IN MEXICO
COMPANY Is DOING
THE LEADING BUSINESS.
Foreign Gold Being Brought Into
This City and Trade Is Incrcas-
ing Constantly.

Mr.. II. r. Lindsey, general mana
ger of the Sutherland Medicine com
pany. and president of the board of
councilmen, who has just returned
from a trip to Mexico, on visit to
the branch of the medicine company
az Monterey, is enthusiastic over that
country and the business his company
is doing down there, and brought
back substantial evidence of the sue
cess the company's product have
achieved.
Mexico is a great country in
which TO do business, and already our
medicines are the best sellers In their
lines in the county, although we have
been there but fifteen months he
said today. Eve are carrying the
name of Paducah into every town and
city and rural district of the Mexico
government, and it is gratifying to
note with what success.
While Mr.. Lindsey did not give out
for publication the volume of bust
ness the company is doing in Mexico
II is known that 1t is considerable, and
I. is the source of great gratitude to
HIM to feel that the company in these
times of financial stress in our own
country. is bringing foreign money
into the city.
81 am more and more impressed,
on each visit, with the government OF
Mexico and its Cities he said, speak
ing of the national and municipal af-
fairs. THE cities are building sew
ers, water systems and handsome
streets, and the buildings that would
do credit to any American city. and
their work seems only just begun.
The streets are very clean, apd are
kept so at little expense. They are
swept by hand, old men being en-
ployed for the service, at cost Of
fifty cents a day, and as result they
are cleaner than an average American
city,"

STOCKS SLUMPED.

A Chicago stock broker committed
suicide when the market went against
him. He killed himself because his
life was a failure. His life was a fail
lire, not because stocks slumped and
he lost his wealth: but because he
made the mistake OF devoting his life
10 the accumulation of money. Money
IS a good servant; but tickle mis-
tless. If that broker had known
some interest, other than the selfish
list that ruled him, when the market
slumped he would have not have been
SO keen. 1t would not have torn
from him his only object in life. He
would have had something left for
which TO live Stocks slumped-ls
there ever a life in which at some time
or other stocks do not slump; ever,
thing goes against the life; when the
world seems to spin around, out OF
gear, unchecked while the poor. help
less humanity stands still in a dead
calm of eternal woe?
Stocks slump, but stocks go al
again; and what's the odds? Peopi,
die, too. Stocks have been vacillat
ing and people have been dying ever
since the world began, and yet tha
Chicago stock broker thought no on
else ever had such woe as his. Stock
may have slumped before and recoy
cred, but they never took all hi
money when they slumped, and tina
was all the Chicago broker was inter
osted in-his own stocks.
II may surprise him, too, If. he car
understand. that the world isn't in
terested in the fact that those stock
slumped, except as the slump throw
light on the reason why he killed him

paying part of his tuition in labor
After taking a course in the university
he became a teacher and gradually
worked his way up until he was made
vice-president of the school. and
when he resigned to take up the prac-
tee of law in his home county he re-
fused the presidency OF the univer-
sity at a handsome salary. Judge
Wells entered the race for county
judge of Galloway county two years
ago reluctantly, yielding to friends
who knew him to be the only man
who could take the lead and rout out
crowd in control of county affairs.
Since his election to the county
judges bench he has been put to tests
that have shown his true mettle. The
fiscal court retiring as he went into
Office reduced the salary of his office
to $500 year, which cannot be
changed during his present term OF
ONCE; but he held out in face of the
fact that there is not a living in the
Office for him and he has succeeded
IN making an enviable record as
county judge.
