Now Easily Acquired

"A skin of blended snow, cream and
rose'' is the way an Ohio correspondent
describes her newly acquired complex
ion. She is one who has adopted mer-
colized wax in place of cosmetics, mas
sage. steaming and other methods.
Many who have tried this marvellous
wax report that It's effects are quite
different from those of any other
treatment. 1t produces a complexion
of exquisite girlish naturalness, rather
than one bearing evidence of having
been artificially made over" One

suit of gradually absorbing dead par
ticles of surface skin. permitting the
younger, healthier skin beneath to
show itself and giving its pores 4
chance to breathe. Mercolized wax,

inal one ounce package, is put on at
night like cold cream and washed off
in the morning.

SELL BOSTON RED SOx
Club May Change Hands-DeaI Is
Pending.

Boston, Oct. 2S.-Half ownership in
the Boston Red Sox club will pass
into new hands within a few days or
the prospective new stockholders may
come in under certain conditions with
less than half Of the 1000 shares. Ne
gotiations for the sale of part of the
club have been going on for over a
month.
Attorney Charles H. Hill, who has
already acted several times as agent
in the purchase and sale of major
league franchises, is believed to repre-
sent the prospective new owners of
stock in the Boston club, whose names
are withheld for the time being.
Mr.. Hill, when seen today, would
neither affirm nor deny he was up to
his tricks again. 1t is known here
that General Taylor, one of the large
stockholders of the club, is DESTROYS of
limiting his investment in baseball. As
the Taylors hold 500 shares of the COM
mon stock of the Red Sox club, which
stock carries the voting power, it is safe
to assume that the Taylor end has been
the objective of Attorney Hills dipIo-
macy.

A SERIOUS CHARGE.
Two Boys Arrested for the Theft
of an Automobile, Holding
Up the Chauffeur.

The following dispatch from Glas-
gov, dated October II, appeared in
the Louisville Post. DR.. L. E. Williams,
who owns the auto, is son of Ed.
z. T. Williams, and Cyrus Williams
is a son of Mr.. Luther Williams, Mont
pelier, this county, and is well-known
here: Roy Smith, of Louisville, and
Russell Frederick, of 3uechel, Jeffer-
son county, created great excitement
in Glasgow last night when they were
arrested, charged with stealing an
automobile owned by DR. L. E. Will
liamS. IL was also charged that they
had robbed and bound to a tree his
nephew, Cyrus Williams.
Young Frederick struck town about
dusk last evening and made trade
with DR.. Williams to send him to
ScottSville in his auto. The county
authorities claim that when he and
the chauffeur reached lonely place
they were joined by Roy Smith, who
drew a pistol on the chauffeur and
made him throw up his hands. Smith
says that, after robbing him, they
bound him to a tree and proceeded on
their way.
A short time later Williams called
to opossem hunters who were passing
and they cut him loose and assisted
him to telephone, where he notified
the Glasgow authorities of the crime.
Sheriff S. t. Button telephoned the
Scottsville authorities, who started
with posse and captured the boys
and brought them back to Glasgow.
They were placed in Jail and will be
given their examining trial Saturday.
The youths say they left their home
last Monday in a one. horse surrey to
go to Florida. They decided when
they reached here it would take them
too long to make the trip, and they
would try another way.
Frederick claims he is eighteen years
af age, but looks to be man.
Roy Smith is the son of a W..
Smith, a foreman for Mcclure Hoke,
the road contractor, and is about
twenty years of age. Russell Freder-
lex is the son of Chris Frederick, a
farmer of Buechel.
According to Mr.. Frederick, the
boys left Buechel Monday night driv-
ing Mr.. Frederick's rig. They inform
ed several companions that they were
going to Virginia. Mr.. Frederick be-
gan communicating with Barren coun-
ty officials this morning to secure the
return of his horse and buggy.

The Virtue Of Kindness.

Great men are generally at heart
kind men. When the great and be-
loved Washington laid his shoulder to
the wheel of the heavily laden cart.
and helped to roll it out of the mud
hole in the road, it must have been
his deep sympathy of heart for his
fellow man in trouble, which led him
to do so, and deep down in our in
most heart we love the man with such
kindness of heart.
We may find some such kindness of
heart in some of our own neighborS,
and it is our purpose to preserve in a
measure in this brief and true story
the fragrance of some of these flowers,
"Born to blush unSeen," lest they
"WaSte their fragrance on the desert
air.
A few weeks ago little Seyen-year-
old lad, was sent DO his parents to the
grocer'S for package of sugar. On
his way toward home, the package OF
sugar slipped from his hands, fell upon
the pavement, bursting the paper bag,
and scattering the sugar. The little
fellow began to cry when h e
found that he couldn't gather up the
sugar in the torn paper bag, and that
he must go home without it. Now it
happened that a gentleman was trav-
cling the same way only few steps
behind and carrying a similar package
of Sugar, and seeing the little lad in
trouble over his scattered sugar, he
spoke kindly to him, telling him not
to cry any more, and gave him his own
unbroken package of sugar telling
him to take it home and that would
make it all right. The little fellow
went on his way happy in knowing
that he had found friend to help
him in his time of trouble. And for
day to come, not only will the little
boy remember the deed of kindness
with gratitude to his benefactor, but
alo, his parents will appreciate for all
time the kindness shown their little
son, cherishing the hope that he may
grow into manhood, having the virtue
of kindness as a moral resource.
