Matches Burned in a Dav.

II is estimated that the United
Kingdom alone manages to consume
50o,0D00 900 matches day which
comes out at about Il for every man,
woman and child. Smokers probably
account for the greater number so
that they will be interested To know
that about 30 tons OF wood are used
up IN the form Of matches every day,
or about 10000 tons year III one
days consumption OF matches were
placed end to end they would extend
for a distance OF about $1,000 miles.
Sweden and Norway. where matches
are made III enormous quantities, ex-
port over $4,000 tons Of wooden
matches every year In France, where
the tax on matches averages 8 cents
an inhabitant. the consumption is
comparatively small.

PADUCAH SWAIN
LOST HIS WAY

DOESN'T LIKE HIM ANY MORE,
(Paducah News-Democrat,)

A Paducah swain took his TAD,
love to Cairo on the delightful ex
cursloh sunday and on the trir
4 thlther they had a delightful time.
But riding on the boat made the
girls feet sore and when The, beat
| reached Cairo the poor girl could
hardly walk.
Man and maid wandered aimlessly
aDout the streets for an hour and
men the youth expressed a desire to
take the girl to see his sister. but
she demurred. She was too tired
The young couple sat down on a
friendly but hard curbstone and held
council Of war. He allowed he
was bound 10 see his sister. She al.
lowed it was too fur to walk.
A friend of the young man came
along and he introduced the tired
maiden. This gave the young man
chance to make that trip to visit his
sister. So he asked the friend to en-
tertaln the young lady until he re-
turned. He would not be gone long.
Long and longer they waited. The
sun sank in the west. but still the
youth failed to return. The
excursion boat started on its way |
back TO Paducah but STALL the youth |
aam3 not.
Finally the friend of the young man
brought the girl to the train and es.
'orted her 10 her home in this CITY.
rms msrning the missing youth ar
lived. He had forgotten upon which
street he left the girl.
1t would not do to make the names
'ublic, but Bud Howle, the depnty
ailer, is well acquainted with both of
hem.

COMPANY

is the largest Company in the
world whose sole business 1t Is
to furnish Suretyship Bonds.
1t does not engage in bank
or frost business, but limits all
its operations to the broad field
OF Suretyship.
This limitation, with its
large capital and surplus of
S4,800,00O, makes its sigma
tore on a bond far stronger
than any personal security that
can be offered.
The fact that the American
Bankers Association have
selected this Company as the

the country.
