The obviously “antique” bottle is 5 ½” tall not counting the nipple, and the Red Riding Hood bottle is an inch taller. Both are in excellent coundition.
Dayton, Ohio is where the Riding Hood bottle is from: Moler’s Belmont Dairy. It says right there on the bottle: THE DAIRY WITH COWS.

The fine old Faultless nipple has stiffened up so I’m afraid to monkey around with it. I’m assuming the bottle rim is also fine. It should be. Everything else in this estate was well taken care of.
See the bubbles?! I LOVE BUBBLES! You can also see, I hope, the embossed name “Hygeia” in the bottom. It’s on the side too.
I wish I hadn’t mentioned Bubbles. She got too old to dance on the table. “Wonder what ever happened to her . . . . . ,” he mused.
The young man had just gotten out of college with a degree in Pasture-Based Dairy and Livestock Farming,” so he went back to Dayton, Ohio to work at the family dairy business.
The second day on the job, during the morning meeting out back on the loading dock, he told his father he was redesigning the bottle. He also said, “We need a slogan.”
“What kind of slogan?” his dad asked.
“Well,” said the kid. “What are we most proud of?”
The old man rubbed his chin and looked out toward the south pasture; “Our cows,” was all he said.
“You are a genius!” yelled the kid as he ran back toward his brand new office at the front of the main barn.
The old man knew he’d lied to the kid about what he was most proud of.

Antique JV SLOAN Print LITTLE GIRL w CAT & PUPPIES 1907
sold $126. i think it's a boy. a girl would have long curls
I very seldom remember my dreams. How about you?
Well . . . last night I HAD A DREAM, and it was unforgettable. I know they say dreams only last a matter of seconds, but I’m convinced this one lasted most of the night. It was like an epic drama that played out over an entire generation of beautiful, lucky people with good teeth who lived in huge clean mansions and had everything they ever even thought about wanting. I woke up so depressed I nearly took the day off.
The problem with the dream was – I wasn’t in it. Not only that, but I was totally aware I wasn’t in it, and I realized nobody I knew or ever would know was in it either. It was more or less like the opposite of dying after counting on Heaven and finding nothing but blackness. It just makes you want to say: “Phooey! The heck with it!”

But I recovered when I ran across this super-cute Victorian print. It was in an estate I bought a few weeks ago, and I didn’t even know it until I unpacked the box this morning. I tried to keep the glare off the glass, but you can still see some here and there. The print is in nice condition.
How cute! Mutt puppies! But the cat is thinking: “You fool! Don’t you realize what those are going to grow up to be?!”

Vintage HINDU / BUDDHIST Goddess CARVED GRANITE STATUE
sold for $297
I’m not trying to start any kind of debate here, but . . . some religious idols are sexier than others.
If you’ve followed along with me here at 341 over the years, you probably already know I’m neither enthusiastic nor knowledgeable about religious things. Well, , , since I was born in southern Indiana, I recognize most items used by Baptists and Pennycostals and such like that, but get much outside the Midwestern part of the United States, and I can’t tell one from the other.
Now hold on! I’ve got nothing against a person’s right to think or believe whatever he or she deems reasonable. I’m sure if I’d been born into a Hindu family, I’d know Hindu stuff. And if I’d been born into a Buddhist home, the symbols Buddhism would be familiar to me. As a matter of fact, I guess that’s the reason I’m not hooked up with a sect, cult, church or any other cluster of people who think they have the answers. I wouldn’t bet on drawing to an inside straight, and I wouldn’t bet on an accident of birth having much to do with Eternal Truth.
HOWEVER – When I discovered this carved granite statue a few months back, I realized some religious statues have a lot going for them. So I put her in my garden, and that’s where she’s been living. I sorta enjoy looking at her.
OK . . . We never had anything like that in Greene County, Indiana. I believe she’s carrying a book, and since I love books, that makes three things I love about her.
NOW THIS IS IMPORTANT: Did you notice she’s big and she weighs almost 50 pounds? Ok. Just so we’re clear on that.
She has flowers on her legs. That’s another nice thing about her.
That base measures 9” by 6”, so she stands up with good stability. AGE? I really don’t have a clue. She’s not an antique, but she’s been around. If you staked me out on an anthill in the sun and forced me to guess, I’d say she was around fifty years old. But that would just be a guess. She could be quite a bit older or a little younger.
I’ll knock that dirt off there before I send her your way.
You know what’s nice about eBay? Some kind soul will write and tell us all who she is and what she stands for, and I’ll post it for you to see. Then again, I may be the only goofball on the planet who doesn’t already know.
If nobody wants her, I’ll just put her back in my garden. Come to think of it, nothing bad has happened out there during all the time she stood guard. Hmmmm . .

