are finished of with silk cord, and,

For ordinary use upon the dressing
table or for travelling purposes, case
of this kind Is always handy and helps
to keep the brushes clean and free

Bully For "Billy."

Louisville Courier-Journal: Down
in Benton county. Ark, last year a
15-year-old boy raised fifty bushels
of corn on an acre Of dry, flinty, hill
side. He plowed the ground with a
small pillow which he manufactured
himself out of discarded scrap iron
at a country blacksmith shop. In
cidentally the motive power of the
plow was billy goat.
This boy did not belong to any
corn club and did not use any scien-
tific methods of cultivating his land.
but he grew more corn on his acre
of rough ground than many of the
nearby farmers who used up-to-date
implements and who prided them
selves on their corn growing ability.
The boy explained his crop to his
astonished neighbors at harvest
time by saying that he continually
worked his corn. The state commits
sioner of agriculture heard of his
accomplishment and this year has
supplied him with the best seed corn
TO be obtained. The boy is going at
ter a record of 100 bushels to the
acre and he probably will make it if
the goat holds out. The commits
sioner of agriculture offered to fur
nish him with a horse or a mule, but
the offer was declined with thanks
and the pillow is being operated by
goat power as heretofore. If this
years crop amounts to as much as
much as that Of last year the boy is
to be taken to the Arkansas state
fair to display his queer farming out
fit along with samples of his crop.
The achievement of this mountain
boy and his goat should be worth a
good deal to the farmers of Arkan-
sas in the way of an object lesson.
1t is in no way an example of pro-
gressive agriculture, but it is a testi-
monial to the Importance of sticking
to the job. 1t shows that energy and
perseverance can work wonders
even in the absence of ordinary fa.
cilities and modern means of oper-
alton.

Owls Become Pest.

Waverly, Iowa, July 3.-In days
gone by night owls were seen occa-
sionally about town 1--WE mean the
regular flying owls, not those that
walk the Streets, but not until this
year have they become so numerous
as to be a nuisance. In several parts
of the city they may be seen in large
numbers and they make the night
hideous with their weird cries, which
resemble a child in distress. They
are also destroying other birds and
robbing the nests of eggs, so that
the song birds have left for other
parts. We have been told that some
of our citizens have asked for per-
mission to shoot the owls and if the
request is granted there will be some
good hunting inside the city limits
for some time to come. Owls are
not protected by the game laws and
all that is necessary to kill them is
to get permission to use firearms
within the city and be able to shoot
straight, but be careful that no other
birds are killed for you might get
yourself into serious trouble if you
should kill any of those that are
protected by law.

selves a few years ago, and we doubt
if so much can be seen anywhere in
the world in the same length of
time as this identical trip affords.

Garden Truck hr Weighf.

Garden truck of all kinds is being
sold by weight in Sioux City and
there and in several other cities
eggs are disposed of by the pound.
Commenting on this the Burlington
Hawkeye says: Perhaps everything
that can be weighed ought to be sold
by weight. 1t surely seems the right
thing for the buyer, and what bene-
fits the buyer ought to benefit the
seller, and if it does not, the wise
seller will still look pleasant and
will smilingly sing the praises of the
innovation. 1t seems the only way
to arrive at some standard, at some
basis. And when everything is sold
by weight it will simplify the in
spection, as the inspectors will not
have to concern themselves with
bundles, packages, boxes, ETC., but
will have to watch the scales and
the quality Of the stuff offered only.

THE LECTURE COURSE.
DEBORAH Lyceum Bureau Engages
Splendid List of Talent for
Coming Season.

For some time past the DEBORAH
Lyceum Bureau has been securing
the country to obtain a list of talent
for it's coming lecture course which
would include entertainments which
have never been here, and at the
same time some of the very best
talent obtainable. The result is a
selection that appears to be an adj
mirable one, and the anticipation Is
that the coming lecture course next
fall and winter will be as enjoyable
as any ever given in DEBORAH.
Hon. ]. Frank Hanly, former gov
ernor of Indiana, and one OF the
most notable platform speakers now
before the people, heads the list,
while Strickland Gillian, the most
popular humorist in America today,
is a close second Charles F. Under
hill, delineator, in his character rep
reservations, has probably no equal,
and will prove a popular number.
DR.. William A. Colledge, world
traveller, author and educator, will
describe his experiences in the Afri-
can interior with Henry M. Stanley,
which will be a novel number for
our people. The Orpheans have been
engaged as the musical number, a
male quartette of international repu-
tation.
The future of the lecture course
in De corah depends upon the patron-
age accorded the coming course.
During the past two or three years,
the surplus gained in former courses
has been drawn on to meet expenses,
as these courses have not paid out.
To make this course pay every seat
in the opera house must be sold for
the course The committee hopes
that the people will improve the OPP
portunity to hear such splendid tai
ent at such a low figure.

Honest Medicines Versus Fakes.

