T. c. PRESIDENT DE-
MES |. c. Merger
Preparation for Through Run by
Mail Clerk Gives Rumor
Color, However.

Hopkinsville, KY, Sept. L.
While here on his way to Prince
ton in his private car, President
A. B. Newell of the Tennessee
Central railroad, denied the
persistent rumors that his road
would be taken over by the
Illinois Central on Sept. Is.
Il heard the report before
leaving Nashville, but there is
absolutely nothing to it. We
are doing excellently as an
independent line. Our relations
with the Illinois Central are en-
tirely friendly and on a basis
that is mutually satisfactory"
1t is known that mail clerks
on the Illinois Central and Ten
nessee Central have been in
structed to post themselves at
once so as to be qualified for
making through runs from Ev-
ansville, Ind, to Nashville, Tenn.
This fact together with the
presence of a corps of railroad
engineers, who are making sur
veys along the l. c. and T. C..
lines in this region, lends color
to the rumor that changes are to
be made speedily in the operation
of the roads. There is also a
report that that T. C. is trying
to lease the |. c. branch from
this city to Princeton. Presi-
dent Newell and a number,of T.
c. officials left here for the
latter city.

SAFETY AT HOME
According to DR.. Woodward,
health officer for the national
capital, people are safer from
such diseases as typhoid fever
at their homes, where ordinary
sanitary precautions are enfored
than they are at the average
summer resort. He says people
go to the seashore, the mountains
or other places with the inten-
ton of getting pure air, milk
and healthful food. They do
not take into consideration the
sanitary conditions under which
the will is handled and disregard
other conditions for health pre-
servation.
Our inspectors make careful
inquiry into every case of typhoid
fever" said the doctor today,
land go carefully into the history
of the patient. Persons take
their lives into their hands when
they visit resort without know
ing anything of the conditions
existing there as to sanitation.
1t can be conservatively estimat-
ed that 20 per cent of the typhoid
fever cases prevailing in the
District of Columbia at this time
of the year are brought back to
the city after a vacation spent
at some summer resort.

Plan Whirlwind Campaign--Mr.
Elliott, Of Henderson Present at
Meeting.

Henderson Stemming District
Association held an important
meeting at the court house Sat.
urday.
The committee passed resclu-
ton requiring all district COM
mitteemen to make a whirlwind
campaign this week for the pur-
pose of getting as much of the
present crop of tobacco pooled
as they possibly can.
The pool cannot be effected
unless IS per cent. of the crop is
secured, and this must be ac
complished before the district
meeting is held at Henderson on
September the third.
Mr.. William Elliott, of Hen
derson, manager of the organiza-
ton, was present at the meet
ing. The meeting was presided
over by Mr.. F. F. Brown. chair
man of the committee, Mr.. w.
Fl. Parker the chairman-elect,
will assume his duties on Sept. 3.
At the meeting referred TO
above the Hopkins County Board
recommended that the District
Board insert a new clause
in all future contracts of
sale. Commenting on the resolu-
ton, The jacksonville Journal
says:
I'D THE FARMERS
We call attention to the
resolution adopted by the county
committee of the Stemming Dis
trict Association here last Satur-
day, recommending a new clause
to be put in all sale contracts
made with purchasers of the
1910 crops of pooled tobacco.
This resolution is publised in this
issue and should be carefully
read by tobacco growers. Under
its terms the purchasers of
pooled tobacco cannot purchase
any tobacco out of the pool at a
greater price than that paid for
the pooled tobacco without in
creasing the price on all like
grades in their purchase from
the Association.
The resolutian does not in so
many words state this, but in its
ingenious words are given effect
such will be the result. 1t is
well known that the strongest
tobacco buyers of our type of
tobacco have been dealing with
the association each year since
it's organization and will most
likely continue to do so as their
relationship has been very pleas
ant and apparently satisfactory.
Whatever we may say or think
about the Stemming District AS
sociation or the pooling business,
one thing is certain-the man.
agement of the Association
understands how to handle the
tobacco of this district to please
the buyers who deal in it. If
they continue to buy from the
Association with this new con-
tract they will not likely buy
outside tobacco except at a re-
duced price, orat most they will
be careful not to increase the
pool price.
The resolution in full follows:
Be it resolved blythe Hopkins
County Executive Committee of
the Stemming District Tobacco
Association, That we request the
District Executive Committee to
have a clause in the contract for
the sale of any and all of the
1910 crop of tobacco pooled with
said Association STIMULATING in

COLLEGE GIRL
AS HOUSE MAID
How One Girl is Living Happily
at Family Service

A brand new solution of the always
perplexing servant problem is given in
q very frank letter TO the Editor of
Good Housekeeping Magazine, from
which these extracts are reproduced:
when my friends learn that 1 have
as a helper a girl who has been two
years i'm a good college, they sigh, in
mingled envy and sympathy, and in
variably ask: How do you manage
about her eating at the table@ As this
always seems the crucial point with
lady help some may be interested to
know how the problem has worked
itself out in our household.
when my former maid was about
10 be married, one of her church ac-
quaintances. a girl of far greater re-
fnement and education came to con-
suit me about the place. She knew that
I preferred to do most of the cooking
myself and that someone was hired
to do the heavier washing and scrub
bing. / explained that ] should ex-
pect her 10 do the rest Of the house
work and to assist with the children.
] told her frankly that while the work
was not physically hard, some features
about such position might prove dis
couraging to a girl of her type. She
insisted that she wanted to earn money
in some way and that she was so lone
" in the absence Of her father that
the idea of home life appealed to her

OIL You Trading Stampl
There's many a grave on the Hillside,
Where the sentinel angel tramps.
That is filled with some good old ladies,
Who collected Trading stam-s.
They raced through the stormy snow
drifts,
They raced when the ground was damp,
They sickened and died in honor,
OF the poor old Trading Stamp.
Some died for few pink dishes,
Some died for a Morris Chair,
But alasi on the silent Hillside.
We know that the crowd is there.
So I'll write them this little tribute.
And hope that the world won't laugh.
At the deep and proiound emotion,
In this beautiful epitaph.
Here lies on the client Hillside.
Where the vigilant sentinel tramps,
A score OF heroic women,
Who collected Trading Stamps.
They died for something for nothing,
They died in the strenuous game.
Yet. leaving there Stamps behind them
They got thers juzf- he same
