KENTUCKY'S OLDEST MAN TO
VISIT BLUE GRASS FAIR.

LEXINTON, KY, July "a
John Shell, the oldest man in the
world, being credited with from one
hundred and sixteen to one hundred
and thirty-one years, will be invited
to come from his home on Greasy
Creek, Leslie county, to the Blue
ass Fair, the first week in Septem-
Der as the guest of the Fair associa-
ton.
If he comes, Mr.. Shell will cele-
tbrate his birthday here. He will be
either 116, as he thinks, or 131, as
some records show, on Sept. 3. He
says that day will find him 116 years
old, to the best Of his recollection,
but Henry Chappell, who lives in
the same neighborhood, says he has
seen tax receipt showing Mr.. Shell
paid taxes in 1909, when he would
have had to be 81 years old.
Whether he is 116or 131, Mr.. Shell
will be given rousing reception if
he accepts the invitation to come to
Lexington.

GOV. BLACK ENCOURAGESssMOON-
LIGHT SCHOOL" MOVEMENT

Kentucky's Governor has issued
the following message of encourage
ment and appreciation of the moon
light school teachers and those who
are fighting to wipe out Kentucky's
illiteracy before the census of 1920
is taken:
while the countries of Europe
rebuild their ruined cities and reha-
bilitate their industries, it is our
privilege in the United States to re-
habilitate the lives of our fellow cit
liens. One of the most necessary and
most noble reconstruction tasks is to
teach all those who are unable, to
read and write. We must do this be-
fore the Commonwealth and the ma
ton can make great advancement.
1.-The teachers and citizens of Ken
lucky are pioneers in this movement,
which has now become nationwide
and has even been attempted in other
countries. The movement which they
have so unselfishly fostered, de-
mands the best that is in us all at
this time when the last battle of this
crusade against illiteracy in Ken
lucky is being waged.
Il honor the moonlight school
teachers and set a high value upon
the service which they are volun-
teering to render to humanity and to
the State. May that service enrich
their own lives as much as it will
bless their fellow-men and the great
Commonwealth of Kentucky.

Bring Back its Color and Lustre
with Grandma's Sage
Tea Recipe.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and

troublesome. An easier way Is to get

by the addition of other ingredients
a large bottle, at little cost, at drug
stores, known as "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" thus avoiding a
lot OF muss.
While gray, faded hair is not sinful,
we all desire TO retain our youthful
appearance and attractiveness. BY
darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one
can tell, because IL does IL so natural
ly. so evenly. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with IL and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time; by morning
all gray hairs have disappeared. After
another application or two your hair
becomes beautifully dark. glossy, soft
, and luxuriant and you appear years
younger. Wyeths Sage and Sulphur
Compound Is delightful toilet requi-
site. II is not intended for the cure,

Seminole Indians Taken
Under Uncle Sans Wing
in Florida Everglades

In the least known WILDERNESS Of
America, the Everglades of Flarida,
where no white man can find his way
unguided, 600 full-blooded Seminole
Indians have at last been officially
discovered" Ever since the INDIAN
war in 1912 the Indians In Florida
have not been recognized by the gov
eminent or the state. They were sup
posed to have been removed to west
ern reservations or hunted and shot by
white traders who coveted their land.
But a remnant of the great Seminole
tribe persisted i'm Florida, eluding the
government agents and retreating foot
by foot before white people who claim
ed to have purchased their lands, till
they finally made their homes In the
maze of unexplored swamps, studded
with thousands of luxuriously vege-
tated islands, which form the Ever
glades. The government finally has
been persuaded to grant them 100000
acres of land for an Indian reservation
under an Indian commissioner.
The Seminoles live in an absolutely
primitive state, in matched huts. They
are afraid Of the camera, they wonder
at the telephone, the automobile, the
train and the commonest conveniences.
They are suspicious of the white man
and his government. Yet when on oc-
casional trips to the villages they
learned of the war with Germany they
showed themselves no slackers.
They are a remnant Of few thou
sand Seminoles who disappeared into
the Everglades when the government
agents started to move them west.

Child labor has decreased more than

S5 per cent of the mills now are oper-

Thou broken heart too crushed to moan
