TRAPPIST MONKS
Preparing to Celebrate One
Hundredth Anniversary
of Founding.

Bardstown KY, March 30.-Interest
has been revived in the Trappist monas-
terry at Gethsemaue, in this county, on
account of the plans being made to cell
citrate the Tooth anniversary of the
communitys settlement in Nelson. The
life of Trappist is a hard one, and
for one hundred years they have lived
a life of silence and self.denial. They
own /, $50 acres, which they cultivate
The monastery is about a mile and
a.half from the railroad station, and
the community is not disturbed by any
affairs of the outside world. They own
their own stock of all kinds and have
recently erected, at a great cost, barn
for housing their stock. which is supe-
rior to anything of the kind in the
State and is an object of interest to all
who visit the abbey. They also have
their own mill, church, school and IL
brary. The monks are obliged to rise
at 2 o'clock a. IN. for mathis in the
church, which last till $780, After an
interval occupied in private devotion,
they go to their Office of prime, or the
first canonical hour, which is generally
followed by lecture At o'clock
they begin their trades indoors or out,
according to the weather. On Sundays
they arise at 80 a. m, and because of
the fact that they do not work in the
fields, OF elsewhere on that day, their
devotions are more elaborate than in
the week days.
Perpetual silence is enforced except
in cases of necessity. The order is
founded on the principles of perpetual
prayer and self .abnegation.
The minor practices are devised so as
to remind the monks at every turn. of
the shortness of life, aud the rigor of the
last Judgment. The bed of the monk
is but handful of straw on an iron
frame. This is to remind him that the
last fragment of earthly comfort is de-

The abbey at Gethsemane has long
been famous as a retreat for Catholic
priests, who go there voluntarily

penance. Laymen also go there for the

TEMPERATE
Is Hon. Ben Johnson. Who Is
a Candidate to Represent
This District.
LLR.c. in sprirpfield. XVII Sun. !


When Hon. Ben johnson. of Bards-

there will be at least one man in the
National Congress who is a total alb

charitable endeavors, but at that time
did not have space to dwell at length
upon this, one of his most excellent
qualities-his admiration of sobriety In
men of all walks of life. In all of his
life he has never tasted whiskey, beer,
wine, ale, or any other intoxicant, nor
has he ever smoked or chewed tobacco.
In every conservative manner he has
discouraged the use of these things,
which, admitted by all, are injurious to
health and are often the barriers be-
tween Young men and successful bus
mess careers. Certainly the people of
this district will be delighted that they
are to be represented in Congress by
such a man.
A resident of Bardstown once said to
me: Ben johnson can do more towards
keeping crowd sober than any man in
the world. | don't remember that he

ago that he is a conservative temper.
ance advocate; they respect his opinions,
and there are few who will not admit
that "he is right" because they know
it is seldom, if ever, that Mr.. johnson
takes a prejudicial view of any public
question.
Here is pretty little story that is
worth telling: A young fellow who
possessed numerous other good quail
ties was drunkard. Society had dis
carded him, even his own relatives had,
in a manner, cast him off. Indeed, it
seemed that destiuy had halted him mp
on the very verge of ruin. But Ben
johnson saw something" in the young
outcast, and, as is saying among Mr.
Johnson's friends: "B, n sobered him."
He then fitted mp a room for the boy
with bed, chairs, etc. Just a place he
might call home" To-day that man
is sober and industrious, and is a good
citizen.

WORTH INVESTIGATING.

The use of hand cream sep
arators is very rapidly grow
ing among farmers who milk
COWS for profit. Dairy men
prefer to purchase the cream
and be relieved of the work OF
separating, and it is much more
profitable for the farmer to do
his own separating, for he
saves the skim. milk on which
he can raise his calves, in addl-
ton to which he saves the haul
ing of his milk, which alone
amounts in many cases to the
monthly payments required to
buy a cream separator. The
best time to separate the cream
from the milk is while it is
fresh and warm. The cream
separates easier and greater
percentage is obtained, and the
skim milk is left sweet and
fresh to be fed to the calves.

DISEASE DEFINED BY DOOR
Sense Of Smell Relied Upon by Elk
perts to Determine Nature
of Ailments.

The acutene IS of the sense of smell
is far greater in many of the lower an.
imals, dogs, for example, than In man,
and they EN- ploy it in guiding them
to their food, in warning them Of ap
preaching danger and for other pur
poses, says the Spatula. The sphere
OF the susceptibility to various odors
Is more Uniform and extended in man
and the sense Of smell is capable OF
great cultivation. Like the other spe
cial senses, it may be cultivated by
attention and practice. Experts car
discrir mate qualities of wines, liquors
drugs, etc. Diseases have their char
acteristic odors.
Persons who have visited many diff
ferent asylums for the insane recog
nize the same familiar odor of the in
sane. 1t is not insane asylums alone
but prisons, jails, warehouses, armies
IL camp, churches, schools and nearly
every household, that have character

prisoners and the soldier are aggre-
gated in large groups or battalions
that their Characteristic odor is recog.
ntzed. Most diseases have their char
acteristic odors and by the exercise OF,
the sense Of smell they could be utilized
In different diagnosis.
For example, fever has a mousy odor,
rheumatism has copious sour-smell.
Ing acid sweat. A person afflicted
with pyaemia has sweet nauseating
breath. The rank, unbearable odor
OF pus from the middle ear tells the
tale Of the decay of osseous tissue. In
scurvy the odor is putrid, in chronic

fresh baked brown bread, in fever am
