Education (D

Education is a very prominen,
topic just now. Book knowledg &c
is taken by most people to mean
an education, but nothing may be
further from it. Education is not
only book learning but it is an
observation of truths and facts
we have learned. The teaching
of conjectures should not be tol.
Grated in the public schools.
Nothing but demonstrated facts
should be. The common school
text books are full of theories of
men who advance reasonable
ideas that have been adopted as
inevitable facts. 1t is probable
that none of them are true, and
it it certain none of them are
when they cOntrovert the teach.
ings of the Bible as many of them
incline to do. If the course of
our schools taught only honest
facts ana the necessity of observ.
ing them, we then would have
more educated people and much
better world. But not % per cent.
of the college and university grad.
yates observe the essential teach
lngs of physiology as taught now
and as taught IN the common
schools 30 years ago, and not
more than this number ever OBJ.
serve the moral teachings of our
common schools 40 years ago.
The clamor of the self. styled
SCIENTISTS, as 1T regards the bet
terment of the human family, is
a myth, 1t is vain fancy, a de.
lusion. 1t is a race for imaginary
valueless theories, leaving cast
aside the essential teachings of
morality, and life improving vir.
tues and habits. Let us have an
elevation of virtues, morals and
capa bilities to accomplish posi-
bilities as general educatin
factor, and discard vain idealisms
and unverified bigoted theories
as predominating essentials In
our public school courses.
There are independent schools
given to the teaching of hypothe.
SIS. They probably should not
be criticised in their proper place,
but their province is outside the
schools supported by public mon
ey.

Don't forget that Saturday Feb
ruary 18th, will be Farmers Sales
Day in Clay City. Bring in your
live stock to sell come in to buy
what you need. 1t is very impor'
tant to Clay City that a success
of these sales be made. If you
have nothing to sell and nothing
to buy, come and look on. That
will help out. Besides the stock
advertised In these columns, a
number have told us they will
have stock on the market, and
many buyers have said they will
be on hand. 1t costs nothing to
put your stock on the market here
as lottage will be free. A II
weights will also be free.
The sole object of instituting
these sales days is to get buyers
and sellers of live stock together
for their mutual benefit. The
date for these sales has been Sc.
lected for Saturday before Mt.
Sterling court because there is
always stock en-route to this mar
ket at that time. 1t often hap.
pens that the tradesmen want
more in their bunch an d are
ready with the cash to buy. 1t
also often happens that some of
our farmers need just what these
drovers have and can thus get it
here, saving trip TO Mt. Sterl-
ing. 1t then saves he dealer the
expense of driving further.
If these sales prove successful,
as they should, Bluegrass farm
ers will soon be coming here to
buy their cattle as well as going
to Mt. Sterling.
The lack for ready sale Of live
stock has always been a great
draw. back to the farmers of this
county. Each year many of them
lose on cattle because the buyers
fail to come round at the proper
time. The object of these sale
days is to correct these handicaps
by giving monthly opportunities
To local people TO meet on their
own market and to supply out of.
county buyers with what they
want, already punched up for
them.

= NIGHT IN HONOLULU"


The Birmingham Age-Herald of re-
cent date has the following comment
to make on the appearance of this
play in Birmingham:
ga Night in Honolulu which open
ed an engagement at the jefferson
theater last night, is play of love be-
meath tropic skies, with dash cf
comedy, and is unfolded to the haunt
ing melodies of Hawaii, as sung and
played by a troupe of native music
ians.
miss Una Carpenter, who, If we
mistake not. has appeared here pre-
viously in a play of this character, has
the role of am Hawaiian dancer in
love, of course, with a white planter.
Miss Carpenter makes the character
both interesting and appealing and
dances as if the fire of the South Seas
were in her veins. She is quite a ca
pable actress and has the support of
competent company in portraying
the story of Kalama, whose romance
with Robert Wilkar, owner of a sugar

Why Cold Treatments
For Children Should
Be External

The child's stomach is delicate and
nearly all physicians will agree that
every upsetting influence should be
avoided. Internal medicines are some
times necessary but invariably they
have a bad effect on the child's .sys-
tenn. Such slight ailments as coughs,
colds and sometimes Group can be very
successfully treated externally.

have to placate the gods by leaping
into a volcano this time, which seems
to be the accepted way of polishing
off Hawaiian romances, although
there is quite realistic volcano in
the background when the tangled
threads of the story are unraveled and
she is united with her lover, after
hearing the glad intelligence that she
is neither leper, as the hard-hearted
'villainess' of the piece declared her to
be, nor native outcast, but the long
lost daughter of an Englishman. That
makes everything fit and proper, as
it were -
