Humphrey, Louisville, Besi the addresses by these getille- men of the state's most prominent professional and business men—it was Jed to select several leading eitt- zens from all parts of Kentucky to make some five-minute talks. In the meantime a call for the con- vention bad been distributed through- out the state for signers, and in a brief space of time it went back to Louisville with 267 names, represent- ing a majority of the counties. This call stated emphatically that tt was not made to any class of citizens but to all men who are concerned in the future of Kentucky, It was for- mally issued about two weeks ago and met with @ welcome the heartiness of hich left no doubt in the minds of dec v those who have worked so industri- ously for the success of the movement that the convention would prove a history-making body.

It is ped that as the delegates to the look on th steeds dash under the wire they will hope the stronger that other Ken- tucky products may reach that per- fection with proper handling. The State Commercial Convention —Will build up our cities, large and mall, —Will induce the restless and dis- satisfied of other states to settle bere, —Will improve and extend our country roads and our railroad facili- thes. —Will encourage every effort looking to the improvement of our navigable streams —Will bring together men who have faith in the future of Kentucky and who desire to manifest their faith by their works —Will enhance the value of our ag- ricultural lands by seeking the best methods for diversifying our products, rn best means for reaching the markets, Wiil aid our miners who are dig. g for coal in our hillsides, and those seeking markets for such prod- ucts, or rock asphalt, the timber from our forests and fron from our ore beds.

State Commercial Convention Notes, The mayors and Judges are to act aa delegates ex-officio, One editor from every newspaper in the state has been invited as @ dele- gate. A special tobacco sale will be ar- ranged by the tobacco warehouses to take place during the convention, Either « banquet or a reception, fol- lowed by an elegant smoker, will be tendered the delegates after the con- vention has adjourned, Rates of one fare for the round trip Je Lier from any part of Kentucky have been Brinton B. Davis,| secured over the railroads for dele- gates to the commercial convention. An invitation will be extended to all the members of the legislature, to all congressmen, to Senators Lindsay and Debor, to the court of appeals and to all the state officials to be present at the convention A competent stenographer has been engaged to take down all the speeches and proceedings of the convention so they may be published tn pamphlet form and distributed over the state This will give every county a look into the convention's work. The time is ripe for a new cam- paign in behalf of the industrial, agri- cultural and commercial prosperity of Kentucky, The country stands upon the opening of a new industrial era. Millions of capital, foreign and domes. tie, will shortly be invested in Amer- The executive committee has been notified by Mr. M. A. Seovell, director and chemist of the state college at Lexington, that he will prepare a pa- per on “The Possibilities of Ken- tucky as a Dairy State.” This will be another feature to add to the interest- ing program Each mayor in the state and every has been requested to county judge appoint delegates to the convention Cities of the first and second class will be entitled to 100 delegates; third class, 50; fourth class, 10; fifth class, 5; sixth class, 2, The county judge will appoint three delegates. Kentucky has great coal fields, prac- tically untouched, She has tural resources, unsurpassed, She has an abundance of timber, the value of which can not be overestimated. The state then needs men and capital to fevelop these natur@l stores of wealth, and the commercial convention offers the beginning of the opportunity, HAD A PRISONER.

It will show in Mechanicsburg. ge The word ship is masculine in French, Italian, Spanish and Portu- guese, and possesses no sex in Teu- tonic and Scandinavian, Even a man-of-war is she to our sailors. Perhaps it would not be an error to trace the custom back to the Greeks, who called all ships by feminine names, probably out of deference to Athene, goddess of the si But the sailor assizns no such reisons, The ship is to him a veritable sweetheart, and itis acommon thing to hear him ascribing it to vitality and intel- ligence The ship possesses a waist, collars, stays, laces, bonnets, ties, ribbons, ombins, earrings, chains, watches, jewels and scarfs, and there is often considerable ‘‘bustle’’ about her, She is full of pins, hooks and eyes. She also possesses a forehead, nose, head, eyes, shoulders and more than one heart. The keeper of a ship in port is familiarly called the ‘ship's husband.’’ If we ada that she looks best when fully ‘‘rigged out’ we may bave enough of sailor logic to count for the feminine pame. +t T A well known member of the Pa- ducab bar who is noted for his ab- sent-mindedness, Saturday morning came down town for the purpose of getting a shave. He discussed the war question at the barber shop until he had been shaved and was ready to start, when he announced that he had lost his collar. The employes of the shop turned out full force to find the missing article of apparel but could not do so, The entire shop was rausacked, and finally the lawyer had to leave without it When le went home he found the missing collar upon the mantle, where he had left it. He forgot to wear it down town, + oo A local solicitor for a newspaper called at a certain residence the otber day, and found a new use to which papers may be put. 1t will no doubt meet with the approval of those housewives who have not heretofore appreciated the value of a newspaper ‘I'd like to leave the paper here a week or two on trial’? remarked the solicitor. “No, don’t care for it,’” replied the lady, ‘‘but I'll go in the house and ask my sister if she wants it.’’ She disappeared and was gone several minutes. before she returned and shook her head. ‘No, she doesn’t want it either,’’ she remarked. “What's the matter?’’ inquired the disappointed solicitor. **Well, she tried 1 once,’’ was the rejoinder, ‘‘and it doesn’t fit her safe!’ ‘The solicitor laughed and conclu- ded the interview by observing that it was the first time he had ever heard of ladies taking a paper because it fits the shelves in their safes. + + + “Talking about dudes in the army,’’ remarked Dr. J. G. Brooks, “L'll never forget the time we all left Paducah during the late war for camp. There were several society boys among us, and there were also rousters, cook*, and most everything else in the company, and we were natarally a little ashamed of being in the company with them, I guess this was natural, for few of us had been in the habit of associating with them. It proved to be a case of pride going before a fall, however, for soon after we got in camp the fall came. “We were taken down here back of Clarksville, where we went into camp. We cleaned us off an avenue and pamed it ‘Camp Beauregard,’ That afternoon we cleaned our boots and shined them nicely, for we knew the ladies from the city would be audience had The lecture was etc., until duced. aba, accordiog to Mr. & young ex-newspaper Mnuw here, there is an ins called a +'chigoe,’’ or ‘burrow ing flea,’ It gets under the finger or Wwe nails, and in a few seconds can not be dislodged. Jt lays a smal! egg which hatches in about twenty- four hours, Unless the nail is split, it bursts, and if allowed to go long without attention it is usually the case that the member has to be am- putated. Many children can be seen running about minus several toes, some of them having no toes at all. When the natives are so unfor- tunate as to become afllicted with the pests they usually know from ex- itis necessary to split ‘his is a painful operation, but a very essential one. eh ae A good joke is told on Postmaster J. W. Cole, of Benton, He pretends that he is very anxious to get hold of some of those Spaniards and teach them a few things about the fighting qualities of a Kentuckian, especially one trom Marshall county. A few nights ago he awoke talking in his sleep, saying, ‘Jim give me a mateh. His wife of course asked him what he wanted with it, and he replied, ‘‘Hush up, and give me that match. I want to get fire started 80 We can have some supper, get to sleep easily and then we will feel like giving them Spaniards d—l!'s h—I to- morrow when we attack Morro Cas tle.’’ Next morning he dented saying any such words asleep or awake and begged his wife not tell such a thing on bim asthe boys would joke lim too much, but you know ‘tis said a woman can’t keep a secret by herself, hence the joke joke got out A HOUSEHOLD REMEDY.
