Mebo Notes

The burning of the Imperial to-
bacco factory at Nebo Thursday
night was the death blow to the
prosperity of our little town, its the
first time in seventy-flve years that
the tobacco business has failed TO
operate in Neoo. All the business
men are blue, nothing doing now.
This is the third big factory to burn
IN Nebo and all can be traced to
carelessness. At one time Nebo h ad
five tobacco factories running full
handed Those were the good old
days, when fortunes were made and
fortunes were lost IN the tobacco
business at Nebo. This is consider
ed to be one among the best places
in the state to put up tobacco.
Thousands of hogsheads of tobacco
have been shipped from Nebo and
now to cut us out of the business
hurts our town. Our business men
will lose trade, they have done a
credit business, taking mortgages on
crops that have been pooled and
can't be sold, not even by a sheriff.
The cropper is damned, can't get
any more credit, the merchants and
grocerers are jammed, can't get hi
money and so it goes, but we live N
hopes IL we die In despair, and better
times will come. There is tall now
of coal mine being opened at Ne
DO, somebody wants to be optimistic
l reckon and wants to revive our
sinking hearts with lies. We've
heard that tale before, tell US some-
thing else.
The burning of the big imperial is
believed by the better class of peo-
pie to be accidentIlv and not of in
cindiary origin.
Miss Marie Crows, has bad case
of typhoid fever. DR.. Crow, of

DON'T sCOLD CROSS,
IRRITABLE CHILDREN
See If Tongue Is Coated. Stomach Sour
And Bowels Waste CIogged

Children dearly love to take
delicious Syrup of Figs" and
nothing else cleans and regulates
their tender little stomachs, liver
and 80 feet of bowels so prompt
ly and thoroughly.
Children get bilious and con-
stipated just like grown-ups.
Then they get sick, the tongue is
coated, stomach sour, breath bad
they DON'T eat or rest well /; they
become feverish, cross, irritable,
and don't want to play. Listen
Mothers-for your child's sake
don't force the little one to
swallow nauseating castor oil,
violel calomel or harsh irritants
like Cathartic pills. A teaspoon
full of Syrup of Figs will
have your child smiling and hap
by again in just a few hours.
Syrup of Figs will gently clean,
sweeten and regulate the stom-
ach, make the liver active and
move on aud out of the bowels
all the constipated matter, the
sour bile, the foul, clogged.up
waste and poisons, without caus-
ing cramps or gripping.
With Syrup of Figs you are
not drugging or injuring your
children. Being composed en-
tirely of luscious figs, SIENNA and
aromatics it cannot be harmful.

ages and for grown-ups plainly

COMPULSORY T.
ATTENDANCE.
Excellent Record OF Attendance
In Darlington Graded And
High School
PARENTS COOPERATE AND Au.
THORlTIEs HOPE NO pROSECU-.
TONS MAY BE NECESSARY

Regular monthly meeting of
the Burlington School Board was
held Saturday night, with ex.
cellent reports from the school.
Perhaps the most encouraging
feature of the situation now is
the fact that attendance for jan
uary was about fifteen, percent
better than for January a year
ago. This reflects strongly the,
good work done by the faculty..
the School Board and the press
toward agitating and enforcing
Kentucky's new compulsory at
tendance law and the child labor
law. The compulsory attendance
law puts heavy penalties upon
all parents who do not keep their
children continuously in some
school between the ages of seven
and twelve. The child labor law,
with strict penalties, prohibits
the employment in any-galnful
pursuit of any child under the
age of fourteen and provides
that no child under sixteen may
be employed without first obtain
ing certificate based on a re-
CURED record in school work.
The law also puts penalties upon
all teachers and school boards for
neglect of their duties as pra-
scribed in the act. The school
authorities have co-operated dill
gently in the effort to get all
children into either the public or
parochial school and their efforts
have generally been met. in a
helpful and appreciative way by
the parents of the district.
The conditions as to attend
ance cannot be said to be entire
ly ideal, but splendid work along
this line has been accomplished
with the' least possible friction
and the authorities continue to
hope that complete compliance
with this important law may be
had without the necessity of any
prosecutions. 1t is generally.
understood, however, that, if it
should become necessary, prose-
cutions will be instituted to COM
pei attendance of all children.

FREIGHT CARS
Handled With More Efficiency Equivalent
To 10000 Additional Cars

Washington, Feb. l6.-Increas.
efficiency in the handling OF
freight ears during the last six
months has been equivalent to
an addition of more than $50, 000
freight cars to the equipment OF
American railroads.
lui, STA ement Is made in re-
port to Chairman Lane, of the
Interstate Commerce Com omission
by Art ur Hale, general agent of
the American Railway Associa-
ton, who say the figures show
that "the American freight car
beat the record for efficiency"
That they mean much to Amer
can railroads is Indicated by the
fact, without any increase in
efficiency, it would have required
$50, 900 additional cars to perform
the service. These cars would
have costrthe roads a total of
$780, 100000.

PROTECTION
FOR THE BOYS
Cigarette Law Disresarded and
Many Boys Being Hurt
NO ONE UNDER 10 YEARS CAN
LEGALLY PROCURE CIGARETTES
Law Strict-Not Even Parents Can Give
Boys Cigarettes

Attention Of the faculty of the
graded school, of the schoolboard,
and of parents of number of
Darlington small boys has been
recently focused strongly upon
the fact that the law against the
selling, furnishing or giving Gig
arettes to children under eigh-
teen years Of age seems to be
generally disregarded. For the
benefit of many boys in the com.
munity, who are being seriously
hurt by the use of cigarettes; as
help to parents and teachers
aud all good citizens who desire
to see our youths safeguarded
physically, mentally and morally
and for the advice and eBighten-
ment of any who may not realize
the great damage that comes to
boys through cigarette smok ne,
or may not know of the penal
ties which the Kentucky law pro-
vides for the protection of these
boys; The Bee here prints that
section of the Kentucky Statutes
which restricts the sale or Gistri-
button Of cigarettes or cigarette
material to persons under the age
of eighteen, aud the section gov
erning license tax to dealers.
"ClGARETTES FURNISH

Ii is clear, from the reading of
tins law that there is no way at
all for boy under eighteen to
legally use any cigarettes or any
cigarette material. Even a par
'ent who furnishes his own boy
with cIgare ties is as much vln-
lator of the law as a stranger
who might sell these Coffin
Nails" to hls sou, so that when
ever a boy under eighteen years
of age is seen with cigarettes or

sion the conclusion must be that
somebody has violated the law
and is subject to it's penalties
