FAMILY SUFFERS SEVERELY
FROM PTOMAINE POISONING

Ptomaine poisoning, presumably
caused by eating fresh fish, came
near having serious consequences
for DR.. and Mrs. William X. Dudley,
and their daughter, Miss Frances
Dudley, who reside near Hutchinson.
The family had partaken of fish for
dinner, and in a short time after
symptoms of ptomaine poisoning be-
came manifest, and little later all
three became violently ill. Physi-
clans were summoned who admins
tered remedies and soon had them
out of danger.

day, owing to the fact that almost
everyone who could find means OF

SEARCHING FOR MISSING BOY.

oodTCh Delng conducted Tor EV-
erett Blevins, aged fifteen, who left
MS nome in Mt. Sterling, to enlist in
the navy, his father, Mr.. George Blew
ms came to Paris from Mt. Sterling,
wednesday, after search at other
places, the result of which proved
fruitless.
Mr.. Blevins stated that his son left
nome about ten days ago with the
remark that he was going to Lexing-
ton enlist in the navy. Inquiry at
the Lexington recruiting office de-
veloped the fact that the young man
was turned down on account of his
age. He stated there that he was
eighteen years old, but could not pro-
duce proof, and the officials being
skeptical, would not accept him.
Mr.. Blevins said that his son was
in his fifteenth year, and that his
leaving home under the circumstan-
ces, and his prolonged absence had
been the cause of great grief and dis
,tress to his wife and himself. He
said that the boys were engaged in
raising big crop on the place, and
that the boy who had disappeared
was badly needed on the farm, and
that if he would return he would be
welcomed and no questions would be
asked. Mr.. Blevins was of the opin-
ion that his son was somewhere in
this county, where he had a large
number of young friends.
A description of the missing youth
was furnished the local authorities,
and a search will be made for him.
Mr.. Blevins will appreciate any infor-
nation in regard to the whereabouts
of his son, whose absence, he said
was only due to the fact that he
wanted to join the navy.

ger added that he would be glad to
hear from some of his friends and
acquaintances in Paris, as lying on

some stunt. Mrs. Arnsparger also
heard from her other son, Mr.. Cliff

at Fl Hamilton, New York. He had
received a promotion and had been
placed in command of a service
squad.

Some curious uses are found for

these pertains to the Spanish cedar
sawdust, which is of extreme light

in thrift. Ezekiel warned the children
of Israel that during the siege of Jeru-

He said: Take thou also unto thee
wheat, and barley, and beans. and
lentiles, and millet, and titches. and
put them in one vessel, and make thee
bread thereof. Ezekiel iv: Q. The
Bible shows that Ezekiel ordered the
children of Israel to eat their meat
by weight, and even thus only from
time to time"-Thrift Magazine.

TAXES HERE AND ABROAD.
BY OTTO II. KAHN.

Nothing is palmer than that bust
ness and business men had everything
to gain by preserving the conditions
which existed during the two and a
half years prior to April, 1917, under
which many of them made very large
profits by furnishing supplies, provi-
sions and financial aid to the allied
nations. Taxes were light, and this
country was rapidly becoming the
great economic reservoir of the world.
Nothing is palmer than that any sane
business man in this country must have
foreseen that, If America entered the
war; these profits would be immensely
reduced and some of them cut off en-
tirely, because our government would
step in and take charge; that it would
cut prices right and left, as, in fact, 1t
has done that enormous burdens of
taxation would have TO be imposed, the
bulk of which would naturally be borne
by the well-to-do in short, that the I'M
precedented golden flow into the cof-
fers of business was bound to stop with
our joining the war, or, at any rate, to
be much diminished.
But 1t is said the big financiers OF
New York were afraid that the money
loaned by them to the allied nations
might be lost if these nations were de-
feated, and therefore they maneuvered
to get America into the war in order to
save their investments.
Proof That the Charge Is Absurd.
A moments reflection will show the
utter absurdity OF that charge. Let us
assume, for arguments sake, that the
allies had been defeated. Let us make
the wildly improbable assumption that
they haa defaulted for the time being
upon these foreign debts, the greater
part of which. by the way, is secured
by the deposits of collateral in the
shape of American railroad bonds and
