Picture Post Card Screen.

= "A pretty use to put the picture postal
cards that accumulate so rapidly these
days, especially if one has friends
abroad, is to paste them in an artistic
arrangement on a screen, then cover
them with glass. 4 young fellow
amused himself by decorating a three
fold screen in this manner with dado
of stamps and postmarks. Such a pro
duction makes welcome addition to q
boys or girls bedroom, especially if the
owner has worked and fused over it
himself, and the possessor is likely to
be the envied of all his or her COM
rades. ~

1cine is indeed an ideal woman's medi-
cine, and by far the best / know to
restore lost health and strength. I
suffered misery for several years, being
troubled with menorrhagia. My back
.ached, l had bearing-down pains and
frequent headaches. 1 would often
wake from restful sleep, and in such
pain that I suffered for hours before /
could go to sleep again. I dreaded tho
long nights as much as the weary days.
! consulted two different physicians,
their medicine did not sem to cure me,
l tried your Vegetable Compound
on the recommendation of a friend,
from the East who was visiting me.
II am glad that 1 followed her ad.
vice, for every ache and pain is gone,
and not only this, but my general
health is much improved. I have .

"AUDIToR's AGENT" Frank Luz
cas-, whom State Auditor S. w.
Hager says is not the Auditors
Agent, has been filing Wholesale
suits against State banks at Earl
ington, Madisonville, Nebo, Pa
ducah, Bowling Green, Hender-
son and other points, to collect
taxes alleged to be due the State
on money deposited in these in
situations. Whatever the tech
nical, legal aspect of the case it
certainly would be great blow
to the banking and business in
terests of Kentucky to have such
double tax imposed. Auditor
Hager has addressed a letter to
Mr.. Lucas in which he says the
latter's actions are wholly un-
warranted, having been taken
without consulting the Auditor
that Mr.. Lucas, who was appoint
ed under Auditor Coulter, is not
the "Auditor's Agent" and that
Mr.. Hager will take immediate
steps to have all such suits dis.
missed. Auditor Hager is doing
the State good service in this
matter and is relieving the pres
ent administration of an unenvi.
able responsibility.

THERE seems to have been a
pretty general bungling of the
Job in the creation of the new
county of Beckham by the legls-
lature just adjourned. 1t is now
discovered that more than half OF
Lewis county, including the
county seat, was enormously IN
cluded In the survey now record
ed as the bounds of the new
county. Vanceburg, the county
seat of Lewis, is also included in
this survey which, if it stands,
will deprive Lewis county of any
local government and abolish
Vanceburg as the county seat.
Strangest of all, this remarkable
survey crosses the Ohio river and
runs some seven miles into the
State of Ohio and anneXes por-
ton of that State without its aid
or consent. The confusion in
Lewis county is great and the
matter will be taken into court
at once.

POLITICAL STATE NEWS.

Representative Sheppard, of Tex
as, was piling it upon the repub-
licans in an excellent speech which
he made the other day on the tariff
question, for claiming all the pros
perity under the sun, says the Johns
town Democrat.
"Why, Mr.. Speaker" said this
fervent young Texian, 1.-the next
thing 1 expect to see is some Repub-
lican rising in his place here and
proposing to amend the Old Testa-
ment. 1 expect some prophet of
prosperity will arise in his place and
move to strike the name of the Dietv
from the first line of the first chap
ter of the Book of Genesis, so that it
will read:
sin the beginning the Republican
party created the heavens and the
earth"
In an interview in Washington
Mr.. Bronston declares there is fac
tional war within the Democratic
party in Kentucky, and that Sena-
tor Blackburn is striving to wrest
the control of the party from Mr..
Beckham and his followers. That
there is need for a radical reform of
the Democratic party in Kentucky
is too plain for discussion, but be-
fore reformers follow Senator Black
burn they want to know more of his
plans.
Grating is a disease that will
either destroy the governments or
destroy the parties. War against
grating is patriotic duty. Let
each party free itself from its own
grafters. The trouble now is each
party prefers to project It's own ras-
calls while assailing those of the OPP
posite party.

1.-The conference of a number OF
leading Republican State leaders at
the residence of Richard p. Ernst,
in Covington, Saturday night did

for Danville.
"Mr. Ernest was seen last night at

Judge Elliott went ever to Star City
on Saturday afternoon in the interest
of Judge Wood and as report has It,,
was notified by the Davis men tc leave
town. Gov. Davis was advised that
Judge Elliott was there and immedi-
ately telephoned some of his hench-

could as his presence in the county
was exceedingly dangerous to the Da-
Wis interests. The Davis men address
ed a communication to the judge and
ordered him to leave Judge Elliott

mob where he could be found. He was
not molested, as the crowds were only
