WRITES A LETTER (Ooatlaaed from page 1.) She has a brother-in-law. a Mr. Willson, who is a cartoonist for Puck. Sne and her sisters live with their mother on a farm. She rides horseback quite often and wears a corduroy habit, divided skirt and bloomers and rides as all the better class of women do here. Two or three miles out from here is located “The Maine Club He use." It is the building which was occupied by the state of Maine representatives at the St. Louis exposition. and was bought by a syndicate of St. Louis capitalists and moved on to a large tract of land which is laid out artistically and set to fruit and flowers, and the building Is occupied as a summer resort. I, have not been out to it, but when the roads are better we expect, to go. They have a keeper and his wife in charge. I think from all reports I have escaped some execrable weather. Surely this has been a month of dreadful storms. It gets cold here for a day or two, then the sun comes out and it is all over. I was out on one of the hills last Saturday getting ferns to set in the yard. I am going again soon after more. I celebrated Washington’s birthday by setting a Missouri hen. I am very anxious to hear the result of yesterday’s election In Adams county. Am sorry I could not have been there to contribute my mite toward its success, but I gave thirty years of my life there in trying to create a sentiment against the accursed traffic, but when so many professedly Christian people don’t care to lend their aid. it is uphill business for reformers. While I do not think local option anything like the best way to get rid- of the evil, as it Is only temporary, yet I would have worked for it if I had been there as the only thing in sight. The blindness of politicians is Inexplicable. I

have been Interested in the proceedings of the Indiana legislature, but 1 do not see much evidence of the great reforms which were promised being carried out. One of the old parties is just as bad as the other “and worse.” What do you think of Roosevelt’s latest estimate of women? One would think to hear him talk about homeless and orphan children, and how they should be safeguarded and helped, that he does not know that the cause of ninety per cent of it all is the liquor traffic —but he never mentions it—nor has he in the seven years of his official life. But until the cause is removed —and he eould have done much to remove ft -the poverty and homeless condition of children will not be remedied. There is not the slightest prospect that Mr. Taft wil lever mention the subject nor that Bryan would if he had gotten there. If Christ's teaching were only better understood we would have braver Christians. Lowell says; "They enslave their children’s children, who make compromise with sin.” and how this has been verified in the liquor traffic, since 1862 when congress began to take a revenue from and give protection to it But this is injecting politics into the club

which some may consider a mortal offense. However I am so far away that nr never know what you think or say about it. I miss the meetings of the clubs more than I can tell you. We have no literary dubs here, but hope to organize a civic improvement association when 1 get a little better acquainted. Those to whom I have spcken seem to be in favor of it, and I think that is the most appropriate club for a new town. I fear this letter will not prove very interesting, but I have at least redeemed my promise. With dearest Jove to you each and all. Yours fraternally, « I M. 1.. HOLLOWAY. j o Democrat Want Ads. Pay

A STARTLING STATEMENT New York Medical Authorities Claim Dyspepsia Causes Consumption. The post mortem statistics oft the big New York hospitals show that seme cases of consumption are due to unchecked dyspepsia, especially when the victim was predisposed to tuberculosis. Dyspepsia wears out the body and brain, the weakened, itritabie stomach is unable to digest food, the body does not receive the required nourishment. constipation ensues and the victim becomes thin, weak and h »B* gard. As a result, the body becomes a fertile field for the germs of disease to lodge and flourish. Therefore, the person who permits dyspepsia to progress unhindered Is guilty to contributing toward the development of one of the- most insidicus and fatal diseases known to mankind. Dyspepsia is curable if properly treated. The Smith, Y’ager & Falk Drug Co. sell a remedy which they positively guarantee will cure indigestion or dyspepsia or they wll pay for all the medicine used during the trial. This remedy is an absolutely new medical discovery and has been named Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. Certainly no offbr eould be more fair, and the offer ot the Smith, Yager & Falk Drug Co. Is proof positive that Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are a dependable and infallible remedy. Inasmuch as the medicine will cost you nothing if It does not benefit you we urge you who are suffering with indigestion or dyspepsia to try this remedy. A twenty-five cent box of medicine for fifteen days’ treatment. Remember Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are only sold in Decatur by the Smith. Tager & Falk Drug Co.
