Gentlemen: Four years and eigh months ago I began using Univer sal Tire Filler and have been using ontinuously ever since. The filt er has been transferred from one easing to another and from one car to another during that period and I am unable to Bee that this long period of use has deteiorated it in any way. During this period I have had something like one hundred thousand garage men explain to me that the use of tire filler will ruin my automobile amsohitely. They have told me witr tears in their eyes how the engine would fall to pieces, the top shrivel up, the wheels go on the blink, the brake intngs cease to function, etc., . etc., all because of Universal Tire Filler, but you wil notice that I ad stil using it and like it and know a lot of other satisfied users. You will be interested in knowing that X used this filler in ry tires for a number of weeks before I told any member of my family about it They would not have discovered the difference to this day if i had not told them.

KENTUCKY THE kinship of Ken tucky and Virginia Is that of par ent and child. From Virginia came most of the settlers of the western state, and with them these pioneers brought Virginia institutions and ideals. It was not until 1750 that the first authentic journey was made by a white man into central parts of the region afterwards criled Ken tucky. Further explorations showed that this terrrii-v In i, two Im portant attrat: li tis fui settlers. The first v.-.s the sreat fertility of what wart culled the Blue Grass region. The so-called blue grass, from which this state is nicknamed the "Blue Grass State" is In no wise pe culiar to Kentucky. ; The second Inducement for settlers was the fact that there were no Indians living in this region. It was later found that many rovfng bands of savages crossed the Ohio from the north and sorely harassed the early colonists until Clark'B expedi tions into Ohio and Indiana checked their Invasions. In fact, the name Kentucky is probably derived from the Iroquois word kentka-ke, meaning "hunting land." Another interpretation is "dark and bloody ground," but this is doubtless incorrect The main highways of rravtl at that time were Daniel Boone's "Wilderness Road" through Cumberland Gap and down the Ohio. Hardy pioneers poured into this new territory in such numbers that in 1792, with the permission of Virginia, Kentucky was admitted to the Union as the fifteenth state with an area of 40,598 square miles. Kentucky has thirteen electoral votes for president. The re markable physical condition of its population is shown in a re port of the volunteers In the Civil war. This gave their av erage height as nearly an inch taller than the New England troops and with a correspond ingly greater girth of chest. ( by McClura Nmpwr Single HI,) Is Your Subscription Paid?

It found necessary to quench the with liberal servings of ice cream, af ter which they warbled again, this time a dainty ditty about an apple and a worm.

In Salem, Mass., a resident sued the town gas light company for 'damages caused by the killing of five shade trees through the escape of gas from n leaky main. A verdict for $1,000 against the company was rendered $200 a tree. The decision is said to have been awaited with a good deal of interest by surrounding towns, for tree Killing from this cause is a com mon thing. It has happened many times in ludlanupolis, according to re port, though complaints have not been heard lately with the frequency that characterized them rack in the days when natural gas was piped through the streets, bustlly aud no doubt often carelessly. The killing of a thrifty, well-grown shade tree ts usually a distinct loss to any property, commonly lowering its value. In view of the time required for the growth of such trees $200 is a moderate sum in the way of damages, and no amount of money, when it comes to that, can really recompense the owner of the trees. They have to him, especially If he planted and cared for them, a sentimental value that dol lars cannot measure. They have added beauty to his home and he has counted them among his treasures. To a real tree lover, a beautiful tree, whether his own or not, seems almost to pos- a personality of Its own and to see it struggle for life and gradually die, brings real sorrow. It Is to view a calamity. Indianapolis Star. Wonderful Bargain Demountable rims, spare rim and carrier, self starter, speed ometer, ammeter, oil gauge, one man gypBy top.
