THE PRICE SHE PAYS.

There is hardly an American woman nowadays who can keep pace with the demands made upon her time and energy without paying the penalty of ill-hcalth. It may be that dreadful backache. dragging pains, headaches, nervousness or the tor lures of a displacement. It is the price she pays. To women in this condition Lydia E. Pinkham's Vcgc- table Compound comes as a boon and a blessing. \ simple remedy made from roots and herbs which brings glorious health to suffering women. *

WHO Is VELVET JOE?
Have You Made Your Guess as tc
Identity Of the Philosopher?

who is Velvet Joe?'
That is a question which bids fair
to rank with the historic ones con-
corning the exact age of Ann and
who struck Billy Patterson?
Since the philosophical sayings and
verse from the pen of the sunny to-
bacco grower and thinker from Ken
lucky first appeared in the news
papers and maazines, rumors have
been rife as to his identity. Severa!
| professional humorists have already
pleaded mot guilty to the charge
of being alias Velvet Joe And
still, from out behind impenetrable
mystery flashes Velvet .Ioe's cherry
| wit and tender sentiment singing
the praises of the ogod tobacco he
| grows in old 'Kaintucky.'
But what matter who Joe is. as
long as his smiling face greets us as
we open our morning papers, as long
as his CHEEKY Good Eyenin is a
feature Of the evening editions?
Who is Velvet Joe?
Why. don't you know? He's the
patron saint of pipe smokers. He
takes the place of old Santa Claus for
those OF us who have put on long
pants and have to shave.
He's the friend who visits us by
our firesides, in our shops and offices,
telling us to light up our pipes and
remember that clouds have silver lin
ings and that ii ii didn't rain there,d
never be any rainbows with pots of
gold at the end of them.
He is the sort of optimist yam find
so often among men who love their
pipes, and draw from them the sunny
contentment that nature instils into
the mellow Burley leaf.
Who is Velvet Joe?
Ask the man who runs the cigar
stand on the corner. He will say:
"Oh. he's a friend of mine that's
helping me sell Velvet Smoking To
bacco. He's one of those cheerful
fellows that always has time TO he
kind and courteous and smiling even
when he's talking business.
Il wish there we're more like him.
So what does it matter what Vel
vet Joe's last name is? We know his
face and we know his sentiments. but
still
Now this is merely a suggestion.
If there are any Sherlock Holmeses

the vicinity of Lexington, in the Blue
Grass Country. sub
And If these inquisitiye ones should
run across a gentleman with CHEEKY
disposition and dropping white mus
tache who showed marked prefer
ence for tobacco called "Velvet.
perhaps
They might have the goods on
Velvet Joe himself
Be that as IL may, We are glad 20
say that Velvet Joe will continue to
be regular contributor to our cor
umns.

treatment. Stop and think! Reason

to Foley's Honey and Tar than to
