(By Robt. Lee Campbell.)

by Robt. Lee Campbell)
There is State in this old nation,
A State that l dearly love,
And I'm inclined to believe that it
has no equal.
Except in that Land above.
And if you possess a home in that
State,
consider you to be quite lucky,
For you'll find it quite true,
That there is no other State
Falf the equal of Kentucky.
She has soil of limestone formation
And also of sandy loan,
And her mountain scenery is far
superior
To the Cithaerons of Rome.
She grows the famous bluegrass, hemp
and corn,
And for esculents she is quite lucky,
So come all who are true.
You are welcome | am sure,
To make your home in Kentucky.
All up and down the whole creation,
Or anywhere l may rove,
Pill tell the world that Kentucky has
no equal,
Except in that Land above.
Her horses are fine, her men they
are brave,
Yes, you will always find they are
plucky,
And you will find am sure,
That there no other maids
So fair as those os Kentucky.

What is known as cocobolo

Anxiety Breaks Men.

1t is a well known fact that
protracted anxiety without rest,
breaks more men than does hard
intellectual effort. Statistics re-
garding the lives of stockholders
in a certain city show that near
ly every person who lived a So
Der life and continuously studied
the ups and downs Of the money
market failed either mentally or
physically in a short time-less
than a dozen years-ultimately
disappearing from active life.
On the other hand. the men who
were operators of great skill and
GOODNESS and who lived regularly
most of the time, but occasional
ly gave way to the drink habit,
lived longer and had fewer men
tai disorders. This, of course,
cannot be construed into an ar
gument in favor of drinking even
occasionally, but was strong
indication Of the benefit coming
from the occasional complete re-
Taxation from intense menta
anxiety.

Health Notes.

Before starting for a long morn
ing walk, drink glass of milk
very slowly.
Sick headaches can be reliev-
ed by drinking a cup of black
coffee without sugar but with the
addition of the juice of a lemon.
The woman who has blond
hair, also her gray haired sister,
should be most particular to keep
their crowns of glory perfectly
clean, for dust shows upon blond
and gray hair in a most ugly
fashion.
Inc persistent use or peroxide
of hydrogen when a cold sore
first makes it's appearance will
kill it in a short time. Dab it in
thoroughly every few minutes
and it will in a short time draw
the pus out, when, of course, the
cause is removed. Then a heal
ing cream should be applied.
Hot baths should be taken at
night just before bedtime. They
are apt to prove exhausting and

salary or wages of any kind. In
telligent people will be vacci-
mated without compulsion be-
cause it is reasonable, necessary
and lawful; and health and 9TH
er officials are urged to see that
those who are not intelligent be
compelled to be vaccinated so
that the unnecessary drain on
the city and county treasures
and on the purses of the people
themselves from this entirely
unnecessary pestilence be STOP
ped. Small pox, like murder,
will only be prevented when the
law is enforced. In Germany
they have no small poX because
they enforce compulsory educa-
ton and compulsory vaccination.
This Board urges all the peo.
pie of Kentucky who read this to
be vaccinated themselves at
once. or be reyaccinated if they
have not been vaccinated within
seven years. and to see that
their families, neighbors and
dependents are vaccinated imme-
diately.
Fresh, reliable vaccine virus
may be secured from the State
Board of Health, Bowling Green
