Death Of Miss Mary {. Truman.

MISS Mary +. Truman, after an
illness of several weeks from typhoid
fever, followed by pneumonia and
other complications, died at her
home east of town at 7.So o'clock
last Friday evening. She was a
most estimable woman, and had
many friends among her neighbors
and acquaintances, who loved her
'on account of her many fine points
of character. The body was car
ried to her old home in Shelby
county by her brother, Rev. &. S.
Truman, Sunday morning, and inter
ment was in the family graveyard
near Chiistiansburg that afternoon.
Her brothers have the deepest sym
paihy of all in this, their great loss.

Don't Kill the Birds.

There has never been known to be
so many flies, bugs aud small insects
of the air as noticed this year. One
of the best explanations is the de-
struction of birds, which are the bes,
air scavengerS, and it is always a
condition that when birds are few
all sorts of pests of the air abound.
Not only do birds remove from the
air all kinds of aggravating insects,
but they protect the trees, flowers
aud shrubbery, fruits and vegetables,
paying for what little fruit and grain
they get by destroying hundreds of
bugs, each, every day. II is said
that some birds destroy as many as
two hundred insects, and untold
hundreds of eggs.

Decoration Exercises.

Memorial Day was appropriately
and effectively observed here Tues
day, in exercises at the court house
at I O'Clock, and the attendance of
visitors was larger than for many
years. The old soldiers numbered
about a score, death having made
inroads in the ranks since last Me
molill Day. Esq. IL. e. MCCrack
en- presided over the meeting, and
after a short talk introduced Rev.
c.. T.. Iethres, who deliverd a patri
otic and touching sermon that was
listened to with great interest and
received much favorable comment.
Addresses were made by Judge I. J.
Sparks and Prof. {. &. Hayden, and
both gentlemen held the closest at
tention of the audience. The music,
under the direction of Mr.. Wm. II.
Reynolds, and with the assistance
of large choir of young folks, was
one of the pleasing parts of the ex-
ercises. At the conclusion of the
exercises at the court house the old
soldiers, accompanied by an honor
airy escort of Boy Scouts, marched
to the cemetery, where flags were
planted at the head of each grave
marking the resting place of civil
war veterans and Spanish American
soldiers, and flowers were strewn
over the mounds. The whole eXer
cises were extremely impressive as il
was realized that the last call would
be made before the old soldiers
would be permitted to meet again IN
such a service of loving remem-
brance.

A Fit Of vThe Blues.

There are certain individuals who
seem to take pride in the fact that
they are the slaves of their moods,
especially of their dark ones. They
will tell you, With resignation that
touches complacency, that they are
subject to ublack fts,r or vthe
blues, " or rdays of melancholia," +" or
whatever may be the pet phrase for
their deplorable lapses from the
normal. Such people never seem to
realize that these moods are only
another outward and visible sign Of
an inward disgrace, and that un-
healthy minds are rarely found in
healthy bodies.
tits hard saying, but "the blues"
may generally be traced to one or
both of two horrid qualIties-greed
and laziness. Nine times out of ten
the low-spirIted person is suffering
from autotoxlcation-from too much
food taken lnto the body and too
little attention paid to elimination,
or to proper exercise.
The human mechanism can take
care of only a certain amount of
food. After that point has been
past it seems to turn sullen in its ef-
foIt to ignore what it cannot help;
and although it is a wonderfully
conducted chemical laboratory up
to the limit of its own needs, it is
not at all amiable about working
overtime. The sesult is that all
superhuous products sent to it arc
permitted to lie round and become
poisonous. This poison rs promptly
taken up by the blood and carried
to all parts of the body, including
the brain. The brain which needs
a plentiful supply of clean blood to
enable it to do its thinking, is natu-
rally indignant at finding poor and
impure blood supplied to it, and
although not actually going on strike,
it refuses to be either pleasant or
reasonable.

Mrs. William Blades Dies in Louisville.

Maude James Blades, wife of Mr.
William Blades, chief deputy United
STATES Marshal of Kentucky, died at
her home in Louisville at 9 O'Clock
Mon day morning, from an attack of
the heart which lasted only a few
hours. Mrs. Blades was a native of
this county, a daughter of DR..
James, and the body was buried in
the family graveyard at Penrod
yesterday morning, being largely
attended. The husband was unable
to attend the burial, as he has been
a sufferer for three weeks from
asthma and grip, and his wife had
been attending him constantly.
Both parties are well known here,
where they have large number of
relatives and friends, and the hus-
band has the sympathy of all in his
sudden sorrow.

HOw Much Fresh Air?

Fresh air, and especially fresh air
in the bedroom at night, has by dint
of inccssant warning and preaching
at last become the COLE of all think
ing people.
Hygiene Is so powerful a goddess
today that even custom and fashion
must bow down to her, in theory if
not in practice. There is danger
here, for when people begin TO
credit themselves with viitues they
do not possess, or mistake decent
theories for proper practise, they
cease to advance in wisdom or health.
Some people take to the fresh air
only as a timid bather takes to the
water. They have heard that it is
good for them, aud they think that
they think it is; but in reality they
detest 1t, and regard it as full oI
threat and peril
In a cTosS-eXamination of any
dozen people, as to what each re-
garded as a ventilated bedroom, the
results would vary from a room too
cold for a self-respecting St. Bernard
dog to sleep in, down to one which
air leaked in from an open crack in
some adjacent bath. room or corrid-
or.
Sometimes inqulrers show by
their questions that they really desire
to do right, hygienically, If only
they knew how to begin. For these
there is motto for their banner
"Be bold, be bold, and evermore be
bold!"
What constitutes bad air in bed
room2 The answer to this is, any
air that has been rebreathed.
To what extent should the window
be kept open IN cold weather for one
in ordinary health? The answer to
this is, to the same extent that il
should be kept open in all weather,
and in all states of health-widel
Furthermore, when it can possibly
be managed, window should be
spelled with an vs. Fortunate is
the sleeper who has one on at least
two sides of his room. Let such a
person fear no drafts, for these are
the friends of mankind. BAD air
and drafts do not live together.
Neither do colds and drafts, hard
as many people find it to believe
this.
1t is not wise to feel cold, neither
is it necessary. 1t stands to reason
that with wide-open windows in
winter, warmer coverings will be
needed. A properly ventilated bed

The Freak Cali Still Alive.

Mr.. X. H. Lyon reports that his
freak calf is growing wonderfully,
and that the absence of its left fore
leg does not appear to detract from
its activities. Last week we report
ed that the calf had been killed, but
Uncle Dicks nerve failed him and he
could not hire any one to do the job,
so he is caring for the little fellow,
and intends to raise it. Hundreds
of people have seen the freak, and
Mr.. Lyon has had several very fat
terlng offers for his prize. He says
he can get good farm from one
party, but the balance-in-cash
amount is not sufficient, and it is
likely that he will keep the wonder
and take the road, showing the
American people the greatest novelty
tha; has been known. Now Is the
time for all good men who have the
necessary qualities Of an advance
agent to apply.

The state primaries have had the
effect of putting political matters to
the front early in the season, and
reminding us of the old days, when
elections were held 10 August, and
the campaigning was done in the
summer. This made it easy to have
a hot canvass, but the changes In
our county have made it possible to
have the political pot boil several
weeks before the November cleo
tions, as now held.
