We notice the death OF Joseph
Lille occurring October IS. He was
a son OF Col. James and Lucy Nance
Lille, natives of North Carolina.
Col. lanes Lille was a soldier of the
war of 1912; he was at the battle of
New Orleans and also took part IN
the Mexican war. He emiSrate d
from North Carolina to Tennessee
where he lved several years. TO
Col. James and LucI Nance Lille
were born and reared six sons.
Thomas, Mark, Benz amin, Jasper,
Robert and J,seph, three daughters
Sally. Mary and Clara. In ISI9
Col. lanes Lille, with his entire
family, came 10 Kentucky and set
tied IN Muhlenberg county on the
waters of Pond river and in The
neighborhood of Geo. o. Prowse,
Jacob Embler, John Swan Atkins or,
Richard Thompson and John Ovens.
Thomas Lille, the oldest son OF Col.
Lille, married Margaret Short ma

gle.
The family of Col. James Lille arc

We knew this family when they
were in active life; they were al
honest and respectable people anC
good citizens; there are few grand
children of Col. Lille now living il
the county; it seems that the Lii,
family is fading away and those olC

were once associated, some have be

Ventilation of School Rooms.


In an address delivered not long
ago. the health commissioner of
Chicago, speaking on the subject of
ventilation in schools, said that
although good ventilation is impor-
tant tor every one at every age, it is
never so necessary as during the
school years.
All through these years the body
is growing and maturing rapidly, and
physical habits are being estab-
lished. Since whatever material is
formed IN this time will have 10 do
duty through the years of adult life,
it is a bad time to make material
that is below the standard.
The human body may be compar-
ed to a garment. 1t will stand a
great deal of rough wear and tear if
it is made of good material; but if
it is made of shoddy, it will grow
shabby and wear ont quickly, no
matter how we'll it is cared for
That is why the care of children in
their early years Is so important
it is the time TO make material
that will stand the wear and tear of
later hfe. Children who in the
school years are subjected to avoida
ble strain do not always show the ef-
feet Immediately: but years
afterward, when they display small
power of recuperaiio, little resistance
to disease, and great susceptibility
to fatigue, they are paying for the
injustice to which they were subjec-
ted IN the past.
1t has been scientifically proved
that children do not do we'll in badly
ventilated schoolrooms. They are
likely to be pale, nervous, and sub
ject to headache; they catch cold
easily, and take little interest in
their studies. After the windows
have been opened, aud the t9mpcra-
tuTe has been lowered, and the air
made fresh and moist, the same chill
dren, in the same room, with the
same teacher will be different Great
ures; rot only healthier aud freer
from colds and headaches, but
more alert, interested, and ready for
their lessons.
The rel Is from the schools
where this particular expt Tinent has
bcen made and the results carefully
not.d, declare that the change in the
mental capacity and power of the
children to apply themselves was
more marked than the physical
change for the better, althou that,
too, was great.
1-ifhr- ncafrtT- ---s5r0uvr-di-4dcs-
the harm done by poor ventilation
into two kinds-the quick acting or
air-borne infections, and the slow
acting or air-caused conditions.
Among the former he places
influenza, colds, cerebrospinal
meningitis, and various infections,
such as scarlet fever, diphtheria and
measles. Among the latter he
places drowsiness, mental slowness,
headache. lassitude, muscular
flabbipess, anemia, chorea and
irntability.

SUICIDES ESTATE
Is TWENTY-FIVE SNAKES

Baise, Idaho.-Wanted-
to adopt 22 healthy orphan snakes
and two miscellaneous reptiles.
That is the sign that Coroner
Schneider is thinking of hanging out.
He will not give the snakes away, but
would like to sell them.
The snakes were the property OF
Miss Grace Boreland, the snake
charmer with the carnival company
now showing here, who committed
suicide some time Monday night. The
girls lifeless body was found in her
room at the iberia hotel Tuesday af-
ternoon She had taken the con-
tents of a large bottle of chloroform.
The girl is known to have a grand
mother Mrs. Loretta Daily, living in
Portland, and it is thought she has
other relatives living. The coroner
has so far been unable to get into
Communication with her people.
The coroner has temporary charge
of her effects and the disposal of the
snakes is proving a puzzler.

Twenty years ago she married an
aged man by the name of Parker.
This man was reputed to be worth
more than $1,OOO,O00. He died few
years ago, leaving all his wealth TO
Mr.. Abercrombie's aunt. This wealth
was added to by the acquisition OF
several thousand s.cres of land.
Mr.. Abercrombit does not know
how many of his aunt's brothers and
sisters are living, so that he is at
loss to hazard a guess as to how much
he may be entitled to, but he admits
that it "looks good"
The advertisement containing the
glad tidings was read first by James
George who telephoned Mr.. Aber-
! crombie.
! Despite the fact that he appears to
have suddenly come into a fortune
of unknown value, Mr.. Abercrombie
refuses to become unduly excited and
/ assumes the attitude that it may
mean much or it may mean little, and
will not be disappointed in any
event"

RESTORE CRAY HAIR
To NATURAL COLOR
BY Common Garden Sage, &
Simple Remedy for Dandruff,

Falling, Faded, Gray Hair.
The old idea for using sage for
darkening the hair is again coming in
vogue. Our grandmothers used to
have dark, glossy hair at the age of
seventy-five, while our mothers have
white hair before they are fifty Our
grandmothers used to make a "sage
tea" and apply it to their hair. The
tea made their hair soft and glossy
and gradually restored the natural
color 49,
One objection to using such a prep
aration was the trouble of making it.
especially as it had to be made every
two or three days on account of sour
ing quickly This objection has been
overcome. and by asking almost any
first class druggist for Wyeth's Sage
and sulphur Hair Remedy the public
can get a superior preparation of
sage with the admixture of sulphur,
another valuable remedy for hair and
scalp troubles. Daily use of this prep
aratiOn will not only quickly restore
the color of the hair, but will also
stop the hair from falling out and
make it grow
This preparation is offered t. the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and is
recommended by Pendleton Drug Co.
