by the adoption Of new automatic mech

manner. IL first ground 10 powder, and IN
place of the ordinary boiler firebox there is
a combustion chamber in the form Of a
closed furnace lined with firebrick and
having an injector similar In construction
20 those used In oil burning furnaces. This
chamber has two openings one on tha
center line and in the place al the usual

placed IN the latter aperture and throws a

The reason for this, as London srnort-

Danger Just Ahead.
A Prominent Professor Speaks About
the Threatening Things Abroad at
This Time Of the Year.

1T is surprising how many people are suffering
today from so-called coughs, colds and Influenza
The remark made by very prominent pro-
fessor. connected with Of the leading New York
hospitals Continuing, he said:
1T is not these things that troubling peo-
pie, but it is an advanced form Of our old enemy,
the grip. People feel out of sorts. sneeze have
pains in the muscles and bones. have no appetite,
lose all interest in the world and wonder what is
the matter. 1t is the grip nothing else.
Now, all such symptoms need to have prompt
treatment The attack must be met and repealed
at once, it is certain to run into something
serious. I know Of but one way to certainly avoid
these troubles which now so common. and that
is, to immediately counteract them by using n
good. pure strong stimdant. Nothing Of the ordi-
nary Kind but something pure and scientific. For
this purpose nothing has ever equaled Duny's Pure
Malt Whisky, which is acknowledged today by
physicians and scientific people TO be the only pure,
medicinal malt whisky upon the market
The words of the professor are true and they
carry wonderful meaning to many men and women
who suffering with the first symptoms of grip.
or else grip in its advanced stages For all such
people We Cfer word of advice: which Is TO take
the best means to overcome these troubles and do
not permit any dealer TO swerye you from your
purpose TO have that which has proven itself by
years of TO be the best and purest stimulant
in the worId.

COL. BRECkINRIDGE,s DISTRICT.
w. c. Owens Endorsed at an Enthusi-
astic Meeting.

A large and enthusiastic crowd greeted
W. &. Owens at Lexington, Ky, yesterday.
He is a candidate for Congress in opposition
to Col. Breckenridge. The occasion was the
organization of an owens Club, and the
Lexington Opera House was filled to the
walls.
John Smith of Paris made an address IN
dorsing Mr.. Owens for Congress, appealing
to the young men of the district to sup
port Mr.. Owens.
Mr. Owens was introduced, and said: 1T
is not my purpose to inaugurate at this
early day e public campaign for political
preferment in this district, but when my
friends apprised me of their intention OF
rendering me this reception l could not de-
cline their invitation to address this audi
ence."
Referring to Henry Clay and John c.
Brecklnridge he continued The civic
crown of honor for which 1 strive has been
often proudly won and grandly worn
that he who seeks II now, though holder by
far than L dare be, must need approa CHI
with fear and trembling. Whether we turn
on the one hand to the beautiful cemetery,
where from its green SWard towering
shaft springs heaVenward to wake the men,
OrleS OF the great cOmmOner, or on the
other to your public mart, where from your
very doorway the bronze memento pro-
claims kentucky's pride, the air is redolent
with songs of love and praise for your
glorious dead, and resonant with warnings
for him who seeks unworthily to lift the
mantle fallen from forms of such heroic
mold"
He closed with beautiful perorati ton of a
pledge not to dishonor the position should
1t be entrusted to him.
