AS General Agent for Morehead
College it is my duty, esteem it a
privilege, to work for "the length

The brick work on the new ten
thousand dollar building, to be
known as Burgess Hall, is rapidly
progressing. The second session
opened with $50 students enrolled
and many Others reported con the

In my travels and labors as an

These need and want work to help
them through school. The most
practical thing now is Broom

MOUNTAIN MISSION BROOM FACTORY.
The minimum number of shares
is one hundred, the maximum two
hundred. shares have been placed
at FIVE DOLLARS each. As soon as
one hundred shares are pledged
the shareholders will be called to-
gether and an organization effecs-
ed. 1t is the intention of the man
agement to return to the share ta-
kers the full amount of their shares
as soon as the receipts will admit.
Students will have the prefer

The enterprise is primarily and
avowedly to aid students Of More

All personal speculation is for
eyer eliminated from the enter
prise. Trustees will be appointed
and all receipts over and above ex-
penses will be sacredly used as an
educational fund for Morehead
College. Hence, wecan plead with
the public on the very highest
to "buy our brooms.
BY so doing all will aid in solving
the problem Of educating the
mountain boys and girls.
In a short canvass Thursday, on
my way to train, my list Of shares

THE HYGIENE OF OLD AGE.


We look upon the aged with good
reason as having a slender hold upon life,
one that may be loosened by a slight
shock OF injury or disease which, in the
young or middle-aged, would serve only
as a stimulus to the reparative vital
powers. This Is a conservative belief,
but 1t warns us to shield our loved ones,
who have fought the fight, from all in
huences which might shorten their stay
with us. But we must not go too far 10
our solicitude, for Injury may be inflicted
and life shortened by coddling the old,
almost as surely by coddling the young.
The vital processes in the aged are slow,
but they are still existent, aud they may
be kept active by gentle opposition and
stimulation, just as they may be increased
in childhood and youth by rough meth.
DDS. DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and
Herb Laxative Compound Is a boon to

Lafayette County Gets Top Prices.

Special to the Intelligencer.
Kansas City, June 1S.-The highest
price ever paid for cattle on the Kansas
City market was paid today for a bunch
of steers bred on the farms of Lafayette
county and fed on corn grown in the
Missouri river bottoms. w. r. Van
Anglen, a we'll known feeder of Hodge,
Mo-, is the man to whom the credit is
due of having topped a cattle market
that has been distinguished fer thirty
years for the high prices it has paid
for beef cattle. MIR. VanAnglen today
marketed 16 head of 3-year-old steers
which averaged 1926 pounds and for
which he received $3.50 a hundred.
The highest previous price vas S7.75,
which was received at Kansas City last
week. Mr.. VanAnglen's steers netted
him, after the freight, commission and
other charges were paid, S104.47 a
head, as much as SO many S-year-old
horses would have brought. They
were fed on shelled corn and timothy
hay. Mr.. VanAnglen said it wasn't
65 cent corn, either, for he bought it a
couple Of years ago for q cents a
bushel.
Mr.. VanAnglen had originally about
1870 head of steers. He marketed the
bulk Of them In January, getting 5000
a hundred for them, the top Of the
market for that month. He says the
ones sold here today were the younger
ones of the bunch, and were not as
good today as the others were when
they were sold in January. The differ
ence in price, 80 cents, represents the
advance in beef cattle on the Kansas
City market since January of this year.

