BRAIN POWER
Increased by Proper Feeding.

| r. Il
A lady writer who not only has done
good literary work, but reared fam.
lily. found in Grape-Nuts the ideal food
for brain work and to develop healthy
children. She writes:
II am an enthusiastic proclaimer OF
Grape-Nuts as regular diet. ! for.
merly had no appetite In the morning
and for years while nursing my four
children, had insufficient nourishment
for them.
unable to eat breakfast felt faint
later. and would go to the pantry and
eat cold chops, sausage. cookies,
doughnuts or anything happened to
find. Being a writer, at times my
head felt heavy and my brain asleep.
when ! read of Grape-Nuts I began
eating 1t every morning. also gave 1t
to the children, including my 10
months old baby, who soon grew as
fat as a little pig, good lnatured and
contented.

need Of sustained brain power, began
sating q small saucer Of Grape-Nuts
with milk, instead of my usual indi.

Cruelty To Animals Causes Fine.

Henry Lawrence was tried be-
fore Judge Bullock on a charge of
cruelty to animals. The charges
grew out of the condition of a
crippled horse found by County
Detective Marshall on the George
town pike. The horse had bro
ken leg and bore evidences of mis-
treatment and had to be shot.
The defendant denied having
beaten or mistreated her in any
way, and claimed to have merely
turned her out on the road so she
might rest and-be able to make
the trip home. He paid S. for the
mare and sold her for 81.
Mrs. Herring, president of the
Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, of George
town, was called by the prosecu-
ton. She saw them coming out
of Georgetown. The mare had
been beaten and she threatened to
arrest them and they promised to
not mistreat her further. A fine
of $50 and costs was entered. -

Success.

w. S. Lloyd, the enterprising
druggist, rather than await the Or
binary methods of INTRODUCED IN,
urged the DR.. Howard Co. to Sc
cure a quick sale for their celebra-
ted specific for the cure of consti-
patton and dyspepsia by offering
the regular soc bottle at half price.
The wonderful success of this
plan was great surprise even to
w. S. Lloyd and today there are
scores of people here in Mt. Ster-
ling who are using and praising
this remarkable remedy.
In addition to selling a soc bot
tie of DR.. Towards specific for
25c, w. s. Lloyd has so much
faith in the remedy that he will
refund the money to anyone whom
it does not cure.
When your head aches, your
stomach does not digest food easily
and naturally; when there is con
stipation, specks before the eyes,
tired feeling, giddiness, bad taste
in the mouth, coated tongue, heart
burn, sour stomach, roaring or
ringing in the ears, melancholy
and liver troubles, DR.. Towards

not, it will not cost you a cent.

SCHOOL CHILDREN SUFFER-

Recognizing the Democratic
Party.

We heard much from one fac
ton of the Democrats last summer
about a reorganization of the
Democratic party; about arraying
it against fraudulent elections;
about new officers for the Crimi-
nal Court, so as to lift it above the
influence of Aaron Kohn; about
standing for the enforcement of
the laws; about repudiating for
the party all responsibility for the
crimes of 1905.
Such suggestions held out a hope
for the regeneration of the party,
through conflict, and through the
elimination of the saloon influence
and the obliteration of the Ma
chine.
Instead of such an arrangement
we have an abject surrender to all
the evil influences in local politics,
and all in the name of Harmony.
The very men who applauded
Mayor Bingham for rejecting such
propositions with the declaration
that such politicians might go to
hell'' are ready to join the same
crew. in their downward journey.
There are thousands of Demo-
Gratis in Louisville who stood back
of Mr.. Bingham, during his four
months in office, in the hope that
the better instincts of the Demo-
cratic party would respond to APP
peals made to all good citizens in
those four months of hard work
on the part. of Mr.. Bingham and
others.
Instead of such union we had
the first Seelbach Conference, at
which Mr.. Bingham was told in
effect he could have the nomina-
ton for Mayor and an election, if
he would swear allegiance to the
Machine.
That suggestion was rejected by
all the Reform Democrats.
Instead of Bingham, the Mutual
Protective Association, rejecting
the counsels of Col. Whallen and
adopting the counsels of Aaron
KOhn, put the Owen Tyler ticket
in the field and went to defeat
clamOring for an open Sunday.
(The Nj. p. A. is composed of sa-
loon keepers.)
We see nothing in the new Har-
mony movement that was not rep
resented in the First Seelbach
Conference. 1t is surrender.
If such a movement could succeed
it would awaken the whole State
to a revolt. 1t is the result of the
revolt of the Mutual Protective
Association against Col. Whallen's
leadership.
1t makes the liquor question, in
all its rami6catiOns, the Overshad-
owing question, the dominant issue,
not in Louisville politics, but in
State politics.
1t means the ascendency of the
Liquor Dealers Association in the
Democratic party.
1t means the reduction of the sa-
loon license.
1t means the defeat of the.
County Unit Bill.
1t means an open Sunday.
1t means unrestricted racetrack
1t means 300 crap games in
Louisville.
Let the citizens of the State and
city get ready for the contest of
1909 against these partisan inhu-
ences that SO long controlled the
Democratic party, which for a
time, in 1907, Governor Beckbam
and Mr.. Bingham threw off,

FOR LOCAL OPTION.
Anti-SaIOOn League Endorsed
Over Advocates of Absolute
Prohibition.

At Baltimore, Md, the general
conference of the Methodist Epis-
cOpal Church at a recent session
put itself on record as endorsing
unqualifiedly the work of the Anti
Saloon League and also favoring
local option. Both of these posi-
lions are new with the church, as
up to this time no special organi-
zation has had the specific endorse
ment of the church, while it has
stood on the other hand for sbso-

adherents that it was wrong for

any particular organization and
also that it was a distinct violation
of the standard of the church to
come out in favor of local option.
The majority supporters main

was worthy of recognition, de-

that is doing the work for temper

it does all other societies and eff
