USE NEW LAr1PS.
False Economy OF Using Old Electric
Lamps Demonstrated.

/ . a. / i Il Il 7
Russell Baker, the accommodating
and efficient electrician at the electric
light station gave US demonstration
Saturday evening of the false econ
omy Of using old lamps, or lamps
that have passed their allotted period
of usefulness.
Mr.. Baker has recently received an
instrument known as watt-meter,
which shows the rate at which electri-
city is being used. For instance, a
new l6-candle power lamp will con-
sumed SO watts per hour, so when Mr..
Baker connected up eight 16-candle
power lamps the indicator stood at
460. The illumination afforded by
the eight new lamps was dazzlingly
brilliant.
MIR, Baker then replaced the new
lamps with eight old lamps that he
picked up about town. AS compared
to the new lamps, their light was
dim, and the eight lamps did not af-
ord the same amount Of light that
three new ones did. In candle power
they we're only about one third as
good as new lamps, and according to
the light furnished, the watt-meter
should have stood at about 200, but
instead of that, it showed 400 watts
we're being used. Thus by using old
lights, the consumer would pay over
twics as much for a certain amount
of light as by using new lights.
Mr.. Baker then picked out the
very best of the old lamps, but they
afforded only about half as much
light as the new lamps, and con
sumed the same amount of current.
Mr.. Baker is very anxious that the
users of electric lights get the best
results possible, and as he has put
the system in frst-class shape, he sis
anxious that the patrons do their
part by not trying to use lamps
which have outlived their usefulness.

The attention of notaries public
is called to chapter 8 of the general
laws OF 1905, which reads in part as
follows: every notary public
taking an acknowle dgement of an
instrument, taking q deposition,
administering fan oath. or making a
a notarial protest, shall Immediately
following his signature to the jurat
or certificate Of acknowledgement,
indorse the date of the expiration of
his commission; such endorsement
may be legibly written, stamped or
printed upon the instrument, but
must be disconnected from the seal,
and shall be substantially in the
following from: Ny commission ex-
pires 10 !" This law be-
comes effective January 1, 1906.
The opinion seems to be prevalent
that instruments otherwise acknowl-
edged after Janusry 1, 1906 will not
be entitled to record until the ac-
acknowledgements has been projected.

Japanese Painting.

The japanese, with their natural.
unsophisticated view of life, have ever
sought In their art to mirror what q
great painter and critic has termed
'men's primordial predictions" Art
however, that seeks to embody pleas
\ures founded ON the unchanging prop
rtles r.. human nature must have a
tpast as well as future, must be able
TO look backward as well as forward.
Not ones life labor. but that of many
generations, Is required. No people
have better understood this than the
Japanese. They have also clearly per.
ceived that no art that is not true to
the changeless element In man can en-
'dure, while, on the other hand, any
subject, however trivial, can be made
eternally attractive II only treated in
accordance with aesthetic law.
Japanese painting delights us by its
delicate fancy, Its poetry, its freedom,
its spirit. but what gives these quail
ties special and enduring charm, what
makes the play of fancy never wearl-
some, the liberty never mere license,
Is that they find expression in and
through a framework of design so fine
ly conceived that In 1t we see reflected
as In mirror the fundamental princi.
Piles which govern all true art.-W. M.

WANT DOLLAR WHEAT.

1t is understood that the farmers of
the counties of Southern Indiana trib
utary to New Albany have been invit
ed to become members of a combine
composed of the entire country, the
purpose being to delay putting their
crops of wheat on the market until the
price of the cereal advances to 81 a
bushel
There must be some foundation for
the report from the fact that although
the market opened at 81 cents, fell a
few cents and since advanced, but
very little wheat is being offered for
sale. In the last two weeks many
thousands of bushels of wheat of t,e
quality have been thre shed in the
counties near New Albany, and but
very little of the grain has been deliv-
cred in that city either by rail, river
or wagons. Monday Courier Jour

Two Tale. of Macready.

1t is not always well to strut and
fret ones little hour upon the stage too
realistically. Macready, who threw
himself into his acting heart and soul,
used to tell funny stories about the ef-
feet of his easy, colloquial manner
upon the players collected for bis COM
pany in small provincial towns. Once
in the play Of 'william Tell" he turned
to one of these stupid rustics and put
the question, 90 you shootT so natu-
rally that the man was quite thrown
of his guard, and, to his horror, replied,
"a little, sir, but I've never had go
with one Of them crossbows." Another
time In "yirginius" he asked, do you
wait for me to lead Virginia In, or will
you do so?" only to be greeted unex-
pectedly by the actor who played Icil-
ius with, "Why, really, sir, 1 don't
care; just as you do 1t in London"

Prof. TayIOr's Training School.

To the anxious parents seeking the
proper school for their boz, we would
submit the Louisville Training School,
of Louisville, for their consideration
This school is conducted, under the
personal supervision OF Prot. H. K
Taylor, its principal apd propri etor.
The fact that Prof. Taylor is connect
ed with this institution Is the best
recommendation that can be given it..
At this school boy is taken in the
rough andtrained by Christian teach
ers and brought up under the influence
of highest moral standards, so tina
when he mas finished the boy has in
culcated within him the highest ideal
of manhood The rigid military dis
cipline boy receives at this school
makes him, in after life, man of
regular habits and firm mind. This
one feature of the school, while il is
not carried to the extreme, Is much
to De commended.
Regular study hours under the sup
ervlsion of u teacher are kept daily.
This is an advantage boy has at
this school over the school that ger
mjts its students to keep their own
study hours. Each boy is under the
personal care of Prof Taylor through
out the session, thus lnsuring year
of vigorous study. Graduate professors
are employed who also nave constant
care of each boy. Only seventy five
students are taken into the school each
year. Ages from twelve years up.
Application for entrance should be
made at once to Prof. H. K. Taylor,
Beechmont, KY, to insure sccommo-
dations for the ensuing year. Cata-
logue sent on request. -