10 memory of Mrs. Isabel Lawhorn
Bowen, who died 1t her home near
Greentou, June 9Th, 1902, after a pro-
tracted illness,of consumption, agea p
years, l month aud % days.
Truly she was loved aud mourned
BY all who knew her.
As we wander down life's pathway,
When the sun has crossed the line,
When the shadows 'gin to lehgthen,
When we near the days decline;
As our footsteps grow aweary,
When we think the sun less bright,
When the joys of earth seem duller,
And we look toward the night;
As we falter, reaching outward,
Strong young fingers clasp our own,
Close beside us, son or daughter,
Lifts the burdens we have known.
Then, we trusting, lean upon them,
And with hearts secure and glad
See once more the many beauties
With whitehall the world Is clad.
How the father feels the uplift
OF the child's strong, healthful arm,
How the gentle, trusting mother
Lays aside all thoughts of harm!
How the sisters, foudly helpful,
And the darling little brother,
We doleupon the youngest,
Who can always comfort mother.
But all unseen, yet nearer, nearer,
Comes the angel softly calling;
No one dreameth of his presence
Till they see the loved n falling.
AS we sadly ask the question
Why has God the prop remoYedP
Comes the answer-that He wllleth
His own love to further prove.
Thus it is with her who lately
Walked among us bright and gay;
Parents, husband leaned upon her,
Learned to trust her day by day.
While her winning way and actions
Bound all hearts so tondly to her,
That her loss has cast a shadow
Upon every one who knew her.
Though she never more will join us,
In this world of sin and pain,
Yet she is not lost dear parents,
And her life was not in vain.
Round our memories still will linger
Acts of kindness she has done,
And her influence live for ever
Though the life seemed just begun.
Naught but kindest smiles and accents
To all around her given;
And we think of her as smiling
In the glorious courts of heaven.
Husband, father, look to Jesus;
Mother, Isabel's with Him now,
And she waits to welcome dear ones
With a crown upon her brow.
Christ's strong arm will never fail you,
Though the storms beat fierce and
wild,
He will safely lead you through them
Till once more you meet your child.

Education
BY l. Q. cRIssY

Education.

EDUCATION Should be limited only
by Interchangeable conditions. BY this I do not mean considerations
of the position to be taken, or the business to be engaged in, by the
student, but conditions that determine the ability or possibility of the
student going farther in his educational work.
Iii comparatively an easy matter for the private schools to adapt
themselves to the conditions Of individual students; but to what ex-
tent the public schools would be justified in attempting this l am not
prepared to say, and il tt IS too large a question to discuss now.

Requirements for the Sue

BY PROF. RICHARD ARNOLD,
vies-Prssidsnt Nsw York Philharmonic Society

HERE is no reason why ambitious American
girls should go to Europe to study music. We
have as good or better teachers in America. We
have the musical atmosphere in our great cities.
We have the temperament. We have the concerts,
the singers, the performers. There is no great
artist in the world but sometimes comes to Amer
lea.
Our American girls are right in their desire
to become great musicians. They are the finest
specimens of womanhood in the world. They are
all around the brightest women, the most lovely,
the most intelligent.
Given the ordinary common school education,
with the finishing influences Of a high school,
where boys and girls are taught Americanism and
classic lore together, they are pretty well fitted

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Sept. 1.-THE cotton mar
ket opened easy, with prices l to
points lower in sympathy with weak
ness in the Liverpool market, where
1t was reported Southern spot cotton
longs had been selling as a hedge. The
private cables also gave the heavy re-
ce1pts, improved weather conditions
South and better average crop news
as features leading liquidation and
pear selllng. The close of the English
market was easy and net to 31h
points lower, with sentiment bearish.
Following the call, there was a slight
rally In the market here on prof1t-tak-
ing by the more easily satisfied shorts,
put later in the morning the market
again developed weakness and broke
rapidly under reports of freer spot
offerings South and rumors that the
wall street faction was putting out a
large short interest in March for
protracted break later under the big
movement. Estimates for Tomorrow
receipts, however, were not as large
as predicted, and boil weevil ravage
complaints began to sift in from
Texas. Still later, report had it that
the corn market was up on a cold
wave in the grain belt Denver tenn
perature was said to have dropped
from 40 degrees at 8 a. M to-day to
80 degrees at noon, which would in
dlcate remarkable rapid movement
southwark of the cold wave which this
morning was central on the Northwest
Canadian border. The shorts did not
like these reports, though skeptical
of a frost scare at this time of the
season. January jumped up to SIZE
from S.21c, and other months in pro-
portion. The close was steady, with
prices net to 10 points lower. Total
sales were estimated at $50. 900 bales.