President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the
Pure Food and Drugs law in it's re-
lation to Prepared Medicines, does
not refer to such standard medicines
as Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
and Foley's Kidney Pills, both of
which are true medicines carefully
compounded of ingredients whose
medicinal qualities are recognized by
the medical profession itself as the
best known remedial agents for the
diseases they are intended to coun-
teract. For over three decades
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
has been a standard remedy for
coughs, colds and affections of the
throat, chest and lungs for children
and for grown persons, and it re-
tains today its pre-eminence above
all other preparations of its kind.
Foley Kidney Pills are equally effec-
tive and meritorious. r. A. Eng

BOOZE IN BIG QUANTITIES.
Approximately 10000 Gallons OF
Liquor is Shipped Annually
to Prohibition States.

Approximately 10000 gallons of
liquor are shipped by express, prin-
cipally from mail order houses, di-
rect to consumers in prohibition
states.
This was developed in an inquiry
conducted by the interstate COM
merce commission recently, into pro-
posed changes in express classified
tions which resulted in an advance
of rates on packages containing liq-
uors.
The commission held that the liq-
uor containers should be packed in
corrugated paper cartons but the
charge was unreasonable and dis
elimination against stone jars also
was unreasonable. 1T was the spread
of the prohibition movement" the
opinion says, that gave vitality to
this character of traffic in liquor.
With state wide prohibition came
the interstate traffic in liquor. The
decision of the supreme court that
this traffic was interstate and, there
fore superior to interference by the
state governments gave the industry
a tremendous excuse and established
the express companies as the carriers
of practically the whole of this traf-
fic.'
Among the shipping points men,
toned, nearly all southern, is Cairo,
Illinois, which ships 100000 gallons
annually.

Suit Against Steel Corporation.

The filing of the governments suit
against the United States Steel Corpc-
ration and it's subsidiary was
a bombshell to official Washington. and
marks the beginning of President
Taft's avowed policy of pushing cases
this winter against all concerns now
operating in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law.
Special agents of the Department of
Justice have been gathering evidence
to be used in the suit for dissolution
during the past three years and this
evidence is supplemented by the find
ings of the Stanley committee of the
House of Representatives, which has
been conducting an independent in
vestigation.
Following as it does the def of the
Steel Trust officials under the lead of
Pierpont Morgan a month or so age
when the rumor was first circulated, a
long drawn out legal battle is expect
ed. 1t may take from three to five
years to push the case through the
various courts until a final decree is
rendered by the United States Su-
preme Court to which tribunal, it is
the announced intention Of both parties
in the suit, to carry the case iir espec-
tive of the decisions If the lower
courts.
The nost surprising information
connected with the case was the fact
that Former Secretary of War Dickin-
son had prepared the brief. 1t had
been STATED officially at the Depart
nent of Justice that the investigation
of the steel combine was in charge of
Solicitor General Lehman, and al
though it is a fact that he has done a
great share of the work in the prepar-
alton of the case, Mr.. Lehmann's name
does not appear.
The significance of the omission is
asserted in some quarters to be that
the administration plans to put the
Solicitor General on the Supreme
Court bench as a successor to the late
Justice Harlan. and that under these
circumstances his name is not drawn

Planned MOrgan's Escape.

The unwilling of Gen. John H. Nor
gan's statue in Lexington a few
weeks ago. saws a dispatch from
jacksonville, has called attention of
the pbulic of some others, yet surviv-
ing. who followed that striking and
picturesque chieftian. On the streets
of Madisonville daily is seer a man
who was intimately lei to the great
General, and one of the most noted of
Morgan's tsubUrdinate officers-Capt,.
l.. D. fHochersmith, who commanded
Company G of Morgan's Brigade. and
who was at the close of the war a
lieutenant Colonel. He is hale and
hearty despite his years.
Capt. Hochersmith was born in Law
renceburg, KY. in 1888, but his
parents soon settled in Louisville,
where he spent his boyhood days.
Here he worked as a painter with his
father. Soon firing of this trade. he
served as an apprentice with Charles
Weaver. brick contractor, and at one
time Mayor of Louisville. Moving to
Madisonville in 1856, he worked at his
trade until the breaking out Uf the
war in 1852 when he enlisted under
Col. Adam johnson, whose regiment
became a part of Morgan's command.
Capt. HOchersmith was with Morgan
in every engagement from the time he
enlisted until they were captured and
escaped from the penitentiary at
Columbus, O.. He was one of the
brave hunrded who followed Col. Bob
Martin in that famous raid and charge
near Black Shops. Tenn. With these
picked men, Col. Martin dashed upon a
detachment of 6, 900 Fedreals and they,
thinking that Morgan's whole army
was upon them, not discovering thier
mistake until too late, fled in con-
fusion, leaving supplies and ammu.
milton behind.
Many stories have been written of
Murgan's extraordinary escape but it
is said that it was Capt. Hochresmith
who planned and superintendent the
whole affair. Being a brick mason, he
studied the construction of the prison
in detail. Capts. Bennett and McGee
were taken into his confidence and as
soon as the plan became feasible they
laid it before Gen. Moragn. 1t requir-
ed almost a month of secret carving
through walls and under the Luilding
before the escape was effected.
