Maj. Wm. B. Reynolds, U. S. Army Recruiting Officer, visited the Recruiting Station at this 1 place a few days ago for the pur pose of making enlistments for U. S. Army.

It has always been a mystery to us that a young lady should make some poor fellow believe that she is interested in his weK fare when as a matter of fact she is interested only in his farewell. Mc Caw- Anderson . At ten o'clock Monday morn ing the marriage of Miss Jene vieve Anderson, of Rock Hill, S. C., took place in the parlors of the Methodist Manse, Rev. \ Bagby officiating. Miss Ander-' son had been spending some 1 time visiting with her aunt, Mrs. , Geo. Killian. Mr. McCaw came up on a visit and they decided to get married before returning home. There is a little bit of romance attached to this marriage, that might be mentioned: Mr. MoCaw was a guest at the Inn when he was aroused by an alarm of fire. He ran down the stairway al most suffocated with fire and smoke. When he had reached safety, he thought of his marri age license that were under his pillow so turned and said; "I must have my license or die." After rushing back and getting them he was compelled to jump from the second story to the ground to save his life. Falling Creek Mill News. At this opportunity I will write a few lines from this section for the good old Democrat papa. Everything is moving and very lively in our community. T. P. Clonninger had his sale and a largt number of peoqle attended it. The sale moved on very nice ly. Most all of his farming ma chinery and tools went very cheap, but wheat, corn and roughness brought a fair price. Last Thursday a good many of our neighbors and friends were in to see the new roller mill in operation. They all spoke in praise of it. Last Thursday was~St. Valen tine's Day, as a great many of people know. The wintry month is cheered by the glow of sweet human affection and earnest good-will. It is one of the most beautiful necessities of our na ture to nave something good to pour out the wealth of the spirit ual nature upon, and so we are glad to notice and celebrate this day. Everything is renewed in the wonderous love and beauty ( of nature; for God's life is in the j center of all creation."" Lette* Frcrfih Rusticus. Rustictfs thought wltile he was confined lfi ills rocm with a slight attack of fhfeumatism would write a i&OH article for the col umns of I*he Democrat. There is nothing new in this neck of the world just now. From the many land sales, it appears that prosperity is reign ing at its highest figures. Land has gone to an extreme price. Monev seems to be very scarce in the country. It is not in the hands of the common class of farmers, it is held by a few wealthy farmers. Just to show to what extreme price land has gone to, Dock Wilburn sold a 35 acre lot that cost him about $3 per acre and he sold it for S3O per acre to N, A. Leatherman. John A. Sharpe sold a small tract" that was sold obout a year ago for S3OO, sharpe realized S6OO for it. Then Morris sharpe bought the D. A, Whisnant farm of about 80 acres pine land, paid SI4OO. Robert Weaver bought the Robert Abernethy farm pay ing $2300 for about 80 acres of ' pine with scarcely any on i it. Miss Anna FMnger sold her 68 aofes of river land to W, M, * Hicks for SIOOO. Then h?re comes Monroe Groves that caps the stack; 35 acres of hilly land and no timber on it for S7OO, Junius Cobb sold ten to N. A. Leatherman for $250, The reason tfcat land has gone up so high is on account of the saw mill men. They are grabbing at every foot of land for the tim ber. . If the devouring of the timber will go, on at this rate the future generation will not have any— Arthur Bridges and Miss Dora Lore were married a few days ago, Dr. Clapp officiating, D. S. Jarrett and Laura Smith also followed suit. Then on the rear came James Whitener with Miss Pitts, daughter of Monroe Pitts, J. F. Yoder, Esq., did the work. There are several more in soak. It is commonly reported that a widower of three score and six and a widow of three scores and two will soon join hands- Go it foks while you are young. A Mrs. Berry, a sister to Charles Hubbard near Wesley's Chapel was on a visit to her brother. They had not seen eaoft other for twenty years. * The farmers have done a great deal of plowing this year. They are hauling their sweet potatoes to Charlotte for market. Miss Lilla and Vonney Yoder have gone with Uncle Lurwick Yoder to Weaversville, Buncombe coun ty. We think that the old ground hog lias made another mistake. We think that the legislature ought to pass a law to repeal the ground hog business. Rusticus. y Every grocery store should carry Argo Red Salmon.
