Are You One of Them

There are great many people
who would be very much benefited
by taking mberlain's Tablets for
a weak or disordered stomach. Are
YOU one of them? Mrs. NJ. X. Scarf.
Baldwinsville, n. Y, relates her eX-
periencc in the use of these tablets:
II had bad spell with my stomach
about six months ago, and was
troubled for two or three weeks with
gas and severe pains in the pit of my
stomach. Our druggist advised me
to take Chamberlains Tablets.
took bottle home and the first dose
relieved me wonderfully, and l kept
on taking them until | was cured" ."
These tablets do not relive pain, but
after the pain has been relieved may
prevent its recurrence.

HOW THEY DIFFER

State Senator Bal Trigg. Of Glas-
cow. who is a holdover member of the
Asked his view regarding his position
on the question of Statewide prohi-
bition, Senator Trigg declared that
he was opposed to confiscation of
properly under any euise.-Louisville
Times
The liquor men say that we must
compensate them. Well, VIXEN we
passed laws against the carrying Of
concealed weapons we did not com
pensatc the makers of revolvers for
the destruction of their business. and
when we pass laws on any subject we
do not compensate the people who
have invested in business that took
the chances of the law. and Of all the
businesses the liquor business is the
last business that should have asked
for compensation. Why, these men
have known the kind of business they
were engaged in: they have known
that hey threatened human life even
for the moderate drinker. They know
the lumber Of drunkards that they
trained for drunkards' graves, and
yet hey ask you to give them back
any money that they may lose by IN
ycst.ng in a business that they fully,
understood. Let them give back to
the mother the boy they took from
her and brought to drurkard's
grave: let them give back to the
wife the husband Of whom they de-
iiberatcly robbed her; let them give
,l,i a -
whom hey first converted into brutes
and drove to drunkard's graves, and
,hen we will talk about compcnsating
them for any pecuniGry loss they may
suffer Let them give back the price,
Of many things Of which they have
deprived society before they ask for
money recompense for the changing
of their business buildings from dis
reputable to respectable.
We don't take the brick out of a
wall if we close the saloon. We SIM
ply require that the building shall be
used for another purpose, and you
might as well say if you pass a law
prohibiting a man from using ms gun
to kill his fellowman you must buy the
gun from him as common justice:
Why, all we do is to say instead OF
selling something that only Pa wants
they shall sell something that the
whole family can use. These distil-
lcries will still stand, and in other
cities they have already commenced
to put them to better uses. At Flint,
Mich. one brewery sold its plant to
a Methodist church and it is now be-
inc used for religious purposes, an
| submit, over what
il was used for before. At Lansing,
Mich, there is a. brewery which is be-
ing converted into a factory for the
making of auto supplies, and at Sa-
lem. Ore, there was one which touch
ed my heart 1t was the conversion OF
a brewery into a Loganberry Juice
factory and the factory is now max
inc one-fourth of its output of Nlvo,
which is non-alcoholic. A brewery in
South Omaha is substituting a non
alcoholic for an alcoholic drink. An
other brewery in st. Paul is doing
the same thing. Some are converted
into cold storage plants and one is
going into a yeast plant. There are
many things you can use building
for besides the manufacture of pois-
ON for the killing of your fellowmen.

Go Up AS Prospects OF Striking Oil
Increase All The Time

Much interest is being aroused all
over the south end of Lincoln coun-
ty over the drilling for oil which is
now being actively prosecuted in the
Buck Creek section. Gas from the
first well struck on the Albert Schulz
er place is still being used for fuel,
and Mr.. Schiller has had his home
piped and is using the gas for heat
ing and Illumination purposes Land
values have almost doubled in that
section within the past few months,
and everyone seems certain that oil
is bound to be found. This field seems
to lie in the direct pcth from the Es-
till fields and the Wayne county oil
fields, the experts say. That oil Is
certainly somewhere under Lincoln
is believed by almost everyone, the
only question beiEg whore to strike
it. The Mt. Vernon and Somerset pa
pcrs both tell of the oil interest in
those counties, which also lie in the
belt in which Lincoln is located. The
Mt. Vernon Signal said last week:
The oil development has been tenn
porarily suspended during the win
ter months, but this does not mean
that the interest in the ROCkcastle
oil field has been lessened. The open
ing of spring will see a number Of
wells going down, judging from. re
ports and the effort that is being
made to secure leases. There is not
a tract of land in the county which
has not already been leased or earn
estly solicited by dozen lease takers.
I l.. e.

