Fossil nuts or fruit from the
sand-stones of Morgan county we're
presented to the Kentucky Geologi-
cal Survey by party Of Seniors in
the College of Mines, upon their re-
turn from surveying trip in that
section. The peculiar specimens
brought back by them show a sand
stone thickly strewn with bits Of
fossil trees and fruit. Some of the
nuts resemble acorns, or pecans,
while others are clearly three-sided,
like Brazil nuts. One specimen was
found embedded in the center of a
stone accidentally broken open. The
perfect nut dropped out, plump and
firm as when deposited millions of
years ago in the sea sand. OF
course it had turned to stone. An
other nut or seed is partly worn
away, showing perfectly the several
layers of the outer husk or rind.
A piece Of tree, also partly worn,
showed the inner wood and the
outer bark, which had turned to
pure coal Still another bit of
branch had the bark scaled off, and
small piece of bark was seen
which had changed into iron pyrites.

Much sickness is of nervous
origin. It's the nerves that
make the heart force the blood
through the veins, the lungs
take in oxygen, the stomach di-
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
If any Of these organs are weak,
it is the fault of the nerves
through which they get their
strength. DR.. Miles Nervine is
a specific for the nerves. 1t
soothes the irritation and assists
in the generation ofynerve force.
Therefore you can hardly miss
it if you take DR.. Miles Nervine
when sick. Get a bottle from
your druggist. Take it all ac-
cording to directions, and If it
does not benefit he will return
your money.

The old saying that lightning nev-

is without foundation, at least in
some instances. A year ago light
ming struck tree on the farm of
Squire Petty, in Warren county, and
killed fine horse. A little later
in the same year lightning struck
the same tree and killed thirty fine
turkeys valued at $3.50 each Last
week lightning again struck this ill
fated tree and killed two horses
worth 5000. It goes without say
ing that this tree will be cut down
and converted into wood before il
has another chance to act as a
conductor for lightning.

TIPS ON SANDWICHES
How to Take Them Appetizing With
Little Trouble.

The housewife who learns the
art Of making sandwiches is al
ways well fortified against prob
lens when serving an informal
luncheon to guests. Close grain
ed bread should be used for coarse
bread will crumble. And bread
baked in round tins is preferable
to that cut into slices and cut with
a biscuit cutter, since the baked
edges preserve the shape. Moist
filings should be laid between let
tuce leaves, and by buttering the
bread the moisture cannot pene-
trate it, making it soggy. Melt
ed butter can be used if it is not
soft enough to spread, A salmon
sandwich is tempting article of
food and should be half mixed
with chopped boiled egg and very
thin slices of olives and pickles.
The wise hostess will make two
different kinds of sandwiches, some
with the mixture moistened with
vinegar or lemon Juice, others
without, for many persons cannot
take acids. Practical all meat
sandwiches are extremely rich,
and strong condiments are notice
able in the filling, especially mus
tard, and Catchup. While white
meat make a delicate sandwich,
yet the darker meats mixed with
mayonnaise and other relishes,
are more appetizing in every way.
When hot sandwiches are serv-
ed at a MONDAY luncheon at home
the contents of the sandwiches are
placed between the layers of bread
anu iIlSur vi lHt DlGdU Is toasted
and covered with a cooked meat
filling, then covered with buttered
toast and served hot. Peanuts
mixed with mayonnaise and sliced
egg make good sandwich. They
make fruit sandwich which is
we'll liked by those who are fond
of fruit and bread. The filing
consists of chopped dates, figs,
lemon juice and ground nuts,
lightly mixed with tart Jelly. The
bread is buttered for this. Candied
fruits are often used, but often the
sandwich is bread cake, more of
the angel food cake variety, filled
with fruits and moistened with
cherry Juice or the liquor from
preserved pineapple or peaches.
