New World's Record in
Races on Lexington Track
Lexington, Ky., Oct. 1. The fea
ture of the second day's racing at
the meeting of the Kentucky Trot
ting Horse Breeders' Association
was the Kentucky futurity for 3-
year-olds, the result being in doubt
until the fifth and final heat.
In the first mile Periscope, the
favorite, after leading into the
stretch, broke and BrusilofT won
easily. The second heat was a close
finish between Periscope and Brusil
ofT, the last named winning by a
narrow margin. The filly won the
next three heats with ease and the
time of the race constitutes a world's
record for five heats for trotters of
that age. The winner is trained,
driven and owned by J. L. Dodge, of
Lexington, who bought her from her
breeder. John E. Madden, for $lO,-
000, when the filly was beginning her
two-year-old racing career.
Early Dreams made the 3 fastest
heats of the season in his winning
race, the 2.06 class for trotters, aver
aging 2.03 1-2. Sanardo won the
2.05 class pacing and gained a record
in the first heat of 2.00 1-2.
"CARRY ON"!
If Constipated, Bilious |
or Headachy, take
"Cascarets"
Feel grand! Be efficient! Don t
stay sick, bilious, headachy, consti
pated. Remove the liver and bowel
poison which is keeping your head
dizzy, your tongue coated, your
breath bad and your stomach sour.
Why "not get a small box of Casca
rets and en-joy the nicest, gentlest
laxative-cathartic you ever experi
enced? Cascarets never gripe, sick
en or inconvenience tine like Salts,
Oil, Calomel or harsh pills. Casca
rets bring sunshine to cloudy minds
and half-sick bodies. They work
while you sleep.

The Genuine
Economy of
'Blue Ribbon' Coal
The coal we sell you comes
from the best anthracite veins
in Pennsylvania.
It gives the utmost of heat
units and burns down to a clean
white ash.
It's real coal —"Blue Ribbon"
coal. * *
You get more heat per ton
and more heat value for your
dollar.
This Winter, of all Winters,
all waste should be reduced to
the barest minimum, and our
"Blue Ribbon" coal wil 1 help
you economize in the consump
tion of fuel as never before.

ACCURATE WORK
is very difficult when one works un
der constant eye-strain. Many peo

their work, due in many cases to
either defective eye-sight, or to im

curs at the Orpheum theater to-night. I
i when Lee Shubert will present this I
gieat favorite comedian in his new

[brilliant comedy, written in three acts I
and described as a comedy romance
of New York life. Mr. Hodge is said
[ to have a vehicle which promises to
I afford him the greatest success j
achieved since his sensational tri

, esti d in presenting new plays and be- I
j lieving that it is due to his loyal I
