not the man who knows most about rWAe Insurance who ought to be most ss deeply interested in it No it should be the man who needs it most who ought to feel the deepest concern about it This is the way Hoffman looks at it And a talk ewith Hoffman on the subject will open eyes Maybe youve always thought Jour the subject was dull made up of be statistics argued only from the t selfish standpoints of the seller of Iiisur ance differentlyHellsuch a way that youll become charmed by its fascination Did you ever think that a serious subject can be made really fascinating Likely not And the reason is very apparent Most Life Insurance hasnt a groundwork of truth and fact but is made up of fancy and fiction As it is expounded there is so little pith and so much froth so much confusion and so little plain straightforward substantial satisfaction that Hoffmans talk about it is a revelation I Then again you must remember that he is talking about something which he r has to sell of course which you want You want it more than any insurance there is to be had Why H Ji HQFfMVN General Agt thitSterllnp Kentucky i S ipi ii OUR STREETS Street raving Committee Visits Ashland and lluntington and Are Royally Entertained Messrs C C Chenault W A Samuels and G H Strother mem bers of the Street Paving Com mission visited Ashland Ky and Huntington W Va last week accompanied by Jno W William Ashland is considered one of the best paved cities of its size in the United States and much valuable information was obtained by these gentlemenThey informed at Ashland that the cost of brick streets there ranged from 138 a square sur face yard to 194 The streets constructed about a year ago cost the last named price All streets in Ashland are on concrete base of six inches with sixteen inch base in street car tracks and many heavy excava tions were necessary The oldest street paved in Ashland has been used about six years and not a dol lar has been spent on same for re pairsThe streets at Huntinjrton cost from 128 a square yard to 165 Most of them have no concrete base which is the method recom mended by all experienced engi neers today The curbing and gutters at Ashland cost fortynine cents a lineal foot The main streets of Ashland are 64 feet in width while the streets of Mt Sterling average from 36 to 40 ft The difference in freight rates will increase the cost here to some ex tent but it is believed brick streets can be put in here complete for not to exceed 190 a square sur face yard The people of both of these cities are enthusiastic in their praise of brick streets saying that as soon as they were put down in the business district and the ad vantages were seen the citizens desired them in the residential portion e The entire Commission is working hard on this proposition and will be ready to report to the City Council soon It now looks like brick streets ore a certainty here and is is predicted that actual work construction will be commenced by June 1st The citizens of both Ashland and Huntington showed these gentlemen every courtesy At Huntington they were royally en tertained by the local lodge of Elks Do you know our motto It is Everything Good to

reason no taxes should be paid thereon no suit is brought Ifon the other hand he can show the taxpayer that no taxes have been paidon the item in question though prop erly the subject of taxation an opportunity is given to make an equitable settlement without the heavy costs incident to a suit In this way Mr Rehorn collect ed in three days over seven hun dred dollars due the County and State He

business to manufacture watches and another mans business to peddle shoestrings so it was Mr Campbells business to know things He was a human card Index a governmental ready reference posted to the minute and backed by all the tremendous resources of ana tics From the little office In the Secret Service Bureau where he sat day after day radiating threads connected with the huge outer world and en abled him to keep a firm hand on the diplomatic and departmental pulse of Washington Perhaps he came near er knowing everything that happened there than any other man living and no man realized more perfectly than he Just how little of all of it he did knowIn person Mr Campbell was not un like a retired grocer who bad shaken the butter and eggs from his soul and settled back to enjoy a life of placid Idleness He was a little beyond mid dIe age pleasant of face white of hair and blessed with guileless blue eyes His genius had no sparkle to It It consisted solely of detail and system and Indefatigability coupled with a memory that was well nigh in fallible Ills brain was as serene and orderly as a cash register one almost expected to hear it click ire sat at his desk intently studying a cable despatch which lay before him It was In the Secret Service code airGrimmthe dlterentIperhaps thirtyone or two physically well proportioned a little above the average height with regular features and listless purposeless eyes a replica of a hundred other oung men who dawdle Idly in the windows of heir clubs and watch the world hurry by ills manner was languid his dress showed fastidious care Sentence by sentence the bewilder ing Intricacies of the code gave way before the placid understanding of wardya translation took intelligible form upon a sheetI of paper under his right hand Mr Grimm looting on exhibited only a most perfunctory interest In the ex readingewas all It was a special despatch from Lisbon dated that morning andIsigned simply Gault Completely

slowly it any othIthirdI than Gaalt had sent that 1 have said be was crazy The peace of tie world Is In peril Mr Grimm said Campbell impres surely at last It had to come of coerse the United States

