MAKE THE TIME YOU WANT.

Most of the men and women who never do anything
worth while this earth say that it because they
not find the time They manage to around all the
while and like the hen with chicken, spend much
time over one little thing whole family.
They making very bad mistake, for time is not
found, it is made. The hours that go by the clock
simply what you make it of-you can take
the hours and of them make the time you want, put
them to good account We make all the time we
really use, and we make it by using it. When rest
we simply stop making time, shut off the call of the
duties and needs which we ordinarily use in the time
mills to make time out Of
The passing of years does for anything
in life. Many nations are Just where they
years agosome have moved hundreds of years in the
last fifty Some old men merely children far
things they ought to show for the passage of time
concerned-some young men old because they have
made the time and used it. Its the making and using
Of time that counts
There is plenty of the stuff that time is made Of if
will only it, but learn how to change it
into time we'll used. This is always done by making
great fuss and running around and hollerng because
we have much to do Often that is Just much
wasting time sitting still with folded hands. Some
of the most useless people the nosiest of the
quietest the best users of time.
In order to make time well everybody must have
thing that they trying to make with the time
design that they trying towork out, awoman has
at her LOOM III do not the threads will get tang led.
Many people, who their looms have lot of
good designs in mind but they too slow to decide
which peases them most Others start then get tired
and try another they get anything done An
other lot let things go they may and take what
comes. Nothing comes, for everything must be made.
That is the law fife Nature sees to it that no one
gets any moral intellectual spiritual wealth by sitting
still and waiting for things pour into their laps.
Wealth from all these things comes only from time well
used, and you must do it yourself If you time
for these great and good things do wait for it. it
will never come make the time and make it by select
ing design then put all your thought and effort and
devotion on it. That is the way beautiful things and
beautiful lives are made.

DEMOCRATIC CLAIMS FALSE
They Really Left Balance of About
100000 in State Treasury Instead
of 100000 as They Said.

State Auditor James has complet-
ed a statement showing the gross
receipts and disbursements of the
Commonwealth for the year end
ing January 81. in response to a re-
quest of the Senate. The state
ment shows startling condition of
the State finances as left by the
Democrates and the Auditor declares
that there win be a big deficit to face
before the next fiscal year is end
ed.
1t develops that s1.O7S. 645.75 has
been paid out of the State Treasury
in January which was due and should
have been paid on or before January

TEN YEARS FOR SETTLE
Lawyer Convicted of Crime with
Young GirI-BaiI Refused Pending
Appeal.

One of the best victories in the
campaign for decency in this town
came last Monday in the convic-
ton in Richmond of George Settle
for crime with a girl under the age
of consent. lie was sentenced to
ten years in the pen, and tho he
has appealed the case, he was not
admitted to bail. This conviction.
If sustained, as there seems no doubt
it will be, will carry with it his dis
barment as lawyer.
The girl that Settle wronged was
Drusilla Moberly. She testified that
he made violent attack on her. but
as there were no witnesses to this
he was indicted and convicted only
on the lesser charge. The circun-
stances Of the case were peculiarly
atrocious and the strong sentiment
mere against the criminal was great
ly heightened by it.

IN OUR OWN STATE
Lottery indictments Found forecast
Bureau for Northumberland
Kills Wife-Steamer at Oneida.

The Federal Grand Jury which was
meeting In Richmond when we went
to press last week. returned indict-
ments against eleven persons on a
charge of running a lottery and using
the mails TO carry out their con-
spiracles. Four of the men live in
Covington, one in indianapolis. one
in New York and the others in Gin
cinnati. Some of them have already
told the U. S. Marshall that they will
appear for trial.
One of the largest iron plants in
Kentucky, the Licking Rolling Mills
in Covington was almost destroyed
by fire, the loss being about 100000.
Congressman Edwards has done an
other favor for his district and thru
his agency the moutains of Ken
lucky will soon have a weather fore
cast bureau, so that they will not
have to depend on the forecasts from
Louisville, which often come very
late.
The possibility of running boats on
the Kentucky River to the head OF
the South Fork was shown last week
when forty foot steam boat made
the trip from Oneida to Beattyville, SO
miles, In five hours. II is planned
soon to have a regular boat service
between Beattyville and Oneida. and
much freight which is now hauled
will probably be carried up that
way.
There are pleasing signs every
where that the sentiment of the state
favors the amendment to the Consti-
tuition which would permit state aid
in the building of good roads. Every
mountain man ought to see to it that
his friends in the legislature work for
the amendment. and then help pile up
a big majority for 1t when 1t is
put to popular vote. for there is not
one thing which will do more for
the mountains.

House of Representatives at Wash
