A Kentucky Man Who Has Erected
Monuments to His Kin and Animals.
In well-appointed home in May
field, surrounded by all the comforts
of life, lives Col. Henry Woodbridge,
one of the country's oldest citizens and
the last of his race" says the Louis
Vile Post. When in the flush OF
young manhood he was reckoned the
champion deer, bear and fox hunter
in the Purchase, and many were the
trophies he carried home from his nu-
merOus hunting expeditions. His room
is a veritable hunters paradise, filled
with highly priced specimens of forest
and stream. At the age of 81 he loves
to call his friends about him and tell
of his early proves as exhibited in
marsh, canebrake, river bottom and
mountain fastness. Col. Woodbridge Is
eccentric in one particular-his fond
ness for his brothers, kin, favorite
dogs, horses and game in marble. In
a little Enclosure in the Mayfield GEM
etery, not over eighteen by thirty six,
somely chiseled granite statues. Four
are monuments erected to the memory
of his brothers, John H., w. F., Alfred
N. and William. Two are to perpetu-
ate the memory of beloved nieces, two
are representatives of the colonels
favorite foxhounds, Towhead and Bob.
In front of these marble likenesses are
a fox, deer, bear, panther and
near, with head thrown back, as IL
seeming the fox chase or bear-hunt
afar, stands life-size image in stone
of the good old mans bluegrass hunt
ing stallion, Dick. All these are life
size. There is also a large sarcopha-
gus at the back of the burial lot, sur.
mounted by pedestal bust OF the
owner, and just in front of the vault
is an equestrian statue of Col. Wool
ridge, made of Michigan granite. A
perfect reproduction of the old woods
mans favorite rifle, in bas-relief,
hangs over the door of the stone rest
ing place for the dead This work is
the best that lavish expenditure of
money could secure. And now the
owner of these has long been ready for
the final summons. He has for several
years had in his bedroom an elegant
rosewood casket and burial robe. He
has always been bachelor has been
successful in all of his business ven
lures and is a useful citizen. There
will be many tear shed when the re-
spected old man is gathered to his
fathers.

SHAKESPEARE IN LONDON.

lie Was Known by Everybody He
Knew All the Notables.
Shakespeare's London was small
city of from 10000 to 100000 souls,
or about the size of Providence or
Minneapolis at the present time, says
the Atlantic. In cities of such size
everybody Of the slightest eminence
is known all over town, and such per-
sons are sure to be more or less ac-
quainted with one another; 1t is a
very rare exception when 1t is not so
Before his thirtieth year Shakespeare
was we'll known in London as an &C.
tor, a writer of plays and the managA
of prominent theater. In that year
Spenser, in his Colin Clout's Come
Home Again." abiding to Shakespeare
under the name of Action, or "eagle-
like" paid him this compliment:
"And there, though last, not least, is Ae'
ton;
A gentler shepherd may nowhere be
Whose muse full of high thoughts in
vention,
Doth, like himself, heroically sound"
Four years after this, in 1898, Fran
els Meres published his book entitled
"Palladis Tamia," very interesting
contribution to literary history. The
author, who had been an instructor in
rhetoric in the University of Oxford.
was then living in London, near the
Globe theater. In this book MereG
tells his readers that "the sweet, witty
soul of Ovid live in mellifuous and
honey-tongued Shakespeare; witness
his Venus and Adonis, his Lucrece, his
sugared sonnets among his private
friends" etc. To suppose that such
man as this in town the size Of Min
neapolis, connected with a principal
theater, writer of the most popular
plays Of the day, poet whom men
were already coupling with Homer
and Pindar-to suppose that such q
man was not known to all the educated
people of the town is simply absurd.
There were probably few men, women
or children in London, between 1895
and 1910, who did not know who
Shakespeare was when he passed them
in the street; and as for such wits as
drank ale and sack at the Mermaid,
as for Raleigh and Bacon and Selden
and the rest, to suppose that Shakes
peare did not know them well-nay,
to suppose that he was not the leading
spirit and brightest wit of those am
brosial nights-is about as sensible rs
to suppose that he never saw may
pole.

PATENTS.


