Rams LAWRENCE.

II should be understood clearly
and emphatically, now and forever,
that General Marse Henri Lawrence
is excusable for his refusal to sup
port John X. Hendrick for governor,
because he made such entangling
financial alliances with Senator Nc
Creary that he cannot now turn him
loose, even II he desired to do SO.
General Marse Henri is the campaign
manager in the First congressional
district for Senator McCreary and
the distributor of his campaign fund
in this district. We know that every
paper that announced McCreary by
reproducing the Jim Lemon Mayfield
Messenger article got from $50 to
5000 for it and extras--which left
something like 1000 out OF the s.
600 for the Cadiz Record--Mr. Law
rence's paper-all of which puts the
5 mark on Marse Henri.-Smithlan

Personal JOURNALISM

The Third district congressional
race has reached the point of per-
sonalities. at least, among Bowling
Green newspapers. and Ed Leigh's
Messenger said Saturday:
Gentlemen of the Democratic
campaign committee. come clean
now. We had innocently supposed
that the letter published by The Mes
senger from farmer and asking r.
Y. Thomas series of questions was
spontaneous outburst But accord.
ing to the News, the letter was
banded about Democratic head
quarters for some time and finally
ordered sent to the post Office. Farm
ers who write letters to congressman
don't usually send them by way OF
Democratic headquarters. but
through the postoffice. AS the News
says, the supreme question of the
hour, overshadowing the tariff and
last weeks grocery bill is this. "Who
lied?"-Third District Review
Mr.. Scott has known the editor
of the Messenger much longer than
he has known the editor Of the News.
and he knows that the editor of the
Messenger would never violate the
ethics of the profession. The editor
OF the Messenger told an absolutely
straight story about the Donaldson
letter, as Mr.. Scott could have found
out upon even the slightest invesiga-
ton. II. therefore. he is the man
that he has the right to be by birth
and education he will publish the
truth about this matter in his next
issue"

INSECT RESISTANCE.
No Such Thing as Any Animal Having
More Than One Life.

All animals have the power to re-
cover from injury occasioned by shock
from being stunned. Insects are in
no sense an exception to this, and
most Of them possess what has been
called tenacity of life to a remarkable
degree. y butterfly WILL sail away with
a pin through its body, an. ant will go
fioundering around after being cut in
two, and all insects will quickly re-
cover from blow, even If such may
dent or break their external coverings.
In such cases the inside parts are
mostly out Of use for a short time.
somewhat similar to the case of your
arm when you have struck the funny
bone" or to your foot when it is
"asleep," But after a few moments
rest the wasp can again resume its
actions.
A wasp is well armored. Its exterior
covering is hard and almost unyield-
Ing. When it is struck a severe blow
the soft, delicate inner parts yield to
the impact; the nerves and muscular
tissues cannot operate in unison, and
the insect may be said TO have been
rendered unconscious as well as inca
pable, for the mind" actions depend
upon its entire nervous system.
But there is no such thing as an ami
mails having more than one life. When
crushed, dismembered. poisoned or
Gnethcrcd beyond recovery, when its.
vital organs are injured so that they
cannot again resume their regular
uses, an insect will die-not in appear
ance, but really so. And this may re-
suit from the wearing out Of its active
vital organism. which may be called
old age, after sometimes only a few
days or weeks Of life. Its one life has
then been terminated beyond any
doubt.-St. Nicholas.
The Hartford herald., 1910-07-13
Notice TO Christian Scientists.

The rather peuculiar wording of a
notice that has been appearing in pa
pers throughout the State, requir-
ing those who would practice the
healing art in any of the phases to
appear at theArmory inLouisvile and
stand medical examination and ob-
tain a certificate from the Examin-
ers, and the more peculiar state
ments that, This examination will
include every sect who desires to
practice the healing art in any OF its
branches and that mo one can be
a legal practitioner without this GER
tificate," would seem to imply that
Christian Science practitioners must
submit to medical examination by
board of physicians and obtain
certificate from them before they
can practice healing without becom-

ing violators of the law, which | de-
sire to say is not the case.
Six years ago in Kentucky, certain
doctors presented a bill to the Ken
tuoky Legislature mIEi!r it unlaw-
full to practice Christian Science
in Kentucky without having first OBJ
tanned a certificate of permission
from the doctors, but the ommittee
to whom the bill was referred, after
listening to several witnesses who
testified to having been healed by
Christian Science, one of consump-
tion, one of malignant cancer, and
one of the morphine habit of eight
years standing, promptly inserted
into the doctors bill the following
amendment, viz: This act shall
not apply to the practice of Chris
tian Science; and so the law stands
on the statute books of Kentucky to-
day.
