THE KENTuc KHAN
FOR 1917

The Kentuckian on Jan. l. 1917, rounds outfits
18th year Under normal conditions the year 1916
would have been year of unusual prosperity but
as the public is aware the exorbitant and unprece-
dent price charged for News Print Paper cut a
deep hole in the profits Of all newspapers and many
unable to stand losses were put out of business.
The Kentuckian enters the new year with print
paper that cost S54 ton at this time last year now
costing about $40 for the same amount of paper
not as good. How long these conditions will con-
tnue cannot be foretod.
Many newspapers have advanced rates but in
order that the circulation may not be lessened by
higher price the Kentuckian will still be sent for
$500 a year, the old price 1t will be necessary
though to adhere rigidy to the cash system, since
more than S1.00 must be paid in advance for the
paper upon which we print 156 papers and the cost
of printing leaves but little profit out of the second
dollar. We are asking our old subscribers to stand
by us in this crisis by renewing promptly. Adver-
Users will also be asked to pay slightly higher
rate for space, which is all newspaper has to sell
outside of it's subscriptions. We trust the a1ver-

STOMACH UPSET?
Get at the Real Cause-Take DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

That's what thousands of stomach
sufferers are doing now. Instead Of
taking tones, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the ailment - clogged liver
and disordered bowels.

liver in soothing, healing way. When
the liver and bowels are performing their
natural functions, away goes indigestion
and stomach troubles.
If you have bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated, appetite poor,
lazy, don't-care feeling, no ambition or
energy, troubled with undigested foods,
you should take Olive Tablets, the sub.
stitute for calomel.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their
olive color. They do the work without
gripping. cramps or pain.
Take one or two at bedtime for quick
relief. so you can eat what you like,

Why is it that the classes must

glory, the last days of october? Why
do people have cider, apples, dough-
nuts and pumpkin pie for eats" ?
Why do they mask in sheets, tell
blood curdling ghost stories, and
moan and groan? Why do they walk
backward down cellar steps, holding
a mirror? Why do they bob for ap-
pies, destroying their complexion
and teeth as we'll? Why do they
have witches riding on broomsticks,
black cats, big yellow pumpkins, and
whole shocks of corn for decoration
Cannot anybody establish something
different? Perhaps the freshmen
can We should like to know, like
