NEW ORGANIZATION
For Hopkinsville and Sur
rounding Country.

A number of our best citizens are
organizing what will be known, when
Incorporated, as the Southern Real
Estate and Land Improvement Com
pany, with an authorized capital
stock of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,-
000), divided into shares Of Ten Dol
lars $50 OO) each. This Real Estate
and Land improvement Company
will be a commercial club and land
improvement company combined.
The object Of the proposed organiza-
ton is not to deal in real estate To-
cally, but will have the support of
the local real estate dealers and will
make a speciality of offering induce
ments for people in other states who
have sold their coal and farm lands
and are looking for homesteads and
real estate investments.
This organization will advertise
this section of Kentucky in sys-
tematic way and will from time to
time get up excursion trains from
other states, bringing people into
Hopkinsville and sell to them farm
lands and real estate. which may be
listed with this organization
1t is believed by every one that we
nave as great opportunities in this
locality for an organization of this
kind as anywhere in the United
States. First, because we have the
natural resources and a large variety
of ways for making money. We not
only have fine farming lands, but
we have mineral resources, reason
ably good roads. elegant churches,
good banking faci tiles, splendid bus
mess houses, good schools and edu.
eational centers.
We believe every business man
will take an interest in this organi-
cation and it will only cost each man
ten dollars to become a stakeholder
and member, unless he desires to
subscribe for more than one share
and there is no question but what
the advertising will be worth the
price of one share to become mem
Der of this organization and paruci-
pate in the advertising which this
town and community will receive.
MIR. Frank G. Hoge will probably
see you if he has not done so already
and give you an opportunity of be-
coming member of this organiza-
ton.

PinkhamS Vegetable Compound made

backache. / hope / can help others bv
telling them what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has done for
me. - Mrs. EMMA INIsE, 1873 First St.
Milwaukee, Wis.
The above is only one of the thou
sands of grateful letters which are
constantly being received bv the
Pinkham Medicine Company of Lynn
Mass, which prove beyond a doubt that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from roots and herbs
actually does cure these obstinate diA
eases of women after all other meanAI
have failed, and that every such suflf
ering woman owes it to herself to at
least give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
BILE Compound a trial before submit
ting to an operation, or giving up
hope of recovery.
Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass, !
invites all sick women to write
her for advice. She has guided
thousands to health and her
advice is free.

GOING ABOUT IN CHINA.
Useful Sedan Chair In the Crowded,
Noisy Streets of Canton.

Useful Sedan Chair In the Crowded,
Noisy Streets Of Canton.
There are but two ways to go about
Canton-on foot or in a sedan chair
The streets are from four to eight feet
wide the average being probably about
six feet, and wheeled vehicles are out
Of the question. Even the jinrikisha
cannot be used here. If you try to
make your way on foot the density Of
the moving masses renders progress al
most impossible. and rowdies and pick
pockets are numerous, so that the best
plan is to take a responsible native
guide and chair.
The chairs are carried by two, three
and sometimes four men, according to
the weight of the passenger. The two
bamboo poles by which the chair is
supported are about eighteen feet long
and are Joined at the front and rear
ends by a crosspiece. After you have
taken your seat the coolies raise the
ends Of the poles to their shoulders
and are off at a dogtrot, only inter-
rupted by a congestion of traffic, -
which occurs very frequently.
It Is surprising to see how rapidly
they can go through the crowded
streets. The whole line of chair car
riers are yelling all the time, as are
other people who are carrying burdens,
for as there are no carts in use the
entire merchandise Of the city is trans
norted In the same manner. not by
chairs, of course. but slung on poles
carried across the shoulders
The noise resulting from the stimuli
taneous shouting Of every one in sight,
both in front and in the rear for the
stream is flowing in both directions. is
enough to make one wonder if the long
expected riot has begun.-Denver Post.

Many Jews OBJECT.

cert centering around the personality Of
a diminutive cantor of eight summers
Apart from this, the very fact that
admission TO the services could not be
obtained except on presentation Of a
priced ticket, lent to the function a COM
mercial flavor that was more objection

rabbi strongly objects to these freak
