Bees AdmlttaDce to Prison.

George Koors, 81 years old,
sentenced to the penitentiary for
life from Covington, KY, in 1882
for the murder of his brother-in
law, H. H. Burns. Of that city,
and who escaped from the prison
in 1882, returned to the prison
and begged Warden Wells to ad-
NIT him to serve his term. Dur
ing the 81 years of liberty Koors
has not had a minutes peace.
He has been pursued by the
ghost of the slain man. Realiz-
ing that he must live a life of
misery as a punishment for his
crime. Koors decided he should
live it within prison walls. He
was taken to Gov. McCreary by
Warden Wells, and if sane prob
ably will be pardcned. He is
suffering from neutrils and is a
physical wreck. Koors killed
Bruins for striking his sister.
Since his escape Koors has trav-
eled all over the world, finally
landing in New York City. There

whose residence, he says, was
raided a week ago, and she was
sent to the Tombs. He then de-

Most Valuable Fruit Tree in tine
World.

What is probably the most val
liable tree in the world is an ALI
gator-pear tree at Whittier, Cal.
which netted its owner a profit
of So, 206 IN one year. This tree
was planted in 1905 and began
bearing in its fourth year. In
1912 it bore 5000 pears which
sold for ST. 800, while the sale of
buds during t h e same year
amounted to 81, 706, making the
total given above. The tree is a
seeding, the seed having been
planted with a quantity of other
seed which had been imported,
presumably from Mexico. An
other tree which was planted at
the same time, and which stands
close to this phenomenal bearer,
has never borne more than so
pears in season.

COddIe The Toad.

Homely things come into their
own sooner or later. For centu-
ries, men and boys have taken
undue delight in swatting the
homely, warty toad whenever
possible. Fair women have been
wont to scream when the ugly
little hoppers have appeared in
their path. Men have had to
pay damages in court for having
called other men toads. For
centuries the toad has been held
up to derision. His lot has been
hard. He has even been much
raked as pest. Now, however,
he is coming into his own. A
while ago Mississippi planter
noticed two toads feeding at the
end of row Of cotton. Of
course, being a man who hated
toads, he swatted them. Being
a curious man, this Mississippian
cut open one of the toads and,
much to his surprise, he discov-
cred in the bread bag of the hop
per over 100 boil weeviIs. The
boil weevil is the bugbear of the
cotton planter. Consequently,
when the cotton grower discov-
cred the boil weevils in the in

ed to STAY without provocation.
The planter is now looking for
more toads to grow fat in his
cotton eating the offensive boil
weevils, which, by running crops

Left Will in Memoirs.

A romantic story of a will
written in book of memoirs has
just come to light in Paris.
Some time ago-about ten years
M. Lefevre de Revel, an ex-
else Inspector, retired from his
post and, not knowing how to
fill in his spare time, began the
task of writing his memoirs.
He made excellent progress and
the number of volumes soon be-
came amazing. He had them
bound and gave them to his rel
atives and friends to read, and
was highly complimented by
them. On page $40 of the 18th
volume he wrote a will leaving
his fo.tune (about S8O,0OO) to
various friends. At the 18th
volume he died. AS none of his
friends had had the fortitude
and perseverance to make their
way as far as page $40 of the 18th
volume, they all remained in
complete ignorance of this will
and the next of kin took the for
tune. A short time ago, purely
by chance, the will was discov-
cred, and the friends named in
the will have begun an action to
recover the fortune. -McCreary

Turtle 500 Years Old.

The Central Park, New York,
menagerie, received a sea turtle
this week, that was referred to
as the "Old Man of the Pacific. "
His age was said to be 800 years
or a trifle over. His age was
figured out from the sixteen
squares markep on top of his
shell. Each square was said to
represent fifty years. The turtle
weighs 464 lbs, and is 6 feet 8
inches long from tip of nose to
tip of tail. He was brought
there from the California coast
on a tramp steamer and sold to
Benjamin Katzenstein W h o
thought it a prize for Central
Park. Two policemen and two
menagerie keepers got upon the
turtles back when it arrived at
the menagerie, and it carried
them several yards. A police
man poked him with his club and
the turtle bit the club in two.
His mouth is six inches across.

On Personal Remarks.

A few nights since a gentle

ment did not injure the gentle

Bowels are Basis

closely the physical peculiarities of her

most important thing in connection with
q child's constant good health is to keep
the bowels regularly open. Sluggish
bowels will be followed by loss of appe-
tite, restTessness during sleep, irrita-
bility and a dozen and one similar evil
dences of physical disorder.
AT the first sign of such disorder give
the child teaspoonful of DIR. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring and
repeat the dose \the following night if
necessary-more than that will scarcely
be needed. You will find that the child
will recover its accustomed good spirits
at once and will eat and sleep normally.
This remedy is vast improvement
over salts, cathartics, laxative waters
and similar things, which are altogether

fifth, Veechdale, KY, are always supplied
with DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin, and with
them, as with thousands of others, there
is no substitute for this grand laxative.
1t is really more than a laxative, for it
contains superior tonic properties which
help to tone and strengthen the stomach,
liver and bowels so that after a brief
use of it all laxatives can be dispensed
with and nature will do it's own work.
