of very timid sweet dispositions Women who have little short fat noses are generous easy tempered and pleasant to live with but not as a rule handsome The sweetest of American types Is the nose that is just long enough but the least trifle broad foe its length It is not squat by any means It suggests good health and good temper It Is the ideal judged from the American mans standpoint Statistics show that the nice full sensible nose gets the husbands If the nose is thin and nostrils fine and narrow it means that the woman has a poor air supply and that she is liable to suffer from lung troubles and ah things that have their origin io the heart rThe Holiday Season The holidays are approaching more rapidly than some of us can realize It doesnt seem credible to say that it is only two weeks until M Christmas when the little folks will be in their glory Another year has almost passed and it has been a successful year for the Courier The merchants of the town are gradually and surely waking to the fact that it requires the cooperation of the newspapers and printers ink to conduct a successful business and the public In general begins to real ize that a community is a very dead one to say the least that does not do all it can to support a good local paper We are exceedingly glad to say that the people of this com munity give us their hearty support effortstto give them a good local paper and we in return appreciate their support The merchants who are make ing a success in their business are those who use printers ink and we feel vain enough to believe that this is a great factor in their suc cess We will issue only two more papers this year those under date of 14 and 19 We will take a need led rest during the holidays and trust that all our readers and patrons will enjoy themselves as much as we anticipate Twocent Rates A 7eent a mne passonger rate over all railroads Jin Kentucky will be ordered by the Kentucky State Railroad Commission within the next three months ane probably earlier While it is possible that some of therrailroads will resist the order In the courts it is certain that the ordertwill be issued and it Is believed by the legal advisers of the Railroad Commission that Itwill be made effective shortly after the order is issued All the members of the State Rail road Commission are now in Louis ville putting the finishing touches on a

home turning things repay turvy all the day but outside of this we fear your personal knowledge is very lame Now there should be daily watchfulness and I care on the part of the pIlre ntlI Inquiries should be made of scholars ol their progress and an activeII j interest taken In their advancement Occasional visits should be made tott the school room by every parent Communication should be frequent with the teacher in regard to theII child In every possible avenue the parent should exhibit a real interestl in the school standing and progress of the child The knowledge ofII such interest will put the child on his guard and mettle and spur himii on to greater exertion The gist ofII the matter is if you would haveII your schools what they ought to beII and what you desire they should beII you should have no lees interest than the teaoher or scholar nor no more think of losing this interest than they from the time the school opens in the fall until it closes in the spring o summer

of foolish suggestions and expect more from them than they would from a man If I had any word of counsel to give it would be Dont lecture a boy Dont nag him Dont per Hade him if he her done wrong Dont laugh at him if he has tailed perhaps in some overambitioul boy lab schemes Dont crush him Dont break his spirit Give the boy a chance Show him his mis take and then show him what he should do When
