LIVERMORE NO SALOONS.
Third Time in Six Years That
the Whiskey Men Have
Made the Fight.

Livermore decided against open
saloons last Saturday by the largest
majority ever given in any election
ever held there. The election was
held as stated for the purpose of
testing whether Livermore should
have saloons, or not, and the drys
won by majority of eighty-two.
The question was holly contested,
and until the last few days, it was
very doubtful which side would
win.
This is the third time in the last
six years, that the whiskey men have
tried to get saloons there, but it is
not probable that they will try again
soon, as the temperance element has
gained such a victory.
An attempt will be made soon to
have whiskey kept out of the drug
stores and thus make Livermore a
peaceable and dry town.

BUNCH OF RATTLESNAKES
Discovered Beneath Hearth in a
Farm House and Were Killed
With Hot Water.

Munfordsville, KY, Feb. ia
nest of forty-two rattlesnakes was
found by Isaac Welborn, farmer
in the Roundstone county on Mon
day morning. For months the fami-
ly hasbeen annoyed by a peculiar
sound, apparently emanating from
the fireplace. Mrs Welborn is of a
nervous temperament and was much
disturbed by the suggestions of the
neighbors that the house was haunt
ed. Saturday evening Mr.. Welbon
built up hugh fire, as the night bit
ter cold. Towards morning the
sound became so alarmingly per-
sistent that Mrs. Welborn became
unable to endure the suspense and
aroused her husband. Mr.. Welborn
could not quiet his wife's fears and
as soon as the fire died down he arose
and prepreceded the tear up the
hearth, determined to find the cause
of the mysterious sounds and to end
them for once and all. On removing
one of the larger stones he saw
hollow underneath it filled with
a mass of rattlesnakes. He then i'm
mediately replaced the stone. and as
soon as his wife could heat kettle
of water he cautiously raised the
cover of the den and poured the
boiling water upon the reptiles. Mr.
Welburn was then able to lift them
out one by one with a pair of tongs.
The snakes varied in size from six
inches to nearly five feet.

The people generally are very much
misinformed as to the nature OF catarrh.
Catarrh is usually believed to be con-
fined to the head, nose and throat. Lat
terly we sometimes hear Of catarrh of
the stomach and catarrh OF the bladder.
Seldom, IL ever, do we hear of catarrh Of
any other organs.
1t is not because these organs are not
subject to catsrrh, nor that catarrh of
these organs is not very common dis
ease, but simply because 1t is not gencr-
ally known that affections Of these
organs may be due 10 catarrh.

PRESENT FOR BARNETT.
Deputies in Customs Office Show
Admiration for Retir-
ing Chief.

Louisville, n.y., Feb. 12.-After
turning over the records of his Of
fee, which he has occupied for the
past eight years, Col. c. M. Barnett
presented Judge w. G. bearing, the
new Collector of Customs, with his
commission, and the latter was
sworn into Office by Judge Walter
Evans, of the Federal Court, Judge
Evans heartily wished the new COL
lector successful administration.
One of the happiest features con-
nected with the event was the pre-
sentation of a magnificent and cost
ly Knight Templar charm, set with
diamonds and rubies, to Col. Barnett
by the force over which he presided
during his administration. The pre-
sentation speech was made by Jack
Richardson, Appraiser, who dwelt
upon the success and growth of the
office, and its increase from one in
which the annual receipts are over
$500, 900.
Col. Barnett, in expressing his APP
probation of the gift, made refer
ence to the faithful service he had
received and spoke in a way that
proved effective and touching of the
work they had done together. In
receiving his commission from Col.
Barnett, Judge bearing said that he
would emulate the example of his
predecessor, and would try-to prove
worthy of the confidence of both
business men and officials.
Col. Barnett will remain in the
city for several days winding up his

toms would disappear if the cause of the
disease was removed.
, In other words, DIR. Hartman ap-
piled the common sense of the practical
farmer to medicine, and after much
experimentation Peruna was COM
pounded.
The sensible farmer does not think OF
cutting Off the tops of weeds to kill
them. He pulls them up by the roots.
Er. Hartman Interested in Farming.
Notwithstanding DR.. Hartman's busy
professional career, he still continues to
be interested in farming. He is the
owner and manager of one Of the largest
farms in the State of Ohio, with several
thousand acres of the best titled land in
the Middle West, and with hundreds of
the best blooded percheron horses ever
imported or raised in this country.
DR.. Hartman relies upon Peruna en-
tirely in case Of sickness in his own

THE PILGRIMS.

The Pilgrims lived in England The
king wanted them to worship God as
he did. But the Pilgrims did not like
their Sunday sports. The Pilgrims
said, Let us go where we can wor-
ship God as we wish. They went to
Holland. They stayed there thirteen
years, quiet and happy for while.
But when the children began to grow
up, they were not English children,
but talked Dutch. like the little ones
Of Holland. The Pilgrims thought
that would never do. They went back
to England and hired two vessels, the
Maydower and the Speedwell, to sail
for America. They were two months
on the ocean. The children wore very
uncomfortable and cold. At last the
Mayflower came in sight of land. They
landed at the Massachusetts bay. They
called it Plymouth Rock. The first
winter one-half of the Pilgrims died.
They found some Indian corn buried in
the ground. A good Indian named
Squanto taught them how to plant it.
in the fall they harvested a good crop.
In November Pilgrim said, Lets
have a Thanksgiving party" They in
vited Indians, they caught wild game,
etc. The party lasted four days. Ev-

HOW WE CAME TO HAVE THANKS.
GIVING.

After the Pilgrims came over the In
dian Squanto taught them how to
plant corn and other vegetables. They
soon learned how to plant their own
things. In the year of 1923 in the au-
tumn they gathered the largest crops
they had gathered.
After the harvest was gathered Gov
ernor Bradford sent out some men to
lget game to have a Thanksgiving feast.
On the appointed day they met to.

crops. They saw no longer danger of
famine.
At the festival they had pumpkin

winter and had some left over for
spring.

which they called plymouth Rock"
1t was too late to leave the ships
that night. The next day was Sunday
The Pilgrims thought it was wrong to
work on that day. The women stayed
all that long day in the cabin of the
Mayflower. The next day they set to
work cutting down trees. They built
seven log huts. They were not as nice
as the homes they had left in England

they went to Holland They stayed
there about ten years. They found
that the children we're growing up like

So they said, That will not do" So
they went across the ocean. 1t was a
