Bad Physical SIGN.

The sudden cessation of pain is
often as bad sign as it's beginning
In appendicitis or some other acute
inflammation of the right side of the
abdomen sudden cessation of pain
may be of the gravest import, par
ticularly if not associated with a cor
responding drop in the temperature
or pulse rate. Under such circum-
stances it is an unfailing index of
gangrene or rupture of the appendix
or of breaking down of the barriers
between an abscess and the general
peritoneal cavity.

FAMOUS MARCHES ON RECORD
soldiers Have Done Some Extraordl
nary Work When There Has Been
Necessity for 1t.

just before the battle of Mons the
Germans marched 80 miles between
seven o'clock in the evening and
eight in the morning. The Germans
were IN heavy marching order, and
lhe TACT that the march was mostly
oy night made the feat more remark
aole. At a later stage of the war
three allied divisions are said to have
marched 81 miles in eight hours.
These two marches are considered as
among the most extraordinary of the
war.
A military work published some
years ago says that no army can
march more than 200 miles in Is
days. Napoleon considered 21O miles
IN ~ days good marching record
One writer estimates the average rate
OF march Of small bodies of infantry
at 234 miles an hour. The same au-
thorlty declares that an army corps
can march but two miles an hour.
In 1870, during the flank march
that ended for them so disastrouslv
at Sedan, the French marched but
912 miles day. The most rapid
march of any large body of foot SOL
dlers during the Napoleonic wars is
said to have been that of General
Crawford after the battle of Tala-
vera. Crauford's men marched 62
English miles in 21 hours.
But though the physical endur-
ance of man is little if any greater
than it ever was, when he is COM
PEELED to trust to his own muscles,
the mobility of armies has been enor-
mously increased by railroads and
automobiles.

To Clean Watch Chains.

Gold or silver watch chains can be
cleaned with very excellent result,
no matter whether they be mat or
polished, by laying them for few sec
onds in pure aqua ammonia. They
should then be rinsed in alcohol, and
finally shaken in clean sawdust, free
from sand. Imitation gold and plated
chains should be cleaned in benzine,
then rinsed in alcohol, and afterward

PHEASANT DISTRIBUTION

In March, 1915, distribution of Eng.
lish ringneck pheasants was made by
the Commission. These birds were
purchased in England and shipped to
Philadelphia, where they were received
by a representative of the Commission
and shipped in crates of fifteen birds,
ten hens and five cocks, to each coun.
ty in the state, where they were re-
ceived and separated into trios, two
hens and a cock, and these birds were
liberated by persons with whom the
Commission had made arrangements,
on lands controlled by them.
Reports from 70 counties show an in
crease of 1856 birds, which indicates
a gratifying condition and places the
number of these splendid game birds
at liberty in Kentucky at something
above six thousand. Some of the birds
were held in captivity, but in nearly
every instance these experiments re-
suited in failure, but the birds that
were turned loose and allowed to rear
their own young, in practically every
instance produced and raised a covey.
The result of these experiments
have so encouraged the Commission
that another importation of pheasants
is planned, and we hope to liberate
three thousand more of these birds in
the spring of 1916. The distribution of
pheasants aroused great interest, and
we received many requests for set
tings of eggs and purchased 500 from
a game dealer in Pennsylvania, which
were sent by parcels post to those who
had applied. We also shipped 265 from
the Kentucky Game Preserve on Pine
Mountain, in Bell county.
The reports show that large per-
centage of eggs did not hatch, and
where broods were Matched they soon
died, so the distribution proved a
failure.
1t is unlawful to kill any ringneck
pheasant at any time of the year, and
the Commission appeals to you for
your assistance in protecting them uu-
til they increase sufficiently to permit
hunting

SCARCITY! OF QUAIL

In 1911, during the session immedi-
ately preceding the creation of the
game laws, the Federal Government
discovered that large quantities of
quail were being sold in the northern
and eastern markets, and that these
birds had been shipped in violation of
the federal laws covering interstate
shipments of game.
The commission firms distributing
these birds were all prosecuted, and
by tracing the shipments to the firms,
the Government officials discovered
that great quantities of the quail had
come from Kentucky; in fact, 10000
were shipped out of Kentucky in 1911,
1900 being shipped from two points
in Gallatin county.
All of the parties making illegal
shipments were tried in the federal
courts of Kentucky and convictions
followed in every case. The United
States Government knew, in a general
way that shipments were being made
from Kentucky, but in this work, as in
other branches of the Government
they desired to help only those states
who were making an honest endeavor
to help themselves.
1t was the common practice of the
larger hotels and restaurants in Ken
lucky, before the creation of the Game
and Fish Commission, to annually sell
large quantities of quail Illegally
bought and sold A number of cases
were made against one of the leading
hotel companies in Kentucky, and we
are pleased to say that this Illegal
practice has been stopped.

