LITTLE CHAP FINDS HIS
LONG LOST PET POODLE

AS College street woman stood at
Rylander's corner yesterday, with her
little boy four years old, the little
fellow suddenly began to scream lus-
tily.
At the same moment a girl of the
period" with rated hair following
her yard behind the back of her
head, was passing.
There he is, mamma; theirs Fido f;
get my doggie for me, the youngster
yelled.
The boy had lost his poodle dog, and
seeing the strange hairy bundle fas-
tened upon the girls head, he thought
it his long dead poodle.
1t was very natural mistake, and
the child cried piteously as the girl
rounded the corner with her knot
following.

MILLINERS TURN OUT

New York, Sept. 14.-Since the sue
cess of the Wright brothers in Paris,
the milliners there have been sitting
in solemn conclave twenty-four hours
every day trying to figure out how a
new hat could be gotten up.
They did not forget the vogue of
the various timely hats of recent
years, to which many of the finest
''maisons de la millinerie" can trace
their present-day prosperity. So they
saw in the craze for the flying ma
chimes an opportunity to gather in
more of the golden francs that run
loose through the streets of Paris.
After seven days and seven nights
of thought the doors were unlocked
and the care-lined milliners came
forth with triumph on their faces
Their labor resulted in the creation
that is today the scream of all Paris

FireDrOof Warehouse.

The Lexington Tobacco Market has
the only fireproof sales warehouse
known to the trade. We refer to the
new Lexington Tobacco Warehouse,
which was built during the past sum-
mer by Messrs. w. F. and l.. NJ. Land,
B. E. Allan and j. N. Gibbons.
1t is built of brick on stone founda-
tion and has a concrete floor and
gravel roof.
These gentlemen have just complet-
ed a good two story stable with 100
dry clean stalls and keep a man to al
tend TO it night and day. This new en-
terprise has taken place in the front
rank of warehouses and is selling more
tobacco for more money than any house
ia Kentucky.
The patrons of the market are
rapidly learning that Land and Glib
bons are a sales team that can't be
beaten and tobacco shown Oh the floors
of the Lexington" is under the best
light known to the trade. The custom
ers of this warehouse do not have to
wait until sal are over but can cash
their checks as soon as their tobacco
is sold, thereby Z wing q great deal of
time.
The farmers of this section can't do
better than to p2troDize the ''LeXing-

Is Doing Little Good.

The annual report Of Gen. Marshall,
chief of engineers. made public Mon
day at Washington, gives black eye
to the Kentucky river improvement.
1T is believed" says the report, "that
the project has so far had no material
effect on freight rates. Nor is there
likely to be any decided changes in the
volume or character of commerce bene-
fitted" the report says, until the
improvement is carried to the head of
the river, where it is hoped that coal
lands may be developed. The principal
commerce Of the river. Gen. Marshall
says, is loose logs. and this improve
ment is detrimental to this rather than
otherwise. as the logs are damaged in
passing the dam. and in return cause
much damage to the works"

The Way it Stands Today.

Thirteen years ago, notes a contem-
porary, Republican newspapers and
campaign speakers were worried to
death for fear the dear people would
vote for 80 cent dollars They
didn't. and the terrible calamity which
threatened the country was seemingly
averted. But without voting for them,
the dear people have, nevertheless, had
50-cent dollars thrust upon them. The
great Republican, sound money, 100
cent dollar of this year of 1909 is
worth just what so cent piece was in
1885, that is. it will purchase what 81
cents would purchase thirteen years
ago. The cost Of the necessities of life
has increased 49, per cent since 1896.
1t takes 81 to buy what 81 would
have bought thirteen years ago. Have
the wage earners' earnings doubled in
these thirteen years. Are the clerks,
the bookkeepers and the hundreds of
thousands of employees on monthly or
weekly salaries getting twice the
money every month or every week that
they did thirteen years ago? Unless
their earnings are doubled they are
worse eff than they were then. They
are receivsng tod y the h0-cont dbl
lars t.ey were l7a-ned against in 1885,.
