Asks A Question
"Here’a something that al-
most parallels the old story about
tha crossroad storekeeper or
small town merchant of whom
we have heard about back in
Arkansas—the man who was
postmaster, editor, merehant,
justice of the peace, notary pub-
lic, stock buyer and undertaker.
Charles Latta is editor of the
May Bugle, postmaster, justice
of the peace, notary public, and
as a sideline conducts a restaur-
taurant to feed the hungry in
hia town. We wonder what he
does with the other half of his
time?”—Supply Republican.
We are glad to note that our
neighbor editor is interested in
our various occupations, and he
has listed them almost correctly,
the only errors being that we
are neither postmaster, justice
of the peace or notary public
Still he’s pretty close to the
the truth, for him, as we have
filled all of the positions he enu-
merates at various times and.
judging from public opinion, we
have never failed to give satis-
factory service.
As to what we do with the
other half of our time-say it
softly —we just hustle as beat
we can to make an honest living.
For, be it known that we have
never yet been guilty of publish-
ing a newspaper for the benefit
of a corrupt political machine,
while posing before our home
people as an honorable citizen.
Its an easier way to get the mon-
ey, to be sure, but its honesty is
somewhat questionable.

As publisher of The May Bugle the undersigned has quite a
bit of money outstanding in the form of subscriptions past

we get it by January 1st, will have to handle the printing

Are YOU going to do YOUR PART to help The Bugle help
the town? We are doing ours,
What will the answer be by January 1st?

DWARFS THE UNITED STATES
Stuptndous Size of Russia Is Such as
Literally to Stajoer the
Imagination.
Few people in England ever real-
ize the stupendous size of the Rus-
sian country, proudly styled by its
people “polovuia mir,” or “half the
world,” which is, of course, an ex-
aggeration, although Russian Asia
alone covers an area of nearly 6,-
000,000 square miles. George Ken-
nan, the American traveler, perhaps
afforded the most gra liic illustra-
tion of its enormous extent when he
wrote as follows:
“If it were possible to move en-
tire countries from one part of the
globe to another, you could take the
whole of the United States of Amer-
ica, from Maine to California, and
from Lake Superior to the Gulf of
Mexico, nnd set it down i.n the mid-
dle of Siocria will.u ;l touching any-
where the boundaries of the latter
territory. You could then take
Alaska ami all llu states of Europe
and fit them into the remaining
marginlike pieces of a dissected
map, and after having thus accom-
modated all of the United States,
including Alaska, and all of Europe
(except Russia), you would still
have more than 300,000 square miles
of Siberian territory to spare—in
other words, you would still, leave
unoccupied in Siberia an area half
as large again a. tho empire of Ger-
many !”
And all this is exclusive of Euro-
pean Russia, which has an addition-
al area of over 200,000 square miles!
—“Russia as I Know it,” by Harry
de Windt.
YOUR PLANTS.
To keep your plants from dying
while you are spending that two
weeks’ vacation away from home put
a good-sized pail of water on a level
with your plants. Get a very loose-
ly woven, absorbent rope or cord.
Put it in the water with the other
cud either hanging just above your
plant or resting on the earth at the
roots. This supplies enough mois-
ture to prevent drying up.

ANTIMONY HELPS LEPERS.
It. is reported bv n British inves-
tigator, Mr. F. 0. ■ uwston, who has
been studying leprosy at Durban,
that the adniinistr ition of colloidal
antimony appears to produce good
effects. According to the British
Medical Journal he found that
lepers in an advanced state of the
disease, with all of their fingers and
toes suppurating; were helped to
such an extent by this treatment
that the sup 'a ■ i entirely ceased.

LOOKING FOR VALUABLES.
“Drink was the cause of me down-

‘'Were you intoxicated when you
committed the robbery?”
“No. But I had hopes. I was
misled as to the contents of the
safe.”

“Don’t you admire a person who
can bt cheerfully indifferent when
things aren’t going exactly right?”
“No,” answered Miss Cayenne. - v - .
