ISIS HOPKINS" TONIGHT

Rather than a series of laughable
incidents with the semblance of plot
somewhere between them, isis Hop
kins," the new Goldwyn Picture in
which Mabel Normand stare at the
local Theatre tonight, tells con-
sistent story in which are suspense
and even thrills.
Sisseretta Hopkins called "Sis"
for short-has an old, rheumatic faith
er to whom she is devoted. They live
on a rundown farm in the town of
New Harmony and barely make both
ends met. As everyone knows, Sis is
"a gawky hoyden, up to all kinds of
mischief; but she is lovable as well.
Through an accident Vibert, the
towns richest man, thinks there is oil
on the Hopkins land and he sets about
to so ingratiate himself with Sis and
her pa that they will sell it to him
for a song. He sends her to the To-
cal seminary to be "edjicated" and OF
course, the girls exploits there are
amusing beyond description. Viberts
patronage arouses the ire Of Ridy
Scarboro, who really care sforSis
How it all untangles itself and how
| the shrewdness of Sis enables hel
Ito sell the worthless to Vibert ant
bring Ridy to her-an this is told il

ALL READY FOR ROAD
ELECTION TOMORROW
People of Madison County Will Say
Whether They Want 20 Cent Ex-
ira Tax To Improve Highways

Madison county voters will say to-
morrow, Saturday, the 29th, whether
they wish to impose special tax of
20 cents on each $100 worth of pro-
perty for the purpose of reconstruct
ing the roads and bridges of the
county. The proposition, if carried,
will be in effect for 10 years. It is
estimated that the extra revenue re-
quired to put Madison's roads in tip
top shape can be had in that space of
time.
Much interest is being manifested
in the election and those who favor
the tax, declare that it has a splendid
CHARGE to carry now. The Fiscal
Court submitted the matter to the
people with only one dissenting vote,
that of Squire Long. At the time the
Daily Register enormously said the
courts zction was unanimous. The
members of the court have been en-
deavoring to give full information to
the voters as to the disposition and
apportionment of, the fund that will
be raised if the tax carries, and it is
reported from many sections that
many more are in favor Of the ques-
ton now than was the case two OF
three weeks ago.
Quite number of Kentucky coun-
ties have voted this tax and advices
from the State Road Department are
to the effect that there is no dissen-
sion in any county over having voted
It, the only complaint being that it is
not sufficient. Most Of the counties
would now be glad to vote thirty o,
forty cents more tax, but they cannot
do so under the present constitution
The counties which have voted the 2(
cent tax so far, are: McCreary, Wolfe
Grant, Franklin, Muhlenberg, Letcher
Owsley, Owen, Nelson, Livingston
Pike, Estill, Carroll, Hancock, Carlisle
Martin, Shelby, Henry, Butler, ant
Fulton.

RICHMOND AND THE ROAD TAX

and the improvement Of the roads will
more than compensate the merchants,
business people and workingmen for
the amount Of tax paid.
This is simply a business PROPOSE
tion. Madison county has invested in
improved highways about $4,000, 900.
They must be kept in repair or they
will be worn to mud roads. There
are at this time about 1000 automo-
biles in the county, compared with 500
three years ago. The money raised
by this tax will be expended in the
ditching, repair, and rebuilding of the
roads. The automobile owners will
save annually in tires alone more than
the additional tax.
There are in the city large and
growing tobacco markets, wholesale
groceries, Touring mills and many re-
tailers of various classes of goods, all
Of whose interests will be materially
benefited by road improvements. Il
this business is to be maintained anc
expanded it can only be done by main
tanning and improving our county
roads.
BY her vote Richmond will say t.
the people Of the county whether o,
not she is in favor Of improving th'
roads of the county, and helping tt
lpay for them.-Contributed.

~ was so nervous that the least

Woods, of R. D. 8, Lexington.
'1 couldn't stand for the children to

I could not eat meat or any kind o1

I had been seeing Meritone adver

taking it I can truthfully say tha
there never was such a good medicin,
as Meritone.
"I am not disturbed by any amoun

Promises Money To Hungarians.
(By Associated Press)

London, March Bulletin-Amer-
lean troops looking after Russian
prisoners in Germany are believd to
have nipped in the bud an important
Bolshevik plot, according to a Berlin
dispatch. The Spartacans in Spandau,
the message states, planned a big up
rising for Thursday, intending to
arm several thousand Russians from
the Bubleben camp.
The Americans, however, rushed the
Russians on trains Wednesday night
scattering them under Americans
throughout Germany. The Sparta.
cans intended to spring their revolt
as a means of aiding the Hungarians
in their Bolshevik move.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.
You are often told to "beware Of q

The longer the cold hangs on, the

mond should carefully consider the in
terests Of the city in casting his vote
tomorrow on the proposition to levy
an additional tax on each 500 worth
OF taxable property to improve the
roads of Madison county.
1t is a fact that people go to towns
to trade into which lead the best i'm
proved roads. The city of Richmond
and the business interests Of the city
make their living by the trade which
they get from the county. It will
greatly improve the city of Richmond
as a business place to maintain and
improve the roads leading into IT,
city from the various sections Of the
county. In addition to the fact that
we will hold the trade of our own peo-
pie by this means, we will also at.
tract business of every kind from the
surrounding counties.
The main argument against this tas
has been that we are already taxed
enough, but this is not tax. It is an
investment, every dollar of which il
Expended on the roads and from which
Richmond's business houses will rear
the greatest benefit.
The added tax is very small on eacl
individual, and the stimulation to bus
mess in the city from the expenditure
of the money Of the laboring people

High Cost and High Thoughts.

Few seem to perceive the beauties
of the high cost of living. One of
them is that it prevents gluttony. The
old American vice Of over eating has
been almost entirely cured; and we
dare say that scientific Investigation
conducted by doctors and dietitians
would prove that the average equator
Of mankind has been reached.
People do not eat so much, and it is
better for them. Those who purvey
provender for the public are its in
voluntary benefactors. We owe them
good will. They deserve the higher
remuneration that they have receiv-

race by standing in the way OF the
