Today the body of the dean of light harness drivers, who was fatally in jured yesterday when hfs mare, Miladi Guy, stumbled and fell while rounding a turn i.n a rare at the West Virginia state fair, was on its way home in letim ssee. There at Columbia burial will he made alongside the graves of his wife and son. “Fop” as the aged driver was af-i feet innately known to American turf I followers, had declared yesterday's would he his last. He had -aid the same thing for the past several years , but this time he declarer! he meant it-„ , “I m iust giving the old game one i more whirl, boys; and then its back to Momphito stay,” he said to track officials prior to the race. It was “.Pop’s" last race ar.d his fin al apnearan o was just such as he might have wished. It was “Geers day’ at the fair and thirty thousand persons had turned out to see the doughty horseman in what he announced would j be an attempt to, lower the world’s ; mile record for half miln tracks be-1 hind his last, trotter Peter Manning, liut the exhibition was never run. •Gi-t prior to the exhibition race, (leers entered the 2:14 trot with Mi. ■ ladi Guy. It was while rounding a turn that the Imr e stumbled, the sulky ov- ; erturned and Geers was hurled to the ground. The noise of the cheering stands and the thud of the flying hoofs were the last he heard. In the fall he suffered a fracture of the skull and lost consciousness. He died several hours later at; a local hos pital. TEN COM M AN DM ENTS TO BE I SEI) IN DRI VIM: j 1. I >» i vo r,n the i-i trh t side of the! road; it’s just as good as the left. 2.

M si of the older people had lapsed int,(forgetfulness of their faithful old companion of school days. Webster’s Blue Mack Speller. The old hook has keen shoved so far hack through the instrumentalities of modern education that its return had he* n regarded as a forlorn hope. Hut behold! It tran spires that one of the acts of the Oeorgiu legislature just earning to light, was a law ordering the public | school authorities ofthut state to put the old poller hack into the schools. Now a movement is under way in Al abama to have the legislature of that state to follow suit. As a matter of course we may expert the forthcoming of an agitation about the legislatures confisenini" rights that belong prop erly to the school hoards and the state department of education. It would] seem to he an infringement upon I properly constituted authority and the I interesting feature is that i will again precipiate an offensive campaign against the old Blue Rack, with its embattled Temple of Knowledge on the heights which all school children have found it hard to conquer. And there will also be forthcoming the boast of the older men and women who were taught to spell by the Web xtciian system and faith: these survi vors of spelling as it was taught in the good old day* of slab benches and chinked school House* may hold up their heads in confidence that they can "trip” the best of spellers devel oped under-the modern system, ome of the people of the present day—we might tnuko bold to include some of the teachers of the present day—know just about as much of good spelling as they know of the quill pen.

Weak Nervous "I was weak and nervous and run-down,” writes Mrs. Edith Sellers, of 460 N. 21st St., East St. Louis, 111. *'I couldn’t sleep nights, I was so restless. 1 felt tired and not in condition to do my work. I would havo such pains in my stomach that I was afraid I ’would get down in bed. . . My mother came to see me and suggested that I use I felt bettor after my first bottle. I had a better appe tite. It seemed to strengthen and build mo up. I am so glad to recommend Cardui for what it did for me. I haven’t needed any medicine since I took Cardui, and I am feeling fine.” Nervousness, restlessness, sleeplessness—t h e s e symp toms so often are the result of a weak, run-down condi tion, and may develop more seriously if not treated in time. If yculare nervous * and run-down, or suffering from a o m o womanly.. weakness, take Cardui. Sold everywhere. E-105 AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING 812,000,0»0 ELECTRIC LIGHT AND POWER BONDS.
