Rheumatic
Pains

"My mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DR..
Miles Anti Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her"
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Royce6eld, N. J.
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening influence of
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, why
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get a pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and il
it does not benefit he will return
your money.

1t is estimated that within a rad
ius OF 100 miles of Greenup there
are 10000 barrels of sorghum raised
this year. One can hardly realize
that, but it is really a close guess,
as we were told by one who is on
the inside track of the question.
Sorghum is very likely to take a
fall soon, as so much of it is on
the market. Last year the demand
for sorghum was more than grown.
hence the reason for su CHI high
this year there is so much more
grown than the demand. At present
the price is 81 cents and pretty
good price at that. We have been
told that about 1000 barrels have
been grown in Greenup county this
year and only about 500 barrels Of
it has been marketed.

DIR. Charles e. Macdonald, Of the

the same facts as to fish diet which

that the diet itself is at fault, but
that there is an infection from tuber-

sure, but not at all improbable.
The matter is of timely interest
in view of the differences of opin-

Shields reached the ground the crash

Raising Money For Charity.

From times immemorial in China
donation of 10000 taels to charity
has secured for the donor the much
priced peacock's feather, while for
half that sum title of nobility is
conferred on ones ancestors to the
third generation. The late Emperor of
Brazil followed the same method
when erecting hospital in Rio de
Janeiro. Having found difficulty in
obtaining the necessary funds, he an
nounced that the title of baron I"
was to be conferred on every sub
scriber of 100000 milreis, and that
of count" on subscribers of $50, 900
milreis. This announcement pro-
duced the desired effect and the hos.
pital was soon completed. The open

Emperor and attended by large
number of the newly ennobled, who
did pct altogether relish the words in

FOLLOWS MURDERED SON.
George Sampson, Brother of the ADJ
miraI, Found Dead in Rochester.


Rochester, N. Y.-George Samp-
son, father of Harry Sampson, whose
widow, Georgia, was arraigned at Ly-
ons for the murder of her husband,
was found dead in bed at his home
at Palmyra.
He was brother of the late Rear
Admiral Sampson, and was an inn
portant witness for the prosecution of
his daughter-in-law. Mr.. Sampson
had grieved keenly over his sons
death.
There was no sign of struggle;
nothing that looked like either foul
play or suicide. He had been for
some years sufferer from heart
trouble, and it is believed he died
of heart disease.
Mr.. Sampson is reported to have
said that the story of the killing of
his son told by Mrs. Simpsons fam
lily, the Allyns, to him, was not the
one told to the Coroner's jury by
them. This the Allyns deny.
At all events the death of George
Sampson is looked upon as removing
an important witness for the prosecu-
tion.
Mrs. Harry Sampson, after her ar
raignment, was locked up in the
Lyons Jail.

ASSESSES COST ON LABOR.
Supreme Court Holds Unions MUS
Pay For Guards Against Boycott.

White Plains, N. "a decision of
vast Importance to labor unions and
employers was filed by Supreme
Court Justice Mills here. 1t is, in
effect, that labor organizations which
picket factory and try to maintain
a boycott, thereby forcing the owner
to employ guards to protect his prop
erty, must pay him for the expense
he incurs.
The case involved was brought by
Joseph w. Jones, president of the
Jones Speedometer Company, and
took two weeks to try. The suit was
directed against George M. Maher,
president of one of the lodges of the
International Association of Machin-
lists, which called strike in his fac
tory in New Rochelle in March, 1907.
Picketing was resorted to and an at
tempt was made to boycott the COM
pany's product.
In May, 1907, Jones applied for an
injunction and also brought suit to
recover the money he had paid to
guards and for other expenses caused
by the strike. The damages due in
the case are placed at $3847.
