characteristics of the Patient, Strong
and Useful Animal.
AS far back as the middle of last
century General Won Moltke in his de-
scriptive letters from Asia Minor had
many good words to say about the
camel. "This ANIMAL" he said. can
carry a burden of nearly 600 pounds
and is used by the nomads and Ara
bans in taking their women. children,
old men, tents, food, water, etc, from
place to place. 1t is able to withstand
a march of ten days without drink,
and a fifth stomach ever reserves a
drink for it's master in an hour of eX-
IRENE distress. The hair of the camel
is used for clothing and tents. The
milk and flesh are healthy. 1t exists
on the most miserable food, such as
grass and thistles. Such are the char
acteristics of this patient. strong. de-
fenseless and most useful of all ami
mails"
\ camel is never relieved of its load
from the beginning of the journey to
its end. 1t eats, walks and sleeps I'M
der it's burden, often for weeks at a
time. The training of a camel is no
easy matter, as it takes about three
years to teach it to bend the knees in
order to be loaded and unloaded.
While as the time passes the camel
will not be able to withstand the keen
competition of the new railways which
are piercing every part of Asia Minor.
yet, thanks to the power of tradition
over the Turkish inhabitants of the
country and their fondness for these
animals, the arava routes today are
still able to hold their own side by
side with the Anatolia, Cassaba and
Alden railways. Hundreds of camels
pass over the caravan bridge into the
city of Smyrna every day. and in the
market place in front of the mosque Of
Mohammed at Constantinople many
camels may still be seen.-Philadelphia
Ledger.

Try Preventics, At My Risk
With Book on Colds.

Just to prove merit-to show you how
quickly Preventics can and will check colds
or the Grippe will mail you free on
request these samples and my book. Simply
address : Dr.. Shoop, Racine, Wis.
Preventics are thoroughly harmless little
Candy Cold Cure tablets. No Quinine, no
laxative, nothing sickening whatever.
To check early Colds or Grippe with "Pre-
ventics" means sure defeat for Pneumonia.
To stop a cold with Preventics is surely
safer than to let it run and be obliged to
cure it afterward. Preventics will however
reach a deeply seated cold. But taken
early-at the sneeze stage-they break or
head off these early colds. That is surely
rs why they are named "Pre-
ventics." ~Promptness however Is ali-in-
portsnt. Promptness in the use of Pre-
ventics may save half your usual sickness.
Feverishness, night or day, with child or
adult, suggests the need of Preventics.

How He Kept His Clothes Dry.

Among Il large shooting party Oh a
northern grouse moor was a certain
elderly professor whose skill with his
gun was hardly equal to the profundity
Of his intellect. Suddenly a heavy
storm Of rain came on. and as there
was no shelter on the moor the shoot
ers got thoroughly drenched through.
AT least, all but one suffered-the pro-
fessor. He had m~ysteriously disap-
peared when the rain came On. and he
did not rejoin the party until the sun
was shining once more. To the amaze
ment of the others the erudite one
was as dry as a bone. The others.
drenched and disguised, inquired Of
him how it was he had escaped a wet
ting. Directly the rain came en-" re-
piled the professor. II went off by my
self. stripped off my clothing and sat
on them until the storm was OVER

his arrival in England affords the Brit.
ish their first opportunity to make a
real lion of him. The fact that Lieu
tenant Shackleton went farther south
than any explorer had gone before and
nearer to the south pole than any one
has yet gone to the north pole gives
the English public something TO crow
about. The point he reached in his
antarctic exploration was only Ill
miles from the south pole. His eXpe-
dition has resulted in adding much to
polar lore. and he concludes that the
south pole is situated on a plateau

Mrs. Mary Wright, one Of the Oldest

OF this community died Thursday morn

rest Friday afternoons in the Midkiff

conducted by Rev. T. ]. Acton. Grand
mother Wright as she was Familiarity
called was born and reared in Hardin
county Ky. but moved with her family
to this county about As years ago
and where she had since lived She
was the widow OF Laban Wright who
died. about seven years ago. Though
she had never made. a public profession
of faith In Chris. we believe by her
conversation and daily deeds that she
had hope of Heaven within her
heart. II needs none of the charity

of good in this world. While living
she was loved and honored by a host
of friends and relatives, and as an
immortal being her memory is cher
ished by those who loved and res
pected her as a dear good woman. For
about twenty years she had been con-
fined to her room with a cmplica-
ton of troubles, incident to old
age. During all these years she new
er mourned but bore her sufferings
with a calmness and meekness that
is almost sanity. A few days before
she died she fell from a door. The
physical injuries which she thus re-
ceived was more than her frail body
cuold bear and on the morning of the
9th inst. she passed from her earthly
home to the realms of immortal glory,
where the souls of the saints lie in
waiting for the resurrection morn,
when they shall arise and receive
their crowns of gold and be ushered
into the realms of eternal bliss
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1909-09-24

In the DEAN OF Governor johnson,
of Minnesota, the country has lost
an able. fearless man who stood close
to the hearts of the people. The
fact that he was able to be elected
Governor of that great Republican
State by nearly 10000 majority when
it gave Taft and Roosevelt upwards
of 100000 majority at the same time,
stands as a monument TO his pop
ulariiy among his home people and
at the same time demonstrates a
growing independence among the
American voters. Had Governor John
son lived he would doubtless have
figured prominently in the next Dem
ocratic National Convention and pos
sibly would have been the standard
bearer of that party.
