JOINT SENATORIAL CONVENTION Asserting that he stood squarely and uairly upon every plank—especially the temperance plank—of the Democratic platform. Hon. Steven B. Fleming was unanimously nominated for joint senator for Adams-Allen counties at one of the best and most enthusiastic conventions ever held in this city. Mr. Fleming is a successful business man, and has a varied and extended knowledge of affairs so much needed in a legislative member. He is thoroughly honest and reliable and the sort of a Democrat that it is a pleasure to honor. His acceptance and pledge to carry out the platform principles as enunciated by his party may be accepted without fear or equivocation, as Mr. Fleming's word is always worth one hundred cents on the dollar. Hon. John C. Moran made a pleasing address in accepting his place as chairman of the convention, over whose deliberations he presided with both ease and grace. Mr. Moran is a prime favorite among the Adams county hosts of Democracy and their wish is that his light may continue to shine and radiate, as it will.

Hon E. G. Hoffman made the best campaign speech of the year, and now it is clear why the Democracy of Indiana and the nation will so surely triumph. Mr. Hoffman has a well modulated and pleasing voice, is a good sound reasoner and makes his points count for all they are worth. He is one of the young but brilliant leaders of the militant Democracy of Allen county, and some day, not far distant, you will hear of him in high place. Judge Hench is a representative of the old school of Democracy, but his short address at the convention finds him full to the brim of that old fashioned fighting brand of Democracy that is good to see. Judge Hench has long been on the firing line, and is yet good for many years more. And Congressman Adai r is is at his post of duty sawing wood and serving the people who elected him regardless of party. Be honest with yourself, Mr. Voter; wouldn’t Uncle Nate rattle considerably in trying to fill the place in congress by Mr. Adair. But Uncle Nate will never get a chance to fill the mold. —Bluffton Banner. Congressman Abraham Lincoln

Brick died at the Fletcher sanitarium in Indianapolis. Mr. Brick was first elected to congress in 1898, and has served continuously since then, representing the Thirteenth district. A few weeks ago he was re nominated as the Republican candidate this year. The latest Eighth district gossip is that “Uncle Nate" coughed up twelve thousand plunks for the pains of being George Cromer’s candidate for congress. The sum is large and exhorbitant to say the least. Congressman Adair is still voting in the interest of the people, regardless of party custom. There are no flies on John. —————— Mrs. Henry Getting, of Stop 20, was here shopping this afternoon. —o—— FEATHER RENOVATING. We will renovate your duck and geese feathers for 6 cents per pound.

CERTIFIED SCHOOL Graduates from Berne Schools Now Privileged to Teach HAVE GOOD SCHOOLS Superintendent Opliger Gets this Concession from State Board While Superintendent Opliger was attending the state teachers’ meeting at Indianapolis last week, he performed a service for the Berne high school that will long be remembered by them. He prevailed upon the state superintendent to make the Berne high school a certified school, thus enabling their graduates of last and previous years to teach in any school in Adams county, providing, of course, should they pass the required teachers' examination. Graduates from commissioned or certified schools, only, are privileged to teach. This made it necessary for Berne school graduates io finish a course in some normal school or state college. At this time, graduates from the Decatur, Berne and Geneva schools are privileged to teach. The Berne schools are among the best schools of its kind. Their course of study is high, and the conduct of the schools generally compare favorably with any other in Indiana. Their instructors are among the best, and by placing them upon an equality with other schools, is an incentive for them to even excel! their past record. EVENTS IN SOCIETY

WATCH YOUR TONGUE. If Furred and Coated, it is a Warning of Trouble to Come. When it is the morning after the night before, you uo not nave to look at your tongue to know that the stomach is upset, the head is aching with a dull rhythm, and that all the world looks dreary. The real time to watch the tongue is all of the time. If it is coated with a white fur, or possibly with dark trimmings, even though the stomach does not tell you by the acute pains of indigestion that it needs help, yet the coating shows that you are getting into a bad way and that there is need of Mi-o-na. Mi-o-na is so positive, so sure, so reliable in its curative action upon the stomach that Holthouse Drug Co. the local agents, give an absolute guarantee with every 50-cent box they sell to refund the money unless the remedy gives absolute and complete satisfaction. • o— BUTLER & BUTLER are ready to do your concrete work such as walks, foundation and cellar walls, cement work guaranteed.

“IN A BREATH OF AIR” Health Comes From Knowing How and What to Breathe. Both health and disease come “in a breath of air.” Dust laden with the germs of consumption or other disease is inhaled on every street, but disease does not develop unless the germs find conditions suitable for growth. In the catarrhal condition there is an ideal culture medium for these germs, as the weakened tissues are like a hotbed where the germs thrive and multiply until dangerously active. If you have catarrh, use the easiest simplest and quickest cure, the direct method of Hyomei, whose wonderful medicated air destroys germs and makes catarrh and germ infection impossible. You do not risk a cet in testing Hyomei’s healing virtues, fo r with every SI.OO outfit Holthouse Drug Co. give a guarantee to refund the money if it fails to cure. — M. F. Topp, of Wabash, was here visiting Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Woodward after which he returned to his home this afternoon.