against whom every mans hand should
be raised, it will not be long until we
shall again see the fields and forests
full of game and Kentucky affording
some of the best field sport in the
country.
Now, Mr.. Hunter, won't you help by
setting good example and spreading
the sentiment for obedience to the law
wherever you go? Condemn the I'M
lawful hunter and the pot hunter and
try to show him the light. If he does
not take kindly to your suggestions,

wardens in your county and the Office
of the Commission at Frankfort Boost
the game and thereby make more
pleasure for yourself and at the same
time increase the value of the license
for which you pay. The money you
pay for your license is your contribu-
ton towards the enforcement of the
law and the propagation of game. Get
behind your money with your personal
influence and conditions are bound to
improve.
Lawful to XIII.
Quail, rabbits, squirrels, woodcock,
wild duck, wild goose, can be shot
from November Is to January 1.
Unlawful to Ship.
1t is unlawful to ship quail, native
pheasant, or wild turkey within the
State of Kentucky at any time, but
these birds, when lawfully killed and
| in possession of the hunter, may be
carried by the hunter, or in the bag
gage cars, when properly marked.
When shipping rabbits, squirrels, or
wild ducks, within or without the
state, the package should be plainly
marked, giving the contents of the
| package, and the name and address of
| the consignor as we'll as that of the
consignee.
1t is unlawful to ship any game out
of the state, or the hides of fur-bear-
| ing animals, without clearly marking
the package as above directed. To
| ship unmarked is in violation of the
interstate laws, and is punishable in
| the federal courts by heavy fine and
| Imprisonment.
Remember that it is unlawful to ship
either within or without the state, by
| freight, express, parcels post, or any
| common carrier, any quail, native
| pheasant, or wild turkey.
Now, Mr.. Hunter, you will say if ap-
preached that you intend to get your
license before hunting. 1t is neces-
sary to purchase your license from
the county clerk of the county in
which you reside. There will be many
hunters in the fields on the opening
day, November Is. What would be the
condition at your county clerks office
if you waited until November IA to
get your license? There would be con-
gestion. You would stand in line many
hours waiting your turn and then pos
sibly go away without it. You had
made your arrangements to go hunting
early the next morning and would go
afield without your license. Mr.. Game
Warden would happen along and you
would be distressed and embarrassed.

Frankfort, Ky Especially - The
Game and Fish Commission since the
last report has convicted sol men for
violation of the law. They took the
chance of beating the wardens. How
much better it would have been for
them to have taken out their license.
They would have had the satisfaction
enforcement of law and contributing
to better game conditions and were
not cheaters.
The money collected for sale of
hunters license has been, and is be-
ing, economically spent for the en-
forcement of the laws and the re-
stocking of the fields and streams with
game and fish.
The Commission is taking this
means of again warning the hunters,
not only to take out their license, but
to always carry them when hunting.
English Pheasants.
The $500 English pheasants liberated
by the Commission are protected for a
number of years, and a warning is
hereby given to every one who kills
these valuable and costly birds, that
if caught, he will be prosecuted.
Now, Mr. Hunter, If you see a strange
bird do not run your legs off to destroy
it, but take every possible means not
to injure it yourself, and do not let
an opportunity escape you to urge
others to do likewise. These pheasants
that they are protected until they in
crease sufficiently to allow shooting.
Conditions in other States.
In other states where conditions are
not so ideal as here they now have
pheasants in plenty. 1t is up to you,
Mr.. Hunter, to do your part to help
the Commission protect them. Get
busy. Your wardens will be in the
field every day during the hunting sea-
son and for a considerable time be-
forehand, to see that each hunter has
his license, and that the Sooner" is
curbed in his selfish desire. Please
help the wardens, remembering that
they are working for and not against
you. We want to enlist the active CO.

want you to realize that it is you who
are being cheated by the game hog,
the pot hunter and the chap who hunts

work. However, the state is large and
unless the sportsmen and farmers re-
port the infractions of the hunting
laws, either to the wardens or to the
State Department, some violators are
bound to escape.
Hunters Themselves Lose.
What we wish to impress upon the
sportsman who takes out his license
and obeys the law, is that every viola
tor Is cheating him. Those who set

some extent succeeds in robbing the

which he spends his money in purchas.
