COURTESY FROM MOTORISTS

There is among motorists a gen
eral disposition to turn on the dim
lights when meeting 4 fellow tray
eler on the highway. But sometimes
there is persistent doggedness thar
waits for the other man to make
the initial overture. It has been
the experience of the writer that
such a courtesy meets with a ready
response from nearly all motorists
and certainly it adds to the pleasure
of motoring by night.
But there is greater reason than
courtesy for the dimming of lights
on the highway. Several deaths
have been caused in kentucky in
the last few months from the blind
ing OF one driver by the glazing
headlights of another automobile
sweeping downward from the crest
of a hill, such as adds to the at
Effectiveness OF travel through the
State, or around horse shoe curve.
More often still serious accidents
have been avoided only by one dri-
yer stopping his car until the blind
ing glare of the other was behind
him. The danger from this source
is greater than from speeding across
the open country, and ordinary
courtesy is it's solution.

SUMMER SCHOOL HELD BY COL
ORED TEACHERS

A successful Summer School. to
continue five weeks, has been inau-
gurated in Paris, conducted by
teachers of the colored schools of
Paris and Bourbon county. in con-
junction with teachers from several
of the surrounding counties. The
work being undertaken is of a very
high order, and much enthusiasm
is being manifested. The attend
ance is above the average usually
present at similar meetings.
Instruction in primary methods
is being given by Mrs. Hill, of In
dianapolis, specialist in educa-
tional teachings. Mrs. Lillian ].
Brown, of Indiana, is specializing in
the teaching of history, and the
teaching along this line is OF the
advanced rank. Work in agriculture

vision of Andrew D. Owens, Super
visor of Colored Schools of Mont
gomery county. The department
of Home Economics is in charge of
Gene White, who has done credita-
BILE work at Hamilton Institute

ter by F. A. Taylor. The teachers

THE INSURANCE MAN

The community should appreciate
the service given it by the men in
the insurance business. They are a
force always working for fire pre-
vention. They warn property own
ers of hazardous conditions. They
agitate for Cleanup Days and other
movements to get rid of inflamma
BILE rubbish. They protest against
fire traps. Fires cost high. You
pay in taxes, in insurance premi-
ums, in losses not covered by insur-
ance. The man who owns no build
ings, and pays no taxes, yet pays for
fire costs in his rent. Also the in
surance man persuades a lot of IN
prOvident men to provide for their
families by life insurance. You may
dodge around the corner to get rid
of an insurance solicitor, and later
you or your family may regret it,
incidentally it could be remarked
that the insurance man is greatly
assisted in his work Of community
service by advertising his excellent
proposition in THE BOURBON

SET NE RIGHT
TWO YEARS AGO
Louisville Man Says He Has Had
Splendid Health Since Tanlac
Ended His Troubles

"You may put me down as one
Louisville man who will always
praise Tanlac, for it set me right
two years ago and has kept me in
fine shape ever sirce," said w. T.
Carmen, 442 South First street,
Louisville, KY, in conversation
with special Tanlac representative
recently.
Before I got Tanlac," he contin-
ued, Il had suffered from indigestion
for twenty years, and during that
time I had many acute attacks that
rendered ME unfit for work for sew
eral weeks at a time. My stomach
seemed to be weak and upset nearly
all the time, and after every meal
suffered from sour gas that form
ed on my stomach. Then several
years ago l was taken down with 2
spell of typhoid fever that left me
in badly rundown condition, and
my stomach in worse shape than
ever. My liver became sluggish, 1
was constipated all the time and
had that tired, WORKOUT feeling.
My joints were stiff and every bone
in my body seemed to ache, and
also suffered from bronchial trouble.
"FOllOwing my usual custom OF
trying everything 1 heard of, when l
saw Tanlac advertised / bought a
bottle, and after taking about half
of the first bottle 1 knew 1 had at
last struck the right medicine, for
there was considerable improvement
in my condition. l stuck right to
Tanlac until my troubles completely
left me and l felt like a new man.
Since that time, two years now,
have made it rule to take a bottle
of Tanlac about every six months to
tone up my system, and it keeps me
in fine shape. l eat just anything I
want at any time and never have an
ache or a pain. So l can testify to
both the immediate and lasting re-
suits that come from Tanlac, and
am glad to make public statement
for what it may be worth to others
who are needing such medicine"
Tanlac is sold IN Paris at the PeO-
piles Pharmancy.

LUSITANIA LIFE BELT PICKED
UP IN RIVER.

A life jacket, silent remembrance
of the tragic sinking of The Lusi-
tania FIVE years ago, and bearing d
strand of faded blonde hair, was
picked up last week in the Della

The name of the ship the Ger
mans torpedoed still remained
clear and distinct, on the wave
beaten canvas, which had been
adrift on the seas throughout three
years of war and two of peace.
The life jacket, which was found
by two railroad detectives, was COW
cred with slime and seaweed, with
one arm-strap broken. On one side
were the words, life belt" and or
the other, in large black letters, the
inscription, "Lusitania."

kinqtehchen an Ancient City.

Kingtehchen is one of the four larg-
est towns of China. Technically it is
not city. It is town, because it
has no wall. In reality it is a busy
industrial city, with population Of
100000. Two-thirds of the people are
directly engaged in the manufacture
and sale of porcelain and pottery.
Historically it dates back to the Han
dynasty, 200 A. D. 1t is during this
period that we find the first records
Of the production Of porcelain in
China, though earthenware vessels
were probably produced some CEN
turtles earlier.

CAUTION TO HAY SHIPPERS.

BY Nelson J. Smith. Chief Hay II
spector.)
During abe winter months We cau-
not impress too strongly the imral
tancn of giving special attention t.
the baling Of hay AID its protectiol
after being baled ana awaiting liv-
ment. Some balirg crews are very
careless and allow At times wet and
snowy hay to be pressed into the in
terror TO the bale. ANY hay balcd
i'm this way should never be hauled
from the field for shipment. becaus
it is orly starting it on Il journey
which will eventually bring giicf o.
every one who is concerned with f.
distribution. If the outsides OF tn
bales are dry it is almost Impossible
TO dotect this snowy or wet hay IN
the bales without breaking the Wire
except when the bales arc found to
weigh very heavy.
When wet hay is loaded in closed
freight cars Il heating process sets il.
value OF the bale. but often affects
value OF the bale, but owten affects
the bales lying adjacent to it, Too
much care cannot be given to balinr
when weather conditions are bad.
Baled hay should never be piled or
wet or damp ground nor should il
be left without cover when awaiting
shipment re loading of bales Gov
cred with a coating of ice or snow is
almost as careless as willfully baline
snow in the bales and causes bout
the same kind of trouble as mention
ed above
Inspectors have been advised to
mark "ungrGded on account of wet
hay" on all cars which contain such
The hay may he OF good number one
quality for immediate feeding. but
no one can determine its condition OF
value before reaching it's destination
Don't allow baliag crews to pres
wet hay.
Don't allow baled hay to be piled
on tho ground without projection
and cover
Don't load bales which are wet or
coated with snow or ice.
