Obituary.

Mrs. Josephine Scates Cayce, wild
ow of the late |. H Cayce, died Sat-
urday at 9 p. m. at the home Of her
sister, Mrs. w. H Adams, of Church
Hill.
This does not come as a surprise
to her many friends and relatives. as
she has been a sufferer from Bright's
disease for eight months, being con
fined to her bed for the past two
months.
All the medical skill and tender,
loving care of a devoted sister aud
friends were Of no avail.
She was born in South Christian,
May 26, 1848. She professed her
hope in Christ at twelve years of age
and Joined South Union Baptist
church, ever living, a conscientious
Christian life. Being of bright.
hopeful, ambitious nature, she was
always ready to aid by words and
deeds every good cause, being espe-
cially interested in the welfare of
young people.
Before her marriage she was
most successful teacher, having
taught for a number Of years in
Trigg and Christian counties.
Her husband preceded her three
years ago. Her devotlons to him
during his long illness was beautiful
Three of his children survive her:
Mrs. B. F. Morris, of Blackton, Ark T;
Mrs. Roy Kenner, of this city, and
Mr.. Roy Cayce, of this city. To
these and the two sisters who sur
vive her, Mrs. Eddie Ritter. of Nc.
Alister, Okla, and Mrs. w. H.
Adams, we offer our tenderest sym
pathy.
Rev. Mr.. Barnett preached her
funeral in her mother church at $3.50
p. m. Sunday and she was laid to
rest in the family burying ground.
Farewell, dear loved one, sweet
thy rest.
Weary with years and worn with
pain;
Farewell, till in some happy place
We shall behold thy face again.
IT'S ours to miss thee all our years.
And tender memories of thee keep.
Thine in the Lord to rest, for so
He giveth mis- beloved sleep"

There are several reasons why the
ioose floor idea has gained populari-
ty with the farmers as the best man
ner Of selling their tobacco.
1st. You can eel any quantity Of
tobacco you have stripped-it is sold
n piles. The buyer will pay more,
when he can select Just the tobacco
that suits his order.
End. All the buyers attended the
sales. which means you will have
competition in the bidding. This
means 10 to Is buyers have chance
at your tobacco.
3rd. When you deliver your to-
bacco to firm like r. E. Cooper &
Co. you have plenty of room and
light to show your tobacco. Their
warehouse is just in the rear Of the
Main street warehouse, and is the
largest warehouse in the city and
you don't have to wait to get un-
loaded. You drive right through
the warehouse, 20 to 80 wagons can
unload at one time. Your tobacco
is under shelter and is not affected
by wind or rain.
4th. R. E. Cooper gives his per.
sonal attention to the sale of each
pile of tobacco and has sold the high
est priced tobacco for the FARMFR

LOOSE TOBACCO
SALES EVERY DAY BY
THE WAREHOUSES.

(Mr. F. N. Harned) Fairview, KY,
S12.75. No other Loose Floor House
in Kentucky has paid the farmer
this much for his tobacco He has
had 20 years experience. You can
get the benefit Of his knowledge and
assistance.
5th. R. E. Cooper & Co. pay the
farmer for all tobacco sold each day,
so you get your money without de-
lay. A farmer that sells his tobacco
loose from his wagon is liable to
lose from &c to 11c. as he doesn't
know the value of the grades in de.
mand and the buyer has to take
some tobacco he does not want-so
reduces the price of that grade ac-
cordingly. But when you place it
on r. E. Cooper & Co.'S Loose Floor
Warehouse you are sure of getting
all his tobacco is worth.
The market is now active and
strong, as the market is being sup
ported by the stemming trade.
When the stemmers quit buying
we may expect prices to decline.
So the farmer that wants all his
tobacco is worth, should deliver his
crops at once to

The slang Of New York has its orr
gin, of course, in the climate. 1t is the
climate that has produced the terrible
doctrine and practice Of hustle" and
for people living in a wild chaos of

language has to be pitched up high to
cope with the circumstances. There is
no time to pause nor any place in

Live Stock in Tennessee.

