NOVEL USE FOR GUNPoWDER
Taken Internally. PugiIist Claimed II
Made Cuts and Bruises Easier
to Heal.

A reference was made, short time
ago. to the use Of gunpowder as a med
icine. and now the Rev Fuller Mills,
a retired Baptist minister Of Carmar-
then, Wales, Lestilies to its efficacy.
EARLY in the sixties of the last cen
tury." Mr.. Mills writes, 81 was boy
behind the counter of what was known
as the company's shop at Abertillery.
Amongst the collier customers who
came to the shop was a tall, well-devel-
oped man known as Dick Stevens, or
Stephens.
He was member OF the prize ring
or the pugilistic fraternity, which was
very popular in those days. :.
Dick Stevens was matched TO fight
Ianto Catcham and was preparing for
the fight when he came to the shop
for his weekly requirements.
He generally asked for an ounce or
two of gunpowder. wondered at this,
and my curiosity was aroused.
81 asked what he used it for. His
reply was: I mix it with my gravy
when I have my dinner. and swallow
it, 1t prevents the flesh from easily
putting Under the hard blows of an
opponent. The cuts and bruises are
not so hurtful and heal more easily"

shot Squirrel with $40 Bill,

Ground squirrels were damaging
grain left in field by Winfield Scott,
manager Of the San Fernando hotel
in the town of that name, says the Los
Angeles Times. A guest had left a
loaded shotgun at the house few days
before.
Manager Scott decided to put an
end to the squirrels and started on a
still hunt, finally drawing bead on
one Of the marauders. He shot it, and,
having scared the others away, re-
turned home.
The guest arrived and asked for the
gun. When he discovered it had been
discharged he wilted.
Il stuck a $40 bill in the barrel for
safe keeping" he said.

Helm Speaks.

During general debate on the Agricul-
sural Bill, Mr.. Helm, of the 9Th Ken
lucky district. addressed the House at
some length and among other things
stated that the farmer, like the lawyer,
Doctor and all other professional men,
must keep abreast of the times by ap-
plication of strict business methods. He
showed any number of instances how
better returns could be obtained on the
same amount of land with less labor and
expense.
The speech was brim-full of good sug-
gestions and ideas on improved methods
of farming and stock raising, stating in
stances of three crops in one season as
one of the ways of supporting large fam.
lilies on small farma. He said that 20,
600, 900 men under arms in Europe have
to be fed from American products; sug
costing full steam ahead" by way O
great energy and larger acreage, suggest
ing the getting away from tobacco ant
less acreage for next season on accoun
of its injury to the soil and the democrat
ization of the foreign market, due TO thu
foreign war.

MOONLIGHT Schools.

We have received lengthy commu-
nication from Madame Piotrowska, prin-
cipal Of the Moonlight School. giving in
detail the beginning, the conduct and
the conclusion of the school which was
conducted in this city. The same is 100
long for publication in this issue. and we
give excerpts from the same.
First, the city school board offered the
school building for the use of this school.
Second, the registration was not what
it was expected to be, but there was a
general average attendance of about 25.
This work was divided into two depart
ments-the elementary and the advanc-
ed-and also department of Domestic
Science.
The school closed Dec. 18th, much to
the regret of pupils and teachers, both
regular and temporary. who had deHot-
ed themselves TO this noble work.
Arrangements have been made where
by the school will be continued, and the
rooms have been generously donated TO
it by Mrs. James Bennett and are locat-
ed over Perry's drug store. The same
will be furnished by using the chairs of
the Woman's Club and other equipment
will be added by Oldham 81 Lackey,
Owen Mckee and the Normal Training
Department. Mr.. d. B. Shackelford
contributed some hardware and Mrs. l..
r. Blanton a CARLOAD of coal. The ma
terial for the Domestic Science depart
ment has been donated by Mr.. Allen
Earring. Owen Mckee, Joe Giunchigli-
ami, Covington & Tharpe, Mckinney &
Deatherage, r. II. Mckinney, E. s.
Virgins, Mrs. S. B. Hume and Mrs
Lynn.
The social feature of the school ha:
been we'll cared for by Miss E. French
Mrs. 1. Huguely, Mrs. G. ID. Smith, Mrs
J. G. Crabbe and Miss Emma Watts
The regular list of teachers was occa
sionally assisted by some of the ladies o
3 the city.
The communication concludes will

We're thinking today of our dear old State
OF what it has been in the past;

Of the glory that record cast.
Many are the names we're proud of
today
Kentucky's roll of fame.
Many were the leaders in days of old,
And we cherish each great name.
Refrain-We're thinking today, talking
today,
Singing of our dear old State.
We 'er thinking todayof our dear old State
How it fell from its high place,
How it lost its step on the onward march,
How it took the laggard's place.
Many were the years that it fingered
behind,
While forward the great world swung
Many were its children that through
their lives,
To bare existence chung.
Refrain-We're thinking today, grieving
today,
Mourning for our dear old State
We're thinking today of our dear old State
OF its FIGURE, not its past,
For the children's cry hath snapped the
spell,
Kentucky reused at last.
Many are the minds that are work
ing today
Minds that can will and plan;
Many are the souls that are eager t,
serve,
And uplift the children of men.
Refrain-We're planning today, work

Praying for our dear old State

CAUSE FOR ALARM
Catarrh Danger Sign. Hyomei
The Remedy--Guaranieed
By B. l.. Middleton.

There is no moro annoying, likewise
serious ailment than catarrh, which is
indicated by shifting, raising of mucous
and frequent colds. If it is not cured it
will surely affect the lining of the air
passages, and frequently destroys the
hearing.
Hyomei is the effective and reliable
remedy for all catarrhal ilIs-you breathe
it, using small inhaler that comes
with every complete outfit. The anti
septic medication of Hyomei simply has
to reach all the sore, raw and inlamed
surfaces of the air passages. Its heal
ing begins at once-you feel better after
the first treatment-even almost hope
less cases respond quickly.
Hyomei is inexpensive, and surely
gives quick and permanent benefit. B.
L. Middleton sells it on the Mcclure
no-pay" plan. You certainly can afford
to try this harmless remedy when there
is nothing to pay if not benefited. ADV.
