A WOMAN'S WORK
sometimes reduces her strength to the
depths of weakness her devotion to
household cares prevents sufficient
rest and recreation. Thousands of
women in this condition find Scott's
Emulsion exactly what they need; it
is predigested body-food so medically
perfected that every drop yields direct
returns in strengthening the organs
and tissues and in making healthy,
life-sustaining blood. Scott's Emulsion
is devoid of alcohol or any harmful
drugs, and overcomes tiredness and
nervousness in a marvelous way.
Not an Applicant
Although it has been repeatedly pub
lished that Col. Woodson May. of Som
erset, is an applicant for the Danville
Collectorship, the Advocate is reliably
informed that he has never had any in
tention of applying for the place. Mr.
May is doing a great service for the dem-
tcratic party in the republican Gibraltar
of Kentucky. He is serviug his second
term as a member of the State Central
Committee in the biggest Congressional
district in the State; he was a member
of the last State campaign committee,
making the fight for President Wilson;
he was one of the first men appointed
by Gov. McCrearv on bis staff; be wa
one of the three members of the Statt
campaign . committee who constituted
the press bureau for the National cam
paign in Kentucky; and Mr. May is also
a member of the executive committee
of the State Democratic Editorial Asso
sociation and is the editor of the only
democratic paper in the Eleventh dis
trict. Notwithstanding his great ser
vice for the democratic party and for
Gov. James B. McCreary in his race, the
Eleventh district has practically not
been recognized by the chief executive
in the distribution of patronage. It looks
like the Governor is making a critical
mistake in not rewarding such men as
Mr. May and men of his caliber in the
Eleventh. Danville Advocate.

Southern Railway to Furnish
- Drinking Cups.
Arrangements have been made by the
Southern Railway to furnish sanitary
individual drinking cups to passengers
on all trains and a large supply of cups
of the collapsible paper type has been
ordered. As soon as the cups have been
received each conductor will be furnish
ed with a supply and any passenger de
siring a cup will receive one free of cost
on application to the conductor. No
tice to this effect will be posted in each
coach.

volve a substantial expenditure which is
being undertaken to provide for the con
venience of patrons of the railway. All
common drinking cups have been re
moved from trains in compliance. with
U. S. Government regulations and the
statutes and ordinances of many States
and municipalities.
Hereafter passengers on all Southern
Railmay trains will be put to no incon

ing water and at the same lime will not
be subject to any possible infection thro'
the use of the common drinking cup.

All tender blues and grays.
