GERMS AND MICROBES

l he WOrlu Is growing ulau over germs and microbes.
 Do not be lone of the fear luna tics.
 Keep clean, keep cheerful, keep temperate.
 Let your food and drink be of simple and hea .thrul quality and moderate in quantity.
 Eat only when hungry, but give yourself libationS of clean liquids even if not thirsty, for the puri- flying process
 Waste no vitality worrying a. bout germs in every thing you eat, drink wear or touch.
 We can go from this body but once and it is better to go now than to live through years of m & erable fear and dread with no en- joyment of earth's pleasures, be- cause we think invisible germs are dasputing our right of way.
 The purest water to be found on earth is full of germs, good and bad; were it not, it would be stale and !ifeiess; the good germs counteract the bad germs if we keep ourselves in normal state of health. and we thrive on the combinat on.
 IT yOU-' dog or eat gives you scratch or bite do not become hy- sterical with fear and imagine you will de of blood poisoning or hydTophobia.
 The thought of fear will do you more harm than a wound.
 Use some good antiseptic which is cleansing and forget that you have been wounded. The writer has al. her life been a Mover of animals and has many tines been iacerated by some Frightened pet Nothing more serious than a temporary wound ever resulted probably because Of no fear CT expectation CT any other result from a slight accident.
 A vic ouS and reVengeful thought is tenIoiG more po.son- ous to the system than germs of any kind
 Constant oyereatiug oI the best food is more dangerous to the health than a. the germs in

 The temperate man who par takes Spar,ngiy Of e.mp-e food, and keeps his body and h mimi clean and his ungs fAled with fresh air is imperyious to mic robes.
 He can digest an army of them and never know it.
 IL is the oyerWOrked and .In- paired digestion which is stag gareI by one inv sible germ.
 Even the awful ada teration n food cannot harm Us to any marked degree if we eat only what we need to supply the waste o. tissue anal appeasa nat ural hunger.
 The mind is stronger than the body and it is the mind which needs our prime. pal attention.
 Occupy it With better things tEat glonmy fears Of atoms.
 I have heard a bevy of people devote a whole beautiful even ing to the discussion of germs of disease and what foods were safe and what were unsafe and at the end Of the discuss .On there was nothing in the way of edL ib.es or dg nkab eS left that was not labe led. dangerous,
 Life was never intended for such ignOble uses.

Government Seeks Data.

The Pittsburgh Post says: With
the object of learning the exact value
of the Ohio river as a traffic-carrying
agency, the federal government Is
seeking data on the river OPERATIONS
dating back to the earliest possible
period The work Is In charge of
Col. w. T. Russell, of the United
States corps of engineers, in charge
Of the improvements OF the Ohio
river. and he has been requested to
furnish an exhaustive report on the
subject. Boatmen and rivermen In
all parts OF the Ohio valley have been
asked to aid Col. Russell. who Is To-
Gated at Cincinnati. The report is
to be by no ,means a mere statement
of, the number of tons OF freight car
RED, nor of the boats operated, nor
OF the stages OF the water. IL is to
be a history OF the river traffic, going
back to the earliest times possible
and showing what wonderful
agency as it has been in the upbuild.
Ing of the west. COL Russell says
he desires information In particular
about the old river freight traffic.
especially through rates, and that he
would be glad to have the pictures OF
the different types of boats , which

SOME STORIES
AROUND TOWN

Employees of the express Office at
the Union station were held at bay
this morning by a feroeions looking
bulldog that slipped through the bars
of a cage. The dog was shipped to
Paducah last night and was placed in
the express room. In some manner
IL escaped and then the fun began.
The employees had important papers
in the room and other freight that
had to be shipped. First one and
then another would open the door
slightly and peep in, and then the
door would be closed with a bang
The dog was enjoying his romp to
his hearts content and would rush
for the door every time II was opened
Seeing the freight had TO be secured
one employee risked his life while the
police stood at the door with re-
volvers in hand ready to annihilate
the pup IL necessary. The entrance
was made safely and up rushed the
dog eager to receive a few taps on
the head. Seeing the dog was a pet
everybody about the station became
brave quickly and assisted in forcing
the prisoner back into his box.

intensive farming of small tracts as
the solution, and while recognizing
the good work done by the national
department of agriculture and the
state experiment stations, he says
they are not big enough for the job
He calls on the bankers and finan-
clers to take hold of the problem
and help train the farmers.
Mr.. Hills lesson, like most SER
mons. we fear. will be applied to the
"other fellow; but we know OF no
section that needs more to take this
lesson TO heart than the south, and
no where in the south more than
around Paducah.
There are men here making money
on farms. There are thousands OF
acres capable of making men com
fortably rich, If properly treated
The question. which is soon to face
the nation, the bread supply, We face
already-the fact that we pay tribute
to other sections every day for the
food we eat Highly developed ag-
ricultural regions did not feel the
panic. There is a significant fact. II
our farmers would turn their atten-
ton to the number of bushels they
could raise to the acre, instead OF
the number of acres they can boast
this country would prosper as never
before.
Let us hope that J. ]. Hills advice
will be accepted before his prophecy
comes true. We are too prone to
point with pride to the heroism of
the Pilgrim Fathers and the achieve
ments Of our sires 1t is up to us to
prove ourselves the worthy sons and
daughters of those sires. by improv-
ing the conditions they established
in agriculture, as well as city build

types and excuses. A new jury each
day receives a new appeal. There Is
no more crime here than in Europe;
but the reason is that our people as a
whole are better of, the RESPONSE
bility of the individual is greater, and
this necessity strengthens character.
The Judge is right, however. in
much that he says about the sickly
sentimentality, where there should
be revulslon at the crime, and dis
between facts of evidence
and what is obviously clap-trap to
trick the emotions.

attempt to prove this assertion by

We might have saved the Messen-

SENTIMENT AND CRIME.

Municipal Judge w. n. Gemmlll,
OF Chicago. in a recent address, said
During the last two years a wave
of sentiment has spread over this en-
tire community that does nothing
less than foster anarchy" he said.
1T is a weakly, silly, give-a-man-
another-chance idea that is virtually
knocking the props from under our
laws. There are 1000 professional
pickpockets in Chicago. They are
brought before me day after day in
court and always they ask for jury
trial have kept count Of these
trials, and nine times out of ten these
pickpoekets are set free and go back
TO ply their nefarious yocations
again"
There Is much truth in that. Euro
peans cannot appreciate the reason
OF Il, and attribute the lax enforce
ment OF our laws to natural lawless-
ness and lack Of morality among our
people. whose standards or morality
really. are of so Puritan a type. that
even in England they cannot under
stand our poin. OF view.
There Is a natural sympathy for
the individual and chiyalry In this
country. that responds quickly TO a
human appeal. II is easily taken ad-
vantage OF by the clever criminal
lawyer with a taste for the melo-
dramatic. The Judge ON the bench
soon familiarizes himself with faces.
