Hundreds Are Victims.

At Tresportenas more than 100
killed and so seriously injured. 1t is
feared that more victims still are
buried under the ruins in each town.
At Tresportenas, Lavalie and La
Central not a house was left stand
ing and those not destroyed were
left in badly damaged condition. No
estimate of the total number OF per-
sons injured has yet been made.
Minor shocks continue throughout
the district, one particularly strong

noon at $50 o'clock in the towns OF
San Martin and Rivadavia The peo-

Hot Geysers Spring Forth.
In the town of Costa de Aranjo the
seismic commissions opened great
crevices, out of which hot water is
spouting. The water from one OF
these geysers reached height OF
about ID feet and formed pool in
which two persons We're drowned. A
Red Cross ambulance has reached the
village and set to work to rescue
any sufferers who may be alive in
the ruins. More than 10000 persons
inhabit little towns along the eastern
Andean slope and as reports add to
the long list of casualties apprehen-
sion is felt that the final figures will
be very high. Rescue parties have
been sent from Mendoza, but details
from the scene of the disaster are
meager as telephone and telegraph
wires are badly disorganized.
The earth movement during the
tremor was from the northwest to
the southeast and number OF small
shocks followed the principal concus
sion, which lasted 50 seconds.

Highest Type Of Joy.

There's no joy superior to that Of
rising above what the community pre-
diets for you. Yet every man has 1t
in him to be infinitely above what
others think possible. Hidden deep In
every man are the unseen PERSONAL
ties waiting for the touch Of occasion
to call them forth. They respond as
a matter of growth and then only to
answer a recognized need. As the
mind is urged to finer determinations
1t learns to weigh more subtle argu-
ments. As the heart is taught to feel
the cry of another's sorrow 1t devel-
ops larger capacity to enter into the
finer feelings Of the human soul. II
is all a matter of human and divine
laws. He who permits himself to de-
velop his best becomes the man of
the hour in time of need. He rises on
the strength of his trained personality.

RHODA ROYALS BIG CIRCUS
COMING

When the circus comes to town 1t
creates a powerful lot Of excite
ment, as they say down south, and
the aforesaid excitement commences
for the small boy and other little
folks about the time the first car con
tanning the young men who post
works of art upon the bill boards,
arrives. "The circus is cOming!' Is
the delighted shout of the small ur-
chin, as he gazes upon the big bills
that announce the date of the great
canvas entertainment, which is to be
in Barbourville on Wednesday, July
81.
As time fits on apace, and the cir
Gus day draws near. the enthusiasm
of the small boy is shared by his ell
ders, and when the circus comes his
father and mother and sisters and
cousins and aunts, eleven or seven
of them, will all go just to take that
small boy to the circus. They may,
however. be excused when it is con-
sidered that the Rhoda Rayal Big
Railroad Show is coming with an ag-
gregation of ring attractions and
great geological collection from the
jungles and forests of five CONT
nents. This is a large three ring cir
Gus. a monster menagerie, which, by
the way, is entirely distinct and sep
arate from the wild beast show,
which consists of all kinds of savage
brutes, exhibited in startling per-
formances in a huge steel-barred cir
cular cage, the same as seen in Euro
pean capitals, New York and Chica-
60, at the Atlanta Exhibition. Then
there is a real Roman hippodrome,
and world of wonders which space
forbids a detailed account of here.
All in all the Royal Shows are held
to be the most surprising and pleas
ing unification of all that is new and
wonderful in the circus world.
There will be a grand street par
ade during the morning of exhibit
ton day, July 21st.

WIFE is LIKE A
NEW PERSON NOW
Kentucky Farmer Says Nothing
Helped Her Until She Took
TanIac- Suffered 20 Years

Remarkable indeed was the state
ment made by w. T. Walker, a pro-
minent farmer, living at Shepherds
VILE, Ky, r. F. d. No. 2, while in
Louisville few days ago.
Mr.. Walker declared that three
bottles of Tanlac has done his wife
more good than all the other medi-
cines she has taken in twenty years
put together.
"For twenty years." said Mr. Wal
ker, my wife had been unable 10
eat anything without suffering terri
bly, with indigestion. She had such
violent cramping pains in her stom-
ach at times that she could not
straighten up; she was constipated
all the time and often got so dizzy
she would nearly fall. She had no
strength and her nerves were so
shattered that she could hardly sleep
ct all.
Nothing ever helped her until
she got Tanlac and that's saying
good deal, for she has tried every
thing. Tanlac helped right from the
start, and while she has just finished
her third bottle she is already like
a different person. Her stomach is
in such fine condition now she can
even eat pork or anything else and
never hasa pain or an uncomfort-
able feeling afterwards. She is no
longer constipated and never has a
dizzy spell. and her nerves have
quieted down until she sleeps just
like child every night. Tanlac is
bound to be a fine medicine to do
what it has for my wife after she
had suffered so long. and | will re-
it to anybody"

Do the Moments Work Well.

It's not easy to arouse enthusiasm
without a great motive. Yet the man
who is ever}sstingly searching for the
big thing to do never accomplishes
much. LIES great opportunities come
to those who are busy with their own
Jobs. There is no recommendation
like that of industry. Candidates for
new jobs may receive attention In
times of need, but when really great
man Is wanted men seek to find him
among the toiling leaders of success
full enterprises. The principle Is as
old as history. When the Lord need
ed prophets he called them from the
pillow and the pasture. When the
Christ needed disciples he called them
from the nets and the receipts Of GUS

today 1t looks for him among the busy
