YT'S a very difficult job to conduct a
II set of games such as the Vendome
Club had scheduled yesterday at
Olympic Park, and it is difficult to get
all the athletes to keep their promises
to appear. Yet we feel compelled to
say that when Harry Gessing and Mel
Sheppard are advertised to appear in
special mile run and they don't 10 so
something is wrong. Kivlat, Gissing
and Sheppard were down TO meet at
the Monument games some weeks ago.
1t was printed in New York papers
that Kiviat would run In the Vendome
games to keep in condition for The
Monument mile. which win be held
June 5, but that Gissing and Sheppard
had promised not to. This practise
OF advertising falsely should be stopped,
especially when a air crowd turned
out to see that race.
Conduct like that gave rise to many
kicks Yesterday. Mr.. Voigt, we'd re-
port such matters to the A. A. U.if the
athletes disappointed. An explanation
is certainly forthcoming. This is a
matter to be reported to the A. A.. U.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness. and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infamed condition of the mui
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless
this inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of deafness (caus-
ed by catarrh) that cannot be cured

THE SAGE OF 'POSSUM FORK
on Comets and Their
Functlons.Wonders of Space.


Editor County Record: We are
watching every evening the swiftly
! receding Halley's comet and musing
on it's vast journey of six thousand
millions of miles before it can get
back with another load of sun fuel:
for it is said its elliptical pathway
extends far beyond the orbit of Nep-
tune, our most distant planet, which
takes 164 of our years to make cne
of his.
Other comets will visit US, how
ever, over and over again. before
Halley's comet can make another
round of 76 years, for there are
many hundreds of them throughout
tour solar system, and it is conjeo-
tured that some of them visit also
other solar systems, although it is
more than twenty thousand millions
of miles to the nearest sun.
But (outside the planets, every
star is a sun. moving with vast speed,
with all their attendants, around
some great common centre, just as
all our planets revolve around our
sun. And if all these millions of
suns are fed by comets scavengers
of creation-what an army of fuel
gatherers in nature!
Yes, Gods plantation is the uni
verse of suns and solar systems Of
planetary worlds, intermingled with
comets and flying debris, like bees
in forest; everything on the move,
centrifugal motion counteracting
universal attraction, or gravitation;
all-all is perpetual motion, from
the least .meteoric stone, moving in
its own individual orbit, to the larg-
est of planetary worlds-yes, all
suns, planets, worlds, comets and
debris of every description, in. one
grand, universal perpetual motion
around the throne of God-heaYen
itself. And we-poor little human
beings are snugly ensconced under
a bomb-proof atmosphere that burns
into vapor nearly all the flying
meteoric stones that assail us day
and night, and causes to float away,
harmless, any and all poisonous gases
that comets tails can ever bring
along, our atmosphere being heavier
than the gases which scientists try
to frighten us with.
No wonder the Psalmist said:
What is man, that Thou art mindful
of him, or the son of man hat Thou
visitest him." Thou madest him
little lower than the angels, but
crownest him with glory and honor"
well done, thou good and faithful
servant; thou has been faithful over
few things, l will make thee ruler
over many things" But, Mr. Editor,

PROHIBITION PRINCIPLES
ARE ROCK RIBBED.
THE QUESTION SHOULD NOT BE
VIEWED FROM STANDPOINT
OF REVENUE.

OF REVENUE.
Editor County Record
In your last weeks issue appeared
an article from the News & Courier,
u 1der the caption: rs the Prohibi-
ton Wave Receding?" This article
was written by some whiskey man
who wishes prohibition to be fail
ure. The whole article went to prove
that the counties which retained
dispensaries were making money by
selling whiskey. have never heard
any ene claim that whiskey selling
was not a money-making business.
Bar-keepers' wives are always pic
tured as dressing in silks and riding
in fine carriages. What we claim is
that Gods curse always rests upon
the money thus made. In years gone
by men considered respectable sold
whiskey and made money thereby;
since that time the public conscience
has been quickened and educated tc
the point of knowing that the busi-
ness is dirty and degrading. Now
no self-respecting man will engage
in the business outright; but is glad
to profit by having some other man
do the work he is too respectable "
to do himself not recognizing the fact
that the man who dispenses the
whiskey by his vote is his agent and
is no more responsible for the thing
than ne himself.
1t is indeed sad fact that the
men of Williamsburg have been so
negligent of their duty in having the
prohibition law enforced, but this
does not prove that the law is not
right and good; it rather proves that
the devil has way of putting men
to sleep and making them feel so
comfortable that they do not wish
to be reused up and put to work.
1t is no uncommon thing to hear
our officers highly complimented as
brave men, able and willing to have
the laws enforced. In some respects
they nave earned this high praise.
We have had mysterious murders
in the county since these men have
held office and by determined effort
the guilty parties have been hunted
down and brought to justice in spite
of the attending mystery. Butt
strange to say, this has not been done
in every case. Some months ago a
poor man was found dead in Black
river swamp. The circumstances Of
his death were indeed horrible. He
was murdered man, as was shown
by the bottle of whiskey found on
his person. That whiskey was the
INSTRUMENT of murder: the lawless
wretch who sold it to him was the
murderer. 1t would not have been
impossible to trace that crime to the
guilty party and have that party
punished. Has anything been done
in the matter? If so,we have never
heard of it. Strange, indeed! Ye
brave, fearless office bearers, what
of these facts? Do you dare lay this
at the door of prohibition can't
prohibit? The time will come
when this terrible wrong will be
laid at other doors.
The prohibition law is right and
right will eventually prevail. We
are not alarmed about that, still we
know that God works through men,
and il the present men of Williams
burg are false to this duty which has
come to them, they may 60 on and
sell whiskey for the present and they
will make make money by it, as