that company. They expect to re
sumo operations in the early spring.
and will probably go 400 or 500
/ feet deeper with that well which is
/ now down about | 200 feet. The sim
! liar conditions exist with the drilling
, at Brodhead and also on Clear Creek
! If Rockcastle has the oil which all
/ oil men believe she has, there is no
question but that it will be found by
next June at the outside.
The Somerset journal said Of oil
developments in Pulaski:
There is little doubt but what there
will be extensive drilling operations
in Pulaski with the coming Of spring.
A great many foreign companies that
have leased land in this county it is
said will devclope their holdings as
the weather opens up. These men
look upon Pulaski as a rich field. \
good many of the companies that have
struck it rich in Estill county have
several thousand acres leased in Pu-
laski. A plan is on foot to organize a
local company and put down several
wells. Several of the business men of
the city have signitied their intention
of taking stock in such a concern, rea-
lizing the fact that should oil be
found here, it would be Il big boom
for the county. Within the last week
inquiry has come from New York and
Oklahoma oil men about conditions
here. They say they have had excel

The great trouble with the sensi-

YOUR BOYS CHUM.

If you are father, are you ac-
quainted with your boys chum? Do
you know him to be fit company for
your on?
Every normal boy has singled out
from his friends and acquaintance
one particular chum, This chum is
his "other self" all of the "other self
he will have until years of maturity
develop in him the sex attraction.
If you have studied boy nature, or
even if you can recall your own boy
hood days, you must know that they
are the days wherein the lasting i'm
pressions of life are formed. 1t is al
so the period when the domination of
a strong personality is the most po-
tent for good or evil over a weaker or
more plastic nature.
Have you studied your boys chum
1t may be almost as necessary as a
study Of the boy himself. Is that
ehum all you could wish him to be /? Is
he stronger, or weaker, Of purpose and
character than your boy? If stronger
all the more reason for you to know
his real character, for he is as sure to
impress his personality upon you son
as that strength overcomes weakness,
The boy rarely develops habits or
traits of character acquired from mere
chance acquaintanees or from stran-
gers. It is from his intimates that he
absorbs ideas that become fixed in the
The states-graphic. (Brownsville, Tenn.) 1???-1984, 1917-02-16

mind and develop into character. Hence
the imperative necessity that those in
Inmates be of the right character
Some think it is a risky business to
ATTEMPT to regulate a sons friend
ships. Admittedly so, yet you have
it in your power to in large degree
control the matter.
Evesy normal boy has a great res
pect for his father, provided that fla
ther il deserving Of his respect. The
first step, therefore, is to secure and
deserve the boys confidence This ac-
complished, little tactful considera-
ton on your part, together with per-
sonal interest in his every day life,
ought to give You control of the sit
uation.
But the surest way to control that
is to constitute yourself the boys
chum. This can be done if the matter
is taken in hand early in the boys life.
To every young boy his father is a
model Of perfection. His first boyish
ambition is to initiate his father. If
that father is deserving of imitation
and will cultivate his boys confidence
the problem is solved
Every father should seek first place
in his boys confidence. He should
make certain that he stands higher in
the boys regard than all others. And
as the years pass he should see to it
that the bond is strengthened instead
of weakened. But this can only be done
by fully entering into the life of the
boy and making his life your life.
1t will pay better than any other in
vestment you can make.
