INTERESTING FACTS. The Smith, Yager & Falk Drug Co. Offer to Cure Catarrh —The Medicine Costs Nothing If They Fail. When a medicine effects a cure in 98 per cent of cases, and when we otter that me&icine on our own personal guarantee that it will cost the user nothing if it does not cure Catarrh. it is only reasonable that people should believe us, or at least put our claim to a practical test when we take all the risk. These are facts which we want the people of Decatur to substantiate. We want them to try Rexall Mucu-Tone, a medicine prepared from a prescription of a physician whose specialty was Catarrh, and who has a record of thirty years of cures to his credit. We sell more bottles and receive more good reports about Rexall MucuTone than we do of all other catarrh remedies sold in our store, and if more people only knew what a thoroughly dependable remedy Rexall Mucu-Tone is. it would b ethe only catarrh medicine we would have any demand for. Rexall Mucu-Tone is quickly absorbed and carried by the blood until it thoroughly disinfects and cleanses the entire mucous membranous tract, destroys and removes the parasites which injure and destroy the membranous tissues soothes and heals the irritation and soreness, stops the mucous discharge, and builds up strong, healthy tissue, relieves the blood and system of diseased matter, stimulates the muco-cells, aids disgestion and in proves nutrition until the whole bedy vibrates wit hhealthy activity. |ln a comparatively short time there is a most noticeable gain in weight, strength, good color and feeling of buoyancy. We urge you to try Mucu-Tone, beginning a treatment today. At any time you are not satisfied, simply rome and tell us. and we will quickly return your mone without question nr quibble. We have Rexall Mucu-Tone in two sizes. 50c and SI.OO. The Smith, Yager & Falk Drug Co., Decatv.'- Indiana.

HAVE YOU GOT ONE? The Law Books Are Going Like Hot Cakes A GREAT PREMIUM We Have a Few Left So Be Sure and Call Early There has been a great demand for the great premium given away by the Democrat to those who pay their subscription one year in advance. Many o f our subscribers have taken advantage of the offer and have secured a book containing a synopsis of all Indiana laws. It is a premium worthy of the consideration of all. It is one which will be a valuable acquisition to the library of any indivdual who cares to be posted on the laws of the state. We still have a number left, and we advise those who have not yet secured one to eall early. There is not a farmer or a citizen who is not interested in some of the laws at least of this great state. There is scarcely an individual who during the course of a few months will not have many occasions to refer to a law book and when you can secure a book properly indexed with a synopsis of all the laws by simply paying for a year's subscription, it is a proposition which should appeal to all. The limited number we have left will soon be gobbled up and if you fail to get one it is not a fault of ours.

GRANTED LICENSE (Continued from page 1.) been construed by the supreme or appellate courts, and insofar as I am informed, no circuit court has passed upon the same, the proper construction to be placed upon this statute is not free from doubt, it will be observed that this section in several instances contains the word ‘ thereafter.” If this word refers to the election, then this board has no jurisdiction at this time to grant a license to any person, but if the word “thereafter” refers to the time of the order of the board declaring the result of the election, then and in that case the board may at this session grant a license to any person who has given the proper notice and shows the proper qualifications providing the same is done before the order is entered of record declaring the result of the election. If the first construction Is adopted and a license issued, such license would be invalid and the licensee could not recover the amount paid for license and he would be liable for each sale made, and if prosecuted under the Blind Tiger Act, upon conviction his property connected with the saloon would be confiscated. If the second construction is to be followed the person to whom the license is granted would have 90 days from the date of said election in which to close up his business.

In this case the board may pursue either of two courses: First, Refuse the license, from which action the applicant may appeal to the circuit court and have the matter determined. Second, Grant the license, from which action any citizen of the county mayappeal to the circuit court, provided, he shall comply with the la* by showing proper interest, or criminal proceedings may be commenced and a construction of the law be had. The probable result of granting the application: The person to whom the license is granted takes the chances upon forfeiting the SIOO.OO license /ee paid to the county treasurer; also of selling without a license and if convicted of having all of his property connected with the business confiscated and also be liable to fine and imprisonment If license is refused all saloons when license has expired must close at once. The question involved is an important one. not only to the general public, a majority of whom have voted to prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors, but to the persons whose property interests are at stake. I have thus indicated that the remedy of the parties interested will be, as well as to what the probable results would be should the law be construed by the courts contrary to the action of this board. Owing to the fact that as a citizen I have taken an active part in the recent campaign, I do not deem it my duty to indicate to the board my personal opinion as to the proper construction to be placed upon this statute, for such wouldtonfy be my opinion and not be supoprted by any author-

J tty. It would be unfair for me to attempt to influence the action of this board, under the circumstances, and it will be tor you as a board to use your own judgment in passing upon the applications pending, and when you have done that honestly and fearlessly the qitizens and the public will have no right to complain. If individual and the public have a remindividual an dthe public have a remedy, and if any must suffer (t will be those who have voluntarily placed themselves in a position to be prosecuted. Respectfully submitted. CLARK J. LUTZ, County Attorney. THEY PUT ONE OVER (Continued from Page One) the Daily Democrat) —The Democrats in both the house and senate, and especially in the house, are up on their toes, and with Governor Marshall. propose to make a finish that has been as yet unheard of in legislative circles. All measures that wear the brand of the Democratic platform, are marked for one grand rush. They propose to push all platform measures and put them up to the senate. o SOCIAL COLUMN (Continued from page 2.) guests were Miss Agnes Botthoff of Marion; Mr. Ed Cole of Columbia City, and Mr. Laman Cleveland of St. John, Michigan. • The Men's Club of the Presbyterian church will meet at the church parlors Wednesday evening. Special addresses and talks will be given. Good music will be rendered and refreshments served. The Mite Society of the Methodist church will be entertained at the home of Mrs. Dan Sprang on Madison street. • The Women’s meeting Saturday night at the Methodist church was well attended. Beside the women one hundred girls were present. The lecture was well delivered and the advice to girls and thir mothers excellent. The Missionary Society of the Methodist church will meet with Mrs. Roy Archbold at her home on Monroe stret Thursday afternoon. There was nt. meeting last week on account of the services at the church, but the regular meeting will be on next Thursday afternoon. A large number of children were present at the Saucer Breaking at the Methodist church. Ten saucers were broken, illustrating to the little folks in a material way the breaking of the commandments. o— BALDNESS UNKNOWN. One of the most prominent druggists in America made a statement a few weks ago which has caused a great deal of discussion among scientitsts in the medical press. He said: "If the new hair grower, Parisian Sage, increases its sales as it has during the past year, it will be used by nearly every man, woman and child in America within eight years. ' “And when Parisian Sage is used almost unversally, dandruff will disappear and with its departure bald THERE ,S ONE . YUJ ness, itching scalp, splitting hair and' all scalp diseases will follow and' twenty years from now a baldhead' will be a rarity.” There’s ony one way to cure dandruff and that is to kill the germ. There is only one hair preparation that will kill the germs, and that is Parisian Sage, it is guaranteed to cure dandruff, stop falling hair and itching of the scalp n two weeks, or money back. ... It is the most pleasant and invigcating tonic, and is not sticky or greasy.

I am the last person to be convinced/ After the man left the druggist remarked. ‘Root Juice is the greatest medicine on earth. People come In here and get ' a few bottles and in a few weeks they stop coming and when I see them they say they are cured.’ When asked what it cures, he said. “It seems to cure any trouble of the stomach.
