YEARS OF DISCRETION,
an entirely charming play by Frederick

nal New York company.
Without doubt, one of the most de-
lightful produc tons of last season at the
Metropolis was the comedy masterpiece,
Years of Discretion" by Frederick and
Fannie Hatton, which ran 1913 consecu-
tive performances at the Belasco Theatre,
staged by the famous manager, the play,
production and company fully deserved
the tremendous success achieved during
the run.
The PLAY is one of those exquisite gems
of comedy that must be popular, and as
interpreted by Mr.. Belasco' s very artist
ic company is met with the most pro-
nounced financial and artistic apprecia-
ton.
The plot concerns principally, middle
aged widow, who has always lived quiet
w in one of Boston's suburbs and sudden-
ly realizes an ambition to shine socially,
her transition under the advice of fash
ionable friend surprises every one.
Effie Shannon portrays the chief femi-
nine role with a charm all her own and
gave New York one of the best pieces OF
character acting of her very successful
career.

Colorado Marble for Lincoln Memorial.
The wfite marble of which the great
81, 600, 600 Lincoln memorial temple is to
oe built on the banks of the Potomac in
Washington is to come from the Sopris
national forest, Colorado:
This is said to be the first great build
ing in the east to be constructed of this
stone, known to the building trades as
Denver marble, though much of it has
been used as an interior finish in public
buildings. In the west notable exam
pie of it's use is found in the new federal
building at Denver.
While the marble quarries are in the
midst of the national forest, they are
on private land secured under 'the laws
by which acres bearing deposits of build
ing stone are disposed of by the govern
ment. Under the law prospectors can
locate and secure title to mineral depos-
it's on the national forests just as they
can on the open public domain. The mar
BILE company which owns the quarries is
large user of national forest timber in
the working of it's properties, situated
near Marble, Colorado.
The history of the company is said to
be of considerable interest, as represent
ing indomitable enterprise against diff
culties. The country in which the mar
BILE deposits occur is extremely rough
and precipitous, and for a long time was
inaccessible because of lack of trans
portation facilities. Large sums had to
be expended before the stone could be
got out and brought to market. Up to
1907, when the product first began to at,
tract attention, it is said that 81, 200, 0OO
had been expended in developing the
property.

Benefits of the Agricultural Fair.

Benefits of the Agricultural Fair.
The Agricultural Fair has been ire
mendous force in agricultural and horti-
cultural development. The premiums
offered induce the owners of the best
stock and the growers of the best soil
products to exhibit. These unparalleled
exhibitions give the people valuable
opportunity of becoming acquainted with
each other and with their common prob
lens, creating a friendly rivalry among
stock owners and farmers, and go far
toward teaching the people the value of
progressive farming methods.
The Frederick Fair, Oct. ?l-24, will be
clearing house for all of the various
agencies working for the common good.
No one should fail to visit this giant ex-
hibition. 1t is in constructive and in
structive force. The old order has
changed and the number and effective
ness of the educational exhibits are be-
ing increased each year.
The machinery, live stock, vegetable,
poultry, fruit and floral exhibits are OF
wonderful value to our farmers in an ed
vocational way. The Maryland Agricul-
tural College will have a fine exhibition
in the grounds and there the farmer,
dairyman and fruit grower can secure
information that be of inestimable prac-
teal value to him.
Women who visit the Frederick Fair
will find more of help and inspiration thar
ever before. In the Main Exhibition Hal
will be found exhibits of jellies, pre-,
serves, dairy products, cakes, wines,
breads, pickles, fancy work of every de,
scription and an interesting collection OF
antiques.
There will be instruction and enter
tainment for the men and women anc
for the boys and girls.

Hunting Season Nearing

At present and up until Nov. LIST the
game laws of the county prohibit persons
carrying gun on or over any land. If
you are caught doing so, it is taken as
evidence that you are hunting, and this
is yet the closed season. On Nov. LIST
the season opens for hunting cartridges,
pheasants and rabbits, but on Election
Day the law prohibits hunting.
Before going on the land of another
person it is necessary to obtain permit.
This in a measure relieves property
owner of advertising his land against
trespassers, but at the same time tres
pass notice would advise persons that
the land owner did not desire hunting
and they would not be likely to ask for
a permit.

Bitter Guilty.

Charles Bitter, II years old, arrested
with John Bell, charged with setting fire
to house belonging to Mr.. John Stoner
on the High Germany" farm about a
mile from Logs, this county, pleaded
guilty in court at Frederick, Monday of
this week. Bitter said Bell offered to de-
duct $25 from the price of horse he had
bought if he would fire the house. Bell,
he said, put several pieces of furniture
in the house and poured coal oil on straw
that had been placed under the stairway.
According to Bitter he put match to
the straw and in short time the house
was in ashes. Bell had an insurance of
$40 on the furniture Bitter was held
until the trial of Bell, which will likely
be this week.

To Advertise Frederick
City and County.
Seven Hundred Dollars To Be
Raised For The Purpose.

Raised For The Purpose.
Seven hundred dollars will be used to
place an exhibit of Frederick county pro-
ducts at the great United States Land
Show at Chicago and display at the
State exhibition in Baltimore during Ma
ryland week. At least $500 of this sum
will be used for the county's exhibit at
Chicago with the Maryland exhibit, and
the balance will be used to assist the
Frederick County Farmers Association
to place an exhibition in Baltimore.
This amount was decided upon at a
Joint meeting of the executive commit
tees of the Farmers Association and the
Frederick Board of Trade which met at
the request of T. B. Hayward, State
committeeman, for the purpose of hav-
ing Frederick county take the lead of the
counties of the state in preparing an ex-
hibit for the land show.
That the products of this county are
not advertised as they should be was the
keynote of the discussion at the meeting
of the two committees. Mr.. Oliver Wren
formerly a resident of New York State,
said that he did not kno v of the superior
crops in this county until he purchased a
farm here. He claimed that outside of
the county and state, the fertility of the
soil was not known because no effort had
been made to advertise its products.
A Maryland Day at the land show when
Governor Goldsborough will very likely
be present, was promised by Thomas F.
Mahoney, of the Chicago Tribune, if
Maryland would make an exhibit of it's
products at the land show. On this day,
lectures will be made on Maryland pro-
ducts and Maryland songs will be sung.
Mr.. Mahoney explained that it was the
object of the show to advertise the crops
of the states which placed exhibits at
Chicago He said that it was also the
purpose to create a "back-to-the-farm'
in order that the cities might not be
crowded to overlooking. He said that
50 per cent of the people in Illinois lived
in cities and that only 2 per cent of i'm
migrants ever reached the farms.
Mr.. Mahoney said that he had instruc-
tions from Chicago giving him privilege
to devote three weeks in Maryland to
arrange for the display and that he was
willing to do all he could to make the ex-
hibit large and successful one. He
that So, 900 would make fine display for
the State.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines

If you want to contribute directly to
the occurrence of capillary bronchitis and
pneumonia use cough medicines that con-
tain iodine, morphine, heroin and other
sedatives when you have cough or cold.
An expectorant like Chamberlain S Cough
Remedy is what is needed. That cleans
out the culture beds or breeding places
for the germs of pneumonia and other
germ diseases. That is why pneumonia

Shortly after the day shift of 93l men
