Kentucky Game Law.

The following is verbatim copy of
the Kentucky game law
SENATORS, Governors and members
of congress may be shot during any
political campaign and within sixty
days thereafter.
"Niggers can be shot at any time.
Hunters in search of this game are
also allowed to use stuffed club or
butcher knife.
eff any man is caught drinking
water it is a sign that he is no gentle
man, sab, and may be executed with
whatever weapon is nearest at hand.
Colonels may be shot with impunity
at any time, while II squirrel gun is
recommended for dispatching majors
and captains.
No man shall be allowed to kill in
excess of six persons per day. In cases
where it is an affair of honor, this
number may be increased to 103.
Every citizen who does not tote the
remains of his victim from public
sight within forty-eight hours OF the
time the first volley was fired, will be
fined one gallon moonshine.
Any citizen who steps OH another
citizens toes may be shot on the spot
with the privilege of apologizing
thereafter.
Ii a citizen leaves home half shot
and is found on the street short time
thereafter full OF buck shot, that is his
fault, and his relatives are not allowed
to shoot more than II suspects in
their efforts to find the guilty person"

"Needles and pins, needles ard pins;
when man marries his trouble begins"
is probably the burden of Admiral
Dewey's song. The heat in Manila
bay wasn't circumstance to the hot
water he has been in ever since his
last matrimonial venture, and now
Mrs. Dewey has come still further into
the public view in u suit brought to
clear the title OF some building lots
which her former husband won in a
poker game.

Any man who is willing to renounce

Any man who is willing to renounce
his religious or political faith for the
sake of social position or public office
is not to be trusted in any capacity.
The pertinence of this statement can
not be questioned by honest people.
This remark is not intended for any
particular individual, faction or party,
but to everybody in general, with the
hope that if temptation presents itself,
some may profit thereby. Nothing,
save honest dealing, wins in the end.
Therefore obeying the dictates of a
well trained conscience is the only
safe course to happy success.

A good general always plans his
campaigns having in view the material
welfare of his men. Tatterdemalions
may play part, but it is always Of
minor Importance Discipline, with
its enormous detail, is absolutely
necessary to the perfection OF an
organization, whether formed for fight
ing men or fire. 1t is in the recogni-
ton OF needful details and in ham
mering them into working shape, in
minimizing arduous labors, perfecting
the material, Strengthening the per-
sonnet and in improving methods.

The total vote in the electoral col
lege will be the same this year as it
was in 1896, when Mckinley received
271 electoral votes and Bryan 176.
The Bryan leaders calculate that
Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, Mary
land and West Virginia are more like
ly to favor than to be against Bryan
this year. But if these five states
should give Bryan their electoral
votes, and he should lose none of the
states that he carried in 1896, he would
have only 200 ELECTORAL votes, against
227 for Mckinley, assuming that the
latter's losses were confined to these
five states.

The assertion that the Standard Oil
Company will secure the greater share
OF the compensation provided in the
shipping is maliciously untrue. Not
a dollar of that money goes to that
company. Their vessels engaged in
the carrying of oil are ineligible to
any compensation under the bill. The
assertion that the Standard Oil Com
pany controls the only American line
in our transatlantic trade, made by
the enemies of the shipping bill, is
utterly devoid OF truth.

One Of the safeguards of this country

One Of the safeguards of this country
is that so many people own the houses
they live in. 1t is people who own
nothing themselves who advocate uni
versal smashup. They want every
thing to go to pieces so they can pick
up some of the wreck. By so much
as men own property do they become
conservative. In our country becom-
ing a freeholder is often II step toward
virtuous citizenship. Good counsel
to all young married people is to plan
for the purchase OF a home as soon as
that be practicable. Toll for home
though you toll for twenty years.
What you have been finging away in
frivolity, put into a homestead. The
attempt to secure home has saved
many young people for both worlds.
1t leads them into sobriety and
practically which helps ones morals
as well as his finances. Do not make
the mistake OF SO many that you must
wait until you get u great home.
Many people in the early part of their
life have had more happiness in a
house with four rooms than they have
in later life in a house they built with
twenty rooms. Luxuriant table can
not give appetite, nor embroidered
canopy produce sleep, nor imperial
divan yield quiet. 1t does not depend
so much upon the style OF the house
as upon the disposition you take into
it. The house in which the peace OF
God reigns is we'll furnished. A cradle
on one side OF the house, the grand
fathers arm chair on the other side,
an altar between, and the house is
well balanced.

Do not permit the children to form
the habit of disputing and quarreling
with each other. 1t may be prevented
like other bad habits, by watchfulness,
particularly if the training is begun
when the children are very young.
Separation is the best punishment,
breaking up the play and taking away
the cause of the dispute. Children
are social beings and do not like to
play alone. They dislike solitude,
and if they find it invariably the re-
suit of quarreling they will take pains
to be more amiable SO as not to be
forced into it.