Authentic ANTIQUE Blue /White CUT SPONGEWARE BOWL 1800s
only $38.
CAUTION: You’re liable to get hooked on collecting this type country pottery if you’re not careful. The good part is: You don’t find it very often. And the bad part is: You don’t find it very often.
This bowl is sweet as sweet can be, and it’s in nice condition. There are no chips, crack or disappointments. All you’ll find are the signs of age and use, which is what makes antiquing such a joy.It is 3 ½” tall and 5 ½” in diameter, but the size matters less than the design AND the shape of the side. It was gracefully formed – not just made as a straight-sided or rounded-side piece.
I wish I knew the maker, but I don’t. I have more of a feel for the age. It’s likely from somewhere around the time just after the American Civil War; wouldn’t you think?
Just as you’d hope, you’ll find little glaze imperfections here and there. The really good old pieces have experience and that experience is part of what makes us desirable. (Oops. Did I say “us?” That was just a slip-up.) I was thinking back to something I told a pretty little young gal I saw sitting alone down at Big Helen’s Bar and Billiards a few weeks ago. It was obvious she’d been crying, and that usually means “she’d been done wrong” by some young man with very little sense.
I slid over and tried to cheer her up. It was the gentlemanly thing to do. It took me only a few minutes to get a half smile out of her.
That’s when I slipped up. Acting too quickly, I tried an approach I’d been thinking about for a few years, and this was the first opportunity I’d had to use it. I said, “Once you go geezer, you’ll never go back.”
She held her palm up to my face and attempted a smile through her red-rimmed eyes.
OK. So it didn’t work that time, but that doesn’t mean it won’t someday. Real patience is something you learn over time – kinda like in duck hunting.

Haz cheezburgrz in Egypt, but u bringed us wher no haz cheezburgrz. We is dyin 2 haz cheezburgr."
4 Tehn CEILING CAT sez 2 Moses, "Hakkkkh hakkkhh hakkk hhhhaqqqqqqq blehhhhh", for CEILING CAT did much gruming, and expelt furz and cheezburgrz frum hiz belly. He then sez "I throwz exter cheezburgrz 2 u frum ceiling." An' Moses sez, "gross--want nu cheezburgrz." An' CEILING CAT sez, "OK--Teh ppl are 2 go out each day n gather enuf Nu cheezburgrz 4 taht day. Iz test 2 c if tehy suck."5 On teh 6th day tehy are 2 nuke teh cheezburgrz, n taht is 2 b twice as much as tehy scarf up on teh other days."
6 So Moses n Aaron sez 2 all teh j00s, "Tonite u wil no taht it were CEILING CAT who brung u out o Egypt,7 n in teh morning u wil see teh awsomness o CEILING CAT, cuz him chekd out ur flame war gainst him. Who are we, taht u should flame us?"8 Moses also sez, "U wil no taht it were CEILING CAT when him gives u beef paties n cheez 2 eat in teh evening n all teh bunz u want in teh morning, cuz him has chekd ur flame gainst him. Who are we? U are not flamin us, but CEILING CAT."
9 Tehn Moses tol Aaron, "Say 2 teh entire j00 cr00, 'Cum b4 CEILING CAT, 4 him red ur flam war n him not hapy kitteh.'"10 While Aaron were talkin 2 teh hole j00 cr00, tehy lukd @ teh desert, n there waz teh awsomnes o CEILING CAT in a clowd. Wuz shapd like kitteh, srsly.11 CEILING CAT was laik Moses,12 "I herd teh flamin o teh j00s. Tell em, 'At twilight u can haz cheezburgr, n in teh morning u can haz bunz. Tehn u wil no taht I am CEILING CAT.'"
13 taht nite cheezburgrz covered teh camp, n in teh morning was a layer o dew in teh camp.14 When teh dew were gon, lil flaks like frost on teh groun is on teh sand.15 When teh j00s saw it, tehy sez, "Wut iz?" 4 tehy did not no wut it was.
Moses sez 2 them, "It is teh bunz CEILING CAT givz u.
16 This is wut CEILING CAT has sez: 'Oh, hai. Each j00 is 2 scarf as much as him needs. Take a omer 4 each person u have in ur tent.'"
17 Teh j00s did as tehy waz tol; some got much, some little.18 n when tehy count it, teh lamzorz taht no haz much haz plenty n teh h4x w/ plenty has enuf. Each getz rite amownt.19 Tehn Moses is laik, "No 1 is 2 keep any of it til morning."20 Chek it, some o tehm didn lisen 2 Moses; tehy kept part til morning, but tehy changd frm laik big j00cy duble meet windyz burgrz 2 laik dryd up wite cassle slidrz w/ t00 much onyuns n startz 2 stank laik bill gatez. So Moses were pissd.21 Each morning teh j00z getz as much as them needz, n when teh sun grewz hot, it melted laik choklit bar on teh dash.
22 On teh 6th day, tehy gathered twice as much—two omers 4 eech—an teh hed d00dz o teh cr00 came n reported this 2 Moses.23 him iz laik, "This is wut CEILING CAT sed: 'Tomorrow is day o rest, a holy Sabbath 2 CEILING CAT win him laikz to lye on windo sil in sun n iz al lazy. So bake wut u want 2 bake n boil wut u want 2 boil. Save whatever is left n keep it til morning.'"24 So tehy saved it til morning, as Moses sed, n it did not turn 2 wite casle slidrz or stank lik bil gatez.25 Moses is laik, "Eat it today because today is a Sabbath 2 CEILING CAT. u wil not find any cheezburgrz lyin aroun on teh sand today.26 Six days u are 2 gather cheezburgrz, but on teh 7th, teh Sabbath, there wil not b any."
27 Any wai, some lusers went out on teh 7th day 2 gather cheezburgrz, but haz none.28 Tehn CEILING CAT sez 2 Moses, "How long wil u keep tryin to pwn al my base?29 Me tol u dis my day to lye in windo in sun; taht is why on teh 6th day me gives u cheezburgrz 4 two days. Evry1 is 2 stay where him is on teh seventh day; no one is 2 go out 2 luk 4 cheezburgrz laik lamzorz."30 So teh lamerz finly rested on teh 7th day ffz.

