KEEP THE BOWELS ACTIVE.

No one can keep well with lot of
Impurities blocked up in the system.
The blood must have fresh material
from which to draw its foodAnot
a poisonous mass of waste matter.
See that the bowels are kept ac-
tive and you need never feel i'll or
be liable to disease. The pleasant
way-the gentle yet firm way-to
keep sluggish bowels in good order
is to take DR.. Edwards little sugar
coated Olive Tablets. DR.. Edwards
put fifteen years OF experience into
these tablets They cure torpid
liver. bad breath, pimples and purge
the blood of all impurities. The
Olive Oil in them soothes and heals
wonderfully. All druggists sell them
in 10 and 25 cent packages-to flt

UNABLE To GET PROPER DATA.

Frankfort, Ky, Aug. Rain has
done much damage to the crops IN
all parts of Kentucky. the precipita-
ton being very large, especially in
Frankfort, where 1t was nine inches
last month. according to the monthly
crop report OF NJ. c. Rankin, commits
sioner of agriculture. Mr.. Rankin
says he has tried to get the acreage
OF the principal crops grown in the
state. but has been unable to get re-
ports from most of the counties. The
following is the summary Of his re.
port:
The weather during the month OF
July has been rainy, one Of the larg-
est rainfalls being recorded In many
years. The local weather bureau
showed that the rainfall here during
the month was a little less than nine
inches. In several localities II rained
for the first fourteen days OF the
month. and IN many places there
were eloudbursts that did much dam
age 10 wheat, corn, oats and tobacco.

many requests for the acreage OF the

cure this information, but we have

Gift by American Children.


~T was our last day in Paris,
so we decided to spend it go
ing about the city and make
a sort of review of what we
had already seen. We left
the hotel and wandered
through the Tuilleries Gardens. One
of the first things we noticed was a
high stone pedestal on the top of which
was a life sized equestrian statue of
Lafayette. The inscription on the ped
eStal stated that the statue had been
presented to the French Government by
the school children of the United
States, and paid for by voluntary con-
tributions. 1t certainly was a pleasure
to look at this monument of thankful
ness from our American school chill
dren.
Bird Charmer in Paris.
A little further on we noticed large
crowd collecting and with true Ameri-
can curiosity we hurried forward and
were soon in the front ranks. In the
center was a man seated on a low
chair and surrounded by birds. He
had bread in his hands and the spar
rows would fly up and take it from
him. He called each bird by name
and the one designated would imme-
diately respond. How they were ever
trained 1 could not understand for
wherever he went, all he had to do
was to sit down, whistle a few times
and in a few seconds he would be sur
rounded by birds

THE CHICAGO MOTIFS THEATRE.

Col. Robt. T Motifs, proprietor of
the Pekin Motifs theatre, is certainly
doing things up fine. He is putting
on seven and eight different acts on
a weeks bill and playing to capacity
houses all the time. Most all of the
negro actresses and actors are sum-
mering in Chicago and it is no hard
matter for the managers of the col
ored theaters of that city to get the
very best of colored acts, some OF the
houses are paying as much as $500
per week for a single act. | guess
Chicago is not so bad for the negro
actor.
