if you havent the standing that you would like to have just a few subscriptions would place your name among the headliners There is plenty of time to win if 7911 will only im prove it shouldffeel the

brilliant honors Do not become disheartened and let all the work your friends have done for you and all the votes you have be literally thrown away for you owe it to those friends who have been kind enough to enthusiastically support you from the start and give you subscriptions ofttimesi wholly unknown to you to show the determination and energy necessary to win Show them that you appreciate their kindness by making an effort yourself You can win Its merely up to you It should be borne in mind that this is not a longdrawnout con test as most newspaper contests are but a short live election closing now in a short time The purpose is to select the live most popular young ladies in this city and surrounding country as the representatives of Mt Sterling and the ADVOCATE to the greatest of all summer festivities Besides the magnificent fetes on the coast awaiting theta as guests of the ADVOCATE they will be treated to a tour of the East through the principal Eastern cities taking in public places in interest allover and including a visit in Washing ton D C UEMEMHKU The bier contest closes in a short time The time is short Go right after the votes now dont allow your competitors to secure too much ofa lead A few sub scriptions would place any young lady in first place in her district and judging from the number of people who are coming voluntarily to the office and paying their sub scriptions they are easy to get You wjll be surprised to find how many friends you have who will only be too glad to assist you in winning the royal honors ITS Ul TO TILE GIRLS Candidates it is now up to you Make every minute count from now until the close of the contest and the victory is yours The standing of the contestants remain about the same some of the girls prefer to hold back until the finish in preference to making a big score in the results each week Do not think at this stage of the game that because you are a few thousand in the lead of your nearest competitors that you have the race won for there are several farther down who may have a lit tle something up their sleeve that will surprise you There is only one way in which to win in this contest and that is secure every available vote and subscription it is possible to get None of the candidates should feel the least bit discouraged at this time but should get to work to win show your friends that you are in the race to win out and are going to make the race of your life in securing the brilliant awards Do not become dishear tened and let all the work you have done in gathering in votes and all the votes you have to your credit be literally thrown away for you owe it to your friends who have been so kind to enthusiastically support you who gave you subscriptions to show your determination and energy necessary to win Show them you appreciate their kindness by making a fight that will mean victory for you Continued OD pause tone r JUNE DANCE To be Given at Trimbles Hall

compose the next Democratic State ticket Upon how wisely they do this ftask will largely depend the success or failure of its ticket in the fall election We regret exceedingly the apparent lack of interest manifested in the primary Every Democrat owes it to his party and his State to participate in the selection of our nominees There was a time in Kentucky when anybody under the party emblem could win but that day is past It is now incumbent upon us to select only our best men as standardbearers Unless we do this the ticket will beTepu= diated andas punishment we will be given four more years of Repub lican misrule but fortunately for the State this calamity can never again occur if the Democrats will do their duty next Saturday Be fore the primary arc men of high character and magnificent qualifica tions of which a ticket can beselected that will easily receive popular aproval in November We therefore urge every Democrat in the State to carefully acquaint himself with the private life and personal record of every candidate asking his endorsement and then vote with an eye singled on party success and the general welfare of our beloved Commonwealth DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY IS JULY FIRST Saturday July 1st is the day set for the Democratic State pri mary There are candidates for every oflice from the Governor on down On the ballot you will find the names of men who are among the best that this grand old Commonwealth produces now or ever did produce And it is the duty of every American voter residing in the State of Kentucky and registering as a Democrat to go to the polls and cast his vote for the man ho conscientiously believes will best serve Democracy And if every Democrat will so to the polls and vote for whom he believes to be the best man there is little in fact there is no doubt but that the rooster will crow louder next November than he has crowed in many years and Kentucky like the Nation will again be controlled bythe Democratic p- artySuttonfastn Co

