Bit of Humor: A guy is on the bank fishing, but he isn't having any luck; This fellow walks up and says, "What you need is a fishing mirror." The guy asks, "What is a fishing mirror?" The fellow says, "Oh, it's just a little mirror. I sell 'em. You hold it over the water and the fish look up and see other fish. Then they jump out of the water to get 'em. When they do, you just catch them and put them in a sack." The guy thought about for a second and said, "All right, I'll take it, but have you caught any with this thing?" The fellow says, "Well, counting you, four today." The Pause That Refreshes Did you know that Coca-Cola started out not as a soft drink, but a headache cure? In May of 1886, an Atlanta druggist and former Confederate officer named.

John. Pemberton, stirred -dark syrup. mixture in a 30 gallon brass kettle hung over a backyard fire. The mixture was the result several months of experimenting with various flavors and oils to come up with a flavorful, non-alcoholic tonic. He and his bookkeeper called the new brew "Coca-Cola" but wasn't the Real Thing as we know today.

Pemberton's new "intellectual and temperance drink" was a potent medicine that intended not to only bring headaches to a stop, but also cure a host of other ills. He sold it drugstores as a "brain and nerve tonic which could cure all nervous afflictions." This cure-for-what-ailsyou tonic didn't come ready drink, however. Coca-Cola came green pint-sized bottles of syrup with instructions to mix it with water. The still -secret formula that gave Coca-Cola curative kick included extracts of the African kola nut and cocoa leaves, both strong stimulants. In fact, as its name indicates, co*ke was one of the thousands of exotic patent medicines sold back in 1800s that actually contained a trace of cocaine.

Cocaine was legal back then and was considered a harmless substitute for alcohol. But the thing that made co*ke huge success and transformed it into one of America's favorite soft drinks began with an accidental discovery. One day shortly after the drink was introduced a customer walked into drug store complaining of a headache and requested a bottle of CocaCola syrup. To get instant relief, asked the soda fountain clerk to mix up a glass on the spot. Rather than walk to the other end of the counter in order to mix it tap water, clerk.

man -suggested using, soda the headache obliged and after drinking it remarked that really tasted great. The druggist kept offering the refreshing mix and word got around and soon Coca-Cola fizzy carbonated form was born. The rest, they say, is history. By 1903, though the use of cocaine became controversial and the CocaCola Company decided to use only "spent" cocoa leaves. It also stopped advertising co*ke as a cure for headaches and instead promoted it as "delicious beverage to be enjoyed." Today co*ke is sold in 160 countries around the world.

It went from "things go better with co*ke" to "the pause that refreshes" to "the real thing." Girl Drowns BEAVER, Pa.

He knew you had your share; He gently closed your weary eyes And took you in His care, Our hearts ache with sadness, Our secret tears still flow. What it meant to lose you, No one will ever know.

And when we're sad and lonely And everything goes wrong, We seem to hear God whisper, "Cheer up and carry on." Each time we see your picture You seem to smile and say, "Remember, God has promised, "We'll be together again someday." Lovingly remembered by: Your wife, children and grandkids.
