1 II U4iimjnjiii.u a i If ft! tit i CHILDREN'S HOME SOCIETY. Great Good Being Accomplished by Tills Organization in Kentucky and Elsewhere. COUNTY CULLINGS. ThoKoutucky Children's HomeSociety was the Bubject presented to our people at the First Baptist Church Sunday morning, at the Y. M.

0. A. parlors in the afternoon and at the M. E. Church, South, Sunday evening.

This great benevolence, while perhaps the youngest charitable work in the State, is accomplishing great good in its Bpccial field of effort. It mission is to find homes for homeless and destitute children and to place them with the least possible delay. It continues a personal supervision until they are of legal age. Under its method it is impossible that its wards Buffer, either neglect or abuse. It is undenominational, standing in relation to children as such.

If a child is homeless, is in good health, of sound mind and of good disposition, it may bo the recipient of the good offices of the society. The families in which the children are placed must be church going, Sabbath observing, materially able and socially in such position as to give the child advantage of home and education suitable to their station in life. The child is placed in such home on trial sufficiently long to insure satisfaction, in which case a permanant settlement is made on basis of special contract which secures to tho child love and care, and a permanent home; or legal adoption. This simple, humane and economical method of dealing with the child saving work is successful. Since its organization in 1S84 it has homed almost 10,000 children, has effected organizations in twenty-three States and territories, and is continuing its progress with increasing rapidity and effectiveness.

On December 20, 1S93, it was organized in Kentucky, since which time it has placed 120 children in excellent homes. The local phases of this society's work are tho key to its great success. The members of tho local board consist of representative workers from each church in the community, to which are added an associate member from each Magisterial district in the country. These keep tho society apprised of the whereabouts of homeless children, of childless homes, and when a child is placed within the jurisdiction of such board they exercise a quiet supervision. By this means every neighborhood has it representative and no child need bo long without a good home and friendly hands to help it in life's battles.

Ninety-two local boards have been organized in Kentucky, and the effort is to complete the work in the shortest possible time, so that every county will be in the field. Tho work is supported by tho benevolent public. It has a system of memberships, known as benefactor, patron and life, which are $100, $50 and $2o, respectively, payable cash, or in five equal annual installments. The annual mem bership is SI per year. Contributions however, of any amount, and at any time, are always needed and always welcome.

An effort is being made by the State Board of Management, of which Judgo E. H. Thompson, of Louisville, is Tresi-dent, to secure a fund of $3,000 by January 1st, 189S, for tho use of the work. Any information concerninc the work will be cheerfully given by the State Superintendent, Rev. Wm, Shoesmith, 930 Sixth street, Louisville, Ky.

An inquiry into tho methods of this society will bo rewarded by a knowledge of a charity, economical, humano and successful, and which will if regarded on base of its merit, secure you as an ardent sympathizer, a liberal supporter and a life long friend. Items Picked Up by the Bulletin's Correspondents in Mason and Elsewhere. EAST LIMESTONE. Ilog killing Is about finished ui In this neighborhood, Noblo Swlce went to Clnclnuatt on business Saturday. Mr.

Raroy, of Bath County, was hero on business Saturday. Miss Niinnlc UIe is visiting her clstcr, Mrs. II. C. Little, this wcclr.

Jlmralo Little and Chsillo Williams spent Sunday wlta friends at Wedonla. Hiram llallard. a civil colored citizen, had a hog shot recently by hunters. Farmers are complaining of depredations to their stone fences by hunters. The Maysvlllo tobacco buyer, who appraised Edward Little's crop of tobacco at cents per pound, don't seem to be up to date.

Mrs. It. C. Williams was tho recipient of basket of fruit, choice cake and other luxuries from the sumptuous birthday dinner at the home of Mrs. Rash near Tollesboro.

Mr. Andrew Mearns, late of Tollesboro, a reputable broom maker, was here on business the past week. Mr. Mearns has recently located In Maysvlllo where he will operato his business the coming winter. Professor Turnipseed, whoso school has been closed for some time, has tho sincere sympathy of his many friends in his recent sal bereavement, tho death of bis bright little daughter.

Several of his pupils acted as John Fishter had a good milk cow to die a short time ago from Borao unknown cause. Mr. Fishter seems quite unlucky, having had two excellent horses to die during the summer past altogether having lost a small fortune In stock during his thirteen years residence here, and had also one very destructive fire. Mr. and Mrs.

Meyers and children attended a reunion In honor of the seventy-third anniver sary of tho bfrlh of Mrs. Meyers mother, Mrs. William Rash, at her home near Tollesboro, Sunday the tth. Near all of her children, several grandchildren aud five great-grandchildren were present, numbering In all about thirty. Mrs.

Rash, who is in feeble health, was the recipient of mony useful presents, manifestations of tho love and esteem always due a loving mother. An ckgant dinner was served, and the day was enjoyed by all to perfection. Subpocnaes were served on several of our citizens Saturday to show cause la the County Court wliy tho Kennedy's Creek road shall not be removed from the creek. Tho singular feature about this is that some of the parties who joined In the filing of a petition to have this road removed, and the county has acted In accordance with the petition by removing tho road, then these parties come out and say they are not satisfied with the county's action, will not have a dirt road, nothing but a piko will satisfy their ambition. Well, it takes money to make a pike, aud when they are confronted with the question.

"Mow much will you give towards a pike?" they demurely hang their heads and say, "Oh, I ora not able to give anything," and yet have gone so far as to institute proceedings enjoining tho court to retract their action. They are not satisfied with a dirt road, they are not willing to wort tho road in tho creek and they are not willing to contribute anything toward building a pike, so there you are. Tho Greatest Discovery Yet. W. M.

Repine, editor Tiskllwa, 111., "Chief." says: "Wo woii't keep bouse without Dr. King's New Discovery for consumption, (coughs and colds. Experimented with many others, but never got the true remedy until we used Dr. King's New Discovery. No other remedy can tako its place in our home, as In It wo have a certain cure for coughs, colds, whooping cough, etc." It isildle to experiment with other remedies, cvenjlf they orejurgedonyouasjustasgood as Dr.
