of hip and one of glands. Most of the
patients were brought by doctors and
we're asked to return in ten days. DIR.
Friedman, who will meet the federal

prohibiting him from practicing.

Meeting This Saturday.
Mr.. Owen Still Anxious

w J. Owen has been one of the first
men in the county to take an interest
in the Boys Corn Club movement and
he is still anxious to see it succeed in
Breckenridge. Mr.. Owen writes:
We note that the Fiscal Court at re
cent session set aside $1,000 as pre-
MUM fund for Breckenridge County
Boys Corn Club and we think this com
mendable and wish to say that it is
time this club is being organized so
that all boys in the county can be get
ting ready to do best work. Now we
wqdld suggest that some one or more
f1the good Democratic or Republican
Office seekers get after this matter and
have all boys who wish to enter the
contest to meet at Hardinsburg and or
ganize, and we wish to add that we
will in addition to any other prizes
that may be offered give to the boy
who wins first in the contest Poland.
China, either big or medium type,
worth $25. 90 and to the one winning
second prize pig worth $500. and
we believe that many farmers and bus
mess men in the county will contribute
to this most worthy cause II the matt ,r
is taken up in time.
Respectfully.
w. j. Owen & Sons.

BEING
TESTED TODAY
Experiments Begun at Mum
icipal Water and Light
Plant.

Tests Of the capacity and efficiency
Of the two new boilers recently in
stalled at the city water and light
plant were commenced this morning,
and will continue until Friday.
The experiments arc being conduct
ed by A. Wagensteel OF the Burke
Furnace Co. of Chicago. and p. Cor
bin, of the Freeman Boiler works,
where the boilers we're manufacture
ed.
The boilers are supposed to evap-
crate 5000 pounds of water into
steam per hour when working at full
capacity. This should give 800 horse
power.
There has been some criticism of
the boilers around the city and it has
been declared that they will not de-
velop this much power. The object
of the test is to disprove these ru-
mors.
The efficiency of the plant will also
be tested. In other words experiments
will he made 10 discover how many
pounds of water can be turned into
steam by one pound of coal in the
course of an hour.
The tests arc to last t%wenty-four
hours, and the average record per
hour will be taken as the final fig

The SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required 10. Win The
Peoples Confidence

. Have you ever stopped to reason
why 1t is that SO many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out Of sight and arc soon for
gotten? The reason is plain-the ar
ticle did no fulfill the promises of
the manufacturer. This applies nor
particularly to a medicine. A medic
inal preparation that has real curative
value. sells itself. as like an endless
chain system the remedy is recon-
mended by those who have been bene-
fitted, to those who are In need Of 1t.
4 prominent druggist says Take
for example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. a preparation l have sold for
many years and never hesitate to rec
omnend. for in almost every case it
shows excellent results. as many of
my customers testify. No other kid
ney remedy that I know Of has SO
large Il sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony Of thousands who
have used the preparation. the sue
cess. of DIR. kilmer's Swamp-Root is
due to the fact that 1t fulfiis almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liv-
er apd bladder diseases, corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid. which causes rheumatism.

Der of which has Just appeared. 1.-THE

and, it is designed as an cducative me-
dunn. -
In the official announcement, the
editor states: Ignorance of the lead
ing facts as to it's cause. prevention
and cure is responsible in a large

do away with this drawback that The

Aside from it's campaign Against

devote some space to other diseases.
The monthly bulletin also will contain
number Of interesting facts regard
ing the progress of the work and the
state sanitarium at Dnnseith.
The initial volume of The Pennant

cR0CERS MUST

- 4.
States Attorney Sends a
Warning Letter to the
Store Keepers.
SMALL STORES ARE
LAW
Official Advises Owners that
Meagre Profits are Hard
ly Worth While.

The Sunday closing laws must be
obeyed by all grocery and other stores
IN the city, according to a letter sent
oil by Q. b. B%urtncss, states attorney.
to a. number Of the grocers on the
outskirts Of the city. (.
Several complaints have been re-
ceived at the states attorneys office
from church members saying that
some of the OUTLYING groceries had
been disobeying the state law in this
respect. AS a result Mr.. BurtneSs has
sent out the following letter to many
nf the srocerS:
Dear Sir: Several complaints have
been made TO me to the effect that u
largo number of grocery stores, par
ticularly in the outskirts of this city.
remain open on Sunday for general
business. The disposition of the par
ties who have made the complaints
is not to commence prosecutions for
past offenses, but rather to bring
about a discontinuance of such prac-
tice. I therefore take this method
OF calling our attention to this mat
ter and am mailing a similar copy to
all %proprietors of grocery stores out
side OF the strictly business section
whose names 1 have been able to OBJ
tain, I am not writing to the stores
in the business. district. for as I I'M
1crstand it,. none such remains open
ON Sunday.
We have on our statute books a
number of provisions against Sabbath
breaking. Among them is section S575
nj the revised code OF 1905, which
reads as follows:
AN manner of public. selling, or
offering or exposing for sale publicly.
of my commodities upon Tho first day
of the week, is prohibited, except that
meats. milk n fish nay be sold at
my time before 9 o'clock in the morn
lug. and except that food may be sold
to be. eaten upon the premises where
sold. and drugs and medicines and
surgical appliances may be sold, at
any time of the day"
This wording is SO plain that it
needs no further explanation on my
part. Section S577 provides as fol-
lows:
Every. person, guilty of Sabbath
breaking is punishable by a. fine of
not less than 81 nor more than $40,
at the discretion of the court, for
each offense."
I have no doubt that il you have
heretofore kept your store open, you
will discontinue doing SO at once. VIC

CITY PARK SYSTEM IMPROVED
superintendent John Mcdonald Pre-
scented Report at Meeting of
Board Tuesday Might.

Many improvements in the city
parks were reported by John McDon-
aid, superintendent. at the meeting of
the city park board held Tuesday
evening.
Belmont avenue and the river road,
bordering on Lincoln park, have been
graded in such a way as to make then,
more passable in winter. Along the
river drive logs have been placed UNI
der some of the more dangerous
places.
Lighting systems have been in.
stalled at the toboggan slide at River.
SIDE park and the skating rink at
Central park. y
Plans were discussed for trans
planting some of the trees in the more
thicklN wooded portions of University
and Riverside parks to portions Of
the parks where the trees have died
and been cut down. This is most i'm
portant, according to MIR. Mcdonald,
as the transplanted trees will flourish
in the new environment to a much
greater extent than at present.

AT. the regular monthly meeting Of