The enormous inventive talent of
the citizens of the United States has
made the Patent Office at Washington
one OF the sights of the country,
and one of the busiest and
most important departments of our
industrial economy. 1t has also given
rise to distinctive and arduous pro-
fessfon-namely, that of patent So
licitor, and it is profession that re-
quires more varied and versatile
knowledge than any other to practice
successfully. How essential, then,
must it be for inventors to employ
those who are thoroughly capable and
efficient, with large experience and
adequate facilities for expediting any
business placed in their hands.
The writer has had it explained to
him that in obtaining patent there
is regular routine to be observed,
and that in many cases when improp-
erly drawn claims are filed, it is to
the loss of the inventor; and when his
drawing and specifications are unin-
telligible and insufficient, it necessi-
tates new papers, and often causes
ultimately heavier expenses sacrifice
of time, and perhaps costly litigation.
This emphasizes the force of our state
ment that inventors should be very
careful whom they employ to draw
their applications, and to whom they
intrust their interests.
The honorable patent lawyers of
the country are discussing the advis-
ability of forming patent bar, with
strict rules of practice, which would
shut out the lottery and fake methods
which are bringing the profession into
disrepute and demoralizing inventors
and would-be inventors. The discuss
ion is good thing and ought to be
kept up until something has been
done. But the poor inventors need
protection from the charlatans more
than the lawyers. q,
We have had our attention drawn
to this subject through receiving in
quiries from our readers, who, having
inventions they wish to patent, want
to find suitable firm to advise and
help them. 10 answer these we refer
them to Higdon & Higdon, patent at
torneys, located in the Diamond Build
ing, Kansas City, Missouri.
Messrs. Higdon & Higdon have prac-
ticed this profession with uniform sue
cess for many years, and are, in con-
sequence, more suited and experienced
to help inventors than any other at
torneys we are aware Of Their ref.
erences are of the highest, Of which
we convinced ourselves before endors-
ing them. For this reason we feel
justified in recommending those who
have written to us to communicate
with Messrs. Higdon & Higdon, who
will give all the information needed.

Fifty-Three Deaths In One Small
Town In Less Than Four Weeks.

Town In Less Than Four Weeks.
A preventive and cure for diphtherla,
Group, tonsilitis, quinsy and all
throat troubles recently placed up
on the market has achieved such
marvellous success as to greatly
stir up the medical fraternity. Its
power over diphtheria seems almost
miraculous, as it stops its spread as
II by magic.
Grantsburg, Wisconsin, population
less than four hundred, was visited by
a terrible epidemic of diphtheria, dur
ing which fifty-three of its inhabitants
died in less than four weeks. After
much urging by the friends Of Muco-
Solvent, the authorities decided to use
it, and thereupon telegraphed for
large supply, which arrived the next
day at o'clock, and by o'clock every
man, woman and child in Grantsburg
were taking Muco-Solvent, with the re-
suit that not another death oc-
Cured, whereas, up to the very
hour its use was commenced, not
day, for two weeks, had passed
without from one to five deaths. Many
other epidemics have been quickly
stamped out by Muco-Solvent, not
ably at Madison, Polar, Winneconne
and Neenah. Wisconsin.
We earnestly advise every mother to
procure Muco-Solvent and keep it in
the house ready for prompt use for
every i'll, however slight, especially If
accompanied with sore throat, cough
or cold, and thus, in many Instances,
prevent diphtheria or some other Sc
rious ailment the presence of which Is
not even suspected. Pleasant to
take. 1t can be procured by
sending the price $1.00 per bot

1856 Dearborn street, Chicago, upon
receipt of which they will send it,
charges prepaid.
They will upon application, send free
a book of forty pages entitled "Chats
with Mothers" which every mother
should read. They desire agents

The improvements on the main line
of the Baltimore and Ohio, west of.
and between Martinsburg, w. Va, and
North Mountain, were completed NO
vember list. They cover distance OF
nearly four miles, starting three miles
west of Martinsburg, and extending
some distance west of Myers Hole,
which is near the North Mountsin sta
ton. At Myers Hole the line was
changed, taking out some very ob1ec-
tionable curvature, and the roadbed
raised nearly fifteen feet, eliminating
two grades of AZ feet per miles which
came together at Myers Hole, and sub
shutting therefor an almost level
track. This point on the road has
always been dangerous one and
many freight wrecks have occurred
there. Apart from doing away with
the dangerous feature Of two sharp
down grades coming together, as was
the case in this instance, the saving in
operation of the road by the change
will be very large, as 1t enables the
tons per train to be greatly increased
and reduces the liability to accident to
the minimum.
At Tablers the road bed has been
lowered about thirteen feet, and the
same at Tabs, besides taking out OBJ
jectionable curvature and reducing the
rate of grades at these points from AZ
feet per mile to ten feet per mile, thus
increasing the cars that can be hauled
per train. Though these improve
ments have cost quite sum of money
the expenditure is fully justified by
the great saving in operation.
