PHILANTHROPIST IS
IN LEXINGTON
His Theories On Humun Ills and Their
Correction Win Him Fame.

Lexington. February 3.
l.. I. Cooper, the millionaire phil
anthropist, who has been so widely
discussed turnout the East. is in Lex
ington. guest of the Phoenix Hotel.
Mr.. Cooper came to Kentucky from
New York. where he spent The past
nine months meeting the public and
explaining his views on health and
hygiene. MIR. Cooper is a man of rare
talents. magnetic fbrce and charm Of
manner. lie never ceases to surprise
you with the infinite variety Of his
knowledge and its absolute correct
ness and thoroughness.
Mr.. Cooper claims chiefly that most
of the Ill health of today is due almost
entirely to those habits which best
distinguish the white man from the
jungle. He says that nine times out of
ten it is the result. more or less, of
weakened, out-of-order stomach, and
that nine times out of ten these dis
orders are due to too much eating and
drinking or our careless method of
living.
But it is always possible. he says. to
make some effort toward healthful
living, and in connection with his lee
lures he is introducing his famous
medicine Tanlac to prove his theories.
Tanlac is called the magic medicine
and is made manly from the medic
inal properties of a plant discovered
during the researches of Cooper's
uncle. the renowned scientist, on an
island IN the Pacific ocean. west of
Mexico.
Compounded in Cooper's great lab
oratory, even as mysteriously as IA
nous mineral waters are formed. the
science of man, the chemists skill and
acquired medical lore. are set at de-
fiance by Tanlac so far as imitation is
concerned.
Tanlac. it is claimed. quickly over
comes stomach. kidney and intestinal
ailments. and will actually prolong life
by restoring and keeping up the vlgor
of youth.
In New York. Boston and Phiade-
phia, as well as in Lexington, thou
sands have been converted to Cooper's
theories and have been benefited by
his marvellous medicine.
MIR. Cooper is something of phil
anthropist. as he contributes large
proportion of his income annually to
charity and suffering people.
Mr.. Cooper gives the agency for his
medicine to one drug store in each
city. X. E. McRoberts has been
awarded the exclusive sale of Tanlac in
Lancaster and the remarkable medicine
can now be obtained at that store.

PROCLAMATION
BY THE MAYOR.
To the Citizens Of LANCASTER:

All persons residing in the City of
Lancaster, Ky, who have not hereto
fore been sufficiently vaccinated against
small pox are now urged TO be VAGINA
ted at once, The City Council at its
last regular meeting being informed
that many people in certain sections of
the County are now affected with the
disease and that il has been raging in
the County for some time past and that
sufficient steps have not been taken to
prevent its spread and that the disease
will not be stamped out under the pres
ent methods Of handling il. the Council
has ordered the Mayor TO take such
steps AS in his power to protect the
people of this City against the infec-
ton. il is, therefore. urged that all
persons in Lancaster who have not al
ready been sufficiently vaccinated be
vaccinated without delay. Unless the
people heed this warning the epedimic
is liable to become prevalent in this
City at any time which would necessi-
tate the closing Of the schools and be
great injury to the business interest of
the City. The first appearance of the
disease would require compulsory vac
cination. Very truly,
l.. G. Davidson, Mayor.

SCHOOL BOY FRANKS.

The committee that arranged for the
recent Harvard alumni banquet to the
football team coaxed Chinese laun-
dryman to don formal dress and pose
as a professor of the Imperial unIver
sity of China Signals were arranged
for indicating to the professor the
times when he was to stop. His re
marks" concerning his impressions of
Harvard and Yale football were ''in-
terpreted' by the Harvard humorist.
The professor proved the hit of the
banquet as scarcely any of the Har-
ward men were aware of the trick that
was being played.

