Richmond May Get Natural
Gas.

Capt. John Tonkin, general manager
OF the Central Kentucky Natural Gas
Co., arrived in Lexington last week from
the East and when interviewed in regard
to the report that has been in circula-
tion to the effect that his company in
tended TO extend its lines at once to Mid
way, Richmond and Frankfort, said:
THE extension of our lines to some of
the neighboring towns is contemplated
and has been discussed at some length
among the stockholders and officials of
the company, but / hardly think our
plans will be sufficiently matured to
build these lines this year.
''At Frankfort and Midway both fran
chises have been secured and the major
ity of the stockholders are of the opin-
ion that the lines should be built at the
earliest practicable moment, but the
company has recently expended $500, 900
in building new pipe line connecting
with the West Virginia gas fields and
has also installed a new service at Paris,
KY, and some of the stockholders seem
to think that this is enough expense for
the present.
Capt. Tonkin stated that he felt con-
fident that the line would be extended
TO adjoining counties at an early date.

No one knows better than the skilled
druggist the dangerous character of
most cough and cold preparations. To
produce results these remedies must
contain some form of narcotic or some
one of the coal tar products. These
drugs are injurious to the stomach, es-
pecially to the delicate stomach of little
children.
Druggists have long sought for some
direct method of reaching cold troubles
for some form of vapor treatment that
would be inhaled direct to the lungs and
air passages.
In little North Carolina town drug
gist discovered how to combine Thymol,
Eucalyptol. Menthol, Camphor, Oil of
Pine, etc., in the form of salve so that
when applied to the chest and throat
the heat of the body would release these
volatile products in the form of vapors.
These vapors are inhaled all night
long, at the same time the preparation
is absorbed through the skin taking out
the soreness and tightness. The effect
for all cold troubles is remarkable, no
matter whether head colds or deep chest
colds. For Group positive relief is as
sured in fifteen minutes. For all forms
of bronchial troubles, sore throat, diff
cult breathing. etc., this new treatment

Newspaper Publicity

Where is the man, woman or child
who does net read daily newspaper?
Not every one can afford the luxury of
travel by train or trolley, to read adver-
tising there. Home keeping folks don't
tramp aimlessly up and down the broad
highways after dark to read street signs.
When they do so they have an objective
point and are usually on pleasure bent,
and such pleasure costs considerable
money. But who is too poor to buy a
pdperY Indeed, who can afford to be
without one?
The newspaper is an advertising me-
dunn of the first class. because it carries
more in number and greater variety of
announcements than any other and at
less cost. 1t gives greater value for its
cost than any other medium.
The newspaper is the liturature of the
masses and is often their Bible at the
same time. Local and national adver
tisers can reach more people through
the newspaper than through any other
known medi ium of publicity and can get
quicker, more immediate and lasting re-
suits by its use than by any other
means.
The newspaper advertiser reaches all
who read anything, and his constituency
is practically unlimited. All who read
news-and who does not?-read adver-
tisements for the simple reason that they
cannot help doing so. Indeed. the daily
newspaper is, as has been wittily said,
"a small body of literature (only its vol
ume is underestimated) entirely sur
rounded by advertisements"
1t pays to advertise-in the right me
dium. And among such the newspaper
is supreme. 1t is new every day.-The
Fourth Estate.

The Great Achievements of
Wilson,

If a year. ago man had prophesied
that within the first ten months of the
Wilson administration an income tax
would be adopted; tariff measure
passed; currency reform secured; that
the telephone trust would voluntarily
dissolve; that the New Haven railroad
would accede to every demand of the
Department of Justice in becoming mo-
nopoly proof, and that j. P. Morgan &
Co., should withdraw from numerous
corporations ''in response to public sen
timent," and all witout panic or seri-
Gus business disturbance-if these mo-
mentous accomplishments had been pre-.
dicted for the Democratic party in the
first year of its return to power-the
would-be prophet would have been called
a crank and hero worshipper, and
would have been accused of ascribing
an impossible amount OF power and
ability to Woodrow Wilson and his
helpers. But il has all been accom-
plished, and Woodrow Wilson was the
principal factor in the accomplishment

THE MADCAP DUCHESS
AT | Lexington.

