YOUNG VIRGINIA ARTIST.

Miss Virginia Wood is one of the
very youngest and most talented of
American women artists. Like many
daughters Of the Old Dominion, she
migrated a few years ago to New
York city, where she soon came to
the fore. In her work Miss Wood
employs either chalks or charcoal ;
and she has been so exceptionally
successful as a portraitist that her
services are almost continually in
demand by women of fashion and
wealth. Still on the sunny side of
twenty-five, Miss Wood Of Virginia
and New York is an extremely pref
ty girl, with an animated manner
and possessed of many qualities
which make her socially popular.

Lancaster, Mo-, Sept. 81
Former Gov. Folk addressed
1000 Democrats of Schuyler
county here today in the City
Park. lie urged the election of
Elliott w. Major and the entire
Democratic State ticket.
He praised Woodrow Wilson by
saying that he is the best equip
ped for the office of President
since Thomas jefferson. He spoke
of Wilson s moral courage illus
trated by his fight against Smith
of New Jersey.
"Thc victory of Gov. Wilson, y
said Mr.. Folk, "in defeating
Smith, should be warning to all
privilege-scrving bosses that their
reign is over and the rule of the
people has begun under the
leadership of Woodrow Wilson as
captain of a newborn Dcmocra-
cy. If he keeps up the fight
against the domination of the
powers that prey in party and
public affairs, he will give the ma
ton Il new birth of freedom. "
Gov. Folk predicted that Gov.
Wilson will carry -fourths of
the States and that the Democrats
will carry Missouri by $4,000 plu-
rality.

CONCERNING MEDICINE,

If doctors prescription is not
entirely used, the remainder should
be thrown away, bearing in mind
that, if liquid, the bottle should be
emptied and washed. Not one chance
in a hundred would,ever necessitate
the use Of the medicine or the same
combination of drugs, unless it be
in the form of a linament or some
external remedy, which should be
properly labeled. Most medicines do
not keep well, and, if unnecessary
bottles are kept in the medicine cab
met, mistakes are more apt to be
made, and confusion results. The
