Madison Fair A Success.

From every standpoint the forty-fifth
annual exhibition of the Madison County
Fair Association was a success. The
was good and the class Of
stock exhibited was equal to that of any
fair held in Central Kentucky this
season. A new feature, which has not
teen considered by the fair associations
for many years, was the poultry show
and the idea of recognizing this valuable
asset of the farm was not amiss, as the
display at the fair last week proved to
be one of the most interesting Of the
many attractions on exhibition. It was
with reluctance that many of the dir
ectors were induced to undertake the
task of organizing fair company, as
the season was so far advanced and
many thought il would be folly to at
tempt to push to successful termina-
ton fair COTTON up on such short
notice. The fair, however, was a sue
cess. Good premiums were paid, good
attendance had. and everybody who
we're so fortunate as to be present spoke
in highest terms Of those who had
charge of the management OF the meet
ing. Especially is great credit due the
President, d. A. McCord. and the Sec.
rotary, j. L. Crntcher, for their uDceas.

FREE REMEDY HELPS CHILDREN

Many a mother has learned of a
way of avoiding sickness in her fam
lily, especially among the children, by
the use of free sample bottle of the
famous laxative, DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup
Pepsin. This offer of the doctors to
send free sample bottle has been re-
sponded to by thousands of women
in all parts of America.
DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin is a
truly wonderful laxative and espe-
cially adapted to the needs of babies
and children because it is pleasant to
taste and no child will refuse il. Then,
it is mild and never gripes. 1t is all
that a child's remedy should be,
though it is a good laxative for the
whole family because it is effective
at all ages. II is not dynamic like
salts, pills and powerful cathartics,
which should not be given to chill
dren under any circumstances.
