HAIR lNSOLES

SWEATY FEET.-Perspirati is a
necessary waste which benefits the sys-
TEN by expelling poison, but it soils
and makes an irritant of anything worn
on the body. If HAIR INSOLES are
worn through the day moisture from the
feet will drain through the top, or hair
part leaving it dry, and at night will
be found at the bottom of the sole, which
will be wet. Hair will not hold mois-
ture, but cloth and leather will. Shoes
soiled by perspiration irritate the feet
and cause trouble. Perspiration is most
constant i'll the feet because the pores
are larger and more capable of abSor-
ption, and relief is had ut once by wear
ing Hair Insoles.
RHEIlMATICS, INVALIDS and
others will obtain great help from these
lnsoloS, which ease and harden the feet
by keeping them dry, and preventing ir-
ritation; they make a springy cushion
and prevent jar in walking and thus
take the place of rubber heels. Price
l0c. per pair.

Now that the agreed case before
Judge Field has been decided
against Taylor, there is but one
more step until the usurper will
reach the end of his rope. In view
of what may occur hereafter, per-
haps we should use different fig
ure of speech and say he win have
played his last card when an APP
peal is taken to court that has al
ready decided every question in
yolved in his case That Taylor
realizes this. is shown by his at
tempt to ill Frankfort again with
armed men on the very day the de-
cision was rendered at louisville,
although he has signed an agree
ment to submit to the judgment of
the courts. The time has now come
to put a stop toTaylor' S foolishness,
He should be at once removed from
the States executive building and
prevented from obstructing the pub
lie business. Care. however, should
be taken to keep him in Frankfort
until the whole truth is known.

1t does not matter whether or not
Taylor was a party to the con-
spiracy hatched under his roof, he
should not be allowed to escape
from Frankfort. He has assisted
criminals to escape, abetted the
fight of fugitives from justice, de-
fed the courts and the law-making
power of the State, usurped office
and misaPpropriated the States

there are sufficient grounds for
