EXPERIENCE
OF MOTHERHOOD
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience of Motherhood is a try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in q hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how to properly core for her
self. OF course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and q distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainablo thing Ia
that, with all the evidence Of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
nm unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia +. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, most valuable tonic and
invigorator Of the female organism.

"COPPER""
IN ROLE OF GOAT
Small Pleasure Derived From
Position AS Limb of
the Law.

There is small pleasure in being a
cop these days.
There is not much glory or excite
ment to the job at any time moving
pictures and sensational dime novels,
to the contrary Notwithstanding.
But the job they've got this week
takes the cake.
"Why the devil should I go half a
square out of my way to turn cor
ner," queried an irate farmer yester-
day when he was held up by traffic
officer for negotiating a turn without
observing the formality of keeping to
the right.
After vehicles were tied up for half
a square in four directions while the
blue coat drew diagram of metropoli-

Gated one tapped old Dobbin gently
with one of the lines and the conges-
ton was alleviated.
One officer this morning was asked
by an old lady if he were a police
man. Upon giving an affirmative ans
wer the limb of the law was astound-
ed by having a suit case thrust into
his hands with the injunction to keep
a close watch on it for half an hour"
The things that are asked a copper

But it is all a part of the days work

Schools Have Unique Displays
In Large Educational Exhibit

The educational exhibit on display
at the office of County Supt. Williams
at the county court house is attract
ing much attention. Every school in
Wayne county. outside of Richmond. is
represented and fancy work of the
school children is being inspected. The
agricultural exhibits of the schools are
proving to be the most popular.
Freak farm produce and girls handi-
craft work, made from different grains
and vegetables make an unusually in
teresting display.
Corn is on exhibition from the state
OF Louisiana on which not a drop of
rain fell from the time it was planted
until matured. The ears are somewhat
stunted though the record is a remark
able one.
Every Vegetable Shown.
District school No. s, on the Middle
boro pike, has the largest and best
exhibit. The work of the children was
supervised by Miss Ora White and
Mrs, Laura Eldridge. Every kind of
vegetable and farm product which is
attainable at this season is included in
the list of entries from this school. A
secret of the success OF the exhibit is
the result of the cooperation of the
parents and children. Most of the pa
irons of the school are members of
the Columbia Farmers association
which holds its meetings in the school.

Budd and Jerry Curtice, of Winches-

in the Kentucky state penitentiary for
the last ten years for murder probab-
ly will be given their liberty as the re-
suit of evidence secured here that the
men are innocent.

accessory in the murder of Marshal
Robert Richardson,
Woman Tells Story.
Mrs. Owen Terry is a brother of
Budd Todd, of Liberty, who is be-
lieved to have committed the murder
which the Curtice brothers are serv-
ing time for. Mrs. Terry said she
knew her brother had committed the
crime for many years, though she had
been forced to remain silent on the
penalty of death. She informed
Strayer of the crime because Todd
was one of the prosecuting witnesses
against her husband. Todd said he
would testify to a lie to land Terry
in the penitentiary because he hated
him. He testified in the witness stand
that he had not spoken to Terry for
several years because they were enem-
les. -.
strayer told Todd if'-.9he testified
against his client fie would charge him
with xaurder. Todd Immediately left
Liberty and has not been seen since.
His family are believed to be with him.
The matter is being investigated fur
ther by Strayer and the attorney gen.
eral Of Kentucky. Strayer will assist
in securing evidence in Kentucky
which will result in the dismissal of
the Curtice men.

HdrrOld'S Voice
Pleases Hearers
Appearance of Noted Ten
or Was Fully Up to Ex-
pectatiOns.
By BLAIR CONVERSE.

The appearance of Orville Harold
and Lydia Locke at the Coliseum last
night, was artistically, fully up to what
was expected from the regulations of
the great singers and was only marred
by the smallness of the crowd in at
tendance. The beauty of Harrold's
voice and the sincerity of his interpre-
tations could not be over praised He
combines with a wonderful voice the
aquisitions of training and are. His
manner is dramatic and personal In a
way that overcomes the limitations of
the concert platform and brings the
passion, or the glory, or the tragedy Of
the music direct to the hearer.
Miss Locke, Harrold's wife, has not
the robustness of vocalization that
characterizes the great tenor, but
makes her appeal more by the easy
grace of her renditions and her charm
ing personality.
The program was a pleasing one
with a happy combination of the
French. Italian and English, the oper-
attic and the ballad. Especially in the
ballads did Harold win the applause
of his audience. His voice and manner
are in fullest sympathy with the pri-
NAL emotion of that form and to this
he adds the sophistication of the ar
tist 1t is a rare thing to hear a truly
great singer of ballads but Harold is
a rival of even Bispham and Heine-
mann. In Sposs' Yesterday and To
day" the dramatic climax was worked
up with a vigor and intensity that
sent thrills of fear, and wonder, and
awe through the crowd and held the
hearers quiet for a time after the end
of the number.
Miss Locke, who has been i'll for sew
eral days, was not heard 20 the best
advantage on that account. Her voice
was most pleasing perhaps in the
"Chanson Provencale" of DELI Aqua
which suited well the plaintive oboe
quality of her voice.
The singers were repeatedly encor-
ed and Harold responded three times
with his favorites: the Irish song,
Mother Mckee" IT Hear You Cali
ing Me-" and I'm Falling in Love
with Someone"
Mr.. and Mrs Harold are engaged
to sing in the Hammerstein opera this
winter and are touring before the op-
ening of the season under the man
ageme1t OF Harry z. Paris, OF Muncie.

After being tried and convicted here
Judge Fox granted him new trial.
The states attorney decided not to
prosecute him, believing he could not
secure a verdict of conviction in the
local courts.
Terry handed his father the gun. as
was conclusively shown by testimony
of the states witnesses, though this
would not make him an accessory to
the murder unless he melted his par
ent to shoot Richardson.
Judge Fox said this morning that
Will Terry, now serving a life SEN
tence for the murder, would not be
doing so if tried before him. He said
Terry was justified in shooting the
marshal because of the brutal man.

NO POLITICS FOR
LOCAL DELEGATION
Richmond ID. A. r. Women
Never Mix in Society
BrOils, Member Says.

Politics of the organization will not
be participated in by the delegates
of the Richmond chapter to the state
ID. A. R. convention to be held in In
edianapoIis October z, Sand 9.
The Richmond chapter has never
taken any part in the political broils
of the D. A. r. contenting itself with
interesting itself instead in the civic
welfare patriotic instruction work of
the society,"" a member stated. Mrs.
James Judson, regent of the Richmond
chapter was offered the office of treas
urer of the state organization some
weeks ago, but declined to accept it
for the reason that the local chapter
does not care to mix in the politics
of the D. A. R.
At the convention next week Mrs.
Judson will make report on the kind
of work that the D. A. r. can best do
in civic welfare enterprises. Mrs.
Judson will go to the convention as
regent of the Richmond chapter, Mrs.
John Nicholson as delegate and Mrs.
Will Gaar as alternate.
