STOMACH TROUBLE
FOR FIVE YEARS
Majority of Friends Thought Mr.
Hughes Wonid Die, But
One Helped Him to
Recovery.
Pomeroyton, Ky.—In interesting ad
vices from this place, Mr. A. J. Hughes
writes as follows: “I was down with
stomach trouble for five (5) years, and
would have-sick headache so bad, at
times, that 1 thought surely I would die.
I tried different treatments, but they
did not seem to do me any good.
i got so bad, I could not eat or sleep,
and all my friends, except one, thought 1
would die. He advised me to try
Thedford’s Black-Draught, and quit
taking other medicines. I decided to
take his advice, although 1 did not have
any confidence in it.
I have now been taking Black-Draught
for three months, and it has cured me—
haven’t had those awful sick headaches
since I began using it.
1 am so thankful for what Black-
Draught has done for me.”
Thedford’s Black-Draught has been
found a very valuable medicine for de
rangements of the stomach and liver. It
is composed of pure, vegetable herbs,
contains no dangerous ingredients, and
acts gently, yet surely. It can be freely
used by young and old, and should be
kept in every family chest.

Once Mighty Kings and Queens of
Egypt Now IVIerely the Subjects
of Scientific Examination.
The mummies of some fifty kiaga
and queens now lie side by side in
the Cairo museum, a grim reminder
of the unstable fabric of earthly
glory, remarks the Dundee Adver
tiser. Professor Elliot Smith is not
wholly unmindful of that earthly
glory, nor of the violated sentiments
involved in thus displaying ani'flstt^^
aloguing these remnants of royal
power. He reminds us that but for
the museum authorities these mum
mies would have been destroyed by
robbers, and as a slight return for
the protection thus afforded he
claims the right of a respectful eci-
entilic examination. Indeed, the ex
amination has already been made.
Many of the bodies have been care
fully unwrapped and so we know for
the first time that King Sagnounri,
who reigned 3,000 B. C., was mur
dered, his ‘^battered skull and
wounded body” testifying eloquently
to that fact. Doubtless the event
made quite a stir in its day, but tar
iff discussion, prize fights and the
like have driven it from the modern
memory. We know now that Mor
nephtha, the Pharaoh of the exodus,
erroneously supposed to have been
drowned in the Bed sea, was a cor
pulent man, nearly bald, with a
fringe of white hair over the
temples.
SCHOOL FOR ADULTS.
“People’s high schools,” as they
are called, have been flourishing in
for h
.country -there We 70 such schqols,
with 8,000 pupils, and one school at
Askov, in South Jutland, has been in
existence since 1863. One-tentn of
the population of Denmark, it is esti
mated, has passed through these'
schools, which now are given small
state subsidies, though there is no
state interference with the institu
tion. The schools are not technical
or ‘^practical.” They seek only to
develop minds on broadly cultural
lines. There are no examinations
for admission or for leaving; much
of the instruction is given by lec
tures, and the teacher is given wide
latitude.
Norway and Sweden, it may be
added, have experimented success
fully with similar institutions.

NEW WAY TO MEASURE LAP®
Tennesseean Ha» System of Welghlnoi
Which May Yet Be Brogght
to Perfection.
A Tennesseean has discovered ft
new way to measure large areas of
land. He weighs it—rather, te
weighs his map and computes the
measurements from the scale lec-
ords. Louis C. Mathey of Spot,
Tenn., writes to Engineering News
that he has for thirty-four years
been obtaining land areas by the
simple process of accurately plotting
the* survey to scale on good paper,
then cutting away the paper outside
the boundary with a sharp knife and
w^ghing the folded plot of the tract
off, chemist’s or Jeweler’s scale ac-
c^ately to one sixty-fourth grain.
3e sends a sample map of a tract
of 16,651 acres, plotted on a scale
of 80 rods to the inch on a sheet of
18x84-inch paper which weighed
43 8-33 grains. Engineering News
comments:
“While the plan might serve as a
rough check on computations, the
limit of error in plotting and trim
ming, as well as in weighing, would
make the scheme only applicable
where land is of very low value.”
TO MAKE COAL MINING SAFE
Simple Test for Fi'e Damp Said to
Be the f. i hat Has So Far
Put Forward.
One of the simplest of the many
suggested tests for firedamp in mines
is that described by Henry Briggs to
the Scottish Society of Arts. It is
an attachment that may be applied
to any oil or spirit safety lamp, and
consists of a loop of copper wire sup
ported on a brass rod passing through
the oil vessel. To make a test the
loop is moved into the flame. This
becomes instantly non-luminous, but
if firedamp is present in the sir the
gas cap-is clearly seen. The test
can be made in a moment at any
time without turning dpwn or put
ting out the light.
It is claimed that the percentage
of firedamp this method will detect
is exceedingly small, and the results
of trials on both laboratory and
mine go to show that this is one of
the most sensitive, accurate and ex
peditious means of revealing the
presence of inflammable gas in mine
or other air. *■

NO MONOPOLY OF LOYALTY.
A South side man and his wife,
who have no children but who keep
a dog, were discussing the fidelity
of dumb friends last night,' -Wiien she
said:
“Isn’t it remarkable how- a dog
will love some worthless old fellow,
even though he might be a mur
derer? I can’t understand it—^it
seems as though even a dog would
imderstand what a brute some men
are. Some dogs will stick to their
masters through anything.”
“So -will some women,” remarked
her husband. And he cited a recent
Kansas City case to prove it.
But still she doesn’t understand
it.—Kansas City Star.
BURGLAR WITH KIND HEART
Returns Stolen Money When He
Learns for What Purpose It
( Has Been Saved.
'NoHH'
. H. Haynes, ex-,Sheriff of the
ty of Surry, do hereby' certify
the following- desci-ibed real
tc in said county and state, to-wit:
) one hundred and fifty acres of
Id in Bryan Township, Surry
■ounty and listed on tax books in R.
Smith name, was, on the 2 day of
ne 1913, duly sold by me, in the
naiiner provided by law, for the de-
m^ienttaxes of R- .T- Smith for the
1910 amounting- to Three and
100 dollars, including- interest and
alty thereon and costs allowed by
, when and where S- M- Arnold
chased said real estate at the
;e of ■‘B20.00, he being- the best and
lest bidder for tlie .same. And I
her certify that unless redemption
Mayfield added to the fund in the
l»x from day to day, but did not
taow how much he had deposited.
One night a burglar forced his way
ijjto the stand and stole the wooden
saymgs bank Mayfield discovered
tte theft of his nest egg and told the
st^pf of the theft to many persons
who stopped to make purchases at
the stand. He mourned the theft, he
sa^, chiefly because his vacation was
called off.
, he received a letter, which
inctosed $56 in currency and the fol-
lowng note: “I burgled the stand,
but X do not want to keep your vaca-
tion money. Your Burglar Eriend.”
,l„™ow now that I had saved up
> said Mayfield, and now I can
take my vacation. I guess the bur
glar heard my hard-luck story over
the counter."_San Erancisco Chron
