Chronic Diseases a Specialty..)

I Positively Gaarantee

you a sufferer from weak or diseased eyes'? Is your sight impaired oi failing? Do your eyes smart, burn or itch when reading: or doing any near work? Are you troubled with inflamed or granulated lids? Such conditions are caused by errors of refraction. Don't be deluded by the idea that nature will cure this, or that it will soon pass away. Delays and excuscs avail nothing. The disease grows while you hesitate. to permanently correct such conditions with out operations or the use of prisms, which are always dangerous. A large per cent, of all so-called diseases of the nervous system are caused by excessive strain upon the nerves of the eye, which, being intimately connected with all parts of the body by the sympathetic nerves, may cause diseased conditions to exist, and such ills as headache, constipation, piles, indigestion, dyspepsia, nervous debility and prostration, female weakness, painful and protracted menstruation, or even lits or insanity be the natural consequence. I REMOVE THE CAUSE by correcting these errors, and absolutely guarantee to give satisfaction in every case undertaken.

List of Couples Whose Marriage Returns Were Never Made to the Cletk.

The law of Indiana makes it obligatory upon the minister or justice performing a marriage ceremony to make due return of the certified license to the county clerk within ninety days. Failure to comply with this law is punishable by a fine of not less than five dollars or more than one hundred dollars.

A representative of THE [JOURNAL last Friday went through the books at the cierk's office and Lobtained the names of all the couples for the last ten years whose marriage returns have not been made by the officiating minister or justice. In making up the list for 1900 the names of several very prominent society couples were obtained. but in looking over the returns made since the record was made up by the clerk after the lapse of the ninety Jays these names were all of them found and, of course, dropped from the list. The minister by whom most of them were returned, however, is still liable to prosecution for violation of the law. Had not the happy thought occurred to the reporter to go through the returns brought in after the expiration of the legal time and not yet recorded, there would probably have been some emphatic howls made when this evening's JOURNAL put in its appearance.

The licenses upon which returns bive not yet been mude were issued to the following parties: 1891.

John Cully and Alice Spurrier. Bruce Jack and Edith Brewer. John W. Brant and Lucy York. 1392. M. M. Luzader and Sarah Truax. Felix J. Kellar and Mary L. Hall. 1893. George F. Jones and Mary E. Roberts. 1894. Daniel F.Walker and Jennie Nichols.

FAIR ASSOCIATION.

The Monthly Meeting Is Not CharacterIzed By a Rush of Transactions.

The directors of the fair association met last Saturday in regular monthly session aud the meeting did not consume much time. There was quite a discussion over the amount to bj appropriated for the speed ring, and it was finally agreed to hang up $3,000 in purses, a slight increase over last year.

The Belgian hare breeders presented their claims for recognition, and it was agreed to oll'or prizes in four classes. 1 'aul Hughes was made an honorary member of the hoard, in consideration of his long and distinguished previous services.

CARRIE NATION.

The Eiks Will Undeavor' to Secure lltr l-or One of the Fourth of Jul\ Attractions.

The Elksiast. Saturday wrote to Carrie Nation asking for her terms to appear here on the Fourth of July at the fair grounds. If she will come at anything like a reasonable price she will be engaged. Said one of the committee "Her appearance here would doubtless accomplish much good. We would have her deliver an address of half an hour and then demonstrate to the crowd how she smashes saloons. A big bar will be rigged up on the platform and after the address Mrs. Nation will take her little hatchet and demolish it. If a thing like this wouldn't catch on 1 don't know what would. It has been a mighty long time since Crawfordsville has had a good temperance lecture and if Carrie Nation can give us one and at the same time furnish an instructive diversion for the glorious Fourth let her come by all means.''

J. J. Insley, chairman of the committee appointed by the Elks to solicit the presence of Carrie Nation here on July fourth, Monday received from Carrie a postal card in reply. The card read as follows: "IN JAIL, TOPEKA, Kansas, March 2, 1901—J. J. Insley, Crawfordsville, Ind.—Cannot now say about coming. Things change so I dare not say "Lovingly, "CARRIE NATION*."

The fact that Carrie may consider the proposition later on is pleasing to the Eiks and they will spare no pains or expense to land the lady. If she comes she will be shown no end of a good time by her admiring friends, the Eiks.

