who could never serve as an artists
model, possesses those rare qualities

clear eyes, clean smooth skin and

that accompany good health. A ply
sically weak woman is never attrac-

In Memory.

OF Wayne Murphy, who died Monday,
December 16, 1907, of consumption,
at the home of his mother, Mrs. Alice
Murphy, lingo, KY, his age was "a
years, 10 months and 26 days. In 1904
he was united in marriage to Miss
Mollie Davis, who died 2 years ago.
Wayne's health had been failing for
over two years, but a short time
before he died unexpected complica-
lions set in and in a few hours he
babe goodbye to earth and went to
be with Mollie and the redeemed ones.
Wayne was a devoted husband, a
kind and affecionate brother and son
and a friend to all in the full mean
ing of the word, and of him this can
be said, "he was good boy and every
one liked him." To the bereaved ones
we would say: Mourn not for Wayne,
as you would for one who had no hope
but look unto Him who doeth all thing
well, for Wayne left evidence that
he was going to the home of the re-
deemed, and his soul is now on high,
perhaps reckoning 10 some hayward
one to prepare to meet him in the
bright hereafter
He leaves besides his mother, four
brothers and one sister, two half
sisters and one half-brother 10 mourn
the death of one who was loved by all
His remains were laid to rest Tues
day, December 18th, in the Milton
Taylor graveyard. A. b.

Making Good.

There Is no way OF making f1stino
friends like making Gooj;" and Doctor
Pierce's medicines well exempify this,
and their friends, after more than two
decades OF popularity, are numbered by
the hundreds Of thousands. They have
made good" and they have not made
drunkards.
A good, honest, square deal medicine OF
known composition Is DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t still enjoys an i'm
mense sale, while most Of the prepara-
lions that have come into prominence in
gone by the board and are never more
heard OF. There must be some reason for
this longtime popularity and that Is to
be found In its superior merits. When
once given fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, IT'S supe-
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence it-has survived and grown in pop
ular favor. while scores Of less meritorious
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
For torpid liver with its attendant
Indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per-
haps dizziness. foul breath, nasty coated
tongue. with bitter taste, loss of appetite,
with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility nothing is so good as DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It's
an honest, square-deal medicine with all
its ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper
= no secret, no hocus-pocus humbug,
therefore don't accept a substitute that
the dealer may possibly make little big
ger profit. Insist on your right TO have
what you call for.
Don't buy DR., Pierce's Fsvorite Prescrip-
ton expecting 1t to prove "cure-all.p 1t
is only advised for woman's special all
ments. 1t makes weak women strong and
sick women well. Less advertised than
some preparations sold for like purposes,
It's sterling curative virtues still maintain
It's position In the front ranks, where IL
stood over,two decades ago. AS an in
viSoratine tonic and strengthening nerv-
me IL is unequaled. 1t won't satisfy those
who want booze" for there is not drop
Of alcohol In II.
DR.. Plerce's Pleasant Pellets, the oriot-
nal Eittle Liver Pills, although the first
pill OF their kind In the market, still lead,
and when once tried are ever afterwards
In favor. Easy to take as candy-one to
three dose. Much imitIted but never
eQudled.

commercial capacities is a strain, an
inherent strain, of poetic thought ana
feeling. But one could never have dis
covered this save through the agency
of these wonderful cigars.
A person who smokes a cigar with
the liable brand on is always a vulgar
ian; person who displays inches
of ash adhering to cigar is generally
ostentatious; person who selects
cigar because it is sprinkled with
light spots is an ignoramus who Gre
dts any report, and person who
chews up the end of a cigar or cigar
cite is more often than not of an ir-
ascible or peevish nature.
Smoking is also a great test of nat
ural courtesy in any individual. One
can trace selfishness, boorishness, self
assertiveness, timidity or good temper
in a smokers demeanor in any mixed
company. Judging upon the example
Of Mr.. KiPling, it has been asserted
'hdI lhc man WIN huOCho nlo plpO
ashes out behind the parlor couch is
usually genius. But this is a some
what empty assertion, and at any rate
it comprises a belief that it is in no
wise shared by housewives and land
ladies.
AS a concluding rule for diagnosing
character by tobacco habits it may
be accepted that the best men smoke
quietly and without ostentation, offer
you good cigar without a prepare
tory Grafton on it's cost and merits,and
smoke their pipes and cigars out to
the end. When a man is concerned
because his friends are not smoking
with him he is a person to be cult
waited.

