EN HE well-groomed woman whom
you meet at the breakfast ta-
@ bic, office or shops is the Cne
who never ignores her bedtime
toilet. no matter what the hour OF re-
tircment. She believes it Just as es-
sential TO retire wholesomely clean,
giving certain toilet details their atten-
uon, as to emerge refreshed in the
morning. SAYS Hortense. No woman
in the world is more appreciative OF
THIS simple truth than the French
woman, no matter her social caste,
and to this is due their immaculate ap-
pearauce which makes an instant ap-
peal. especially to foreigners. Where
the rising hour is an carly one. the
business woman cannot AFFORD To make
q leisurely morning toilet. Where Ger
tain details have been attended To tho
night before, her toilet is made in half
the time. and the nervous FURRY, eAo@-
cldlly where trains are made, e hap
PLY eliminated. No woman need mako
an elaborate toilet unless shs ia 50
disposed. Attention TO the few essen
tails is all that is necessary. This
daily care not only encourages health
aud beauty. but preserves them as we'll.

Ev AKING the most of moderate
lMN income is the problem which
S great many women are try
ing TO solve. Many answers
are found to this many-sided question
but few women have found satisfac-
tory solutions TO all the parts of the
problem.
There arc a great many families in
this country who are in want. and
there arc also many families of great
wealth But the majority rests with
the ones who are neither very rich
nor very poor but in moderate circum-
stances. The housewives whose hus-
bands make moderate salaries have
just as many and just as ongrossing
problems as The women whose mates
dig bitches or carry a hod TO earn
their daily wage.
Ono of the times when every woman
feels the desire for wealth is when her
children arc growing up without the
sort of education that she would like
10 give them Almost every mother
feels strong ambition for her children.
and IL ono is specially talented it al
most breaks the mother-heart TO be
unable 10 develop that talent.
You m; Y have found that you could
SNt dituE NtIA NSll On your UluueTdtc
income when there was only ques-
tion of your own and your husbands
needs. And when the children were
very little the added drain on the
purse was not so much greater.
But now that same income seems
all TO small--now that you would like
to give your child music or drawing,
French and German lessons. all of
which cost money.
You will find that there is very lit
tic in tho line of education which can
not he acquired either entirely free or
almost free of charge. The public
high schools teach German. French
and Italian and have besides free
classes in drawing. There your child
can lay a splendid foundation for ft-
turc study in any ono OF these Ian
euHgCs or in art
Music is tho only thing which re-
uuircs an expenditure Of money TO
gain a start. But after your child has
made a start in music. IL she is really
talented she will soon he able 10 con
tinuc her lessons for nothing. as there

JAMES BREATHITT III GOES UP

Aviators Harrison and Combs are
still here and are making daily fights
from the field across the pike from
the Western State Hospital, a part
of the hospital farms. Short flights
are made with passengers from time
to time over the lands of the Hospi-
tai, j. NJ. Morris, The Southern Min
eral Co., and others owning farms in
the vicinity. Occasionally flights are
made over the city.
A good many local people have
gone up with one or the other of the
aviators.
On Saturday James Breathitt, Jr.,
went up and was put through the US
ual round of stunts. Little Jimmy"
his five-year-old son, expressed a de-
sire to go up and was taken up for
a short flight and came down dis
satisfied because he was not taken
as high as his father. His mother was
next given the same experience, go
ing high enough to loop the loop and
be given other thrills.
The same afternoon Miss Eliza
beth Mason was taken up for flight.
On Sunday afternoon a large
crowd was at the aviation field and
a number of other citizens went up.
Marvin Broadhent was put through
a series of stunts that caused him to
land with a case of "seasickness,"
which lasted for some minutes.
Mrs. Andrew Sargent, Mrs. Oscar
Bass, John w. Garnett and w. W.
Barbee were others who tried a jour-
ney into the clouds and were delight
ed with the experience.
The aviators charge $15 and take
only one passenger at a time.