So much The pages of the Almanac de Gotha fluttered through his fingers and fin a1 ly be leaned forward and studied a paragraph of it closely When he raised his eyes again there was thatI In them which Mr Grimm had aer- iI seen forea settled darkens ng shadowThe world war has long been a chimera Mr Grimm he remarked at last but nOllDoThlnk of It course the Central and South Ameri can countries taken separately are i If Any Other Man Than Gault Ha Sent That I Should Have Said He Craryinconsequential and that Is true too of the Latin countries of Europe except France but taken in combination under one directing mind the allied navies would be would be forma- able at least Backed by the mor support of Germany and perhaps Japan Dont you see Dont yo j seeHe lapsed Into silence Mr Grlm opened his lips to ask a question Mr Campbell anticipated It uner InglyThe purpose of such an allianceSIt Is not too much to construe it into the first step toward a worldwar a war of reprisal and conquest beside which the other great wars of th world would seem trival For th fact has at last come home to the na Ions of the world that ultimately th- Engllsb speaking peoples will doori nate It dominate It because they are the practical peoples They have given to the world all its great practical 1 ventlons the railroads the steam- shIp electrlrity the telegraph and fable all of them they are the great civilizing forces rounding the worldj up to new moral understanding for what England has done in Africa and India we have done In a smaller way iIn the Philippines and Cuba and Par to Rico they are the great commer clal peoples slowly but surely winning the marketplaces of the earth wherever the English or the American flag ia planted there the English tongue is being spoken and there the peoples are being taught the sanity of rightanlliving and square dealing It requires no great effort of the IImagination Mr Grimm to foresee I that day when the traditional power of Paris and Berlin and St Petersburg and Madrid will be honeycombed by the steady eacroachme- of our methods This alliance would indicate that already that day has been foreseen that there Is now a resentment which Is about to find expression in one great desperate struggle for world supremacy A few hundred years ago Italyor Rome was stripped of her power only recently tbe United States dispelled the lilt sion that Spain was anything but a shell and France One cant helpi but wonder If the power she bonnie IIsi not principally on paper But If their forces are combined Do you see It would be an enormous power to reckon with with a hundred bases of supplies right at our doors Tie rose suddenly and walked over to the window where he stood for a moment staring out with unseeing TcGiven a yard of canvas Sir Grimm he went on finally a Span lab boy will waste It a French boy will paint a picture on It an Eng i llsh boy will build a sailboat and ani American boy will erect a tent That I fully Illustrates the differences In the races 1 He abandoned the didactic lone and turned to the mater matter In 1 theareltchI them f00 II + I i ranarsdel ate Pub Co Inc ti1t 1 At I Sff compact can be prevented bt the I slsalsg of it on United State soil can be presented You will see to that Mr Grimm i Very well the young man agree carelessly The magnitude of such I a task made apparently not the I slightest Impression on him He languidly drew on his glows And meanwhile I shall take steps to ascertain the attitude of Russian and Japanese representatives la this cityMr Grimm nodded And now for Prince Benedetto dAbrozzV Mr Campbell went oa slowly OOcially he Is not In Wash iogtoa nor the United States for that matter Naturally on such a mission he would not come as a publicly ac credited agent therefore I imagine he is to be sought under another nameOf course Mr Grimm acquiesced And he would avoid the big hotels Certaialy Mr Campbell permitted his guile less blue eyes to linger InqurJng upon those of the young man for had a minute He caught himself wonder Ing sometimes at the perfection of the deliberate Indifference with which Mr Grimm masked his emotions In his admiration of this quality he quite overlooked the remarkable mask benevolence behind which he himself hider And the same DAbruzzl he re marked after a time What does It mean to you Mr Grimm T- It means that I am to deal with a prince of the royal blood of Italy Ofwas the unhesitating response Mr Grimm picked up the Almanac de Gotha and gland at the open page Of course the first thing to do Is Ito find him the rest will be simple enough He perused Ihe page carelessly I will begin work at once CHAPTER III The Language of the Fan Mr Grimm was chatting Idly Senorita Rodriguez daughter of t minister from Venezuela the whl he permitted his listless eyes to wader aimlessly about the spacious ballroom i of the German embassy ablaze with festooned lights and brillla with a multicolored chaos of tin i

