There is no better method of bringing out the mellowness and mildness of "Ken tucky's best" than two years natural age ing in wooden hogsheads. VELVET is Kentucky's best Burjey tobacco aged by Nature's method, die patient method, the expensive method, but the best method known to man.

The Outworn Preacher From the secular press No other form of organization com pares in wealth to the church. It in vestment in properties and endow ments, its resources of b'.-ncvoltnee are staggering in the tot:il, I erause the church is the basic organization of civilized society. Yet tho preacher who is the unit of religious effective mess is the poorest paid of any trained workers in the entire range of social activity. The pay of the preachers is astonishingly low upon the average tespite the fact that there is an upper strata of well-paid clergymen. The hurcVjes have been disposed to regard the minister as employed in a work of sacrifice, and with sacrifice must go offering. So the patient and plodding and in dustrious pastor, the man who is the instrument of God in the creation of oharacter effectiveness in the youth and in the reformation of those who Have lost moral anchorage, the man who sustains the standards of society in every department of associate ac tivity, is the man who is treated in the most slighting manner by the churches. He may give his entire life to the service of religion and hold the most responsible office in his denom ination and ma) have been finely in fluential through his wisdom, his training and his spirit, in promoting the wide interest of society. Yet he may be turned out without the pas turage that is provided even for a worn-out horse. He has the vision of the city not made with hands whose builder and maker i, God and he is instructed by the stern course of events that the eirth is not his dwell ing place. He is comforted l.y the words of his muster, that the foxes have holes and toe birds of the air have nests but fie Son of Man hath not where to lay his head. Such a case is an extreme one, but it is typical of muiliiudis of instances of clergymen of loss prominent seiv ice to their denominations, passing from under the gospel yoke, with no provision for the future Most of the denominations, however, are now v.ak to the need for earwig for the outworn clergymen. They havj or are creating sustentation funds, or psismn under some other name, that ! meager pit tance may be provided for the veter- ELECTROCUTE NEGRO WHO PLAYED POKER TO SEE IF HE'D MURDER A WOMAN Columbus, 0., F'ob. 7.

On the other hand raw fruits especially apples and ba nanas, also graham bread and whole wiieat bread promote a movement of DIAMOND BRIQUET Diamond Briquets aro made from the purest, richest portions of coal veins that have made the Pacific Coast Coal Company famous. The coal is ground fine, dried thoroughly and then mixed with the purest of asphalt asphalt with all the light, smelly oils burned off. This rich, soft mass then goes through massive presses that give it the tremendous pressure of almost 5000 pounds to the square inch. It emerges in briquets of cylindrical shape with rounded ends, each weighing 10 1-2 ounces, and each stamped with a diamond. Diamond Briquets have a heating value of 13,432 British Ther mal Units to the pound and extended tests prove them conclusively to be fully 10 per cent better than the best house coal now on the mar ket, with only eight and a fraction per cent ash. What the United States Bureau of Mines Says About Briquets 1. The even size of Briquet3 permits a more regular and thor ough combustion in the firebox or furnace. 2. Briquets produce much less smoke and in many cases prac tically no smoke. 3. They retain their shape in the fire and do not coke suffici ently to cut off the needed supply of air. 4. They bum to a fine ash without clinkering. Clinkers can be formed if all the absolute ash is not removed from the grates regu larly. 6. A Briquet fire requires much less care than one of raw fuel. Suggestions for Getting Best Results from DIAMOND BRIQUETS Clean out firebox thoroughly when you commence using Briquets. Use more kindling than used for lump coal. This will also aid in keeping chimney clean. Give the fire full draft until well started. Thi3 burns the smoke and while making more heat also prevents soot. Check the draft after fire is well started; very little draft is needed then, and fuel consumption will he reduced. When adding more Briquets increase the chimney draft while stove or furnace is open. This will prevent smoke from escaping into the room. A gentle shsl;in will clean the grates. If you have a strong draft carry some Briqueti ashes on the grates to help regulate the fire. Briquet ashes are light and ponis and the draft can work through. For banking cr to hold over night, cut off all drafts completolv after applying the Briquets. If you wish to bank fires every night, you will get the nest results by carrying a deep fire, Uavin'g ashes on the grate. THE J. D. LYNCH COMPANY One Block East of Depot Phone Main 10 . the bowels.

If poople past sixty years of age could be persuaded to go to bed as soon as they take cold and remain in bed for one or two days, they would recover much more quickly, especially if they take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. There would also bo less danger of the cold being followed by any of the more serious diseases. Ellis is the forty-sixth to pay the death penalty in Ohio.
