Sorrows of an Artist.

A first class journeyman tailor who
is both sensitive and ambitious must
have more than his share of sadness
and heartache. The completeness with
which he is ignored by those who are
made happy by his workmanship can
not fail to cause him mental agony
The bosses know him and appreciate
his work. and so do his fellow crafts
men, but that is ALL Beyond them he
is unknown, unthought Of. His work
goes out into the world to delight and
to be admired, but it brings to him
neither fame nor praise. He is no
more thought of or considered by those
who wear with pride a garment he
made than the sheep is from whose
back the wool was sheared that went
to its making-American Tailor and

The Word HCutler.s,

''Cutler," according to it's present use,
should mean man who makes things
that cut, but really it has no more to
do with "cut' than 'cutlass" and "cut-
let" have, which is just nothing at all.
"Cut" has some Teutonic origin, but
"cutler" comes through French from
the late Latin "cultellarius," which
meant either a soldier armed with a
knife or a knifemaker, and "cultellus,'
a little knife, was the diminutive of
"culter," which. among other things,
meant plowshare or coulter" "Cut.

Figs and Dates.

It is a good plan to wash figs and
dates before giving them to children,
or, for that matter, to any one. Their
sweetness attracts insects, and their
sickness makes them a perfect home
for dust and its undesirable germs.
Yet most people seem never to think
Of this at all. Washing will not i'm

makes them more agreeable to the

taste.

UP TO GOVERNOR BECKHAM.
Editor Gore, The Brilliant Anti-SaloOn
Fighter, Serves Notice on The
Governor.

Mr.. Rogers Gore. who but recently
conducted successfully the most brilliant
fight against the saloon in Washington
county, is not satisfied with the way the
lid has been raised in Louisville and in
his paper this week has the following
pertinent editorial:
The Democrats of Washington
county are watching Louisville with
much interest. Gov. Beckham put the
lid on, and the people applauded him.
But the lid came off! Gov. Beckham
says he will put it on again, and that's
what the people of this county are in
terested in. Every day the question is
asked by many of our countYmen:
"Will Beckham put the lid on in Louis
ville?" The Governor says he has the
authority, certainly he has the power.
The State MALTA is at his command
he is the Commander-In-Ch Chief. And
It's up to you, Gov. Beckham! If you
put the Louisville lid on in the next
week or two-if you put it on good and
tightly Washington county will give you
nice majority. If you do not put the
Louisville lid on the people will feel thai
you are insincere-that you have beer
making a grandstand play. They will
believe that you have "made deal, as
the Louisville Herald of yesterday
charges, with the whiskey element fol
Louisville's vote, and Washington
county will go 500 to 1000 majority
against you. -Elizabethtown News"