destroyed were in many instances detached but fed by the inflammable materialof feed and frame buildings the flames couH not be stoppedand in an hour the destruction was complete The fire started in the main building at the north end of the rows of barns and broke out with startling suddenness James Beckley the watchman had been in this building five minutes before the flames broke out eating his

over 1200 ministers in Ken i I inIbringingI subject before the members of their respective churches It is estimated that in this way over 250000 persons in Kentucky will be enlisted in this movement In one respect Tuberculosis Day of this year will differ from Tuberculosis Sunday of 1910 Instead of requesting the churches to give to the Tuberculosis cause a special Sunday service the State Association is this year going to ask that meetings at which Tuber culosis and its prevention be dis cussed be held on Sunday April 30 or on any day near that date either in the week preceeding or the week following The object is to get as many people in Kentucky as possible to thinkabout this great problem at the same timeIt is conservatively estimated that there are in Kentucky today at least 20000 persons suffering from the disease in some form or otherThe State Association is plan ning to distribute educational leaf lets in connection with this day and it is earnestly desired that the public will take an active part in stamping out this preventable disease which sends over 6500 of citizens to an early grave every I year and causes an economic loss to our State of over 13000000

HARMON Of OHIO FOR PRESIDENT I JUDGE YOUNG ON THE BENCH Coder the above title the Louisville Post had the following cdi tOriiill the reproduction of which affords us pleasure While the politicians at the Louisville hotels last week were Fathering in groups and predicting that Mr Allie W Young of Morehead would certainlyI enter the race for the Democratic nomina tion fur Governor and the limes was printing columns to the effect that annh ntr urns happen and Judge Young will make up his mind in the near future the Evening Post removedall doubt from the situation by Jprinting an authoritative statement from Judge Young himself that he would not make that race and had never inI tended to make it This announcement by Judge Young seems to narrow the field down to former rot McCreary and Mr YoO Head of Louisville We notice that Mr Head says he is in the race to stay Mr plead doubtless thinks so but the Evening Post does not believe he willrun the race out JudgeJ Young was the most promising candidate to oppose Mr McCreary since the withdrawal of Mr Johnson His reII fuss to enter the race is almost as severe a blow to the hopes of the ntiMeCrery faction as the withdrawal of the Fourth district Conjj gr sftman It is believed by some politicians that Judge Young may at the proocr time enter the race for Lieutenant Governor but why ho should consent to vacate the Circuit Judgeship he holds in Eastern I Kentucky to be x candidate for this cornparitively insignificant office is not claArII Judge Youmr has been referred to so frequently during recent months as a nossible candidate for Governor or Senator that manII people have overlooked the fact that he presides as a Circuit Judge in one of the most important judicial districts of Eastern Kentucky Judge Young is on the bench and be is by the unanimous testimony I j of llawyers one of the best Circuit Judges in the State His course upon the bench has been marked by ability firmness and impartiality In the enforcement of the criminal laws Judge Young has been par ticularly successful and there are are few judicial districts in the SUite where criminal laws command greater respect The Evening Post would not care to see Judge Young GoernorI of Kentucky at this time for we do not see how he any I Uie other aspirants for that Democratic nomination could disentangle himself from the influences at work to control this party at the pres erit time Upon the bench in an important district he is a successful jififtfe and a most useful citizen and his record in that office is an asset Tcii ills party V BE

