or This Plan.
The statement cabled TO the United
States from London that Japan had
ordered four battlcships in England,
is incorrect. 1t is probable, unless
circumstances dictate otherwise, that
Japan in future will construct all her
vessels at home.
She has equipped extensive yards,
shops and gun and armOr foun dries,
and there is 4 strong and growing
sentiment in the navy and among the
psople generally in favor of home
construction exclusively. The yards
are already engaged in an extensive
building program, which includes two
large armCT5d vessels.

The japanese have opened a
tremendous fire with field and siege
guns against Poutiloff hill Columns
of white smoke envelop the hill on
two sides. The bombardment of the
right flank continues along the whole
front of about 100 miles. The east

repulsed the Japanese attack. The
Japanese have also been driven in
from Tunsilai pass and from the
vicinity of Gauto pass.

Pass String gent Measures.
The Kansas Senate unanimously
passed Senator Nofzinger's bill to pre-
vent the operation of trusts within
Kansas. The measure, patterned
after the Texas law, provided 100000
fine for each attempt to strife compe

made for the expulsion from Kansas
of any firm presistently violating the
law
The Nebraska House passed an
antitrust bill by vote Of - to 10.
The bill has still to be considered by
the Senate. The bill eXempts do

resentative Junkins, said it is aimed
specifically at the beef trust and the

through complete reports to the At

1T WAS A MERRY Multitude
That Swarmed The Hills and HOIIOWS
About Crltienden Springs From
Morn TIL Late at Night.
MANY PASS-IIHEs And ADJUSTMENTS

The Fourth at the Crittenden Springs
was royal one. and a thousand or
more guests spent the national holiday
and the following evening on the
grounds, witnessing or participating in
some sort Of amusement.
Proprietor Of the hotel, Jno. W.
Wilson, that typical Kentucky host,
left nothing undone that he could do
toward making the day pleasant one.
Al s2on and supper he presided over
the dinitZ room and served in an ideal
manner isse than 800 guests. The
tables were rel,lete with every palat-
able product FROM grocery. farm and
garden, particularly were the vege-
tables and barbecud meats seasoned
and prepared to sun the taste. and
generous John wanted every guest TO
have his moneys worth.
As soon as the noon hour bad passed
the amusements began TAere were
the ball games in the valley beyond the
spring, and across the Hill number Of
persons were participating M shoot
ing, fireing at a target at $50 foot
range. while Sam Gugenheim and Syl
van Price shot fireerackers in front Of
the hotel with the children.
The hotel clerks. the porters. and
the statesmen in the stands on the
grounds were busy all day and through
out the evening, and the balls on the
pool tables never ceased to roll, almost
keeping time TO the music Of the
orchestra in the dining room where
guests were feasting. or with the big
piano and accompanying music in the
ball room where Robert Cook led round
and round in the merry rollieking reel.
Only once did the mcrriment cease
: for a short season and that was in the
evening. just before the ball opened,
and after Messrs. Sayre. Stewart,
! Morris and Num- had concluded the
fireworks amid the cheering and clap
ping Of hands by the spectators, hun

manufactured from spirits by the use

ginger is reinforced with capsicum and
the greater part of our ground spices

''One of the most baleful manifesto
tions of the nefarious operations of the
adulterator is i'm connection with drugs
and medicines. Even the danger to u
man health and life does not act to
deter them, and / have heard the state
ment by leading physicians hat the
failure Of certain drugs to act as their
properties would indicate is attribut-
able to a~dulteration.
There is now sufficient laws upon
the statute books OF every state in the
union which, if enforced, would bring
an end to every adulteration. Every
city has food laws of more or less
rigor. The trouble is that these laws
are not enforced, They are dead laws.
Boards of health are vested with suffi-
Gent authority to put a stop to these
evils. yet they continue to grow.
What is needed is the reation of
sufficient sentiment by arousing the
public TO the grave dangers to which
they are being subjected by the in
iquitous practices. so that in the end
pressure may be brought to bear on the
authorities such as will lead to the
appropriation OF funds to allow of the
enforcing of the law. There is no bet

in enlisting the aid of the public press,

Foods Versus Drugs.

The garden is a great medicine chest.
Be your w doctor and look TO your
own slight ailments.
If you are wakeful, eat lettuce.
For affections of the skin and for
yellow skin eat onions. Onions are also
good for colds. coughs, scrofula.
For a torpid liver eat freely of as
paragus.
If the bowels are diseased, try black
berries.
For malaria and general breakdown
eat cranberries.
If nervous and irritable. eat plenty OF
celery.
For constipation, eat fruits, ripe and
healthy fruits. Fresh fruits are good:
so are figs n dates. Raisins are
beneficial.
When the body is in good condition
keep it in good condition by denying
the appetite what has once injured the
body. One a do everything for him-
self by eating the right thing and not
toe much of 1t. and by leaving alone
the wrong thing, and all of it. He can
do more than doctors can do for him
when he is finally flat on his. back in
