It is all a pretty mess to which the
voters of Kentucky are asked to sit
down for an election day meal this
good year of 1907.
The people are asked to give their
suffrage to men who preach honor on
the one hand and on the other are
benehciaries of thieves and Sound
rels who practice dishonor. The PEG
pie are asked TO give their support to
men who, with pious faces and we'll
masked purposes. herald the gospel
OF temperance ana reform, while their
henchmen are out in the front OF the
battle violating almost every manner
of law, scriptural and temporal.
Meanwhile the campaign of the
people, who sincerely wish for genu-
inc and permant reform, goes merri- !
ly on. Augustus Il. Wilson and tho
other Republican candidates are hay-
ing no trouble in convincing the peo-
pie of Kentucky that the election of
the entire Republican ticket offers

not have happened in a less hospitable

THE FRIeATE PELICAN.
Il Is Small Bird With an Enormous
Stretch of Wing.

Il Is Small Bird With an Enormous
Stretch of Wing.
The frigate pelican, or man-of-war
bird, is usually found between the
tropics. Although when stripped of its
feathers it is hardly larger than a
pigeon, yet no man can touch at the
same time the tips of its extended
wings. The long wing bones are ex-
ceedingly light, and the whole ap-
paratus Of air cells is extremely de-
veloped, SO that its real weight is very
tri1ing. 1t flies at a great height
above the water and from that eleva-
ton pounces down on fish, especially
preferring the poor, prosecuted flying
fish for its prey.
Under the throat of the frigate peli.
can is large pouch of a deep red
color, which can be distended with air
at the pleasure Of the bird. The pouch
Is larger and Of more brilliant red In
the male than in his consort, and the
general plumage of the female Is not so
bright as that of the male.
Although its swiftness Of wing and
general activity enable it to snatch a
fish from the surface of the water or
to pounce upon the flying fish before it
can again seek the protection of its
native element, yet it too often uses
its powers in robbing other birds of
their lawful prey. 1t is enabled in
some mysterious way to find its way
home by night, even though it may be
400 or 500 miles from land. The length
Of the male bird is three feet and the
expanse of wing eight feet.

Used to Be Made.
They don't make it nowadays-not
mostly. But they used to make it
years ago, and how good it was! The
corn lot had to be cultivated, and it
was long way from the house, and it
was very hot up there on the hillside.
When they loaded the cultivator and
the hoes and spades on the stone boat
and hitched the two horses to that dry
ground vessel, they slowed away as
part of the cargo big stone jug. And
when the corn lot was reached the jug
was slowed away in a shady fence
corner under the butternut tree and
covered over with grass to keep it
cool. What was in the jug? Switched.
1t was made Of vinegar, molasses, gin
ger and water. The water was drawn
from the spring beside the kitchen and
was as cold as ice could have made it.
And the stone jug kept it cold. The
vinegar gave it pleasant acidity, the
ginger little 'tang"-that's what they
called it up in "the country"-and the
molasses just sweetened it bit. And
