Gossip.

Some one with a taste for figures
has discovered that over s20,O0O,0OO
has been spent racing for the Ameri'
cas- cup, the original cost Of which
was only about $3.50. Possibly this is
true, but what If it is? The races have
been enjoyed by pretty much the
whole civilized world, extending
through several generations. The ad.
yancemcnt in the art Of building speed
yachts has been most wonderful, and
has surely been a benefit to the sport
Of yachting. The men who have fur
nished the money to build and handle
the chalengers and defenders were
wealthy enough TO furnish such luXu-
ries, and the people who have witness
ed the contests have surely been we'll
repaid for the outlay. 1t viii be dis.
tinct loss to the public should there
be no more races for the Americas
cup,
The figures referred TO on the past
performances for the famous sea
trophy are as follows:

The Body Merely Machine.

There are just any number OF dis
eases in which the Osteopathic is the
only treatment that will give any re-
lief at all.
The various phases of neuralgia
and rheumatism as an example yield
more readily to the Osteopathic
treatment than they do to medicine.
SO too do lumbago, chronic head
aches, partial paralysis and kindred
ailments, and to one who knows the
first principals of Osteopathy 1t is
easily to see why this is SO.
Osteopathy is a scientific system
OF exercise for the nerves and organs
of the body-simply manipulation
by which II restores structural nor
mallty. TIE body is a machine run
by unseen forces called life, and that
II may FUN tremendously 1t is neces-
sary that there be liberty of blood,
nerves and arteries from the gene
rating point to destination. This Is
what osteopathy does-Agfves liberty
to the blood, nerves and arteries.

BRUNER EMPTIES HIS VEST
DOCKET

DR.. Ben Bruner, secretary of state
elect, is a courteous ant affable man.
He is the soul of hospitality and
kindness of heart. He has nothing
that he would not give to crafty a
fellow man, and if he thought 1t
would add a moments pleasure to
the life of friend, he would prom
Use anything. concerning the posses
sion of which he might entertain the
most vague anticipations.
Only last week he gave Kentucky
to Indiana. DR.. .Bruner attended a
banquet in Indianapolis, at which
various factions Of the party said to
vice-President Fairbanks: "Sir, we
wish to honor you. We shall sec to
IL that the Indiana delegation is in
structed to vote for you, as long as
your name Is before the national con-
yention. Don't worry any more
about, the matter. We shall relieve
you from the distressing details of
selecting the delegates"
The vice-president replied: "My
Dear. Dear Friends, | could not
think OF troubling you. shall GER
tainly name those delegates myself.
Indeed, IL l should not, l fear there
might be an unseemly disagreement
over instructions for second choice,
and to my way of looking at it, there
will be no second choice"
Just about then DR.. Bruner struck
in and told how deeply Kentucky is
indebted to the vice-presdent for the
effect of his speeches on the recent
election, and promised to deliver
Kentucky's delegates to the Fair
banks boom.
AS we remarked before. DR.. Ben is
one of the best fellows in the world,
and II the Kentucky delegation does
not vote for Mr.. Fairbanks for presi.
dent, his friends may be sure. II is
because the genial secretary Of state
can not control IL.

NEGRO EDUCATION IN THE

No treatise on the race problem
ever went deeper into the real seat
of the trouble than resolutions adopt
ed at the meeting of the Southern
Educational association at Licking
ton. dealing with Negro education.
These educators, southern men, be-
1ieve that whatever "the ultimate so
luton of this problem may be, edu-
cation must be an important factor
IN that solution" and their plans
for that universal Negro education
proceed along the most practical
lines.
They believe in colored teachers
