Success and
Health for Men

Health and strength long I'M
known to the debilitated man
will quickly be felt surging IN
rich, red blood through the art
cries and veins, causing LIES
greatest ambitions to be more
keenly enjoyed, giving greater
physical energy and brain pow
er, while adding a certain per-
sonal magnetism responsible for
success in these days of the
survival of the fittest, and with
out which no man is capable OF
winning in the race of life, love
and fortune. 1t has long been
known that certain vegetable
extracts, oils and vital min
eral elements of nature, proper
ly blended and mixed, may not
only add years to the average
life, but add that which is yet
greater-the ability to succeed
in all undertakings and to en-
joy all of natures great ambi-
tions through the certain power
of physical-mental magnetism.
Those who lack these qualities
of health and magnetism
will be interested in knowing
that a well-known medical ex-
pert and writer ON medical
topics gives in recent article
the secret which enabled him to
obtain fees ranging from $4,000
to $4,000 for treating the sue
cessful men of Wall street
fame and millions. His exact
words are: The treatment is

KENTUCKY sENAToRsHIP.
Republicans, in Minority, Hope to
Elect Their Candidate.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. 9.-The polit-
ical game in Kentucky, p~roverbially
tumultuous and uncertain, promises to
furnish a spectacular senatorial con-
test. The opening of the legislative
sessions finds the Democrats severely
shaken by the last election and with
numerous rumors of ~disaffection in
the camp. Nevertheless they have a
majority of eight IN joint ballot and
the managers Of former Governor ].
c. w. Beckhan, who was nominated
at a primary eighteen months ago,
claim that he will be elected.
Pitted against Beckham is William
o. Bradley, the only Republican gov
ernor, except w. S. Taylor. who held
office between 1865 and 1907. The
Republican leaders say that the revolt
OF the Democrats against Beckham's
leadership will enable them to elect
Bradley. Politicians regard it as ex-
tremely likely that at least two Demo-
Gratis will vote with the Republicans
against Beckham, thus reducing his
probable majority to -four.

NOW IS BEST
TIME TO TAKE
Directions To Prepare Simple, Home
Mixture.

A well-known authority on
Rheumatism gives the readers Of
a large New York daily paper the
following valuable, yet simple and
harmless prescription, which any
one can easily prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon,
one ounce; Compound Syrup Sar-
saparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle,
and take a teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients
can be obtained from any good
prescription pharmacy at small
cost, and, being of vegetable ex-
traction, are harmless to take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken
regularly for few days, is said to
overcome almost any case of Rheu-
matism. The pain and swelling,
if any, diminishes with each dose,
until permanent results are OBJ
tanned, and without injuring the
stomach. While there are many
so.called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, ETC., some of
which do give relief, few really
give permanent results, and the
above will, no doubt, be greatly
appreciated by many sufferers here
at this time.
Inquiry at tie drug stores Of
this neighborhood ELECTS the in
formation that these drugs are
harmless and can be bought sep
arately, or the druggists here will
mix the prescription for u read
ers if asked to.

SLOW PROGRESS IS MADE
Selection Of Jury to Try Harry
Thaw Proceeding.

New York, Jan. 8.-Two of the
jurors Professionally accepted Monday
at the trial of Harry X. Thaw have
been excused with he consent of the
prosecution and defense. They were
James E. Conway, a hotelkeeper, and
William E. Brewer, a decorator. This
action caused no surprise, for it is
generally felt that few of the jurors
so far selected will be included in the
trial panel after the thirty peremp-
tory challenges on either side have
been exhausted.
Two new provisional jurors were
secured at the morning session, leav-
ms at the time of the 1 o'clock recess
nine men in the box.
The work of jury selection pro-
crossed slowly. The first panel of 100
talesmen was exhausted and the new
panel of 100 more reported was heay-
lily drawn upon.
Adn,ittance to the trial again was
restricted and there were many va
can, seats.
District Attorney Jerome exercised
the peoples first peremptory chal-
lenge against John q. McHorter, an
auditor, who had been passed for
cause by both prosecution and de.
Tense and was seemingly about to
take his place in the jurybox. Nc
Horter said he was travelling at the
time of the first trial and did not fol-
low 1t closely.