A real comic opera, with real music
and real story, with singing actress
in the title role, are only few of the
many reasons why Miss Ann Swinburne
in Victor Herbert's latest opera, THE
Madcap Duchess" has been received
with pronounced success in New York.
Miss Swinburne comes here direct from
the Globe Theatre, New York, where
she has been appearing successfully
since last fall. The Lexington engage
ment is Ii nited to one performance
"Wednesday night, January as, at the
Lexington Opera House. "The Madcap
Duchess" is an exquisite light opera, and
in the long history of light opera in this
country, there never has been a more
delightful work than this, Victor Her.
bert's latest offering. There is no hasty
writing for mere commercial purposes.
Every melody has been wri ten lovingly,
and in harmonizing the Accomplishments
and working out the ensemble, the COM
poser has produced some of his most
delicate effects. Love is a Story That
is DID," ''Do You Know" and the
Madrigal and the Shepherds Dance are
numbers that are sure TO charm one.
While Miss Swinburne has not been seen
in Lexington in over three years. she
has made wonderful progress during
that time, and she stands TO day at
the head of prima donnas associated with
light opera in this country. Messrs.
David Stevens and Justin Huntley Nc
Carry have supplied her with role that
fits her like glove. Dainty and wlnsome
at all times, she interprets the music
that falls to her lot with vigor and
freshness born of true artist, Not in
many, many years has there been an
opera mounted so sumptuously. There
is wealth of color on the stage, and yet
it is all in good taste, credit of which
must be given to Mr. Fred Latham, who
staged the piece. The piece is in two
acts, with locale in and near Paris, and
concerns capricious young Duchess of
Bapaume, whose escapades after eluding
her guardian, lead her into many adven-
lures and eventually pretty love affair
with Renaud, Prince of St. Pol. The
Company carries its own Iorchestra of
twenty men, under the direction of Mr..
Robert Hood Bowers.
Orders for seats to Manager Scott will
receive prompt attention if accompan-
led by remittance and a self-addressed
envelope

About Pistols.

A revolver on a mans person should
be prima facie evidence of intent to kill.
The argument that man carries pis-
tol for protection is nonsense. We COW
cred the police beat for two years. and
We cannot now recall single instance
where carrying pistol was the slightest
benefit to man in trouble. But we do
remember number of men who would
have been better off to have been un-
armed. We have known silly quarrels
to result in murder because some hot
tempered individual had the misfortune
to carry revolver in his hip pocket.
Graveyards and prisons are full of per
sons who would not be in either place
today had the pistol never been invented.

Still Minus Competition.

The strenuous efforts being made by
the various towns in Central Kentucky
10 boost their respective loose leaf to-
bacco markets has overshadowed the
real conditions OF all the markets as a
whole The fact is that while each and
every community where loose leaf
market is established is tearing lis
clothes" TO make its market appear the
highest and best by advertising only the
high crop averages, of from Sl3 to SIG a
hundred, the fCur-footed tobacco octo-
pus is getting the entire crop into its
claws at an average of something like
S1l per hundred. As 10 real competi-
tion on any of the markets TO our mind
it exists only in form.
OF course there are five or six buyers
on each market, representing a like
number of factories, but it is evident
that no competition exists beyond the
price fixed at one central head. And
in fixing the price it is pretty certain
that such a thing as crop shortage has
never entered into the figuring. 1t is
simply question of the lowest price
that will satisfy the farmer and encour-
age him to continue to produce.
1t is true the price is better now than
when we used to throw in the spodge
and the tips. but if we had real, live,
bona fide competition on this unusual
short, lightweight crop of tobacco, you
would now be realizing at least third
more for the crop.
Things could be worse. but they could
be darn sight tter.-Georgetown

Not to be Laughed At.

The Ashland Clipper tells of farmer
who was driving along country road
aud encountered one of his neighbors
seated in a buggy with a stone in either
hand. Occasionally the horse would
turn his head look back at him, which
seemed to be the signal for the stalled
ruralite to heave another stone. "What
is the matter?" inquired the new arriv-
al. Il don't mind a horse baking so
much" was the reply, ''but I'll be id

six felds have been set apart for the
games In which teams representing every
country where polo Is played are ex-
pected to compete.
When the news OF this proposed tour.

was considerable doubt as to whether
a scheme of such magnitude could be
carried out, but a chat with Mr.. Miller
at the st. Regis Hotel yesterday was
convincing and negotiations have pro-
ceeded so far that at the present time
all the leading clubs In the United States
have pr onised to take part and assur
ances have been received from abroad
that enough foreign teams will make
the trip to San Francisco to warrant
the title OF universal tournament. which
will be used TO avoid confusion with the
