The Kentucky S ate Board of Health,

in Kentucky 20, 600 cases of tuberculosis.

Madison Tobacco Co.

In this issue of the Record we are
glad to have the advertisement of the
Madison Tobacco Warehouse Company
of Richmond. This Company has built
a new steel structure perfectly lighted
and with capacity of 100000 pounds
daily. They have also installed new
electric pricing plant in the old Ware
house which is joined to the new one
with visduct. With tAis pricing plant
can be turned out and easily handled as
much as a hundred and fifty hogsheads
daily. They have stable room for 200
horses, barn room for $50 loads at a
time, and with as near perfect facilities
for handling tobacco as can be found
any where. This company has sold well
up near a million pounds up TO this time
at the best prices that they have ever
gotten before, with three electric prizes
going they can easily clean the floors
and make competition keener and bet
ter because the tobacco can be gotten
out of the way and handled. This COM
pany gives a square deal to every one,
and is perfectly reliable in every way
and they especially solicit the tobacco
from Garrard county, as they believe it
is the best grown in the State.-Lancas-

SIS POSTAGE Stamps.

Startling fgues are shown indicating
the amount and value of United States
stamps used during the year. More than
nine billion stamps have been sold, and
the stamp collectors are still busy. As
an evidence of prosperity it is interert-
ing to note that there is fve-dollar
postage stamp. more than 1850 of
which we're sold last year. and besides
these more than $4,000 of the one-dollar
denomination.
II has been estimated that more than
three million stamps per day we're used
by the people Of the United States last
year As one French humorist remarked
in England. THAT shows that the

The Sore Point.

The New York Times protests very
loudly against any plan of financial relief
that recognizes government control. By
so doing it betrays the secret motive of
the Aldrich plan. The men who are
back of the effort to secure central
bank and asset currency talk loudly
about the need of an elastic currency
but the moment a plan is suggested
which gives the elasticity desired, it is
viciously attacked, unless it includes
further privileges to the banking fra
ternity.
The New York Times speaks Tor Wall
street. but Wall street will not be per-
mitted to write the banking laws of the
nation any longer. Governor Wilson in
the discussion of public questions has
very properly insisted mat the laws
shall be written from the standpoint of
the rhole people and not from the stand
point OF the of the special interests.
1t is fortunate for the country that we
are to have a president who considers
the interests of the general public and
not the demands of the interested few
in framing legislation. -Bryan's Com

WomanS Confidence;
Mans Deceit.
CIV. P. Walton.)

There is one poor, con6dng girl, at
least, who did not enjoy the Merry
Christmas time. She lives in Pitts
burg, Pa, and life to her at present
seems rot worth the living. In fact,
all seems dark and dreary with no
silver Innings in the clouds. She is a
poor shop girl who loved not wisely,
but too we'll man she knew but little,
After winning her affections he Sc
cured her promise to mary him and
then she began to save from her
meager stipend a sufficient amount to
buy her wedding outfit. She had, after
weeks of toll and economy, succeeded
in saving one hundred dollars and the
wedding was to take place this week
In moment of confidedce, however,
she told the base creature who had
won her of her, savings. With the
cold b'oodedness of a fiend incarnate
IL begin to scheme to get hold of her
money, and fianally on a plea that he
needed it for a business investment,
which would double itself many times
in a few days, she gave him the saw
ings of months and that was the last
she saw of him. He disappeared and
left her to weep instead of looking for
ward with JOY to her nuptials and
life with him she loved.
The amount seems large sum to
the poor girl. but she had better lose
it, and many times over, than to be
married to such a man. She is free
and pure to go on with the struggle
for life, for whereas had she been
Joined to him lifetime of sorrow and
would doubtless have been
hers. A creature, who for a pitful
one hundred. dollars, would cast aside
the love of trusting girl and blast her
hope, better deserves a halter than
place at the alter and while she has
paid dearly for her experience the
young woman can, if she will, thank
heaven that she got off easy.-Lexington

Girls Body Found i'm Stream.

Newark, N. j., Sept. 17.-The
body of Alice Hopper, 16 years old,
who has been missing since Satur-
day from her home in Kearney, N.
D., was found in the Passaic river at
Harrison tonight, her skirts weight
ed with stones.
William Tolen, chief of police of
kearney, and the girls relatives de-
clared that she had been murdered
and her body cast into the river. The
stones, weighing about 12 or IA
pounds, had been placed in the lap
of her outer skirt and her skirt
drawn up to form a basket, the hem
being knotted at the rear of her
waist. Chief Tolen said he did not
believe she could have placed the
stones and tied the knot.
Miss Hopper was an unusually
pretty girl. She left home at eight
o'clock Saturday night to mail seve-
raj letters, among them being invi-
tations to party she was about to
give. That was the last her rela-
tives saw of her.
