Of cooking which made her first class.
She fought her battle through life
splendidly caring for her old and help

with that devotion which real moth
or knows. She has been blind for the
past ten years yet bore this affliction
with the same fortitude which bore
her up all through life.

Department.
The ordinance requires that every
person delivering milk to Maysville
for human consumption must be IL
censed and registered at the city Of
fees and up to the present time only
few of our local milk men have
taken out the required license.
As soon after the first Of July as
possible, DR.. Rice, County Health Of
ficer, will begin the inspection Of dair-
les furnishing milk to the people OF
Maysville and the entire Health De-
partment will be at the disposal of the
dealers In an attempt to furnish pure
milk to the city. Without the enforce
ment of the license ordinance the
Health Department is without power
to inspect and report on the conditions
Of diaries but as every one is interest
ed in seeing pure milk only sold in
Maysville, the general public is very
glad to know that the ordinance will
be rigidly enforced.

DR.. Boehm and Peter Saal had gone
to the Pierce home, where they were
assisting in an operation upon rup-
tured hog. They were In concrete
hog house, Mr.. Pierce standing near a
window. DR.. Boehm stated that he
was attracted to Mr.. Pearce's condi-
ton first by q remark that he would
have to get out Of the building he was
feeling sick. Before he could grasp
the situation Pearce fell, across a
trough, his head striking the con-
crete. DR.. Boehm went to him at
once, and while Mr.. Saal notified
Pearce's wife, DR.. Boehm dragged the
body of the PROSTATE man out Of the
enclosure, and he was taken to the
house. He never rallied.
Mr.. Pearce was a well known citi-
zen of that section. Several years ago
he suffered sun stroke, and upon
various times had been subjected to
occurrences and had to use every pre-
caution against being overheated.

LEST We FORGET
(By Margaret Brown

"If We break faith with US who die,
we shall not sleep though popies grow
in Flanders fields"
We haven't broken faith with them,
have we folks? and do not intended
that we ever shall. They are the
Dead short days ago, they lived-but
what Of those who did not die, those
who came back to us from "Over
There. Shall we forget them. Never.
Lest we do, let's all get together at
stated times, like the Glorious Ami
versary of our freedom and have a
"big party" for them all, as Mr.. Coch-
ran so fittingly put 1t the other night
at the Chamber of Commerce. A big
party where all will be welcome, with
plenty of music, dancing and lots Of
good "eats". Beechwood Park is an
ideal place for the party" the Fourth
of July, the best time on earth, Mays
Vile, the dandiest little city on the
globe, where the heartiest good will
is always overfowing, and, where,
once we wake them up, there are the
very livest folks going. Don't make
any other engagements for the Glor-
ious Fourth, Soldier and Sailor boys,
for we have just got" to have you
with us then. It's your day. BY get
ting together, it can be made the big
gest we have ever had. Wasn't it Kip
ling that said:
1T amt the guns nor armonent,
Nor funds that they can pay,
But the close cooperation that makes
them win the day
1t amt the individuals, nor the army
as whole.
But the everlastin' team work
OF every bloomin' soul"

Famed Mexican
Rebel Leader Attri-
butes His Health to
Keeping Stomach
in Order. - IUDU
will do this for You

Keep the stomach from getting
fat, it makes riding easier"
These were the words uttered a
few days ago by Pancho Villa, the
rebel leader of Mexico, in interview
with an Associated Press correspond
ent
Here is daredevil military COM
mander, who, like Dickens "Artful
Dodger" has been able to elude sue
cessfully the government troops of
Mexico and United States by his
skill as a rider in the mountain fast
nesses of the neighbor republic, who
knows by experience that if her had
allowed himself to become fat and to
pamper to his stomach he would have
been captured or killed long ago.
Villa, besides being an enthusiastic
physical culturist, is known to adj
here to the primitive Mexican herbs
and roos medicines for health rene
dies. Nearly all Mexicans avail
themselves of the health giving pro-
ducts of which INDU is composed
and which grow so profusely in their
country, to keep their bodies in good
