An effort to have every voter in Adams county who has not done so to register on October 7th, two weeks from today, is being made. It is the last chance and you should aid in the work. One or two men cannot accomplish this, and every citizen should be interested in this work. It is an effort to make the ballot box speak the will of the people and there is no just argument against it. While it works a hardship on some communities, it is absolutely necessary and as Mr. Adair said in his speeches, it is not probable that the youngest person in Adams conuty today will live long enough to see the law epealed. There is therefore nothing for you to do, but to register, unless you want to disfranchise yourself. You cant afford that, and you don't want to. We believe that every voter in Adams county should east his ballot next November for Lew Ellinngham for secretary of state. He is an Adams county citizen. During his term as that official he has made good, and he is deserving of a vote in this county that will endorse his work. He is your neighbor and friend, and no difference what your politics, he will do anything in reason to aid or accommodate you. It,is a big advantage that he should be your secretary o. state, and modesty shall not keep us from asking you to do so. He .3 the same old Lew that he was when he scribbled the editorials and items of news interest here. He is still your friend and as much a part of us as if he *as still on the job. We believe you owe him your vote, and shall not hesitate to ask that you give it to him, and upon merit. Vote for Lew Ellingham. , American democracy in its purity was intended to mean, and 1 believe does mean, something more than voting, some-thing more than selecting officers. Like the sunlight, we cannot see it, yet we cannot see without it. And like the sunlight, it has not only bathed th ; s republic in a -ea of beauty and glory, but it has warmed and nurtured every fruitage planted in the garden of universal brotherhood. American democracy does not depend upon caste or creed or condition, upon race or color, upon wealth or poverty, upon success or failure. But untiringly, it does depend upon the inner life of the individual citizen. It is an inspiration and an aspiration. It does - not always depend upon the ticket which a man votes. It does depend always upon the motive back of the

ballot.—From Governor Marshalls speech accepting the democratic nomination for vice president, August 20, 1912. Free fade! Free trade! Thus shouietii the hard-pressed republican and progressive papers and campaigners, And that condition is to be brought about .they cry, if Wilson is elected president. There Is nothing in" the democratic platform to that effect, nothing in Wilson's speech of acceptance to that effect, and it is very certain that the democratic party would not enact a free trade tariff law if it could. The purpose of all the noise is to frighten and deceive the people. The democratic party is proposing to revise the tariff laws of the country, just as the republicans and the progressives are proposing to do. Republicans promised to do this years ago, but they always revised the tariff upwards and the people have grown tired of that kind of revision and will let the democrats try it. But don't believe for a minute that there is to be any free trade right cway or any other time. — Columbia City Post. MUCH INTEREST Is Being Manifested in the Young Demonstration Now on in This City. STAYS ALL WEEK Has Headquarters at Holthouse Drug Store —Began There Last Saturday. Because c-f the great interest the people took in Young and the Harsbone root and herb plan of ridding the system of disease last Saturday at the Dollhouse urug store, and because he was unable tc meet a. large percentage of the sick who are anxious to have a talk with him, he was prevailed upon to stay here until next Sunday. Therefore, those who were disappointed in not meeting him last Satin day will haie an opportunity of doing so any time this week at th? drug store. Although Young was very busy last Saturday, explaining the Harshone medicine and producing proofs of its great merits, he found time to give out the following information for publication. “I am accustomed to meeting so many people who are in need of, and are anxious to take our great medicine. that the crowds which called to see me today were not a surprise. I know that here as elsewhere, are hundreds of ailing people who are badly in need of our Harshone roots and herbs, and that they will gladly take the great medicine when they hear me explain its merits, and let me produce the great bulk of evidence which is in my possession. I have great faith in our remedy. Why shouldn't I? I see hundreds who take it, but 1 never see one, who gives it a fair trial who does not praise it Har I shone cleans the stomach, liver, kid-. neys and bowels of all impurities, and 1 the great tonic, invigorating constitiiants of the remedy soon impart health action to those great organs of digestion and secretion. How can one be sick without a cause? When the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels are restored to healthy action, when those great organs work in harmony, any number of painful and disagreeable symptoms cease to exist because the cause has been removed. A dollar case of Harshone roots and herbs will be sold in this drug store for fifty cents, but the special price will not last long. Therefore, those who need health should call as soon as possible. I will be .glad to meet them, I will be glad to explain our remedy to them. I will be glad to prove all we claim.” - o IN MEMORIAM. Eva Scheumann, sick a week, died at their home, Friday, September 20th, at 3:40, We miss you from your place. Dear Eva, Wt see your vacant cot, We miss you in our home Dear Eva, We miss you everywhere. . Farewell, Dear, but not forever, For we shall meet again: Not in this world of pain and sorrow, But in that bright and happy land, Where pain and death doth come no more, But all is bright and fair, Where heartciies are all over, And there will be no vacant cot.

What a pity it is to see so many people with thin, wispy hair, faded or I streaked with gray, and realize that ' most of these people might have soft, ! glossy, abundant hair of beautiful co!or and lustre if they would but use | the proper treatment. There is no neI cessity for gray hair under sixty-five | years of age, and there is no excuse I for any one, young or old, having thin, j straggling hair, either full of dandruff or heavy and rank smelling with excessive oil. You can bring back the natural color of your hair in a few days and forever rid yourself of any dandruff and j loose hairs, and make your hair grow ! strong and beautiful by using Wyeth's i Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy. For ' generations common garden sage has I been used lor restoring and preservi ing the color of the hair; and sulphur is recognized by scalp specialists as being excellent for treatment of hair and scalp troubles. If you are troubled with dandruff | or itching scalp, or if your hair is losi ing its color or coming out, get a ■ fifty cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur from your druggist, and notice the improvement in the appearance of your hair after a tew days’ treatment. m-w ? s ATTENTION, DEMOCRATS! >5 ' Tuesday evening, Septem- | ber 24, at Democratic headquarters, meeting to organize Wilson and Marshall Marching Club.
