all times on questions Of health and

They know what is good for us better
than we know ourselves. As long IS
smallpox is contagious and boards of
health in Kentucky exercise the power
vouchsafed to them by law, people or
dered to the pest house must go there
according to the late decision. One
great trouble in Psducah has always
been that the board of health never at
tempted to exercise its prerogatives
and powers, and the city has been
without the advantages of one for two
years because the members do not
seem to understand their authority as
such and have evidently waited for
somebody else to discharge the duties
of their office for them.
1t is time for them to awake.

ABOUT ISSUING BONDS.

Lexington papers are trying to in
still into the people the spirit Of enter
prise, as the papers of Psducsh are
trying to do. The Leader a day or
two ago gave utteranoe to some very
sensible opinions, which might apply
in Paducah as we'll II said;
Lexington cannot hope to fill the
measure of its usefulness il the miser-
able, hap-hszard methods Of the past
are to continue. There must be an
awakening and . regeneration, and
there is no better way to begin than
by the construction of scientific sys-
tenn Of sewerage based upon an inteli-
gent conception Of present and future
needs of the city. Other improvements
will follow, such as paved streets,
better sidewalks and decent tenement
houses, but sewerage is the first great
consideration in any comprehensive
plan toiuplift the city and make ii the
ideal metropolis of the far-fsmed Blue
Grass region.
AN issue OF $780, 900 worth of
sewerage bonds at per cent interest
means an annual interest charge Of
only s6, 900 per year, q mere baga-
telle compared with the enormous
sums spent every year for which the
taxpayers receive no temporary re-
turns or permanent improvement. The
people do not object to reasonable tax
alton when they see their money |
we'll spent, and every thoughtful cit
Izen is bon Ind to admit that this will
be the best investment the city has
ever made"

Will Do the Same for
Every Woman.
Paine's Celery
Compound
Cures a Lady
Who Was Told That Her Life
Depended Upon a Surgical
Operation.

The greatest misfortune Of the
present generation is that wives and
mothers are SO frequently untitled for
the duties of life and domestic enjoy
ment by reason of broken down health
and overtaxed systems. The duties of
women Of all ages are really more
worrying and wearing than the troub-
les met with by men. Social, house
hold and often business cares press
upon women very heavily. In this
way the delicate nerves and sensitive
organs become deranged, suffering en-
sues and life becomes . burden that
many carry to the grave.
For the special weaknesses to which
women so often fall victims medical
science has provided Paine's Celery
Compound. This famed medicine has
specific powers for correcting the dis
orders Of the female organism Il
maintains health, gives strength, vi
vscity and good looks and imparts TO
the body the elasticity Of girlhood.
No other medicine can so quickly
Danish and permanently cure painful
and obdurate feminine ills. Mrs. L.
s. Long OF Flint, Mich, says:
For twenty five years have been
q great sufferer from insomnia, never
obtaining more than four nights
sleep in q week. For sixteen years
life has been a burden to me be-
cause Of prolapsus uteri, whose tor.
lures no words oah describe, and
from which no physician gave me
any hopes Of relief except by an opera
tion. I have also for years been
troubled with rheumatism to such an
extent IN my right shoulder Is to
nearly disable me.
Last February was induced to
try Paine's Celery Compound in hopes
that relief from insomnia and rheuma-
tism might be obtained. After using
three bottles Of the Compound the
rheumatism was better. could sleep
like child, and, strangest Of all, my
uterine trouble WAS cured"

AUTHORITY OF
HEALTH BOARDS

The decision of q Louisville judge in
a smallpox case from Bowling Green
is an important enc for the state Of
Kentucky and one that is apparently
based on law ss well as good, sound
reasoning. Il holds that the health
authorities may send any one to a pest
house when il is deemed expedient Il is
unfortunate to have smallpox, but it
would be still more unfortunate II q
victim were allowed to so expose him
or herself as to endanger other people.
II is admitted that many people would
shrink from going to pest house, or
having their friends and relatives go
there 1t has been decided, however,
by medical authorities, men il is pre-
sumed who know the causes, symp-
toms and effect Of such diseases, that
smallpox patients should be isolated.
For this reason pest houses have be-
come common all over the country,
and people with smallpox are sent
there, not as punishment for catch
ing the disease, or as a remedy for cur
ing it, but simply because by remov-
ing them 1t removes at least to a large
extent the danger Of contracting il to
those who live near them. A man Of
wealth OF fastidious propensities has
no more right to refuse to go himself
or allow . member Of his family to be
sent, to the pest house than poor,
humble lsborer. The only reason
either is required TO go is because ones
malndy is as much . menace to the
people in'his vicinity as the others,
and his removal Is simply a safeguard.
He is required TO make the sacrifice as
a protection TO his fellow man. The
medical authorities have decided that
smallpox should be isolated, and the
state law empowers the health author.
titles to isolate when they oonclpde IL
is necessary. 1t is good law, and may
save hundreds Of lives. There is prac-
tically no limit to the power Of health

derstands, or ought to understand by
this time, what it means. The vote
is simply to ind out how many of the
voters in Paducah are in favor Of the
COWS and other livestock being kept
up by their owners, and how many
are in favor of allowing them to run
loose. II a majority favor keeping up
the cows, the council Will pass the ne
oessary law. II not, it will allow the
city to remain q country town. There
is no desire, it should be fully under
stood, to deprive anyone of a COW.

only thing about it is that they will
have to keep them up, and it is fore
gone conclsion that the people Of Pa
dcah are in favor Of it and will so

for each g OF the fine. The defense

Champ Clark says in the New Age:
When Senator McLaunn called Sen.
ator Tillman a liar on the floor OF the
senate and was swattcd for 60 doing.
English writer's held up their hands in
holy horror and solemnly exclaimed: o
mores! o tempora! They threw many
gorgeous boquets to themselves on that
occasion. What will these pious souls
say now since Hon.J Dillon in the
house OF commons not only called the
Hon Joseph lingo Chamberlain a "Gar."
but "a id Iiar?' The chances arc
ten to n that Dillon was telling the
truth, but surely the Britishers are iu no
situation to make mouths at us now
Quite otherwise. Tillman resented
McLaurin's characterization then and
there, and lingo Joe remained mute
under billions insult. AL this raises u
question es to the correctness OF the
ruling Of tho Kentucky judge who held

Parties roaming the Como hills this
week found the skull OF the late Walter
Crowinshield, at a point near his cabin.
a couple OF miles northeast Of the old
town Of Como. The skull is fractured
which would indicate that the old
gentleman met his death by foul play.
The authorities are gong to investigate
the matter.
1t will be remembered that in the fore
part Of June, 1900, the body Of Mr..
Crowinshield was found near his cabin
in a very badly decomposed condition,
indicating that death hnd taken place
several weeks previous to the time Of
the discovery OF the body. The head
was missing at that time, and the bal.
ance OF the body cremnteG rs it was
impossible to make any other DISPOSE
ton OF it. Mr.. Crowinshield lead the
life OF a hermit, and was seen by no..
body for months Rt a time. At the time
Of the finding 81 the remains the theory
was advanced, and generally thought to
be correct. that he had beer thrown
from his horse anu had his neck broken.
The finding Of the fractured skull leads
many now Ia believe that the old man
was murdered, probably by m Indian,
and the body decBpitated and the head
concealed. II such was the case the
guilty party will hardly be apprehended
