LOUISVILLE 7. P. A.
Will Establish a Club House
There Shortly.
Il Will be Kept up by the Dfummers
Who Number Several Hundred.

The Louisville drummers have on
foot a plan to establish a club house
in the Metropolis for the benefit of
the members Of the local post T. p.
A., and have every promise Of success.
The plan as so far conceived, is to
nave q nicely furnished suite Of club
rooms in the business center, probably
IN one OF the Office buildings. Ar.
rangements will be made with cafe
or restaurant by which the members
of the T. p A. can get meals. The
rooms are to be equipped with bill
lizard and pool table, library Of cur
rent literature, books, magazines and
newspapers.
In Louisville there are several thous
and travelling men, and of this number
over 400 belong to the post OF the
Travellers Protective Association. The
membership Is being pushed and a
prize of a solid gold ring, with the T.
4. A. monogram, is tn be given to
those who enroll five new members.
A fund has already been raised for
the new club. One hundred men have
been asked 10 subscribe s5 apiece.
Something this sort in Paducah
would doubt prove q boon to the
knight of the grip when he is in town
Paducah is greatly in need of a social
club OF this description.

UNION OR CHURCH,
REV. DR.. =. A. BAART PUTS
THE QUESTION TO HIS CON.
IRRIGATION.

Marshall, Mich, Sept. 2-The Rev.
DR.. p. A. Baart, rector Of st. Mary's
church of this city Sunday in q SER
mon on education, said that no Catho.
lie could consistently take or keep the
oath of some of labor unions and he
mentioned particularly the Typo
graphical union, part of whose oath
be quoted as follows;
Il hereby solemnly and sincerely
swear that my fidelity to the Typo
graphical union and my duty to the
members thereof shall in no sense be
interefered with by any allegiance
that may now or hereafter owe to
any other organization, social. politi-
cal or religious"
Father Bart said this oath places
the union before the church and be-
fore the state and distinctly impeached
the loyalty and Catholicity of those
who take such an oath. Possibly, the
leaders may not have realized the IN II
force of the words they used in their
oath, he said, but whether they did or
not every patriotic citizen and every
sincere, consistent Catholic should
demand that such an oath be modified
and that the ohipctionable clapse be
cut out.

GERMAN SYRUP.

We want to impress on our readers
that Boschee's German Syrup is posi-
lively the only preparation on the
market today that does relieve and
cure consumption. 1t contains the
specifics, such as pure tar, extracts Of
gums, etc. which have been SO highly
endorsed for the cure of coughs, colds
and consumption by the great medical
congresses. The consumptive, whether
his disease is in the throat or lungs,
must have rest at night, and be free
from the spasm of dry and rskine
cough in the morning. The diseased
parts want rest, healing and soothing
treatment, and the patient needs fresh
air, good food, etc. German Syrup
will give free and easy expectoration
in the morning with speedy and per-
manent relief. Small bottles, %
cents; regular size, containing nearly
four times as much, 20 cents. At all
druggists.

ABLE DECISION
HIGH COURT AT LAST CON-
CLUDES MOOTED CONTEN-
TON.

The United States general board Of
appraisers, after several years consid.
Grafton of the subject, during which
time the United Safes courts have also
taken hand in the question, has de-
cided that horse hair is not wool. The
decision grew out Of q case in which
the collector of customs at one Of the
ports insisted that an importer should
pay duty on woven horse hair strung
with beads and trinkets under . sec
tion Of the tariff act defining wool as
the hair from sheep, goats, csmels,
alpacas and other animals.
The importer protested against pay.
ment and appealed to the board of ap-
praisers. Here again he was adjudged
in the wrong and as a last resort APP
pesled to the federal court The court
held that in naming other animals the
section was intended merely to cover
all animals with woolly hair though
possibly in enumerating the list some
one animal had been omitted.
In accordance with the orders Of the
court the importer cannot be charged
duty under that section, but the treas
ury officials have found another Sec
ton of the regulations which they be.
lieve will cover the case and the i'm
porter will not secure free entry OF
his wares

CONTINUOUS ADVERTISING.
JUST AS IMPORTANT AS KEEP
ING THE STORE OPEN.

There are two ways of looking at
advertising, both of them right. Ad-
retising should be done during the
dull time for the purpose of stirring
mp trade at.that time and also for the
sake OF the benefit which will come
from being continually before the pub
lilo eye.
A man should just as quickly think
of stopping his advertisements in the
summer or in the dull time after the
holidays as he sho Md think Of closing
mp his store several months in the
year and keeping it open only when
trade would keep him busy.
1t does not take people very long to
forget things, and II . store were
closed up four months or the advertis-
ing stopped four months a great many
people would have forgotten that the
business was in existence. The other
view OF advertising is that 1t ought
to be pushed during the busy time,
when the people are ready to buy.
Advertising cannot pc expected to
sell goods wheE people don't want
them, and il will naturally be most
effective when it gives publicity to
some desirable article at Just the
right time. To be sure, advertising
will sell anything at any time IL the
price be made low enough and the al
vertisement sufficiently attractive.
Some lines of goods can be forced, and
some cannot be forced, but even those
which cannot be forced should not be
allowed to drop out Of sight.
Keep mp your advertising during the
summer. and you will not only profit
by it in the fall, but your summer
sales will also show a fine increase.

WAS nothing to do but turn il over to
the rousters of the boat. They soon
drained IL, each rouster in turn put
ting his mouth TO the hung hole while
others tipped the keg so the beverage
would flow out. IL was entirely out

to work as long as any of the beer was
left. and the mate allowed them to
get all they wanted.

DEvOURED BY WORMS.

Children often cry, not from pain,
but from hunger, although fed abund.
antly. The entire trouble arises from
inanition, their food is not assimilat-
ed, but devoured by We rms. A few
doses of Whites Cream Vermifuge
will cause them to cease crying ana
begin to thrive at once, very much to
the surprise and JOY Of the mother.
