A RAILROAD FOR

suddenly become very bright. An en-
gineering corpse of fifteen men reach
eel buchanan yesterday and located

the home OF James Nichols. It Is
stated that the corps of engineers,
which are believed TO be from the
offices of the Virginian Railway,
will begin at the mouth OF Garden
Creek, and locate road down
Louisa Fork OF the Big Sandy river,
passing Grundy twelve miles below
the mouth of Garden Creek. Another
corps of engineers will start mt Pike
Vile, Ky, at the same time and
meet the corps first mentioned at
some point i'm Buchanan county. IL
is stated that the survey began yes
terdny.
The location OF the line of road
down | ouisa FORK OF Big Sandy Is
practically through the center OF
Buchanan county. All the waters OF
buchanan tlow into Louisa Fork.

PRESERVING HEALTH OF CHILD
Possible 70 Avoid the Ordinary Infan-
allie Diseases, That Have Been
Considered Necessary.

The idea prevails among many peo-
pie that children must have tho er-
dinary diseases of childhood. and that
II is better to expose them learly in
life SO as to get through with them
ns soon as possible. 1t is anFold-fash-
ioned belief. and the object today 10
to protect children from infection In
stead Of exposing them to It. AS chill
dren are more susceptible to varia-
tions In temperature than aduitr, so
are they also more apt to contract
certain diseases. The surest way to
protect them against iAfection is not
to oxpose them. This is extremely
diiicult where there are large gather
ings OF children, such as at public
schools or in thicliy populated dis
tricts, but If the health OF child is
maintained by pursuing proper by
6ienic measures as to food. bathing,
sleep. fresh air. anG sunshine It is safe
70 say that II runs a small risk OF
contracting ons OF the infectious dis
eases, even when exposed to It. We
should strive to develop the tissues OF
the body by proper modes OF living to
such degree that exposure to UNI
favorable conditions will be met with
resistance.

Of votes each candidate received q
Secretary linn expected to have ali

Of tha county election boards have
failed to mail the votes. Mr.. Linn
was anxious to issue certificates Of

There Is no law governing the time
