Two Men Drowned IN White
County.

A very sad drowning occurred
at Franks Ferry, near Sparta, on
the 4th, Will and Tom Terry
losing their lives, and it was
only after considerable work
that another brother, Charley,
was resuscitated. They, with
others, were seining. The river
was muddy and they got in deep
water. Neither Tom nor Will
could swim and were drowned.
Charley got out and went back
to save one of the others, and it
was only after some difficulty
that he was saved.
One of the bodies was recov-
cred before it was cold and the
other in less than two hours.
Both Will and Tom were young
men with families, sons of John
Terry, a well-known and proml'
nent citizen.

Good Spirits.

Good spirits don't all come
from Kentucky. Their main
source is the liver and all the
fine spirits ever made in the
Blue Grass State could not
remedy a bad liver or the hun
dred-and-one i'll effects it pro-
duces. You can't have good
spirits and a bad liver all at the
same time. Your liver must be in
fine condition if you would feel
buoyant, happy and hopeful,
bright of eye, light of step, vigo-
rous and successful i'll your pur-
suits. You can put your liver
in fine condition by using Green's
August Flower-the greatest OF
all medicines for the liver and
stomach and a certain cure fol
dyspepsia or indigestion. 1t has
been a favorite household remedy
for over thirty-fve years
August Flower will make YOU

safety to oil lamps is being applied to practical uses in this country The de- vice consists of 8 circular metal box, the size varying according to the can dle-poWer required. Tn the box is a deposit of salt, over which is a layer of cotton waste specially prepared. Running through the cotton packing is an asbestos wick, woven by hand, whichprojects through an aperture, and which is practically indestructible and requires only occasional attention. By immersing the box in petroleum or par affin the cotton waste absorbs the re- quisite quantity of oil in a few minutes through small lateral interstices. That accomplished and the metal being dried externally, the application of a light to the asbestos wick produces a bright, steady white light, the candle-power being in proportion to the size of the box, the consumption of oil being less and, accordingly, the cost being corres- pondingly cheaper than if the light were obtained from an ordinary lamp. Moreover, it is claimed, absolute safe- ty is assured. The asbestine lamp may be inverted, may exhause itself, may be thrown down or whirled about, but there is no danger it is averred, as there is no free oil or oil gas that can be ignited, and consequently there can be no fire or explosion. The patent is said to be applicable to every species of lamp from the modest night light necessary in the nursery, through the entire gamut of domestic Illumination, to the drawing lamp. In the in- dustrial world it would be utilized in every direction, especially where a bright, steady light is essential, such as engine headlights and lights on ships. The Great Northern and several Scot tish and Irish railroads are engaged in testing the capabilities of the new process with view to it's adoption in railway work. Every description of lamp-the bicycle lamp, the motor lamp, the carriage lamp, lamps for do- nestic purposes, lamps in mines-can it is declared, be fitted with the asbes- tine patent, and oil of any flash point can be used with perfect safety and with the additional advantage of con- siderable economy. The problem of the safety lamp would appear to have been solved.-From United States Consul Mahin, Nottingham.

FINEST HOSPITAL FOR CHOL-
 npEN

So probably the finest hospital for children in the world, the babies ward of the New York postgraduate hos pital, is an interesting place from more than one point of view; and it is still more significant of human charity that thosewho receive the direct benefit of this. which is considered.the most cost ly and best equipped institution on earth for healing the Ills of children, are the very poorest children of New York city. The babies ward of the Postgraduate hospital is free. The lit- tie ones who are cared for and healed there are from the porest quarters of the city, and the ward is supported by some of New York's most wealthy women.
 Some of the methods in this hospital are absolutely unique. In the babies division are two departments, the sur gical ward and the medical ward In
