the
vicinity of Paradise postoffice,
about ten miles east of Mulhall.
Late in the afternoon of Christ-
mas day at Paradise, Mr. Aaron
W. Cobler was united in marri-
age to Miss Sadie Hagan. After
the marriage ceremony had been
performed the couple drove to
the home of the bride's parents
in Paradise township for their
wedding supper, and late in the
evening went to the farm in
Cherokee township, southwest
quarter of 1(5, where the young
couple will make their home.
A dance,gotten up by the friends
of these young people, was in
progress when they arrived at
home, and were given a hearty
welcome home. The groom is
the oldest son of Chas. Cobler,
proprietor of the Globe hotel of
of this city. Someone remarked
prettily that the young couple
went to Paradise to get married
(good); were in Paradise when
they were married (better); and
let us hope they will continue in
Paradise during their married
life, and when the end shall
come, as it must to all, let their
abiding place be thereafter—in
Paradise.
They Thersh Cotton.
The farmers in the river bot-
toms near Ravanna have tried an
experiment this fall never before
tried on cotton, so far as known,
and have found it very profitable
and srtisfactory, says a report
from Jennings.
When the first freezing weath-
er came in November, the cotton
plants were simply loaded with
bolls. The stems of the bolls
were frozen and the bolls simply
drooped, and during the follow-
dry weather they have seemed
to partially dry up, and only a
few opened.
Some of the enterprising farm-
ers tried the bolls. They found
that the cotton in them seemed
to be good and determined to
try an expedient to get it out.
They picked the bolls that would
not open, ran them through a
threshing machine and then had
the cotton ginned. The product
they placed on the market and
realized from 7 to 8 cents per
pound for it, thus making their
cotton crop yield far more than
it would otherwise have done.
The Rev.lrl R. Hicks 1904 Almanac.
The Rev. Irl R. Hicks Alma-
nac for 1904 is now ready. It
will be mailed to any address for
30 cents. It is surprising how
such an elegant, costly book can
be sent prepaid so cheaply. No
family or person is prepared to
study the heavens, or the storms
and weather in 1904, without this
wonderful Hicks Almanac and
Prof. Hicks' splendid paper,
Word and Works. Both are sent
for only One Dollar A Year.
Word And Works is among the
best American Magazines. Like
the Hicks Almanac, it is too well
known to need further commend-
ation. Few men have labored
more faithfully for the public
good or found a warmer place in
the hearts of the people. Send
orders to Word And Works Pub-
lishing Co., 2201 Locust St.,
St. Louis, Mo.

earth." 25c, 50c and $1.00 bot-
