Don't Have to Have 1t

I want to say a word through
the columns of the Advocate in
regard to the use of liquor.
We have in our community, lots
of sickness, some have colds,
some lagrippe, some fever; and
some are members Of the church
who say that they have to have
whiskey, as a cure for this dis
ease. Some people think that
when their children have a cold
that they must have whiskey to
break it up, but this is a sly way
and an excuse to get the whiskey
for themselves. The people ought
to wake up to a just sense of their
duty, and teach that this is bad
practice and to forever leave it
off.
Parents, this is leading your child
rem down to hell as fast as time
can roll on, the time has come
when you cannot tell the church
member from any one else, they
cannot be told from the worldly
ones. We ought to have some
way in which to stop this terri
BILE debauch and l hope that the
time is not far distant, that there
will be something done for the
children Of this country to save
them this sin and shame.
Yours for better times,
j. H. Gibson,
Hopper, KY.

There IL considerable talk
about the danger of war n the
United States. The most i'm
minent danger that threatens
this country is not war, but
peace. For then Europe's hord-
es Of relocating, two-bit labor
ers will crowd our industrial en-
terprises, depriving American
workingmen Of their food and
clothes. Such is Free-Trade's
prospect.

Fire Destruction

Last Tuesday evening about
3o'clock the fire alarm was sound
ed and it was found that it was
the new brick of James Bullock
on Broadway St., but the Fire
Department soon had the flames
under control, but not until it had
done great damage to the house
and its contents.
The house a two story with 8
rooms and cost a considerable
amount.

WHAT CATARRH IS

It has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
Of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
II any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in SCOTS Emulsion which Is
medicinal food and a building-tonic, free
rom alcohol or any harmful drugs. Tryit.

We want it understood that
we are in favor of the building
of railroads and the developing
Of our town and county. We
want to see the proposed line OF
railroad built from this place by
way of Indian Creek, Wilton and
to Corbin; it now seems that this
will be done in order to surround
the steep grade between Eman-
uel and Grays on the present line
of said road, but we would re-
greet to see this change made If
1t means the destruction of Knox
Counties only resort for recrea-
ton and health, Dishman Springs
we understand that two prelemi-
nary surveys have been made
through the springs property,
one of these surveys going on the
side of the creek next to the lake,
spring and houses, it is hard to
believe that the railroad compa-
ny has any intention of adopting
or locating said, if built, on the
side of the creek next to the
springs, lake or house. 1t would
hurt the value of the lake and
in all probability, the springs and
void destroy the beautiful ground
that surround the place.
All the people of Barbourville
and the county are in a way in
terested in the preservation of
this resort, it is one place where
the people who live in Knox Coun-
ty, can without money or price
and without hinderance go for
q days outing and pleasure, and
they are always welcome to go
there and roam at liberty over
the beautiful grounds, and drink
from the best health giving water
supplied by natures lavish hand.
The owner, Judge Dishman, has
gone to a great deal of pains and
gone to a great expense in max
ing this an ideal place. He en-
joys the visits made by all the
people and is always glad to see
them come end enjoy themselves.
We believe that the Railroad Co.
will take the other route, the one
on the other side of the creek,
and that they will not destroy the
lake, spring or interfere with the
buildings, for dollars and cents
are not considered by those who
want to keep these good things
that they already have, because
they would be hard, in fact, they
could not be replaced. Hundreds
go there every year for a days
rest and outing. They are used
to going and it is inconceivable
that the railroad would, when it
has another route that is just as
good as this one, would take or
destroy these places. They will
not do anything that would de-
prive the people of this their
place of recreation and enjoyment
and the place where they like to
60. We believe that the L & N.
Railroad Company is to conserva-
tive oe the peoples interest to do
anything that would hurt them,
or that would not be for the bet
torment of the peoples general
welfare, So we do not believe
that there should be any unrest
about losing this the peoples,
haven of rest and refreshment.
