those little women whom any man
would be proud to call mother. A
few evenings before 1 had been a
visitor at her home. She was sorting
over lot of clothes to send to some
poor children, and among the rest was

WARNING TO
AUTO OWNERS

The Automobile Department at
Frankfort will contribute to the
State road fund for the year 1915
about Sl20, 600. This is double
the receipts of any previous year.
When the 1915 plates were
ordered, more than a year ago,
it was estimated that 10, 600 pairs
would be sufficient but more than
Is, 500 have already been issued.
The total receips of the office to
date this year are $l02, coo and
would have been very materially
increased but from the fact that
5, $50 old cars and all new cars
have paid only the proportionate
part of the fee for the license to
rub to Jan. lst 1916.
When the Acts of the General
Assembly of 1914 became etfec-
tive there were 5, $50 licenses
that did not expire Jan. LIST, but
ran into 1915. These We're the
Series &c" licenses with tags Of
black with letters in white. This
has caused much confusion as
there were two kinds of tags
good during the first six months
of 1915 and many people laboring
under the mistaken impression
that a large number of cars We're
being operated on improper il
censes. This confusion was re-
moved on June 10th and all tags
now in use should show the date
1915" on the right hand end OF
the plates.
Local officers in many places
are arresting all motorists seen
with improper tags, and TO avoid
trouble all drivers should see
that cars are registered for this

Indicate tuberculosis are given below:
First.-A cough that hangs ON for
more than month.
Secoud.--A gradual, steady loss OF
weight, and often of appetite.
Thild.--A slight reverish condition,
lasting Il little while every afternoon
Fourth.--A loss of strength VI en-
ergy.
Fifth Streaks Of red In the sputum.
Sixth. Swcats ut night.
Any one of these things may indicate
tuberculosis. and they may indicate
something else. If any one of them
persists more than Il month without
any sim Of recovery. go 10 doctor
and ask for careful examination. Ii
may not be tuberculosis, but 1t is best
to know exactly.
DO not trust in any patent medicine
to relieve you Of amy Of these symp'
toms. Most patent medicines do more
harm than good.
