Our friend, Major Goodwin, has be-
come professor. Ho is giving attention
to diseases Of the eye, particularly, the
eradication of wild hairs. We hear he
has magnifying glasses and other appa-
ratus, necessary for the work. The
other day We are told, he extracted sever
al wild hairs from the eyes of patient
very patient fellow, who submitted to
the skillful manipuiations of the profess
sor. True, we are told that the Major
pulled out some OF the mans eyebrows,
under the impression that they we're wild
hairs, but as it was professional man
that reported this, It is probable that this
story comes of professional jealousy, the
more so as this professional asserted that
there were no such things as wild hairs,
while the Major, with his professional ex-
perience, says that no has often found
them and extracted them. When learned
men differ. who shall decide Our own
experience leads us to side with the
Major, for we occasionally como across
them in store butter, etc.

near the depot, and seriously wound
ed. The ball entered little TO the

nearly through his body. DIR. Chris

side door of the Compan!'s factory
for the purpose of entering and feed
ing his team which was in lot just

three shots fred and turning saw
two mon passing through an alley
near him. About that time he felt his
back pain him and on making an ex-

The formation of companies and
syndicates TO purchase and develop
coal, iron and timber land in various
parts Of Kentucky is most encourage
ing sign. There is no natural reason
why Kentucky shouldn't be as great
a mineral and manufacturing State
as Alabama or Pennsylvania. These
kentucky land COMPANIES are not fly
ufthe-creek, wildcat speculations,
built up with fictitious "boom," but
arg, bona tide business enterprises
The coal and iron are actually in the
soil and the timber in the fores.s.
Investment in these schemes is COM
paratiyely safe. 1t is unlike the in
flated, corner-lot speculation which
several mushroom towns have foster
ed only TO end i, collapse. There are
big fortunes in Kentucky, and people
are just waking upto the fact. When
the "boom," which is now holdingup
certainVraggard communities in the
West, falls into collapse, kentucky
will be in the full tide of a substantial
industrial prosperity. We are little
late, but we are going to get there

STATUS OF PROHIBITION,

The New York Sun has been inves-
tigating the status of the prohibition
party. 1t says; "Our good friends, the
prOhibitionists, have taken up a tre-
mendous job. We have noted from
tendency of the party to make the en-
franchisement of women, rather than
the suppression of the liquor traffic, a
main purpose of its existence. This
tendency has become more and more
pronounced during a long series of
local and state conventions, and it has
led at last TO an ont and out declaration
in the national prohibition platform in
iavog OF woman suffrage.
OF course, any political organization
that is at the same time a prohibition
ist party and party of women suff-
rage is, first of all, tor the extension of
the ballot to women, and for the aboli-
ton of tho liquor traffic incidentally.
There is no comparison between the
two issues in respect 10 Importance and
magnitude. One is question of
sumptuary legislation, oI police, of
traffic regulation. The other aims at a
political revolution, such As the world
has never yet witnessed, and change
in American institutions, beside which
the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend
ments would seem insignificant.
II the declaration in favor of woman
suffrage is made by the prohibitionisis
in good iailh-and OF that we have not
the slightest doubt--it means that pro-
hIbition must be hemcetorth the minor
issue. 1t is great job that the third
party has undertaken. Can il hold the
voters on the woman suffrage"

A TEAR HANDKERCHIEF.
From the Philadelphia Press. 4


A beautiful and peculiar custom still
prevails in some parts of the Tyrol.
When girl is going TO he married,
before she leaves her home to 20 to the
church, her mother gives her a hand
kerchief, which is called the "tear
handkerchief Ii is made of newly
spun linen and has never been used.
1t Is with this that she dries her tears
when she leaves her fathers house aud
when she stands vt the altar. After
the marriage is over and the bride has
gone with her husband to their new
home, she folds up the handkerchief
and places it unwashed in the linen
closet, where it remains untouched.
Up to now it has done only half Its
duty. Children are born. grow up,
homes, each daughter receiving a tear
handkerchief from the mother. Her
own still remains where it was placed
i'll the linen closet the day of her mar
riage. Generations come and go. The
once Young, rosy bride has become a
wrinkled old woman. She may have
outlived her husband and all her chill.
dren. All her old friends may have
died off, and yet that last present she
received from her mother has not full
filed its object. 1t comes at last,
though--at last the weary eyelids close
for their long sleep, and the tired,
wrinkled hands are folded over the
pulseless heart. And then the tear
handkerchief is taken from its long
resting place and spread over the
nlaciu features OF The dead This NAV

it did to mine when l first heard it,
but it is beautiful idea for all that,

more lively, we may as we'll say our
good-bys until cur next evening.