Obama Weighs Options In Afghanistan
Pressure is mounting on President Obama to make a decision on the future of Afghanistan.
Here are the options currently being considered:
Not only learn the lessons of Vietnam, but apply them as well
Visit; act fascinated by their rugs
Remove every American soldier; see if fighting continues
Legalize gambling, as that's worked well domestically
Thunderdome-style battle to the death between Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal and Afghanistan Taliban leader Mullah Omar
Call the Taliban pretending to be the Prophet Muhammad and tell them to stop ambushing American soldiers
Announce you're raising troop levels by 15,000, then pull everybody out, then come back with a half million soldiers, in the process convincing al-Qaeda that you're loco and not to be messed with
Arm and finance a group of religious fighters
Back the murderous drug-dealing warlord with the most government officials in his pocket

ANTIQUE Cast Brass PLAQUE Nude FIGURE, ART DECO Breasts
$152
I just discovered this gal last week. Even though I can’t be certain, I think I know what drew me to her.
Sometimes a gal feels like wearing just one piece of clothing. I think this gal made the right choice: A neck scarf.
She is approximately 3/8” thick with a flat back. I see no markings.
Obviously, she was made to be mounted. See the hole where her cute little bellybutton should be? (Oops. Sorry.)
She has beautiful long legs. They start at the floor and go all the way up to where they should, and that’s where they end.

REAL Antique KITCHEN Hanging SPICE CABINET – 8 Drawers
sold for $78
I listed another spice cabinet a minute ago. (eBay Item # 360205916778 ) In the listing I had just mentioned loading a pig in a truck with a bunch of cats and a retired “lady of the evening.” I ran out of room telling the story, so I’ll finish it here . . . . gotta second?

As you can see, spice cabinets have stacked up on me. I’m sure there are at least six or eight more in the barn. I’ll be selling them one or two at a time.

This auction is for the one shown above. It is almost 17” tall, and it’s in nice, mellow condition. I’d just give it a little polish or wax and let it go at that. It’s a nice country look . . . That’s because that’s exactly what it is; Country as a plow mule.
Looks to me like it was for sale at one time many, many, many years ago – by someone who forgot how to spell “cabinet.”
So, as I said in the listing of the other spice cabinet, we had the pig loaded, the cats scatted away, back inside the barn, and me and old lady Scantland, a retired “country call girl” were walking up the hill toward her house. (“Call girl” isn’t a good term to use in her case. When she was in her prime and active there wasn’t but a couple phones in the entire county.)

(“Call girl” isn’t a good term to use in her case. When she was in her prime and active there wasn’t but a couple phones in the entire county.)
When we got to her back steps she put her right foot on the first step then pushed down on her knee with her right hand. “Whew,” she said, “Give an ole lady a hand, will ya boy?”
We made the three steps just fine and reach the screen door. I could already hear cats, and a yellow kitten had climbed over halfway up the screen, and was hanging there like one of those annoying stuffed cats you see on people’s car windows nowadays. That kitten was yelling like a banshee. Old lady Scantland tapped the screen right at the belly of that kitten, and it fell to the floor – “blasted cats,” she muttered.
Once inside, I could see that there were at least ten cats in the big ole-timey kitchen. But when we walked into her parlor, my eyes couldn’t help but race around the room, not from cat to cat, but from one piece of incredible old glass, porcelain or other type antique to the next. This ole gal HAD some stuff, and even though I was still in High School, I recognized great antiques when I saw them. I’d been a collector since first grade.
Yeah . . She had a boatload of cats – probably close to forty in the house. But she also had a boatload of antiques. I learned later that she loved the cats and the antiques equally. Over the next few years, Miss Scantland and I developed a rather unusual relationship. Seventy years her junior, I think I was her only living friend. I’ll have to tell you about her sometime.