Boston, Mass There is small EG-

aont having to face q deficit because
Of its guarantee Of a fixed price on
wheat, according to Secretary OF
Commerce Rea6old, who addressed
the Executive Association Of Whole
sale Grocers Of New England here re
Gently. Foreign crops were greatly
impaired by war conditions, and the
European demand for American
wheat will far exceed the normal fig
ures.
In the event that the Government
price should exceed current market
quotations, Secretary Redfeld thinks
the nation should accept the loss and
permit the people to reap the bene-
fit.
"There has been speculation in
Washington as to what it will cost
the government to make good it's
wheat guaranty" said Mr. Redfield.
Opinions have ranged anywhere
from nothing to billion dollars. As
time goes on, however, it becomes in
creasingly clear that the food condi-
tions in large parts of the world are
bad, worse than thought. TAa peo-
pie of the Central Powsis probably
will not raise over half crop, and
as they used to call upon us for large
amounts in normal times, it is GER

increased, provided always that
means can be found for payment

should itself accept the loss and al

shall be one, of the lowest prices that
prevail"

CANNOT RANK AS DIPLOMAT
General SHUTS Disqualified Himself
BY His UnseemIy Employment
of Plain Language.

The language Of the law is the most
FORMAL in the world and the most pre-
else. II seeks the definite so ardently
that, with rs rspetitions and where
asses, it confuses its own message and
only that rather perverted form of in
tellcct the legal mind, can wind
through iis Iabyrlnrhine verbiage. The
language of diplomacy borrowing
something of formality from the law
is nevertheless far more dignified. The
law deals merely with estates and p7i-
vate contracts. 1t DEGREES the fate, Of
the individual. But the fate Of ma
tons may hang on the phraseology of
diplomacy. Its greater Importance has
The Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 191?-19??, 1919-09-24

impaired to its diction greater dignity.
And the purpose of words in diplomat
ic exchanges being to conceal thought,
as Talleyrand said, the language of
chancelleries is far more liquid. 1t
must fit the cast of the particular die
into which it is poured.
So we must conclude that General
SHUTS is not diplomat. He has not
the diplomatic method Of expression.
When the general met a diplomat,
trained in the school of Metternich, to
discuss informally a separate peace
with Austria, he put the question Of
such peace squarely to the be-
ribbOned, bestarred representative.
There was hesitation and equivOca-
ton. "GOOd night" was the generals
exclamation as he left the confused
diplomat.
General SHUTS may not wear shirt
sleeves in diplomatic councils, but
this use of the vernacular shows that
his verbiage at least takes its coat
off. The acid touch of a bit of slang
put an end to the prolonged amblgui-
ties and deeeits of which diplomacy
is so fond.

T%OURNAI, the oldest city in
Belgium, once the capital of
the Merovinglan kings, is
truly city of romance,

being lost to sight for nearly 1900
years, or Of the poor, deluded youth,

ignominious death, says a writer in

us primary interest centers in its be-

strange impostor was the son Of a

richard Duke Of York, whom they de-
2lared had not been murdered in the
Tower with his brother ;ut had es-
eaped and been concealed, only await
ing an opportunity to declare his,royal
birth, he succeeded for a time in ex
citing a formidable revolt against tbe
King, Henry VII.
After many strange adventures and
much ill success, in spite of the refog-
iition of his claims by the kings of
Scotland and France, Perkin, finding
himself insuficiently supported IN, his
sorry fraud and realizing that he "had
not the heart Of a king 1T Only "the
heart of a weayer's son," made confess

The country's dry; some gin and rye
in alleys may be peddled,
But prison waits the foolish skates
who with such trade have meddled.
The thirsty gink who seeks a drink
of souLdestroying bitters,
Must cast aside all decent pride and
herd with low down critters
The country's dry and so am I, but
Pm a fan for water;
When heated up Iwant a cup that
doesn't make me hotter,
The 'foaming beer, all amber clear,
that bears such lurking titles,
Piles useless fat on waist and slat,
and superheads mems vitals.
The sparkling wine whose bubbles
shine like dew upon the clover,
Heats up ones veins and cooks his
brains, and leaves a fierce hang
over.
I drink from pools, for water cools
my works, by summer heated;
l don't regret the era wet, when men
each other treated.
l drink from pumps and have no
dumps when rising in the morning;
No stomach throes, and my red nose
is not a horrid warning.
drink from brooks, whose bends and
crooks bisect the smiling valleys
l have no use for serpent juice dis
pensed in dirty alleys.