=I A f 0 H POLLARD I A Prominent Attorney of Jackson Announces I for Attorney General Snbject to the Ac tion of the Democratic Party 0 H Pollard of Brenthitt county has announced for Attorney General subject to the action of the Democratic primary May 27th Mr Pollard is a native of Henry county During the last 22 years he has lived in Eastern Kentucky and devoted his ever vies to the practice of his profes sion He has always been an un compromising Democrat and for many years has been an active worker for the party and also a leader in its counsels He is prominent in fraternal circles Masonic Odd Fellows Knights of Pythias and Hoo Hoo In 1909 he served the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias as Grand Chancellor of Kentucky He is a a member of the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows and a member of Webb Commanders Knights Tern plar and also of Oleika Tenmle of the Mystic Shrine Lexington Ky The many favorable press com ments and the practically unani of the mous endorsement newspa pers published in the mountain j counties comprising the tenth dis trict indicate that Judge Pollard l is regarded as a strong man and that his nomination would add strength to the ticket Below we j publish the splendid endorsement given him by his Route paper the I Jackson Times and by the Henry County Local published in the county of his birth The Times delights in calling the attention of the Democrats of r Kentucky to the candidacy of Judge 01I Pollard of this city for the nomination for Attorney General before the Democratic primary to be held May 27th Judge Pollard is one of the strongest men in the State A t Democrat of flawless record he has for many years been one of the bulwarks of his party in Eastern Kentucky Under his blillI iant leadership as Chairman of the i Campaign Committee in HI09II t Breathitt county was wheeled bath I into the Democratic column gi- vlIiigi a majority of i early 500 as against a Republican majority ofI dver 400 the previous year and franking possible the election of aI Democratic Circuit Judge1 and Cohfihonwealths Attorney Judge UedwiAe the successful candidate for Crrut JudgeI made public acknowledgment of Mr Pollards services Vhcn he gave out for publication on the day following the election an interview in which he said I ywe my election to 0 H Pollard His sagacity coolness and untiring energy in the management of the campaign produced time results which gave us the splendid victory- It is a fact worthy of mention that upon divers occasions pre vious to this when Judge Pollard served as Campaign Chairman Breathitt county was always car ried by the Democrats and with increasedmajorities His friends are proud of the fact that upon all occasions when acting in this disinterested capacity he never lost a battle but without a single excep tion the largest majorities ever given by the party in this county were in the campaigns under its management We believe we voice the senti ments of the Tenth District when we say we are proud to indorse a man like O H Pollard for the office of Attorney General An able and experienced lawyer a logical reason er an eloquent and forceful speaker a man of un blemished character and a verita ble bundle of nerve and energy his nomination would add strength to the ticket anti his electionwould reflect credit and honor upon the k + Jt IfJc YK t n party in the administration of the affairs of Kentucky As a campaigner MrI Pollard has few equals and no superiors in the State The Democrats of the Tenth District in asking his nomi nation are presenting a man who fills every require raent and is peculiarly fitted by reason of his I thisIulace on time ticket Thinking men must recognize the importance to the party and in fact the necessity of looking to this section in the future for re cruits The rapid increase in the population and the wealth of Eas tern Kentucky as the consequence of the development of our resour ces force this section to the front as the battle ground for the two contending parties Democratic success depends upon a judicious distribution of office and the char acter of the men selected as the party nominees The people are demanding men of high moral correctjour fellow townsman O II Pol lardJackson TimesI IIon O II Pollard qf Jackson Breathitt county having an nounced his candidacy for Attorney General before the State Dem ocratic primary we are pleased to say without a request or sugges tion from any one a few words by wuy of endorsement- As is well known to nearly ev erybody in this part of the State Mr Pollard is a selfmade man having struggled unaided from an humble beginning over many ob stacles and through not a little vicissitude to a commanding po sition in the legal fraternity of the State In challenging Statewide recognition as a lawyer he also builded a strong character and demonstrated that he is a man of innate force anal great energy sucha man indeed as wouldat ohce bring efficiency to the very important office of Attorney General andreflect credit on the party The Democrats in this region of the State where he was well known as a young man will beyond a doubt vote for him May 27th with uractical unanimity not only to further his ambitious but in order to put a competent man in the office No other name has had more prominence in Eastern Kentucky in an honorable way than 0 H Pollards and for some time he has maintained offices in both Lexington and Jackson thus widening his opportunity The fact is the logic of the situation points to Mr Pollard as the next nominee I for the office in question If he had been merela passive Demo crat undnot the steamengine Democrat that he is in other words if he had never done any thing for the party insteadof proving to be a born leader and a winner of ninny victories the geography of the case would almost COLEllA f KILLSaRA Dont let this most destructive ofall infectious diseases get a IIgripon your flock A few drops of BOURBON POULTRY CURE in the
