Thank for the blindnessof the
presidential blindness which, auto
matically and conclusively, is open
ing the eyes ..even of his own
party following to the fact of an
absolute failure of a most anna
BILE gentleman and eminent jnrist
in an executive position. Insisting
Beverly, on starting out to round
up the faithful, President Taft
insisted to the republicans of
Massachusetts that it was their
duty, pitch their state canvass on
national lines, in view of impotnce
of the presidential election of the
next year and he started on
his tour of destruction.
Now he hrs detemied to do it
some more. 1t is announced from
ogden utah. that the presiden-
tial determination is to add some
5000 more miles to his trip
with the 5000 but adding to the
other thousand in fixing the
minds of the good people of the
country on the necessity of elect
ing all Democratic governors
yerr and additional Democratic
congressing next year. That
settled it!Also, it is the duty of
charity to suggust that the de
termination of judge o, Rear to
avoid detional politics is due to
his keen appreciation of abe fact
that he is doomed to political
slaughter equally with the
president, and possiblb.a little
more so and certainly year in
advance.-Owensboro Messenger

A Pretty Apron.

A bewitching little apron that
can be made in half an hour con-
sistS of two bandana handker-
chiefs. Cut a corner from one
handkerchief, leaving a bias
space of 5 inches for the waist
line. This brings a point at the
bottom and one at each side.
Hem or pink the cut portion.
Binding wears better. Cut out
of the center of the other hand
kerchief a hole, round or oblong,
and big enough to slip over the
head easily. Hem or face the
opening. Lap one corner over
the skirt portion far enough to
cover the waist-band. Fasten
securely at the edges. Attach
ribbon ties to match some color
in the handkerchief, and the
apron is finished with most be-
coming yoke waist. pointed at
bottom and on the shoulders and
in the back. If the yoke slips
forward, the point, in the back
can be pinned to the bow of the
ties. The style. however, is
warranted to make the stoutest
figure look trim and shapely.

Lexington. One of the boldest
the bodies train robberies ever
perpetrated in this section of the
country occurred near this city
when a freight train on the Lou
isville & Nashville railroad was
robbed under the noses of two
special detectives.
The train was proceeding from
Louisville to Lexington. When
near a small station between this
city and Frankfort, several men
appeared from the side of the
road and boarded it. They
'entered a car containing mer-
chandise and began throwing off
boxes. These boxes were picked
up by other men who followed
the train with a horse and wagon
Finally the train men gave the
alarm and the dectives who
were Stationed in a caboose, rush
ed out. They were too late
however. as the robbers had leap
ed from the car, and made off
in the darkness. There is no
clew to the identity of the ban

Saturday. November IS, Is the Day
for the judges to Decide.

Those in charge of the contest have
decided on the following plans, and
therefore request every contestant to
promptly comply. 1t is as follows:
Two men have been selected in each
voting precinct, to measure the ground
and weigh the corn. and send measure
ment of ground and weight of corn to
Judge Moss, at the earliest day posi-
BILE. If any contestant withdraws from
the quantity contest on the half acre,
it will not be necessary for him to have

exhibit on the 18th. and every. boy who
got seed furnished by Judge Moss is
expected here with samples of corn on
that day. Each boy is to show ten ears
of corn. Should the committee fail to
collect the full amount of premiums,
then each winner in the contest will
bear his proportional loss. The corn to
be exhibited in the court, house, and to
remain on exhibition in Judge Moss
office, with name and address of pro-
ducers.
In selecting the men to determine the
amount of land and weight of corn. the
committee has selected good men, and
while the performance of this work will
require some time without money COM
pensation, yet it is trusted and believed
that every man will be faithful and

scribed by the two banks and business
men in this town, with the exception of
few dollars from good farmers. Re-

Bread Without Flour.

In France bread has been made
without flour in a machine that

wheat grain as it enters the ma
chine. at the same time accom-
modating only the pulverized
wheat at the exit.
The wheat is prepared by a
thorough washing, after which
operation about a pint of tepid
water to a pound Of grain is add
ed, the whole mixture being al
lowed to stand some six hours.
Then the grains of wheat have
swollen to twice their ordinary
size. The mixture is then treat

poured into the machine. 1t falls

Bread made by this process
contains a succession of holes

proach the crust, which is thin.
The odor given off is said to be
