COURT HOUSE NEWS (Continued from page 1.) *205.85 less a mortgage of *933.27, leaving a net balance of *272.58. A marriage license was issued to George Hirschy, 21, a farmre, and Ida Biberstine, 17, both of Monroe township. JMt o BODY WILL ARRIVE TONIGHT Freeman Elzey Died at Olathe, Kan., and Will Be Buried Here. Gay & Zwick received a telephone message from New Bremen. Ohio, and later two messages from Olathe, Kansas, announcing that the body of Freeman Elzey would arrive over the Erie this evening, it being shipped from the latter named place in Kansas. No further word has reached the city from an source, but it is taken that Freeman Elzey is a brother of Mrs. Stone, now living in New Bremen, but who was a former Decatur young lady and a niece of Mrs. E. Woods. It is thought that Mrs. Stone will reach here at five o’clock over the Grand Rapids, and after that mere will be known about the death of Mr. Elzey, the details of which are meager a‘. this time. The Woods family have heard nothing from their niece, Mrs. Stone, but it is thought to be her brother, and they are looking for her on every train. o ■ . ■ ■ . . ■ WROTE HER NAME ON AN EGG And it Ended in Romance—Weds Adams County Man. Bedford, Ind., July 22.—A romance of an egg that led to a happy wedding has just become public. Miss Daisy Tallbott, who lived near Bono, a fair farmer girl, wrote her name and address on an egg, which was sold to a huckster. The latter shipped it and it fell into the hands of Joseph Palmer, of Decatur, Ind., who wrote to Miss Talbott, and she answered. Letters were exchanged often and in course of time a proposal of marriage was accepted by the young woman, which resulted recently in a wedding. The bridegroom is a we’l known young man of Decatur, and Miss Talbott is one of Lawrence county’s most estimable young women. 0 - .. .Ten barrels of glass tumblers for 2c each at The Racket store. 170-6 t

IAT HOPE HOSPITAL Davidson Mattox of Blue Creek Township. Submits to Operation IT WAS A SUCCESS It Will Be Two Weeks Before He Will Be Able to Leave the Hospital Davidson Mattox, one of the oldest and one of the best known citizens of Blue Creek township, is at Hope hospital, where he is recovering from a very serious yet successful operation. The accident leading up to the necessity of this operation occurred some twenty-five years ago, when he was hit upon the right side of his head with some metallic substance, and which for a time caused him to lose his hearmg. In time this defect was overcome, but last winter after a long siege with lagrippe, this affection appeared again, and after much suffering an operation was agreed to, and Mr. Mattox was taken to Hope hospital at Fort Wayne,where yesterday the same was performed. The operation developed an even more serious condition than was thought possible. An epidural abcess was formed just back of the ear, and this with all its malignant puss and diseased bone was removed, and it is now thought that Mr. Mattox will be entirely relieved from any further trouble. The operation was an exceedingly delicate one, and was performed by Dr. E. G. Coverdale of this city. It will be two weeks before Mr. Matox will be able to leave the hospital. o If people with symptoms of kidney or bladder trouble could realize their danger they would without loss of time commence taking Foley’s Kidney Pills. This great remedy stops the pain and the irregularities, strengthens and builds up these organs and there is no danger of Bright’s disease or other serious disorder. Do not disregard the early symptoms. Holthouse Drug Co.

PROPRIETARY MEDICINES PRESCRIBED BY DOCTORS. Examination of the formulary departments of leading drug stores throughout the country has proved that a very large percentage of the prescriptions filled for doctors are for proprietary medicines. This is because the average doctor of today is unable to devise prescriptions equally efficacious. Such standard remedies as Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound are prescribed over and over again by fair minded physicians throughout the country. MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS.
