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
hundreo-and one i'll effects it pro
duces. You can't have good
spirits and bad liver at the same
time. Your liver must be in fine
condition if you would feel buoy
ant, happy and hopeful, bright OF
eye, light of step, vigorous and sue
ccssful in your pursuits. You can
put your liver i'll fine condition by
using Green's August Flower-the
greatest of all medicines for the
liver and stomach and a certain
cure for dyspepsia or Indigestion.
1t has been a favorite household
remedy for over thirty-hve years.
August Flower will make your
liver healthy and active and thus
insure you a liberal supply OF
good spirits. Trial size, 2Sc;

today, pure, white light and plenty

Strikes UD. Not Down.

The cause of death by lightning is
the sudden absorption of the electric
current When thundercloud which
is highly charged with positive cleo
tricity hangs over any certain place,
the earth beneath it becomes abnor-
rnally charged with the negative cleo
trio current, and man, animal or
other object standing or lying directly
beneath also partakes of the last men
toned influence. If while the man,
animal, or other object is in this condi-
tion, discharge takes place from the
cloud above, the restoration of the
equilibrium will be sudden and violent,
or in language that we can all under
stand, the negative current from the
earth will rush up to join the positive
cloud current and in passing through
the object which separates the two cur
rents, if it be an animate thing, will do
so with such force as to almost invari-
ably produce instant death. According
to the above, which seems a tenable
hypothesis, to say the least person is
really struck" by the ground current,
and not by the forked fury from above.

her so kindly that she became attached

the middle Of last summer, when her
husband one day told her that he had a

DEATHS DOIN0S.
HOUSLER.

Mrs. Efie, wife of Cameron Housler,
died Friday, March IL, at her home in
Rich Valley, aged SO years. Death re-
suited from paralysis, effecting her en-
tire one side, and of late rendering her
quite helpless and entailing great suf-
fering upon her which however was
borne with much fortitude and
patience. She is survived by a hus-
band and four children, the youngest
being an infant but two weeks old and
the eldest young man of 10 years.
Deceased was held in high esteem by
the entire community in which she
lived. Uncaring of self she lived for
others and leaves the legacy of life,
beautiful in deeds of benevolence and
kindness to her family and friends.
Largely attended funeral services were
held in the Rich Valley church last
Sunday afternoon by the Rev. o. s..
Metzler of the First Methodist Epis-
copal church of town, assisted by the

PERPETUAL MOTION.
Gas or no Gas the Little Machine Contin-

The question of gas consumption is
the burning question of the hour. Do
gas meters run fast when pressure is
low has been widely discussed. A citi-
zen of Whitesville claims to have kept
close tally during Is days and publish
es his findings in the Whitesville News.
1t is interesting enough to reproduce:
To the Editor of the Whitesville News:
Sir:-During the gas famine our vii
iage has been subjected to for much of
the time during the past three months
it has been frequently remarked by
consumers that air was being forced
through the supply pipes instead of gas.
This is probably a mistaken idea, but
the fact remains that the meters con-
tinue to register at nearly the same
rate per day, whether the supply is
ample for all household purposes or is
not enough to properly light and heat
one room. Having been compelled to
close parlor and dining room, use wood

results, beginning Wednesday morn

Mr., rIetcaIf In Florida.

Mr.. N. N. Metcalf and wife, of Aus
tin, are visiting in Florida and Mr.. M,
sends an interesting letter to the
Austin Autograph, describing his trip,
part of which will interest the PRESS
readers. We quote:
"Mrs. Metcalf and myself left for
Emporia, where Mr.. J. w. Frank and
several others from Emporium, Pa,
live. We found Mr.. Franks people

lives here during the winter, also DIR.
DeLong of Emporium, Pa. called
on them and it seemed like meeting
old friends, although had but slight
acquaintance with them in Pennsylva-
mia. Mr.. Felt has one of the finest
orange groves in Florida, and he is
very proud of it, He has packed and
shipped 1000 boxes. and expects to ship
1900 more, That part of Florida is
very low land, WITH a large number of
smal1Alakes from one-half to three
acres in size. The land is white sand
everywhere. 1t is all right for a man
that has money enough to live any
where, but it is no place for a laboring
man."

Our Naval Strength,

The comparative naval strength of
first class powers is a subject of interest
just now. The Philadelphia Inquirer,
answering a query relative thereto
gives the following summary: By 1906
England will have 81 battleships, So of
them over 10000 tons, with an aggre-
gate displacement of 765, $50 tons, and
10 large cruisers, 30 protected, with an
aggregate displacement of 648, ,440 ton.
This would make the aggregate tonnage
of the battleships and cruisers COM
prised in the British navy 1,414, 100
tons. Now, look at the navy of the
United States. Assuming that the pro-
gram which has been adopted will be
fully carried out, this country by the
year 1906 will have 20 battleships, 10 of
them over 10000 tons, which will ag-
gregate 24S, 294 tons, and 16 cruisers, 13
protected, aggregating 176,155 tons.
The total tonnage of the United States
navy will then be 424 ,449, or consider.
ably less than one-third the tonnage of
the navy of Great Britain France
with 80 battleships and 2S cruisers, and
Russia with 25 battleships and 1s
cruisers, will be ahead of us, while
Germany, with 16 battleships and II
cruisers, will not be far behind. 1t must
be remembered, however, that the
German naval program will not have
been carried out as soon as 1906. When
it shall have been executed, Germany
at the present rate of progress will
lead us. At this time that country and
the United States as respects their
naval strength stand close together,
each being materially behind Great
Britain, Russia and France.

At. 8 O'Clock in the afternoon of
last Thursday, 18th, gas began to come
in normal supply and has since been
ample, lamps and wood being no
longer needed. To get the frost out of
the house gas was burned in the chamb.
ers and the cellar for part of two days,
18th and 18th, which amounts appear
in the table.
To summarize; from the 10th to the
18th, inclusive, the meter registered 4, ..
800 feet, an average of 500 feet per "a
hours. Since the Goth, using gas freely
and entirely, the meter has registered
1900 feet, giving daily consumption
of 525 feet as against a previous regis
tration of5OO feet per day and no gas!
Perhaps some of our readers may
have some theory of evolution to ex-
plain this condition of gas affairs. If
so, may we hope to be enlightened on
on this burning question.
