Money From Snakes.

Lewis Anthony, well-known Ware
farmer, expects to take legal action
against a negro named John Ham
mond because the negro killed a large
rattlesnake on Mr.. Anthony's farm, ac
cording to a Waycross e(Ga.) CORE
spondent of the New York Sun.
Mr.. Anthony catches all snakes in
his settlement and sells them, and he
figures hat the negro has caused him
a loss of at least 81 in killing the rat
tier.
Hammond was working near Mr.
Anthony's farm, and when he saw
n rattler he lost no time in getting
1t out of the way. The snake had
thirteen rattles and a button.

Admirers of the shepherds check
In cloths for tailored suits-and these
are many-were given a very great
variety in models this spring to choose
from. Those suits for which small
checks were chosen, cut on simple,
but carefully thought out lines, proved
to be the most successful. A great
many of them we're made with short
wasted box coats. A less number had
short jackets, and some of the smart
est were designs in which semifitting
coats figured. Skirts were nearly al.
way plain, moderately wide and
somewhat fiaring. The advance of the
season proved that the suits of shep-
herds check received a merited ap-
probation. The pretty spring suit be-
comes the crisp midsummer suit by a
variation of the shoes and hats worn
witt 1t, and is a paying investment
for street wear.
One Of them is illustrated here. The
perfectly tailored skirt is plain with
moderate flare and cut instep length.

The Jacket is among the modest num-
Der made with normal waist line,
which rises a little at the back, where
plaits are depended from the belt. 1t
Is cut In points at the front, is longer
than at the back and is shaped by
small plaits laid in at each side. The
belt terminates at these plaits.
The shoulders are somewhat long
and SO are the plain coat sleeves. The
fiaring turnover collar is cut in three
pieces and unusually well adjusted.
Bali buttons in three sizes are used
for fastening and trimming.
The suit is worn with low shoes and
black cloth CATERS, to be changed to
white for midsummer wear The sailor

border in black and white stripe, is
trimmed with small pompons of black
feathers with long curving ribs ex-
tending from them. White neck rufus

all the molding was done by hand, he

the clay?" The workman replied:

(By D.. WARD KING.)
A road-drag is any cheap wooden
continuance that will move a little
earth to the middle of the road and
leave the surface smooth. Any drag
is a good drag, but the split-log or
~double-slab drag is by far the best.
The directions for use are simple as

side OF the right-hand wheel track,

toward town to your neighbor's front

over the other wheel track.
After the next rain perform the
same operation. When this has been

a background of ribbon with a narrow
border in black. Little June roses are
set in the wreath. The ribbon band
is extended into sash ends at the back.
Near the brim a little cluster of roses
Is tied into the sash with a bow. The
coloring is pale pink with the narrow

The Elizabethtown News says:

The Elizabethtown News says:
The fight for a platform con-
vention before the primary
seem to be growing in popu-
lar favor, due to changed po-
litical conditions. The News
will be for IL If We think ii
necessary to save the party
from defeat.
That is a sensible, manly way OF
looking at the matter. All along
Editor Sommers has been against
an ante-primary convention. but he
IS willing to be reasonable in his at
titude, as always. for the party's
sake. Quite different from two OF
three other Democratic papers that
contend for an after-the-primary
convention and defiantly close their
remarks with "and that is when II
is going to be held" Better have a
convention before the voting and
then the platform will be of the peo-
pies making and not of the little
bunch of candidates.

There is no law in this country
that is absolutely immutable against
violation. The best that any law
can do is to afford restraint and
penalties against certain acts or Of
lenses. There is a law against muir
der. but people will continue to kill
each other. There is law against
theft, but stealing goes on. Some
people contend that prohibition of
the liquor traffic does not stop
drinking or the selling of liquor.
Certainly not-altogether. But does
any other law absolutely prohibit
named offenses? Must We license
men to kill, to steal, to sell mind
and body destroying liquor. simply
because We think they will pay no
attention to prohibitory laws?

THE TWO AMENDMENTS
TO THE CONSTITUTION
Voted On Last Year Will Be
Re.Submitted At Next
General Election.

Ant WV th-hNhN
ments adopted by the people in 1911;
and nullified by the failure of th'
Secretary of State to advertise then
within the time limit fixed by tbs
Constitution, have been resubmittet
by the General Assembly and arc
again to be voted on at the election
of this year.
The first provides for revision oil
a tax system under which the farm.
er pays ninety cents of every dollar
collected in taxes. The second pro-
vides for the working of the con-
victs on the public roads.
Heretofore opposition to a revis-
ion of the tax system has been bas-
ed on the tehory that il would work
injury to the farmer. Its chief ad-
vocates have been those politicians
whose chief stock in trade
has been their pose as the Farm
er's Friend" The popular vote in
1913 served warning that the farm
err in Kentucky had already begun
to do his own thinking. Nothing
has since occurred to cause him to
doubt the wisdom of that course.
In the matter of convict labor on
the roads, strong opposition is GER
tain to be encountered from the
prison labor contractors, whose prof
its from slave labor will be cut off
should the amendment carry. I'm
til now, these contractors, through
an offensive and defensive alliance
with the political machine in power,
have successfully resisted any at
tempt to interfere with their spec
ial privileges.
This year 104 of the 100 counties
in Kentucky have asked and been
granted financial aid by the State in
tine building of their roads. The
Federal Government has promised
its assistance in the form of civil
engineers and expert bridge build
ers. That convict labor on roads
is as efficient as free labor and that
the cost is less than half, has been
by actual test in more
than a score of States. Kentucky
has entered on the most comprehen-
sive scheme of road building of any
of the States of the South. Convict
labor will help in the working out
of that program.
There is every reason to believe
that the popular vote on the adop-
tion of both amendments will be as
decisively affirmative as it was two
years ago. There is reason to be-
lieve that the Secretary of State will
not again overlook the fact that the
imposes on him a min
isterial duty in connection with the
adoption of constitutional amend
ments. That duty is to advertise
the fact that a vote is to be taken
at least niney days before the cleo
ton. The Secretary of State can, if
he will. begin the work of adver-
Using now. There Is nothing in
the Constitution to prevent him.
There is the memory of his former
unfortunate forgetfulness to incite
Times.

Sometimes you hear the newspa-

worship" said: Burke said that
there we're three estates in Parlia-
ment, but in the reporters gallery
yonder there sat a fourth estate
more important far than they ALL
This was in 1889 or 1910. The
term is applied to all in the news
