About six months ago I quit tea

to lie for it proves that coffee was the
cause OF all my trouble although new

When my friends ask me how

at all only that | get hungry and eat
everything | want and lots of it and it

Sudden Awakening Harmful.

To be suddenly awakened from
sound sleep sends great rush of
blood to the heart, thus overtaxinC
and straining it. People whose bust
ness necessitates their being awak-
ened early have long suspected the
practice of being an evil one and have
tried to rid themselves of it. But here
tofore they have had no better reason
for wishing to continue to lie in bed
than that they found it inconvenient
or unpleasant to rise early. Evidently
they adve right on their side. 1t is
bad for the heart.

The ORANGE Tree.

The orange tree is regarded as a
price among trees and the emblem Of
genius. A popularity of this tree is
that it bears fruit and flower at the
same time; its leaves are evergreen
and as it grows older it grows in
beauty and fruitfulness, it's blossom
filing the air with its fragrance. 1t
is indeed a fit emblem of marriage
promise and hopes. The orange tree
is considered typical of love, because.
though its fruit is golden and it's flavor
and scent delicious. it's rind is bitter.
And as every one knows who has eX-
perienced it Cupid's dart causes pain.
The orange tree is emblematic OF graft
tude as we'll as of genius and love.

paner GLOVES and stockinus.

Paper gloves and stockings are now
being manufactured In Europe. The
stockings have been carefully ex
amined by experts, and they are loud
in their praise of them. Let no onJ
assume, they say. that these stockings
because they are made of paper, will
only last few days, for they will last
almost as long as ordinary stockings
The reason is because the paper oil
which they are made was. during the
process of manufacture. rendered into
a substance closely resembling wool
and was then woven and treated as
ordinary wool.

nrhe Sunrise Never Failed Us Yet,

Irpon the sadness of the sea
The sunset broods regretfully,
From the far lonely spaces slow
Withdrawn the wistful after glow.
So out of life the splendor dies.
So darken all the happy skies.
So gathers twilight, cold ana stern,
But overhead the planets burn.
And UP tho East another day,
shall chase the bitter dawn away,
What though our eyes with tears be wet
The sunrise never failed us yet.
Tho blush of dawn may yet restore
our light and hone and Joy once more
Sad soul take comfort nor forget
That sunrise never failed us yet.

Is to be discussed.
The project Of damming the Ohio at
some point near Henderson, was pro-
vided for by a special act passed June
10. 1902. 1t woud make a hsrbor
both at Henderson and Evansville by
keeping the stage of water high enough
for the trade packets plying the Ohio

The proposed dam would provide an

river traffic open ON Green river
throughout the year. 1t would pro-
vide for six foot stage OF water in

Talk About High
Water.
OHIO IS SOLIDLY GORGED

Dispatches sent out from Nashville
yesterday state that IN independent
steam boat line is to be established in
the Cumberland river to compete with
the Ryman line Of boats, but such
talk has been common for some time.

will be run in connection with the
Tennessee Central railroad. The eth.
er one nays:
Nashville, Tenn, Jan. "a di-
rect steamboat service between st.
Louis and Nashville. with connections
with an up river service, is now on
foot and there is every indication that
the plan will be carried out. The
Belle of Calhoun. one of the largest
sternwheelers ON the Mississippi, is
ready to enter the Cumberland ser
vice, and the India Givens, . smaller
boat, is being prepared for duty on
the upper Cumberland.
Captain 4. Lamont. veteran
steam boa man, has been in Nashville
and held consultations with many Of
tho leading shippers of the city. He
represents Miller & Sebastian Of st.
Louis, owners Of the Belle Of Calhoun
and the India Owens. They are prin
cipal stockholders in the Mississippi
Valley Elevator company and repre-
sent q capital Of about $4,000, 900.

THANKS ARE DUE

ufactures alone for prosperity, as
Great Britain does. 1t is more near
ly self -sufiicing than any other coun-
try under the sun. When the resources
Of its tropical possessions are fully de-
veloped II will be in q still better po-
sition to dictate commercial terms to
nations which must have some OF ITS
surplus products,
one would like to know about how
much IL cost to raise the farm pro-
ducts OF this year The manufacturer
can figure out his profits closely. He
has to, so he may know where he
stands. The average farmer does not
initiate the manufacturer in this res
pect, or il he does his balance sheet 10

from the prosperity prevailing in the
agricultural districts Of the west,
where the farmers are depositiug in
local banks more money than the
banks can find employment for at
home, the agricultural producers have
been richly repaid for their labor and
expenditures in 1908. They have
done extremely well for themselves

A dispatch from Nashville yesterday
states that officers Of the Ryman steam
boat line were In Padpcah to make q
fght against the Kentucky law rela-
tive to taxing boats. None Of the off,
GERS could be found today. however,
and officers on the Buttorff stated that
IL any of them were here or coming
they had heard nothing about u.
There seems to be . misunderstanding
about what the Kentucky court OF sp-
peals held in the steamboat tax mat
ter. 1t simply held that il boats are
run out OF Paducah and have the name
Of Paducah painted on them as their
home port, they are to be taxed in
Kentucky. II the owners pax taxes
on these same boats in any other state
they simply allow themselves to be
robbed. II they don't want to pay
taxes on them in Kentucy they have
only to register the boats elsewhere
and paint the name OF some other
place rs the home port. At least this
is the way the attorneys say the law
was construed.
