are especially exposed to the dangers of female organic disorders. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has enabled thousands of girls to hold their positions. Read what this girl says: Paw Paw, Mich.—“l suffered terribly from female ills, including inflammation and congestion, for several years. My doctor said there was no hope for me but an operation. I began taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and I can now say I am well.” — Emma Draper. And this girl: Indianapolis Ind.—“l suffered from a severe female weakness and got so bad that I believe I would have died if I had not obtained relief soon. One doctor said nothing would cure me but an operation. “My aunt advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound as it had done so much good for her. I did and found it to be the right medicine to cure female troubles and build up the system, and I am now in l>etter health than I ever expected to be.” —Bessie V. Piper, 29 S. Addison St., Indianapolis, Ind. Is it not reasonable to suppose that a medicine that did so much for these girls will do the same for any other girl who is suffering with the same troubles ? These testimonial letters are the genuine and truthful statements from honest people. Does it not seem the only sensible thing to give such a medicine at least a trial? You may be sure that it can do you no hann, and there is lots of proof that it will do you much good.

For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No sick woman does justice to herself who will not try this famous medicine. Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit. Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health free of charge. Address Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass.

SELECT A SEXTON John Chronister is Now Sexton for the Decatur Cemetery Association IS A GOOD MAN —- Many More Improvements Will Be Made at this Beautiful Burying Ground Am important meeting was held last evening by the trustees of the Decatur Cemetery association, the meeting being held for the purpose of selecting a sexton to take the place of Horace Botthoff, who for many years has had charge of the cemetery. Fourteen applications faced the trustees when they undertook to consider the matter of applicant, but in the face of this but one ballot was necessary to make possible the selection of John Chronister, who for some time has been working at the green houses of E. S. Moses. The new sexton is in every way qualified and will make the association a good man in a very important place. During the time that Mr. Bothoff has been in charge he has displayed care of the grounds and improved them in a very efficient way. The trustees have made great headway in the last several years and their cemetery grounds are becoming one of the most beautiful spots to be found any place. They intend to extend their energies and in the next few years to come the improvements will be more marked.

THE UPLAND BANK Applied for Receiver and the Bank is Closed PAY DEPOSITORS There Will Be Nothing Left to the Stockholders Marion, Ind., Sept. B.—E. M. White, assistant atorney general of Indiana, came to Marion this afternoon and filed an application in the circuit court for the appointment of a receiver for the Grant County State Bank at Upland, which failed to open its doors this morning. The state bank examiner. Charles W. Camp, who reached Upland early this morning, will have charge of the bank pending the hearing of the petition, which has been set for next Tuesday. While the stockholders will lose all the stock they own, amounting to $26,000, there probably will be enough money to pay all depositors in full. The deposits in the bank a few months ago reached more than SIOO,OOO, but they now amount to only $52,000. The bank experienced a sma'l run six weeks ago, and although It was checked after a few hours, tne fears of many of the depositors were not entirely allayed, and this resulted in a gradual dwindling of the deposits. In order to prevent a second and more serious run it was decided not to open the doors this morning. Excited men and women gathered about the door when they heard of the bank's failure to open. They were greeted by a notice that had been posted by the bank examiner to the effect that the bank was closed pending the appointment of a receiver. The bank is embarrassed because Charles W. Cole, former president. who has been absent from Upland since last May, loaned a large amount-of the bank's money to the Upland Glass company, now in the hands of a receiver, a concern in which he was interested. THE H. S. ATHLETES MEET The high school held a meeting last evening at he school and elected a captain and manager for their base ball and football teams for the coming season.