THE MILUBOUGHT.

The Wire Company Buys the Mill For the :7 Drawing of Wire Front Rods.

The Wire Fence and Nail company last Friday purchased the mill for the drawing of wire from tho rods. It was built by the Turner, Vaughn & Taylor Company, of Cuyahog Falls, Ohio, and sections of it will be shipped in a short time. All of it will be here by the middle of the summer and the mill will be in operation by September 1. The fence and nail machines which will go into the buildings of the Dovetail company, will be running early in -the epring and employing a large force of men. The mill for the drawing of wire will occupy a new brick building 102 by 280 feet, the construction of which will be begun as soon ai spring breaks.

The books are still open at the company's oflieo for subscription of stock by the members of the original company and those expecting to take it will do well to hurry. Already enough outside money is in sisdit to more than make up the requisite $50,000.

Senate Bills.

Out of the 413 Indiana senate bills in troduced the Democrats have started just 91. These have met, many of them, with ^ad fates. Inman, the Democratic leader, has olTored but one bill, ar. election purifying measure, which the elections committee at once indefinitely postponed. Lawler\,has introduced no bills. Johnston, Montgomery county, has introduced 14, the largest number of any Democratic member. Of these, two have passed, four have passed second reading, one has been favorably reported, one ordered printed and five killed outright on committee reports. Of ten bills introduced by Stilwell, three have been 'killed outright and two more are, dying in committee. Three only havel passed.

Senator Thompson, Marion county. Republican, has introduced -25 bills.

A Divorce Granted.

Last Saturday in tho circuit court Judge West neatly severed the marital cords which bound the lives and det-tinies of Gloriana and Bill Brooks. Gloriana was the plaintiff and William made no appearance.

MRS. F.M.KNAPP

Hospitals in our great cities are sad places to visit. Three-fourths of the patients lying QII. thoso snow-white beds are women and girls

Why should this be tho case Because they have neglected themselves. Every one of these patients in the hospital heels had plenty of warning in that bearing-down feeling, pain at the left or right of the womb, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back. All of these things are indications of an unhealthy condition of the ovaries or woinb.

What a terrifying thought! these poor souls are lying there on those hospital beds awaiting a fearful operation. Do not drag along at home or in your place of employment until you are obliged to go to the hospital and submit to an examination and possible operation. Build up the female system, cure the derangements which have signified themselves by danger signals, and remember that Lydia E. Pinkliam'H Vegetable Compound has saved thousands of women from the hospital. Read the letter here published with the full consent of the writer, and see how she escaped the knife by a faithful reliance on Mrs. Pinkham's advice and the consistent treatment of her medicines.

GREAT MISFORTUNE.

Willis Cox's Pottery Factory Burned l.nst Saturday and He Himself Injured.

Last Saturday Paul Cox telephoned from Gas City that the pottery factory of his father. D. W. Cox, had been destroyed by fire at threo o'clock that morning.

During the progress of the lire a wall fell killing one man outright and seriously injuring Mr. Cox. He was struck by the falling brick and sustained an ugly gash on the back of his head

The man who was killed was near to Mr. Cox when tho wall fell and how Mr. Cox escaped death is a marvel. The plant was totally destroyed but a considerable part of the product was saved.

There was a small insurance on the factory but not enough to begin to cover the los9. Tho factory was doing remarkably well and had just begun to make money. Mr. Cox had devoted his enure energy to it for several years and was just getting to a point where he would be able to reap the fruit of his labor.

A probably exaggeratory dispatch from Gas City last Saturday is as fol­

I h:id suffered from suppressed and painful menstruation from a girl. The doctors told me the ovaries would have to be removed. 1 took treatment two years to escape an operation, but still remained in miserable health in both body and mind, expecting to part with uojr reason with each coming month. After using one bottle of the Compound, I became entirely rid of the trouble in my head. 1 continued to use your remedies until cured. "The last nine months have been passed in perfect good health.

A telephone message from Gas City Sunday btated that Willis Cox war not seriously injured and would be able to be about in a few days. He wa« merely stunned and badly shocked by being -.truck on the head by a falling brick. He managed to save from iho (ire $3,500 worth of finished pottery but the building itself wag a total wreck.