hard facts such as these-bitter knowl-
edge such as this-that has driven
the victims beyond the limits of the
law, and to weakening their long suf-
fered wrongs upon the heads Of their
oppressors.
We do not for one moment uphold
lawlessness. The law, should always
take it's course, but there are en-
phatically two sides to the tobacco
situation. Lest we forget, however, let
us remember the producers side. AS
between the tobacco grower and the
trust, no honest, fairminded, right
thinking man, with the fear of his
God and the love of his fellow-man
In his heart, can hesitate in his
choice.
In discussing the tobacco situation,
every newspaper in Kentucky owes 1t
to itself and to the public to review
the past as we'll as the present; to
state all the facts, fairly and square
ly, and to denounce the robber Tobac-
CO Trust as unsparingly as 1t does
the victims of the trust-who are its
friends and neighbors."
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1908-01-10

1t is very important and in fact 1t
is absolutely necessary to health that
we give relief 10 the stomach prompt
ly at the first signs of trouble-which
are belching of gas, nausea, sour stom-
ach headache, irritability and nervous
ness. These are warnings that the
stomach has been mistreated; 1t is
doing too much work and it is de-
handing help from you. Take some
thing once in a while; especially af-
ter meals; something like Kodol for
Dyspepsia and Indigestion. 1t will
enable your stomach to do its work
properly. Sold by all druggists. m

Coal Gas Damages Building.

That the finest stone buildings and

Luminous Shells Indicate Range.

Secret experiments are being con-
Quoted In Lorient Bay with a new
26-inch luminous shell which is likley
to prove a valuable asset in time of
war. The new shell, which is the
invention of a French naval officer
throws out a ray of white light when
is strikes. During night attack it will
indicate the range of the enemy with
out exposing the firing warship to
view by means of their searchlights.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
BY local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflam-
nation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall

THE MISSOURI GIRL TONIGHT
Fun You Are Not Ashamed to Have
Your Wife, Sister, Mother, or
Sweetheart See.

The Missouri Girl, which comes
to the opera house tonight, is a
bright, rural comedy that pic
lures life in the Ozark country
in every detail. 1t has a strong
moral which always leaves a
good impression and bears the
proud distinction of having the
endorsement of all the leading
critics of things theatrical as
we'll as of the pulpit and the
press throughout the entire coun-
try. The comedy is clean, re-
fined, and exceedingly funny, be-
ing the kind of fun YOU are not
ashamed to have your wife,
sister, mother, or sweetheart see.
Mr.. Raymond has equipped
the play with the best of Access
sories and has spared no expense
in making its production one
thoroughly worthy of the patron
age accorded it.

THE SCHOOL OF MINES
Notes Concerning DOings at the
Institution During the Last
Two or Three Weeks.
OOUMITORY SOON BE READY
1t Will Furnish Comfortable Home
for Students at Very
Moderate Price.

There continue to be interest
ing and ilouriShing times at the
School of Mines. Outside the
regular work of the institution.
the subject of football has doubt
less attracted most attention so
far this year. There is now talk
of basket ball, and the fans
among the students are prophe-
syiug that the School will have
base ball team next spring that
will be second to none at the
other educational institutions of
the territory.
The new dormitory is now
fast nearing completion. The
furniture has arrived and there
is ground for the hope that every
thing will BE- in readiness for the
occupancy of the building by the
first of December. The dormi-
tory will afford a very comforta-
BILE and pleasant home for stu
dents at a moderate cost. The
rooms are large and airy. They
will be heated with hot water
and lighted with electricity.
Each room will be supplied with
hot and cold water also. There
is we'll equipped bath room on
each floor and a shower bath in
the basement. The dining room
and kitchen are fitted with most
of the conveniences known to
their departments. All in all,
the School of Mines dormitory
will be one of the best in the ter
ritory. In fact, it is doubtful if
it will have an equal in point of
convenience and comfort.
The School of Mines is now
enjoying altogether the most
flourishing year in its history.
The number of students in the
collegiate departments is far
greater than ever before, perfect
harmony prevails among faculty
and students, and moreover
there is very bright prospect
that the attendance will be
largely increased next year.
Some of the departments are be-
coming crowded for room, but
that is defect that will doubt
less be reinedied by the time an
other year comes round. The
School of mines is doing we'll.