Live SlONh III ACDAlCSSEC.
Thanks to the legislation helping

the industry bythe State Fair and

There is no reason why Ten less, e
shouldn't be one of the greatest
sheep raising centers in the United
States. Thousands and thousands
of acres of hill lands, which have
heretofore yielded but little revenue

great incomes by popuIating them
with sheep-and the State Fair is
working to bring this about.
But sheep form only one class of
the great live stock industries which

see farmers. Already many coun-
ties are dotted with money-making
herds of beef and dairy cattle and
of thoroughbred hogs of all the
leading breeds.
The display of live stock at the
State Fair in September is going to
surpass in size and quality even the
wonderfully complete showing made
at the 1908 fair.
Since the first State Fair in 1906,
the interest in live stock in Tennes.
see has shown a very decided in
crease, which has resulted in the
production of hundreds of thousands
of dollars additional wealth within
the territory influenced by the Ten
nessee State Fair. This has been
due largely to the revitalized inter.
est in the various county fairs
throughout the State.
One new class included in the new
premium list, which will be ready
about July l, is a special prize of $50
offered by the Tennersee Packing
and Stock Yards Company for the
best three fat barrows shown by
any one owner.
Probably the biggest live stock
event will be the holding of, the
great international show of the
American Berkshire Congress of the
grounds during the Fair. This will
bring to the Fair the very best Berk-
shires in the world, several of which
animals were bred and are now own
ed by Tennessee breeders.

STOPPED THE NOISE.
A Chemists Suggestion to a Maker Of
Frussian Blue.

A Chemists Suggestion to a Maker Of
Frussian Blue.
The great German chemist. Liebig
related that when he was young
man a manufacturer Of prussian blue
who was showing him through the
works drew his attention to the deaf
ening noise made by certain commi-
nuting and mixing machines. These
machines consisted Of large iron NOR
tars in which iron pestles were actu-
ated by machinery. The pestles pound
ed the materials 10 a fine condition
and mixed them. On I.iebig's suggest
ing that some means ought to be de-
vised to prevent the terrible din made
by the machines the manufacturer
told him that it was singular fact
that the more noise the pestles made
the better was the blue produced. 1t
happens that in making prussian blue
iron is a necessary constituent Of the
mixture, a fact that did not seem to be
thoroughly appreciated by the manu-
facturer. He was therefore much sur
prised when Liebig told him that the
iron which was necessary to produce
the color was rubbed off his machin-
cry, the most extravagant way to sup
ply It. He understood for the first
time, moreover. why it was that the
greater the noise from the friction OF
the pestles in the mortars the better
the hue produced. He thus learned in
an expensive way that it was better
manufacturing TO put iron into the
mixture than to grind it of high priced

SOMETHING ABOUT
MISS Mae BEBAN
VINO Plays Leading Feminine Part
In Great Play Of "strons-
heart"

Miss Mae Beban, who will play
Molly Livingston in "Strongheart" at
the Auditorium, on Saturday, Novem-
Der ID, for matinee and night. has
found that her success in the part is
proving handicap to her ambition to
do other and more important roles.
Miss Beban has been for three years
one of the clever and attractive auin-
cite girls who are identified with the
college play and her performance has
proved highly attractive to playgoers
all over the country.
For the first couple of years this
condition of affairs was most agreea-
Bile to the young lady, but after that
she tired Of playing Molly and asked
Henry B. Harris to place her with
one of his numerous other attractions
and give her something new. Mr..
Harris looked into the situation, asked
questions of his stage manager re-
garding Miss Beban's ability and fl
nally told her she would be released
from the part in Strongheart Just as
soon as the public showed disposi-
ton to weary of her work.
Thus far she has been unfortunate
enough to hold the popular apprecia-
ton and sees visions of being obliged
to play Molly for the next decade or
so, it being quite evident that "Strong-
heart" will last for at least that
length of time.
