Like Finding Money.

w. 5. Lloyd, the porular drug
gist, is making an offer that is lust
like finding money for he is selling
a regular 80 cent bottle of DR..
Towards celebrated specific for
the cure of constipation and dys-
pepsia at half-prlce. In addition
to the large discount he agrees to
return the money to any purchaser
whom the specific does not cure.
1t is quite unusual to be able to
buy fifty cent pieces for a quarter,
bit that is what til offer really
means. for. it is only recently,
through the solicitation of Drug
gist w. :. Lloyd that this medi-
cine could be bought for less than
fifty cents. He urged the propri-
etors to allow him to sell 1t at this
reduced price for a little while,
agreeing to sell a certain amount.
The result has justified his good
ju lgment, for the sale has been
something remarkable.
Anyone who suffers with head
ache, dyspepsia, dizziness. sour
stomach, specks before the eyes,
or any liver trouble, should take
advantage of this opportuni V, for
DR.. Towards specific will cure all
these troubles. But if by chance
it should not, w. 5. Lloyd will re-
turn your money. 45-4S

Hundreds OF Lives Imperiled.

Hundreds of lives were imperiled
Wednesday when Floyd.E. Weber. en-
gineer of fast west-bound Lake
Shore passenger train, was stricken
unconscious at his throttle and the
train sped almost into Cleveland with
out a guiding hand. The engineer was
overcome by the heat.
AS the engine rocked into the Cleve-
land yards over the switch points, the
motion threw the engine driver from
his seat to the floor of the cab.
Then the fireman learned what had
happened. He jumped to the en-
gineer's seat, leaving his companion
helpless on the foot-hoards while the
speed Of the train was brought down
within the yards limits.
Webber's condition was found to be
critical. How long the engineer had
been unconscious at the throttle is not
known.

Little Word May Upset Work To
Amend Voters Qualification.

Secretary of State McChesney yes
terday. in accordance with the law,
advertised officially the fact
that at the November, 1907. election
there is to be submitted to the voters
of the State of Kentucky the question
of so amending Section l45 Of the Con-
stitution of the State as to provide
that a qualification for legal voter
in all elections shall be that at least
sixty days before the election at which
he offers to vote he has paid in full all
State, county, municipal and school
taxes due by him for the year prev
iOus.
The submission Of this question to
the voters of Kentucky was pro
posed and adopted at the last regular
session of the General Assembly. An
impression was gotten out that law
had been passed adding this qualifica-
ton to the other qualification of a Ken
lucky voter. but the Legislature could
only adopt a proposition TO submit such
matter to the whole people of the
State.
In making up the official advertise
ment Secretary McChesney noticed
that, in enrolling the measure, after
passage, for the signature of the Off
Gals of the Assembly and the Cover
nor, the enrolling clerk used the word
"Or' where the word land" is used
in the Constitution, making paragraph
l Of section 145 read that the voter
must reside in the State one year, the
county six months 'Or" the precinct
silky days. The adoption Of the amend
ment to the section as proposed would
have the effect of glazing voter the
privilege of voting after residing sixty
days in precinct and nullify the pro-
vision that ne must have been a resi-
dent of the State for year and OF the
county SIX months.

figure. |. F. Tabb and the Climax

Nearly Stung To Death.

The little four-year-old son of Alfred
Boyd. formerly of Louisville, but now
of Glasgow, was stung nearly to death
by a swarm Of bees at his home late
Wednesday evening and is now in q
serious condition. The child had been
playing around the yard all the after
noon. He was running across the yard
and when near the hive struck his foot
and landed on the hive, arousing the
bees.
The mother heard the screams of
the child and on going out was horrfi-
ed to see the boy almost covered with
bees. After many efforts the mother
succeeded in rescuing the child, but
was stung several times. Physicians
were called and an opiate given the
child before any relief could be obtain
ed. The child is thought to have been
stung over hundred times over the
face and head.
