Regarding the loss of wool, II sheep
are pulling and biting. or IL tufts Of
wool are found protruding from the
fleece, the indications are that the
cause is scab. The disease may be
widespread In a flock before much
wool is lost. When sheep lose their
wool from this cause the disease is far
advanced. An inspector should be
consulted. Overlooking causes wool
to slip. Sometimes bunch of sheep,
as a whole, may be fed very light,
when two or three greedy bosses in
the flock may get too much, especially

Nervous
Breakdown

Nerve energy is the
force that controls the or
gans of respiration, cir
culation, digestion and
elimination. When you
feel weak, nervous, irri-
table, sick, it is often be-
cause you lack nerve
energy, and the process
of rebuilding and sustain
ing life is interfered with.

II don't know whether it's prohlb1-
tion or whether the peopleare getting
better, or what it is, but the fact re-
mains, that things criminal were nev-
er before at such low tide in Jetfer-
son County. Outside of one negro
killing, / have had practically no
criminal cases before me since the
first of the year. December of last
year was unusually quiet too
Thus spoke Coroner w. D. Paris in
discussing the present situation in
Jefferson County from a moral view
point. Compared with conditions ex-
isting during the first half of January,
1907, Coroner Paris said that the en-
tire community appeared to be pros
pering, and that people had quit light
ing and quarreling. The coroner was
congratulating himself upon having
an opportunity to investigate certain
things that have hitherto been sacrl-
feed because of the large amount OF
crime.
"Did you know what has happened?
There hasn't been a killing in Bir-
| mingham since we have had prohibit
tion, said Judge Feagin in comment
ing on a recent case.
'The prohibition law has put the
ambulances out of business" This,
statement was made Wednesday by
one of the most prominent untertak-
ers of the city. He said: The ambu-
lances which we now have are dead
property so far as responding to emer-
gency calls is concerned. Since the
prohibition law went into effect we
have had no use for the four now
stored in our stables. Nobody gets
drunk any more and there are but few
street car accidents caused by men
falling off and getting hurt. There
are 40 shooting affrays and no mur-
ders. The Union Signal.

The Rainy Sundays.

The Weekly calendar of the
New York Avenue Presbyterian
Church, of Washington, D. c.,
contains nine reasons for attend
ing church on rainy Sabbaths that
are worthy of much wider circula-
tion.
Why / attend church on rainy
Sabbaths:
1. Because the fourth Com
mandment does not except the
rainy Sabbath.
2. Because insist on the min
lister being there and his contract
is no more binding than mine.
3. Because ! may miss exactly
the sermon or prayer | need.
4. Because my presence helps
more on rainy days than on bright
days.
5. Because the rain did not
keep me from the tea last Monday,
nor the reception last Tuesday,
nor the dinner last Wednesday,
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1908-02-14

no. the ball game last Saturday,
nor from the store any day in the
week.
6. Because an example which
cannot stand a little wetting is Of
little account.
Z. Because my faith should
not be matter of thermome-
ters.
s. Because the man who fears
the rain will soon fear the cloud,
and he who fears the cloud will
soon fear the sky, and he who
fears the sky will soon fear the
daylight itself as reason for neg
lecting the church.
Because my real excuse
must be to the God of the Sab
bath. -Ex.

trouseaus of royalty and million

seau of the present Queen of Spain
cost no more than one million
francs, 5000, 900, "jewels included" !"

E. B. Lovelace Dead.

Fulton, KY, Feb. 3.-E. B. Love
4 lace, one Of the Oldest and best
known citizens of Fulton, died at
his home in this city at LILO o'clock
Yesterday morning. Mr.. Lovelace,
throughout southwest Kentucky
and Tennessee, was we'll known.
He had been in a serious condition
for several days, death being due
to pneumonia. Had he lived be
would have celebrated his 80th
birthday Tuesday, Feb. Is.
The deceased was faithful mem
Der of the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church, and had enjoyed its priv
leges for more than half century.
Funeral services were conducted by
Rev. w. H. McLeskey at the Cum
berland Presbyterian Church this
morning at 10 o'clock. Interment
followed at the City Cemetery un-
der the auspices of the Masons, of
which fraternity Mr.. Lovelace was
a member. Six children survive
him They are Mrs. Annie Lee
Hudson, of Bardwell; ]. R. Love
lace, w. w. Lovelace, of Union
City, Tenn; ]. S. Lovelace, OF
Fulton; T. H. Lovelace and Mrs.
Mary Dacus, of st. Louis.
The foregoing announcement re-
calls the fact that Mr.. Lovelace was
a resident of this city for IS or 80
years and is we'll remembered here
by the older citizens. He came to
this city from Moscow, KY, where
he was doing business prior to the
: year 1860, and afterwards engaged
in the mercantile business on Main
street. Physical disability prevent
ed Mr.. Lovelace from enlisting in
the Southern cause. Mr.. Lovelace
vas born in Ballard County, KY,
near Lovelaceville. His first wife
was Miss Annie Calvert, daughter
of Rev. Calvert, of this city. He
was married in 1857 and about the
year 187Ohis wife died, leaving four
children, two of whom are now liv-
ing-John Lovelace and Mrs. An

An Appeal to the Vot-
ers of Obion County

Gentlemen: In all the history of
Tennessee, no Legislature has been
elected on whom such important is.
sues depended, as will depend on the
Legislature that will be elected in
Tennessee the coming November. Be
fore that body will come the question
of passing law that will entirely
prohibit the manufacture and sale of
liquor in Tennessee.
Georgia and Alabama both passed
prohibitory laws during tiie past year.
Oklahoma entered the Union a dry
State. 1t is as certain as anything
can be in future that Mississippi will
pass prohibitory law at the next
meeting of her State Legislature,
Kentucky is moving for State Prohi-
bition. Maine, North Dakota and
Kansas are dry. North Carolina, South
Carolina, the two Virginias, Florida,
Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Mis-
souri, are following rapidly on, with
mu%h more than half their territory
already under prohibition and the
rest going dry as fast as The question
can be brought before the people. In
diana, Illinois, Ohio. indeed almost
every State in the United States is
moving in the same direction, with
large and rapidly increasing territory
in each under prohibitory law.
In Tennessee liquor can only be re-
tailed in the cities of Memphis and
one of it's suburbs, Nashville, Chatta-
nooga and the mining town of Lafol-
lette, But the manufacture and the
wholesale business is nowhere prohibit
ted. We want to pass law or laws
that will outlaw the whole liquor bus
mess when our next Legislature meets.
That nine-tenths of the people in
Tennessee are in favor Of such law
is evidenced by the fact that so large
part of the territory of Tennessee is
dry. And it is not fair, with such an
immense majority of our people in IA
vor of State Prohibition, that Tennes
see shall linger longer in the ranks of
wet States.
And so we come to you in the name
of the thousands of women belonging
to the Woman's Chris tian Temper
ance Union of Tennessee, and in the
name of other thousands of wives and
mothers whose boys are in danger as
long as this iniquitous business is per-
mitted in our State, and before candi-
dates begin to announce themselves
for the Legislature, urging that you
send no man there from your county
who is not in hearty sympathy with
such law.
We beg of you when man announ-
ces himself for the Legislature from
your county, to look into his record
and find out how he stands on this
most important question. Talk with
him on the subject and find out if he
is personally in favor of State Prohi-
bition. And we beseech you, most
earnestly. to vote only for men
for these offices who are honestly
and heartily in favor of a law prohi-
biting the manufacture and sale of
liquor in Tennessee.
