It is not necessary to go to the
kitchen to pop corn with an elec-
trie popper now on the market. say-
Popular Mechanics Magazine, for it
is quickly connected to any convenin
lightning socket and may lie used iu
the living room or at the dining table.
The corn is held in a wire basket,
which fits upon a base surr undins
the heating element. To prevent ihe
kernels from burning. they are stir-
red by turning a crank similar to
that in a flour sifter Tin- pping
begins in less than three minutes
after the current has tken turned on.
If the corn is in gomi condition.
We are requested to call the at
teution of all who own dogs within
the corprate limits of the City of
Decatur, to the order passed by the
City Council last year, Hint all dog-

The sheriff's departinent has kind
ly consented to kill any dog found
running at large without a tag, aud
any perscn having a dog and wain
it killed please call the sheriff’ of
rice and they will respond promptly
The fact that there has been a
mad dog in our city last week and
has latten a numter of dogs, uh well
as at hast two persons, has created
quite an unrest among the citizens
and are demanding that this action
