TWO BOYS DROWN
IN MISSISSIPPI

HICKMAN, KY, June 30.-An aw-
full tragedy happened here this af-
ternoon, when Will Houston, aged IA,
and Roy Tucker aged 10, were both
drowned in the Mississippi river.
Several small boys had crossed the
river to bar on the Missouri side.
Roy Tucker couldn't swim and was
wading around, when he got out too
far and stepped off into water forty
feet deep. Will Houston saw him
made a dash to get to him and save
him and Owed off. He could swim
but neither ever came to the surface.
1t is supposed Tucker clung to him,
holding him down, and the under-cur-
rent carried them on. Both boys
were well known. The river has
been dragged continuously, but NTH

MURDERS HIS
WIFE THEN SUICIDES

TRACY CITY, Tenn, July s.
John Crabtree, a resident of this
place, killed his wife and himself here
abou 10 o'clock Sunday morning.
Reports Of gun shots aroused the
people and when the residence of
Crabtree was suspected as the scene
Of the shooting and an investigation
made, Crabtree and his wife were
found in their house dead. A shot
gun had been used, which was lying
on the floor. 1t is supposed that
Crabtree placed the gun close to his
wife's head and fired, and then the
gun butt downward on the floor, hold
ing his head close to the muzzle,
when he shot himself, as both their
heads were blown off. The spectac-
lie wkas CHASTITY, as both bodies were
covered with blood and their brains
were tsrewn over the floor and
against the walls of the building.
The cause of the tragedy is sup
posed to have been infidelity of Crab
trees wife. A few weeks ago she
eloped with another man to go to st.
Louis, but they were arrested in the
Union depot in Nashville, after hav-
ing purchased tickets for that place.
However, that matter was adjusted,
She returning to her home and he
going to his family at South Pitts
burg. But the man is in Track City
again, and the supposition Is that
fear of a repetition of the previous
trouble led Crabtree to commit the
homicide and suicide.

Honest Medicines Versus Fakes

Honest Medicines Versus Fakes
President Taft's recent message
suggesting an amendment to the
Pure Food and Drugs law in it's rela.
ton to Prepared Medicines, does not
refer to such standard medicines as
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
and Foley Kidney Pills. both of which
are true medicines carefully COM
pounded Of ingredients whose uedi-
cinal qualities are recognized by the
medical profession itself as the best
known remedial agents for the dis
eases they are intended to counter
act. For over three decades Foley's
Honey and Tar Compound has been
standard remedy for coughs, colds
and affections of the throat, chest
and lungs for children and for grown
persons, and it retains to day its
pre-eminence above all other prepare
tons of it's kind. Foley Kidney Pills
are equally effective and meritorious.

We wish to play at battle. In the old days

those whom we employ to play for us

actor.
A painter paints for US a picture OF the
battle as 1t appears to his imagination;
poet writes a poem about Il; sculptor

an actor dons his imitation armor and
struts across the stage that we may see
our hero in action. We stand spellbound
before the picture Of the painter, though
we know perfectly wen that he knows no
more OF how the battle really looked than
we ourselves knew. We read and sigh over
the impassioned words in which the poet,
in the character OF the hero, cries out for