ASKS DAMAGES FOR LIBEL
Dr.. Carl Peters, African Official and
Explorer, Brings Suit.

Cologne, Jan. S.-Dr. Carl Peters,
who was at one time governor of Ger
man East Africa and who is known as
an African explorer, has begun an
action for libel against the chief ed
itor and the Berlin correspondent Of
the Cologne Gazette. DR.. Peters
claims damages for the publication of
a statement that he sent a letter to an
English bishop in which he confessed
to having executed a negress in Africa
because of her sexual misdoings. An
enormous number of witnesses have
been called and it is expected that the
whole scandal in connection with DR..
Peters goyernorship of East Africa
will be gone over again.
DIR. Peters recently sued the Muen-
chener Post for libel in accusing him
of cruelty to the natives when he was
governor of German East Africa in
1891. The editor of the paper was
fined S125 and costs.

NIGHT RIDERS ACTIVE
Armed Mob Pays Visit to Two
(. More Kentucky. Towns.
CITIZENS TERROR STRICKEN
Independent Tobacco Warehouses De-
stroyed and incidentally Some Other
Property-Residents Obey Warning
to Keep OF Streets.

Paris, KY, Jan. S.-N1gnt riders
made their appearance in force In the
Burley district. visiting two towns, one
in Fleming and the other in Bath
county, and destroying two ware
houses and a big general store. The
raiders did not fire any shots In either
place and left as soon as the work had
been accomplished. The men were all
masked and heavily armed and caused
q reign of terror among the citizens Of
the little villages.
The first visit was made to the town
of Bethel, in Bath county. This is q
little village of about 500 Inhabitants
and the people were wholly unpre-
pared for a raid. The night riders
marched into the town shortly before.
midnight and those who were aroused
we're told to go back into their houses.
The mob proceeded directly UP the
main street of the village and, saturat-
ing with oil the big Independent house.
of A. r. Robinson, soon had it a a
of flames. AS 500 as the riders had
left the village the citizens rushed to
the scene of the flames and attempted
to put out the fire. Before they sue
ceeded in this, however, the general
store of Peters Bros, adjoining the
warehouse, was burning and all efforts
to save ii were futile.
From Bethel the raiders visited the
little town of Sherbourne, in Fleming
county, where they destroyed the indie
pendent warehouse of Daugherty Bros.
No shots were fired, but the raiders, in
order to prevent any aid from being
summoned, cut all telephone and tele-
graph wires leading into both places.

DUE TO INSTRUMENTATION
Speech Of Count okuma Caused Con
sternatjon in Europe,

||
Toxic, jan. 8.-A remarkable situa'
ton has arisen as a result of the pub.
lication in London of a mistranslation
of the speech delivered by Count
Okuma at Kobe. Little attention was
paid to this address at the time of its
delivery because Count Okuma, in pre-.
vious speeches on this same subject,
had made his views we'll known. The
London publication put the count in
the position of urging India to rise
against Great Britain.
Count Okuma and the Japanese for.
eign office have been bombarded with
cablegrams of inquiry from Paris, Ber-
lin, st. Petersburg and London and
requests that the count publicly repu.
diate or confirm his remarks. In re-
ply Count Okuma said:
'In my Kobe speech l did not use
the words that were put into my
mouth. It is apparent that a mis-
translation of these remarks has just
reached England. My views on the
subject of trade with India, as we'll as
my friendliness to Great Britain,
ought to be too we'll known to make
it necessary for me publicly to repu-
diate the absurd construction which
has been placed upon the remarks I
made at Kobe. I have never enter.

stretched into such a meaning. India
offers us a fine field for trade and l
