CLOvERpORT'S FIRE.
Town Almost Completely Wiped

Fire broke out at Cloverport
last Thursday night, and famed
by a stiff breeze, the flames held
high carnival. When morning
dawned about fifty families were
homeless aud without food. and
every business house and indus
trial plant in the town except one
had been licked up with their
contents.
In all about seventy-five build
inge were destroyed aud that
thriving little city of something
over 1000 inhabitants was almost
completely wiped out, causing
losses that aggregated between
100000 and 800, 900, about $l25,-
600 of which was insured.
The town has no water works
and the people were at the mercy
Of the flames. Louisville, Ow.

son were telegraphed for aid, but
before it could reach there the
town was in ashes. Nothing
could be saved Stores and resi-
dences had their contents hustled
into the streets, but flying sparks
set fire to them and consumed
them. A number of unfortunates
will be able TO rebuild and resume
business. but many had not dol
lar of insurance and lost every
thing they possessed.

0steopathy o Boon to Women.
From Our Special Correspondent.
FRANKLIN. Ky,
a March 18th 1901.


Ed. PRESS; SO many people ask
regarding the value OF Osteopath y
in those troubles peculiar to We
men that we quote the following
from the Rev. Mason w. PRESLEY,
of Philadelphia:
The FIRST remark that awaken
cd a deep interest concerning Os-
teopathy was made by Mrs. j. b,
Foraker, wife of the United States
Senator from Ohio. She said:
There is really no need of woman
suffering. as she does, with Osteo-
patty We did not then under
stand the import of her remark.
for We were then ignorant Of fe-
male complaints and of Osteopa-
thy. Vow We understand. We
are stiA surprised at the marvel.
Gus results reached by osteopath-
ic treatment in cases Of difficult,
suppressed or painful menstrual
tiou. II is simply unnecessary that
any woman should suffer from
these CEASES. Such cases are due
a fall, or displacement, or poor
circulation, or weak nerve action.
The pains in the snBll of the back
the neuralgia suffering, the aches
on either side of the lower abdo-
men. and the depression from
which % many women suffer, are
unnecessary. And yet very many
poor sufferers think that these ex-
periences are the common lot of
women. This is not true. We
have many cases in which from
three to five days of suffering eve-
~ month has given way to an al
most painless experience that did
not interrupt the ordinary engage
ments. With release from the
monthly drain and strain upon the
woman's nervous vitality, there is
an invariable increase lof strength
and general improvementof the
health. Ostsopathy asks the sim
pie question, "Why should the
women suffer as they dor"
We certainly agree with these
words of Rev. Mr.. PRESLEY and
believe with Mrs. Foraker that
there is really no need for women
to suffer with osteopathy in reach.
Hundreds after trying all the diff
erent drugs and finding no relief,
give osteopathy trial and thous-
ands of healthy women today tes-
tify to the wonderful success of
osteopathy.
We have proficient lady physi-
clans and are prepared to give ev-
cry care and attention to patients.
The very worse cases are being
cured, and there is no need giving
up hope until you have tried oste-
opathy. Do not delay, but give
Osteopathy a chance at your case
while cure is possible. We will
be glad to answer any inquiries re
the treatment or regard
ing the cuse of any .of your read
ers. All communications conf

The STOCK LAW.
Some Sensible Views OF a Crit.
tenden County Farmer.

With rough lumber worth one
dollar per hundred at the mill,
with wire and other fencing mate.
tial high, and with outside range
becoming worthless, the problem
Of stock and fence will continue
30 demand the attention of the far.
mers Of this county
Probably a stock law like that
Of Illinois would not suit our con-
ditiou. In that State no stock is
allowed 10 run at large; but ia
some Of the rougher counties of
Ohio and Indiana they have n mo-
lifted form OF the same law, in
which certain kinds 81 stock only
Is allowed on the common.
IN the opinion Of the writer
something 81 this sort would suit
the conditions Of this section. In
fact II Was suggestsl 10 him 10y a
Prominent farmer and stocs raiser
81 this neighborhood that we have
hog law.
Of all farm animals the hog is
the most expensive to fence against
md the least benefited by outside
range. More than half the fenc-
ing is for his benefit, as hgures
which We shall give further on will
prove.
As We said, the hog is least ben
gifted. Ia fact il is positive in
Jary Cor him 10 run outside. What
lttle mast there is only brings on
disease, while running out spreads
cholera and swine plague, from
which thousands Of dollars worth
die in this county annually. Yet
there is another disadvantage that
possibly you have never Thought
about. There will be little im-
proysinent in stock so long as il is
allowed to shift for itself Moth.

But To the cost, and figures
won't lie
Have you ever estimated the
cost u the fencing on your fa-mY
Have you ever calculated the cost
# the lumbcr in itY What kind
Of fence are you going TO bnildY
You can't use rails for there is not
enough timber in the county tot
fence it IL you were foolish enough
g. use timber worth one dollar per
hundred that way. That was all
right when we were clearing land,
aud no market for lumber.
Probably the least expensive aud
hest all purpose fence is the 80
foot picket fence with n barbed
wire at the top. Now the propo-
tition that wo wish to submit for
your consideration is this:
II hogs were not allowed to run
at large the five wires used in the
picket fence would make a good
fence for other stock We will save
the pickets, half the posts, tho
work of weaving the pickets, and
a more durable fence, The saving
is more than you would think,
without making the calculation.
Counting two 3 inch pickets to
the foot there would be in one
mile 9249 feet OF lumber. There I
need be only half as many posts in
wire fence, as every farmer under
stands. II posts are IA feet apart,