Why all this effort getting an educa-
ton? Why all this spending of money,
erection of buildings, employment of
teachers? What is to be gained? Is it
to make a scientist who can go forth
into the world and by his knowledge be
able to control the elements and bring
them subservient to man? No not this.
is it to produce men and women who
can go forth into the field of Art, and
be able to chisel from marble or draw
on canvas. pictures as grand as those
of Michael Angelo, or a Raphael? No
not this.
Is it to send forth men and women
equipped with everything that goes TO
make them intelligent. who are able to
answer every question as to the con-
struction of our universe, and its age?
No. not this is the end of true education.
The object of the education of our
country, the object of the common
schools of our land is to produce men
and women endowed with every ele-
ment that will assist to make them
selves and the world better. Endowed
with every thought that will assist man
kind in more thoroughly and systema-
tically working out the end for which
they were created.
You remember the saying of Ralph
Waldo Emerson, that the prime object
of education is to produce men and
women. That does not mean walking
machines; that does not mean intellec-
tual machines; but that means men and
women who have hearts, as well as
minds; who look beyond the material
things OF this world, and look to hu.
mainly and to God for the elevation
and betterInent of mankind.
The common schools of our country
are its foundation stones; boys and girls
today are attending the schools of our
land who never will, or can. enter any
higher course. According to the last
census there were over fourteen million
boys and girls attending the public
schools Of our land, and not two per
cent Of that number graduated later
from our universities and colleges.
Then how necessary is it that the
common school system Of our country
should be made better How necessary
is II that every person connected with
the maintenance or support of our pub
lie schools should be a man or woman
thoroughly equipped for the service.
and should give to it their best thought.
The world today is seeking men and
women who are honest and upright. 1t
will not make them honest to be educa-
ted. II will not make them upright to
be intellectual. The training they re-
ceiye must come from persons them
selves who know what honesty and up
rightness means. and who will. by pre-
cept, as we'll as example. instill this
idea thoroughly into the minds and
hearts Of their pupils.

PROUD OF OUR
BOYS and GIRLS.

Our Graded School has the largest
senior class this year since it was
founded. We are so proud of it that
we are printing the names of the TWEEN
tv-two boys and girls who compose it.
During the wears that have passed
scores of diplomas have been handed
out as class after class of our young
people have stepped out OF school into
life's school. Would that we could, in
this issue of paper place before its
readers the familisr face of each and
every one, but since that is an impossi-
bility we will say when you meet with
a graduate of our school you meet with
one who is an honor to society. LAS
the twig is bent so the tree is inclin-
ed and habits were formed under the
moulding power of moral atmosphere
which has always seemed TO permeate
the schools of our little city which stays
by one thru life. Our school is indeed
the golden link that binds youth to age.
and however time may have furrowed
the cheek or silvered the hair there are
many who will recall, with softened
heart, the happy school days passed in
dear old Lancaster and wish these boys
and girls God speed. when they read
their names. Misses Ida Rainey, Mae

Greenleaf Whittier, the poet who wrote

that nameless school girl has made her

Her loving unselhshne SIS. once recorded,
becomes a bright example which time
cannot make dim.
Still sits the schooI-house by the road,
A ragged beggar summing;
Around it still the sumachs grow.
And blackberry vines are running.
Within, the master's desk is seen,
Deep SCARED by raps official;
The wsrping floor. the battered seats,
The jack knife's carved initial;
The charcoal frescoes on its wall;
Its doors worn SILL betraying
The feet that. creeping slow to school,
Went storming out to PLAYING
Long years ago winter sun
Shone over il at setting;
Lit up it, western window-panes,
Ano low caves icy fretting.
II touched the tangled golden curls,
And brown eyes full of grieving.
OF one who still her steps delayed,
When all the school were leaving.
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favour singled;
His cap pulled low upon face
Where pride and shame We're mingled.
Pushing with restless feet the snow
To right and left, he fingered
As restlessly her tiny hands
The blue checked apron fingered.
He saw her lift her eyes; he felt
The soft hands light earessing,
And heard the tremble Of her voice.
As il fault confessing.
'I'm sorry that spelt the word;
hate to go above you,
Because the brown eyes lower fell J.
Because. you see, love you'll"
Still memory to gray-haired man
That sweet child-face is showing,
Dear GIRL the grasses on her grave
Have forty years been growing!
He lives to learn. in life's hard school,
How few who pass above him
Lament their triumph and his losss.
Like her because they love him.