Conclusion IIIAgain and again we hear people snuIf only I had a chance I could do something in the world but thetrouble is that these peo pie do not know what to do with their chances Everyone in America has a fair andequal opportunity but some use it to a better advantage than others Vhen we stop to think must we not admit that of all the civilized nations in the world there are very few that can sur pass our country in the opportu nities it offers to her people As an example let us consider the educational advantages of this country Who with any desire for knowl ridge cannot obtain it in this country 1 Surely no one For the public schools are open to all irrespec tive of wealth nationality or birth Thousands of boys and girls are graduating from our public High Schools tonight who even if not able to pursue their studies further have sufficient knowledge to perform the work before them How many of the pupils could have done this had they had toI pay for their education as do most of the pupils of the European countries 1 To give the poorer class an equal educational advan TO BE GIVEN AWAY This Handsome Rubber Tired Buggy Valued at 12500 to be Given Away Absoltitely Freet

PREWITTi 4 HOWELLLeading Hardware and Machinery Men of Mt Sterling Kentucky f t r f+ I j h tage evening schools are opened for those who work during the day Here they are as carefully instructed in the same branches as the pupils of the day schools and many are fitted for our col leges and universities by attend ing only these evening schools For those who are not physically fit to study in the close school rooms open air schools are fast forming with very satisfactory results To encourage education still further many public libra ries are established whichare thrown wide open to the public and if properly consulted offer a wealth of knowledge Another great advantage of this country is the political freedom The immigrant is so dazed by this idea that at first he fails to grasp it It seems very wonderful in deed that all people should be considered equal That any ordi nary man is free to attain to any office in the State or nation if he is only ambitious enough to work for it How different it all is from the monarchies in Europe There no matter how intelligent a man is he cannot hold any oflico unless he be of noble birth or of great wealth while many men who have no brains and little edu cation hold the highest offices in the landand thousands of educated and intelligent men must abide without a murmer by the harsh laws of these men When we think of all this it does not seem at all strange that foreigners should flock to this country and consider it a wondrrulland The social life too is very much broader here than it is in Europe The average family in America has a comfortable and sanitary home But the average family in Europe makes its home in two or three rooms with no improvements whatever and their food is not so good or various as ours either Indeed how can they have many comforts when the average work ing man in Europe gets a salary between three and seven dollars a week And thus there is a very wide abyss between the rich and middle class These are only a few of the many advantages that surround us And when we realize till this have we not many chances to do great thin s and must we not in our turn try to make our countryI what our forefathers

Kentucky To own a home is one of tho most cherished thoughts that is i iimplantedwithin the human breast f The young man engaging in busi ness in the city finds himself at some time calculating the amount necessary to begin payments upon property that will represent a habitation for himself and those dependent upon him In the country the tenant of the farms is awakening to the fact that by energy and saving he can purchase a small tract of land build his home and know the proud h inde pendence of being a landowner and master of his own destiny There is little need of this class in Kentucky seeking newer fields In this commonwealth the opportunity is always at hand Ken tucky may have some drawbacks but on the whole her people her soil and surroundings make home investment just a little better than the allurements of distant sections There is not the slightest desire to discourage those who contemplate removal from the State nor to depreciate the merits of other lauds but to

always has been looked to as one of the best commentators upon art of his day A bookof his sayings on art questions is almost as valuable as one of his books ofpencil drawings and these are by many esteemed above any thing he has succeeded in executing in vindication of his profound theo ries and convictions Ho has recently had something to say on this very subject of effectism and exaggera tion What especially pleases the ignorant is an unexpressive minute ness of execution and a sham nobility of action Tho vulgar care nothing for the sincere observation that scorns theatric poses and is in terested only in the perfectly simple but far more thrilling attitudes of real life People ravo over poses that are nover seen in nature and call them artistic because they suggest the swagger of Italian models seeking employment When you have seen a picture or read a bit of literature and noticed neither drawing nor coloring nor style you have felt an emotion that filled your heartLB05tou

streets said tho man whose mili tary interest is based on real serv iice But the plain citizen neednot think that the soldiers in full dress are going to add vivacity and color to the streets as do tho red and gold warriors in European cities Nothing like it The order merely means tthat khaki and olive drab uniforms are not good form hereafter The gorgeous dress uniform of the American private is a little more stunning than that of a sleeping car conductor but not as nobby as the garb ofa hotel bellboy- POLITENESS INDEED In a little communo in Brabant is to ho seen a big notice board at the entrance of the town On it appears the following notice to automobiles One hundred Kilometers an hour When we know that 100 kilometers equals 75 miles it scarcely need be added that the wit of the
